Fantastic dining experience. Service and food were superb. It’s a small restaurant in a charming converted schoolhouse. Staff were attentive and friendly. The one negative is the noise level. If you’re looking for a quiet dining experience this might not be the right fit. For me, this is a great choice to take someone for a special occasion or someone visiting from out of town.

if you order some of the atypical brunch and lunch items we found out- when we drooled at our next table’s endive shrimp salad and salmon with salad tower, so be sure to ask about the dishes that show the talent and creativity of the chef. Everything at Baldanza is charming, class and delicious - except the ear breaking acoustics that diminish the enjoyment and is not relaxing when your ears are buzzing and your throat hurts from shouting to be heard by your friends. It’s a wonderful escape - the quality is superb out in the beautiful historic ‘hood and landscape. We do hope they can do something to the ceiling and floors to lessen the ear suffering.

Second time I’ve been here for brunch only to find out when we order that the veggies burger is not available, which was the whole reason we came here in the first place. It’s a great restaurant with wonderful staff, but this problem really needs to be fixed.
