Hostess and Manager refused to make accommodations for our family and disabled daughter who needed a lower table. The time was 4:30 and the restaurant was basically empty. Many of the lower tables were reserved but not the majority of them.
Was excited to try this place. Grabbed lunch with a group on a slow weekday afternoon. Place looks cool inside and out. Fun tunes, service was attentive and efficient. Drinks good, beer cold. But...the food kind of missed across the board. Double cheeseburger was overcooked and missing flavor. Caprese sandwich was severely lacking in mozz. Italian sub had quality meats and toppings, but was small with so-so bread. Pizza and curds were ok. All in all, left a little disappointed especially given the prices.
Might be a better evening spot, possible our menu choices weren't the best, or maybe an off day. Just didn't hit today, will give it another shot next time I'm in the area.
Friendly environment and amazing staff.
Amazing atmosphere and better employees must goto restaurant in the area
The Ballston Local is simply fantastic, the ownership and staff are all incredible!! Bartenders Louie, Bree, Maddie, Sophia, and Carey are just simply the very best of the best!! The Ballston Local name is so indicative of the local atmosphere that permeates the establishment where everyone in the area (and visitors) can come enjoy a great happy hour or evening of fun. The food and service is top notch, and I'm so happy that I found this place! I highly recommend the Ballston Local to everyone of all persuasions and backgrounds.

The worst quality place I've ever been to, if there was a zero score I'd give it that. Tasteless food and low quality venue and people

Hip little restaurant with a great selection of food. The short rib poutine was flavorful, but was lacking in the short rib side, with very little beef actually in the dish, and heavy on the gravy side.

Great pizza and reasonable beer prices. FYI this is a Virginia Tech bar so their games are broadcasted when on and it gets packed
Excellent place

From Ohio grew up in Virginia was able to find a awesome spot in a tough time. Slices of pizza are amazing as well with chili on hotdogs or nachos. The Boy got wings and sliders and can't get any better anywhere else. Will be my go to anytime I am in town.
