This was our first time here at Balkan grill reservoir,family of 3 dined here for my husbands birthday. Food is fresh,it lacks flavour,we shared 3 main meals,one was rack of ribs,they were not melt in your mouth as they are not prepared the right way,they were just cooked straight on the grill with some sauce,ribs need to be slow cooked first then put on grill or boiled then grilled.we will probably give it another go as it’s a very friendly and clean place.
