We went back, hoping that there’d been a chef change. Maybe somehow the restaurant had returned to its early glory. But no, we will find a different New Year’s Eve tradition going forward.

Excellent lasagna pasta. Didn’t buy bread for the table for $10-too expensive. I really wanted bread with my pasta., but not paying $10.

Incredible experience at Ballo on New Years Eve! This is preference and situation dependent, but the service was exceptionally fast. We were seated 10 minutes before our reservation and got appetizers, entree, drinks, dessert, and espresso all within 45 minutes. Some may prefer to have a slower dinner and I am sure they would accommodate this request, but Ballo is run like a fine tuned machine and I appreciate their attention to detail and exceptional service. The food was amazing and the cocktails were tasty. No complaints!

Food was good but not the greatest as claimed. We are vegetarians and asked few modifications and no changes were made in the order. That disappointed us a bit for fine dining level.

We had dinner before a concert. Our waiter was attentive and food came out quickly. We got the burrata and Caesar salad for apps. For dinner we got a 8oz filet, truffle ravioli, chicken parm and Double R Ranch Prime New York Strip. They sent out 2 mini cannoli for my mother birthday and Everyone really enjoyed their meals!
