• Steak • Roseville

If you're going to take your name from a badass like the patron saint of blacksmiths, you better be able to back it up. Baldamar marks the turning point where we usher in the new standard for style, service and steak. It means the menu’s made with old-world craft at its core and modern day meat eaters in mind — with flavors forged in fire and folded into pure primal perfection. It’s where every steak is aged 40 days and 40 nights for a taste of biblical proportion, and where crazy-fresh seafood means it was caught during your morning commute. At the bar sits every spirit imaginable, and someone who isn’t afraid to use them. This is more than a new steakhouse. It’s a line in the sand. It’s not just where you celebrate special occasions. It’s where you create them.*A 20% Service Fee is added to all groups of 8 or more.

We ordered bruschetta as an appetizer, very tasty! We both ordered the Rib-eye, I ordered garlic mashed potatoes with it and he ordered the horseradish mashed potatoes. Our meals got switched. So I got his potatoes. I didn’t even notice, just thought they were bland. Apparently there was horseradish placed on it in the middle. I asked my boyfriend how his potato’s were and he said they were good. I asked him to try mine….he got a mouthful of horseradish, probably no potatoes, haha. That’s when we figured out the switch up on the potatoes. Not a big deal, we just laughed it off. I didn’t get to try the garlic mashed, they must have been good cause there were none left on my boyfriend’s plate lol. Anyway, the sauce that comes with it was so amazing! It was like a garlic cream sauce. I am still craving more! It was good on the steak, veggies and potatoes. The steak was very good quality and cooked to Medium Rare perfection. Definitely worth the $55 each. Our waiter, Clayton, was so professional and excellent. Overall a very pleasant experience! I’m sure we will be back in the future.

The food was flavorful and delicious! What a nice change from other local restaurants that persist in over-salting their dishes. It was also nice that the background music was just that—background, not deafening, no thumping bass. We look forward to our next date night at Noa!
