I couldn't get the reference to Rocky Balboa, but then again, who cares? We tried the roast chicken and it was pretty good. If you have a large group and can't decide on what to order, get the chicken
Would come back for the baked chicken ! Servers were friendly , and the food was prompt. The pancetta , apple , and ricotta pizza was good; makes me curious about the other pizza flavors!
Cucumber Pineapple Shake , Osso Bucco Milanese, Prosciutto Mushroom and Arugula Pizza and Seafood Lemon Tagliatelle are really good. Service is also impeccable. :)
The Saint Germain (spinach & artichoke dip ) served with pull-apart bread was a tasty appetizer . The freshly-baked bread was a good complement to the dip .
This balboa pizza is a must-try! Baby-back ribs + camembert cheese in mozzarella . Delish! ????
Thumbs up! ???????? Short ribs , tenderloin, pasta , drinks, etc. All good! I highly recommend.
Their short ribs took so long but was definitely worth the wait ;)
Risotto ... Good! Steak ... Good! Mac & cheese with truffle oil ... Ngek! Overall rating... Not bad at all! :)
The service is friendly . The osso bucco is meh. But the husband enjoyed his raviolli. Would have loved to review their cocktails but they were sold out when we arrived.
Brunch buffet , weekends for 589 pesos. My brunch came with white wine .. free :)
Big servings ! Try the Spinach Prosciutto Truffle pizza . So good!
The roast chicken is divine! A definite must for family dinners . Trust me. ;)
The pesto was great! I would also recommend the oysters !
Spinach truffle pizza is really good! love the crust!
Must try: Fresh Spinach Tagliatelle ????????
The spinach and prosciutto pizza is delightful; Avoid the beef ravioli .
Try their Oysters Rockefeller !! Mouth-watering goodness ;)
Salted Caramel and Halibut with Mushroom Risotto . Divine.
The Spinach Artichoke dip is a must try!
must try : US tenderloin with Brie and mushroom ????
Hit and miss. The only dish the kids loved was the oysters .
Braised US Shortribs in Tomato , Balsamic & Gorgonzola FTW!
Try their Balboa Signature Pizza ...love it!
Ordered the Monroe salad and was disappointed that it was served without the dried figs ! The figs would have justified the Php488 price for the family-sized serving.
The Salted Caramel drink is yummy.
Parmesan French Toast . Simply delish!!!
I recommend the Balboa Signature Pizza .
Wanted to try Parma Ham Egg Benedict but was told it will take 15minutes. Next time when I'm not so hungry.
The pizzas & pastas !
Dear servers, next time maybe you should repeat your customer's order so they don't end up waiting for something you failed to list down. We waited for 20mins only to find out our server dint list it.
The Southwestern dry rub chicken was much too spicy for our taste.
Great food, ambiance and service. ????
Place was almost empty but service was still bad. We availed of the free Van Gogh using BPI credit card but when we got the bill, said menu item was charged to us.
The pasta is worth coming back to
Pizzas and steaks .
Forget about their tiramisu .
Uhm.. HOT waitresses . LOL
The Memphis dry-rub U.S. shortplate? Another disappointment! Bland!
mmmm steak
Weekday service is slower than slow.
Seafood lemon tagliatelle !!! ❤️❤️❤️
Worth coming back! ????
After 2 recent misses, I found another dish that I love and recommend. Try their On Top of Spaghetti, soooooo good!!! - Mary Maizie Carlos
Order the spinach dip and truffle pasta!! And pick limonata (made with sparkling water) over the fresh lemonade :) - Rachel Abreu
BonChon chicken is incredible! Crispy on the outside and tender juicy inside :) - Neil
August special flavor is Hello Kitty! It's a delish vanilla yoghurt flavor which blends well with pretty much any other flavor. :D Try it with strawberry. :) - Daal Liza
Sakura Sakura tea is one of the best green tea! Must try! - Khen Punsalan
