Halal Reviews for Bala Baya Borough

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.

Outstanding sharing plates and creative flavour combinations! Clever and thoughtful approaches to classic dishes. My friend and I shared 2 small plates and 2 large plates. We thought the ceviche and the cauliflower were particularly stand-out dishes with creative textures and spices. I also really loved the feta + apricot starter, it was such a fun, fresh dish. Their house-made sodas were fantastic and perfect on a hot London afternoon, highly recommend the mango & coconut soda. Underrated spot, will definitely be back!

Had a great evening here with friends. We ordered hummus, pita, nuts, bagel, cabbage, cauliflower, prawns, chicken, fish ceviche, as well as two desserts. The small and medium dishes were all great. The desserts weren’t really to our taste. It was a bit noisy and hot upstairs so we asked to be moved outside. Beware it if rains. Staff were all friendly and ready to look after you.

Second visit to Bala Baya and it was as delicious as the first. The small plates are delicious, and manage to be both light and filling . The hummus breakfast was a favourite among my group, with creamy hummus, chick peas, and warm pita. The mini mess aubergine dish had great flavour, especially from the sweet onions. Cocktails were well made, and our server was friendly and attentive, keeping a fresh water bottle on our table throughout and bringing a small extra on the house. I strongly recommend this for anyone who likes mezzo food.
