Waited 1.5 hours for food and they never put in our order. Owner had the audacity to give us a 10% off coupon. Avoid this place at all costs!!! The owner’s response to my review is ridiculous for the situation!. Got there at 628pm left at 801pm. The waitress was at our table 3x giving sweet teas and beer. No excuses! 10% off is ridiculous. Our time is irreplaceable! Again avoid spending your hard earned dollars here. Take friends, family somewhere more worthy!

Been more frequently visiting and each time I like it more and more. If you're looking for a great spot to have a drink and grab a bite this is a great place to do it!

It was our first visit here and met up with a musician friend that’s a fan of this place. I was surprised at the wide variety of the menu. Very creative and elevated bar food with nice presentation and flavors. The service was first class and friendly.I did find the parking lot a little dicey. The interior is a little dated,but surfaces were clean. We will certainly come back. I’ve played music in a lot of bars, but didn’t eat at them because a lot of bars don’t have it together in the kitchen. The Balcony has quality intentions, and I’ve seen that at very few bars I’ve been to.Parking: See review

Quite pleased with the food! Wait staff did great but kitchen seemed to be running a bit slow the day we were there. Wouldn't mind if things were a bit cleaner, but overall a good experience.

This past weekend our family celebrated a milestone birthday at The Balcony. It was my first time at The Balcony, as I came from the other side of the state. The whole experience was excellent and the owners personally visited with us and our guests and clearly cared about how it was going. Their entire staff showed care and compassion and professionalism throughout. Food was good and beautifully displayed. Very nice place! Thank you Balcony staff! Wish you continued success.

Stop for lunch and was the worst meal ever. Got the fish sandwich and it was dry and burnt at the ends. It was like they put it in the microwave and just heated it up. My husband is a vegan so he had to get a grill cheese sandwich. Two slices of bread and one slice of cheese. Never again.

Had the taco Tuesday meal, was incredibly disappointed. Wait time was over an hour for mediocre dining. Food was under seasoned, overcooked and generally unappealing. The bartender/server was only redeeming quality of this establishment.

My partner and I are not picky people. and this experience was pretty disappointing to say the least. Long wait, bad drinks, even worse food.

Stopped for lunch on a weekday. We were one of the first and only tables here so we received full attention from the waitress/bartender. Nice lady - took our drink order and we looked over the menu. They have plenty of options from traditional bar food to some different entrees - but with it being lunch on a weekday I decided for something more standard. Ordered the Buffalo chicken wrap with sweet hot as my tender sauce, and Mac and cheese as my side dish. The food came out somewhat quickly. The wrap however was very sparse in terms of the amount of chicken in it - I would say between the two halves of the wrap there may have been one? tender cut up. The sweet hot sauce was good - more on the sweet side but good. The mac and cheese side came in a very large bowl by side standards - and on first first I figured it would be a white cheese stronger flavor. However - the cheese didn't really have any flavor at all. I usually polish anything out in front of me, but found that this needed some sort of seasoning and or cheese flavoring. Could have been a bad batch and not their usual output. Service was good, food was ok. Would try again - definitely worth a trip. Just would like to see more in the wrap and flavor in the cheese.
