    We had an early dinner slot, so the restaurant was quieter than elsewhere on the strip — BUT this was a nice change after some busy days. Also, the service was wonderful, and the FOOD! My sister got the truffle Mac and loved it — I had the spaghetti with ragú sauce, which was DELICIOUS. Large portions and good value!

    The food was excellent and our service was the best. The restaurant has a beautiful atmosphere. We were seated in a very nice table by the three fold windows which were open due to the gorgeous night!

    We booked after seeing a local half price special for four of their steaks on their menu. When we arrived, the waiter told us that only one - the most e pensive steak was half price. One of the worst bait and switches I’ve seen in Las Vegas. Shame on this restaurant and their deceptive advertising.

    Outstanding service, our server built a great rapport with us, gave us excellent suggestions on the menu and drinks and overall just really shaped our experience. All the portion sizes were very generous and the tiramisu was to die for.

    This restaurant should be the favorite for all locals. Service (by Casey) is fantastic! The new menu they have is amazing! If you are local you are truly missing out on this gem. Everyone we take here loves Balla. Hats off to Victor and his staff. We will be back again and again!!
