   Been to Baldamar many times and it never disappoints. Service is always outstanding. If you like dessert, get the chocolate cake!

   Service was amazing, food outstanding, wonderful experience. 100% worth the price tag, which is not small.

   We had high hopes for our dinner at Baldamar, given the excellent reviews and what we could see of the room and menu online. I must say, the room did not disappoint and we were greeted by very pleasant and competent wait staff and were well taken care of throughout the night (though the waiter did smash an empty wine glass on our table, but that was the only service blemish I could think of, aside from the interesting fact that all the staff who were in charge of selling dishes were white men, and all the staff who brought and cleared the food were not, this might have been a coincidence) and we enjoyed our pleasant corner booth. However, the food was consistently below par. Our starters were fine (Calamari) and poor (Panzanella, the bread was boring and not crispy, the flavour relatively bland, and the portion very meagre - i.e. roughly 3 slices of a tomato - for a $15 salad). The steaks themselves were relatively poor, especially considering they costed $49-60 each. Mine was overcooked - more medium or even medium/well done than medium rare, which I only realised when I reached the middle and the meat's colour never left the middling pinks, so to speak. Admittedly I should have sent it back straight away, but kept hoping I would find rarer bits, but th others were better cooked. But even then, the meat was not especially flavoursome The crab on top was shredded meat and not particularly nice, the béarnaise was quite bland, and the asparagus was not adequately trimmed and thus quite woody. The Brussels sprouts and artichokes were unimaginative and overpriced, but the lobster Mac and cheese was very well made. The chocolate cake was a stand out, and was given for free when I mentioned my steak was overcooked (again, good service). The drinks were fine, especially the non-alchololic cocktail, but the wine was not particularly delicious. Overall we were very disappointed by the various let downs in the food, which is not what we hoped for in a $120 a-head meal.

    First time here. We loved it. Food was really good. Waiter also was really good. It was our anniversary. They gave us a sweet card with a $15.00 gift certificate and they brought us a free (and delicious) dessert. So nice. The atmosphere was nice too. Darkly romantic, intimate, cozy. We had a lovely evening and will be back.

    Lindsay was a wonderful server. When my 1/2 lobster came and had a few pieces of lobster from the tip of the claw, she went back to the kitchen and brought me more lobster. She also apologized. My husband and I have been to Baldamar many times and this was the only time that I had to complain. We are going back on May 22nd to celebrate my birthday and I’m sure it will be a lovely experience.

    Went for Sunday Brunch. Food and ambiance were amazing. It was our first time visiting and we'll most definitely be back. We booked a reservation for the bar as the restaurant was full, but unbeknownst to us this included a booth. Our server Asia was very kind and efficient.

    Though the steaks seemed a little overpriced, the sides and desserts more than made up for the difference. Every dish was packed with exceptional flavor, and the service was superior.

    We ate on the patio for a celebratory dinner following my commencement ceremony. The patio had plenty of room for our party of 6 - and had a much quieter ambiance than inside. Everything from the drinks to the apps and entrees were delicious. Overall a very pleasant evening.

    Celebrated our wedding anniversary with close friends who were also celebrating their anniversary. Food was delicious tasting with nice presentation & hot when served. We appreciated the $15 coupon given to both comes to use when dining at Baldamar again. Both couples received complimentary desserts which were outstanding!

    The best service and food! Brought my mom to celebrate her retirement and they gave her a card and a discount for her next visit, so thoughtful and a pleasant surprise! I’m a pescatarian so I don’t eat meat but I love all the options they have that I can eat. I’ve been a few times, and all the sergeants, hosts, and management have always been exceptionally attentive and kind. And they always give the best recommendations when I’m not sure what to order to eat or drink. Great place for a bite or drink day and night, for all occasions!

    This was our first time going. The atmosphere is beautiful, we were seated right away even though we got there a little early, and we were seated in a perfect little corner. Our server Andrew was really awesome, super knowledgeable and gave excellent recommendations in addition to being very attentive and on top of everything. The other employees I came in contact with were so kind and wonderful. Literally everything we ate was spectacular and we can’t wait to be back for brunch!

    Food and service was really good. There was a bit of a wait for bar drinks. Ambiance in restaurant is really life and relaxing. Only complaint is main food option for dinner is steak and there are pretty limited options beyond steak. Good for me and my son, but the wife and daughter were not as excited for steak.
