Reviews for Balzem in New York, NY

Really cute restaurant! We got some appetizers and salads for dinner. The ambiance of the restaurant is great. The babaganoush... was smoking tasting, which isn't my favorite but it's pretty standard. The burrata was delicious and both salads were tasty. Igot the quinoa salad with tuna and my friend got the Lazzoni Sea Shepherd. Read more
We were food touring, so we were only trying a few small items on the menu. We had the shrimp artichoke dip, the branzini... ceviche, and the crevette grill. The dip was rich and cheesy. The ceviche was light and fresh. The crevette grill was pairedwith arugula dressed in lemon juice olive oil and salt. It complimented the grilled shrimp well. I'd go back to have a meal. Read more
Decent Mediterranean spot - the tapas are great, we had the breakfast platter, the fruit platter, the burrata, the spicy feta,... the artichoke dip and the Mac and cheese. Barring the spicy feta, the dishes were delicious and fairly filling without beingloaded. Servers are nice and welcoming. Went for their outdoor dining - great food and service. Highly recommend the octopusand the shrimp appetizers! Read more
Fantastic food, and very friendly staff! Specially the girl from Cratia (forgot her name). I wasnt sure which wine I wanted to... drink so she brought over my top choices for a quick taste and provided great recommendations. The zucchini cake, branzino andlamb chops were amazing! Will definitely go back soon Read more
Great serendipity! Chose it because of the number of high reviews and it was a thousand points that night taurant on an early... summer evening. Open air view of the street, busy with good people and good conversation, flowers on the table, deliciouschicken and steak brochette, wonderful service, and all in all a highlight! I highly recommend it! Read more
Very cozy place. Although the dinner menu ( small plates) wasn’t too fascinating(not many options to choose from). Def a... unique menu. Liked their zucchini pancakes. The shrimp dish was a show stealer.. it’s a must do dish. They have a great winelist. The server talked very fondly of their desserts. We were all full so couldn’t try but I am assuming that their dessertsare great ???? Read more
Hard to describe how much I love this place. The food is always so delicious, perfectly portioned, well-priced, seasoned to... delight and ALWAYS consistent. (The octopus is the best in the city - crispy, grilled, seasoned. Their cocktails are great too!)Came here w the parents in 2016, came back for a birthday party w the girls a year later, have had great one on ones w friendsand romantic date night dinners - and across all those different vibes the atmosphere here has always been warm, inviting, andthe candles lit low. (Decor is great / lighting great for photos!) We met the owner (Harzam?) and his friends on our most recentSaturday night, and they even treated us to a round. Thank you! We love this place and hope it stays forever! Good places likethis are hard to find! Read more
