    My husband and I had lunch at Baldamar for the first time. We were very impressed with the professionalism of the staff! Our server was friendly and knew the menu inside and out. My husband loved his prime rib sandwich! I enjoyed the harvest salad and sweet potato fries. The chipotle aioli that accompanied the fries was also very flavorful. We ordered the brussel sprouts based on our server’s recommendation and they were also very tasty and crispy. We appreciated the attention to detail in the way the cocktails were served in quality glassware with nice garnishes. The menu has a great variety overall but I’d have loved to see a few more vegetarian entree options. Something heartier than soup or salad.. The overall ambiance of the restaurant is great.. definitely upscale vibe and the menu prices reflect that. Definitely a great restaurant for a date night or dinner with friends! However, due to higher prices on menu items we’d save Baldamar for special occasions.

    We had a wonderful brunch on New Year’s Day, our server was so friendly and the Eggs Benedict and Walleye Hashbrowns that we chose from the menu were both excellent. We love Hell’s Kitchen for the festive ambiance during the Holidays and the food and service have always been great when we’ve come no matter what time of year!

    First time here. Very well prepared food. Service was on point. Drinks and wine selection are extensive and delicious. The space is kind of strange layout. Value was not great but still fantastic meal.
