Amazon experience. We saw Magic Mike and the show ran over so we ended up sitting in the bar for dinner. The bartender was fabulous and we had a wonderful dinner.

We dined there for our wedding celebration dinner. The server (Taylor) was outstanding. Very personable, had good knowledge of the menu and was very attentive. The food was very good although the Sea Bream entree was very small. They acknowledged the fact we were married that afternoon. They comped us some Prosecco and a gelato dessert to help us celebrate. We will return.

Enjoyed our dinner. Attentive service and really great white pizza, arugula salad, and meatballs. We had Reposado espresso martinis for cocktails, they were sooo good. Would recommend Balla!
