Bala Baya Borough

This restaurant is a real standout. The staff are warm and professional, creating an atmosphere that feels both relaxed and refined. The food is the real highlight - every dish feels carefully thought out, full of unexpected flavors that actually work together. It is the kind of place that surprises you in the best way possible and leaves you wanting to come back soon.

The portions are tiny for the price. I ordered the brunch short rib doughnut, priced at £19 on the menu - it very small, starter size at best (I was charged £21 for it on the bill, which I unfortunately didn’t realise until after I’d paid or I’d have queried it). We also ordered cauliflower steak crumble - nice but £13 also steep. My partner ordered the salmon shawarma dish which featured an overcooked poached egg. The atmosphere and decor were nice, the food flavours were pretty good, but overall the price to portion ratio is so disproportionate that I left annoyed and hungry, despite spending £65 between 2 people (almost all of which was the three food dishes mentioned - we only ordered one non-alcoholic drink between us and otherwise drank water). Overall, I cannot recommend this restaurant

Great food, wonderful atmosphere and brilliant and attentive service! Food is superb and very delicious. I love that the dishes are creative and well presented. Tapas style is a wonderful idea and allows you to taste much more of the menu. I’ll be back soon for sure! Cannot wait to try the other dishes.
