Reviews of Brasserie Balzac

Then you have opened a new restaurant with very nice decor (considering how the venue looked like before). We were the night it opened. Has tested many, many restaurants in town and around the world. This evening we got chansade and in all cases the place to test the new place at 6.30 pm Friday night. However, we just sit around if we could finish before 20:00. The first thing we thought about was the music that was tremendously strong for a restaurant with a bar at the time. I measured the volume up to about 85 to 90 db in my little mobile app (poor staff). We ordered a bottle of red and a Rib and a fillet of beef. I am not a mushroom lover, so I asked if I could change champinjonragun to something else, such as French fries. It was possible to arrange. The food comes in at ok time. Entrecôten is good and quite hefty. Served with a green salad and fries and a seasoned herb butter (which tastes a bit like Café de Paris). Fillet of beef, on the other hand, is very boring. I think it's the worst steak I have eaten. It was thin and probably utbankad. Cooked too stressful and tasted more like a vakumpackad tenderloin from long gone or a bad Sirloin steak from the supermarket. It was sad quite easily. We got French fries to both rights (because I opted out of the sponge). It was the usual dull variant which I guess are purchased complete from Matsäljarna. At this type of restaurant would of course love to have French fries they made on their own and no one dozen to be heated. In addition, resting my beef tenderloin on a bed of mushrooms that look like ordinary burkchampinjoner as been heated with soya to get some dark color (Yes, my partner provsmakade dom). But I got my mushrooms that I had opted out. In addition, it was a foie gras (which I think they called seared foie gras on the menu) on top of meat scraps. I really don't know exactly what it was, but it tasted not as something in the vicinity of foie gras I've eaten before. It was more like something that is mixed up with a lot of other things and tasted more pith than foie gras. When the waiter asked what we thought, so we answered that Entrecôten was good, but the fillet of beef was very dull. "Oh, sorry", it received in reply. Nah, it was night and stressed staff. But it was not ok. It was not good. It wasn't as good as it should be at a restaurant. I had made better food at home ... and I'm not a chef. I usually put it as required. That, if I go out and eat it should simply taste better than when I do it myself. But this evening it had failed. Probably because the raw material was not top class. Perhaps we did as best as we could in the kitchen, but it was not something I would give even 3 stars. Hope you have better you before I show up again. If you want to choose authentic French food, then there's La Facille a few blocks away that hold much higher class or the French on the other side of Sveavägen. And good meat can be bought around the corner on Lennart & Brother.

After about 1 week of opening still has some to Brasserie Balzac download up.
This is really a French brasserie, makes me think of a favorite from Paris which has existed for 100 years and are cult in Paris. Great atmosphere, good service and good brasserie jaw. The price level is quite OK. Do you like oysters, hearty stew, fillet of beef with foie gras and chocolate mousse, then this is the right place.

I really want to love this place. The venue is a direct copypaste from Balthazar NYC-what's not to love that as well. Although the food was good so I had much higher expectations, I can, however, be a little lenient because they opened for a little over a week ago ...

Neat place. I ate a fish that was wonderful. My husband ate Entrecoten and was very happy too. Knowledgeable staff and friendly. Worth a detour for us

After my third visit feels like I can deliver a fair score. Big, nice room with a good pulse and noisy environment. Perfect for dinner with a group of friends and, perhaps, less ideal for family dinner where Grandma and Grandpa are with, the sound level is quite high. The food in itself is not a wow experience, it is tasty and absolutely flawless, but here is not primarily for food's sake but for the atmosphere. Always a good service must of course be added also. It is also suitable for taking a drink in the bar before going out!

Fantastiskt mat och bemötande

Maten var så där. Ingen barn meny. Tog lång tid att få in allt vi beställde. Verkar som att de hade glömt bort vår beställning. Personalen är förvirrad och stressad.

Bästa råbiffen i stan!

Otrolig lokal som tyvärr inte leva upp i service och mat. Fick först fel beställning sedan okokta potatisar. Inget större problem om det hade rättats till. Istället säger restaurangchefen "hörru, jag har smakat potatisen och det var inget fel" (öhhh som det säger något om potatisen som serverats till vårt sällskap om 6 pers)... vi blev direkt förnedrade av personalen.

Gillar konceptet och Paris-känslan, tänker på Balthazar i New York och är nog främst därför jag går dit! Bra brasserie, trevlig uteservering och god mat - men går inte dit för maten, utan kanske mer för bubblet och stämningen!

The staff were very friendly and helpful.

För er som är allergiska: Detta är inte en resturang som kan hantera det professionellt. Fick en väldigt ofräsch omelett till middag, trots information om allergier i god tid inför bokningen.

Nice place that is beautiful with good food and okay service. I was actually considering giving a 3a because our dinnerware did not know at all. He was dizzy, forgot little things and for some reason did not come up with our food when we ordered, but "let us sit and talk for a while" very strange. Had not had an eye on the wine list and dropped a little too much things. Of course that a couple of cutlery can slip out of the hand, but several and also a glass is a bit well. I think he had a very bad day, because he was really not rude, just did not pay attention.

I took the talked-about Råbiffen. I love tartar so expectations were high. Well, yes. It is approved but I did not come to seventh heaven. Sure it's fancy and taste but for me it was too coarse ground and I'd love not to have the capers in. Always good with deep fried for crunch but poor salad, would have been better to ignore it. Should you be hard, it would have needed a little more love.

Otherwise, the room is very lovely, the outdoor serving is nice and I love that it is two-piece with smoke-friendly and non-smoking!

I will definitely come back, but then I'll probably take something else on the menu.
