Balboa

Dec 13th...I passed this restaurant so many times while I lived in Bklyn. We celebrated my sister's birthday. He accommodated 6 of us without a reservation. There was a big party of ladies having brunch. I had avocado toast with potatoes and scrambled eggs.A did house salad came with it. Had a side of Mac and cheese. My Sangria was really good. I had to take home most of my meal. I look forward to going again when in the area. GI-GI

This is definitely a late post, but a necessary one. Balboa Restaurant is a staple in the Crown Heights community. The owner owns his building, which allows him to provide good quality and quantity food at a very affordable price. This was the first time I've gone for brunch, and the food was delicious! Everything was made fresh to order and well seasoned. I am definitely going back again.

I was lead to try this location , being that I've past it many times , going to school. I looked at the reviews and they seemed good. I ordered the grilled salmon, kale and macaroni and cheese. It was delicious and the drinks were astounding. My only complaint was the service the women servers lack interpersonal skills, also there is somewhat of a language barrier. After, I paid my bill totaling $51.42 which included a 20% tip automatically. I paid $51.00 My service was not worth that so I didn't want to leave the 42 cents. Granted I may have been being petty, my server went to cash me out and noticed it was missing and came back for it, then my server and he coworker was staring and talking about me in their language. "What," that was going towards your tip that I was forced to pay

I enjoyed the brown stew chicken and the margaritas. It was good, I wasnt blown away but it was food. The portion was a pretty good size too.

Never disappoints! Food is amazing; my sister and I love coming here for dinner. The salad dressing is to die for (AND it’s house made!) *just don’t forget that 20% tip is already included because I always do😅. Maybe they should mention it to customers
