    amazing spot, known as a local legend. I will be back to try their infamous espresso martinis

    I was excited to try Balboa Café, especially since it’s known for having some of the best espresso martinis in the city. The espresso martinis were smooth and well-balanced.

    Unfortunately, the food didn’t quite match the same standard. I had the salmon, which lacked flavor, and the paella was just average. Another downside was the cleanliness — the table we were seated at had a noticeably dirty tablecloth, which was disappointing and took away from the overall dining experience.

    Great for drinks, but the food and attention to detail could use some improvement

    Went here for dinner with my wife and in-laws and loved it the service was impeccable our server Carla was great she was attentive friendly and gave great recommendations even gave us recommendations for cocktail bars to go to. For being really busy the food and drinks came out very quickly and was spectacular. Highly recommend the short rib and the paella if you go on a Thursday night when they make that dish!
