    Two appetizers and 2 martinis and 2 wines and 4 beers $160….who can eat a dinner? It might be worth it, but it’s not. So many better choices in the area. We were 4 people and we couldn’t even talk to each other because it was so loud. We were screaming like we were in a bar. There are so many other way cool restaurants nearby. I ordered the fish and chips. Very good. But again, you can go across the street and get the exact same fish and fries for $18…at Balmoral, I paid $34. Why? My husband ordered the duck legs, and he said they were not very good, but he did say the mashed potatoes were amazing. We most likely will not go back.

    The food was very good and the ambience was great. We went because we had a gift certificate but we would definitely go back for a special occasion. The bagpipe player was a cool touch as well as the Bone China place settings and crystal glassware. It made for a unique dining experience. The bread was awesome!

    Balmoral is such a special place. The food is delicious. The service is top-notch. This is it was our third time eating here and it’s never disappointed. The salmon, the beef Wellington, the drinks everything was perfect, perfectly executed and delicious and the service is a true dining experience.

    Lipstick on the water glass was a very bad start to the evening. Service was a tad slow. Food was good

    We celebrated our wedding anniversary at Balmoral, and as usual they did not disappoint. The Scottish experience began with the familiar bagpiper at the door. The restaurant decor, rustic furniture, staff uniforms, and fine china all provided an air of old world authenticity that we have not found elsewhere this side of the pond. The “bevvy” menu featured a wide array of drink options, including of course an extensive selection of scotch whiskey. I was in the mood for a pub dish and ordered the Bangers and Mash, a hearty plate served with a side of broccolini. I immediately decided this will be my new go-to. My wife’s roasted salmon was moist and delicious with just the right amount of citrus and spice. We will certainly be back!

    We had friends in from out of town. The drinks were good, as were the appetizers. The main courses had too much salt for my friends and staff replaced the sides. My pork chop was ok but had a good deal of fat which turned me off. Service was nothing special and they were far from busy.

    Balmoral is the restaurant that my son and I meet for our birthdays. My son likes to try adventuresome foods like haggis and rabbit. I like the salmon options they have. Our waitress was very pleasant and accommodating (they even brought out a little birthday dessert for my son's birthday). Elegant decorations and the presentation keeps true to its Scottish roots. I think that the only thing I would say contrary about Balmoral is that their prices are very high, We'll be back for my birthday.
