The servers and front of house workers are pleasant and eager to help. The restaurant is rather small with very little seating and a small bar. I had a group of 7 for our Supper Club and they took us shortly after opening so that they could better serve us. Our waitress was super helpful with suggestions and answered any questions that we had about the menu. She was helpful and accommodating, not to mention patient with all of our questions! We indulged in multiple appetizers, different entrées, and even dessert. Here's my review of each part of the meal: Smoked Chicken Pierogies: These pierogies were different and delicious. They were super flavorful, but they were unique and worthy of trying! Foccacia: I cannot say enough good things about their foccacia. It was perfectly soft and plump and included 3 unique dipping sauces that blew me away: red pepperonata, whipped ricotta pepper honey, and pomegranate molasses. I couldn't believe how good all of it tasted! Mustard Glazed Salmon: This dish came with butternut squash hummus & grains. The salmon was cooked perfectly and flavored well with the mustard. I didn't love the grains and the hummus was underwhelming, but it was a unique dish. Blackberry & Pumpkin Crepes: These Crepes were flavorful and delicious. The pumpkin was not overly spiced up so this was a perfect light dessert to end our meal. The blackberry Crepes weren't as flavorful but delicious and nice to try. Other people in my group had the fall lasagna, diver scallops, pub burger, and bolognese, and all dishes got rave reviews! I also had a Pumpkin Espresso Martini. The flavor was great. I was disappointed in the overly salted rim and the lack of espresso beans on top, but I'd drink it again because it was delicious overall. This place was a welcomed surprise and the flavor combinations were unique and different. This place is definitely something to talk about!

So not to jump past the details... but overall Balance was just ok. It is a place I'd try again…read morebecause I feel like it has potential and maybe it was an off night. When I found them online I was jazzed about the menu. They have a lot of unique options which I'm a huge fan of. It's always easy to find basic menus, so to find something fun that also offered a kids menu (meaning, cool... I don't need to worry about taking my humans even though they'll be ordering off the regular menu) was promising. The space itself is funky in a good way and spacious. It spans a few different rooms which all have their own vibe, and we saw igloos outside! I'd say our food had a 60/40 success rate. The hummus was seriously awesome, as was the risotto. My protein power bowl was so tasty with a great dressing and I absolutely love that they have creative vegetarian options. Our server was so kind, but I'm not quite sure where they were for most of our visit. Again... maybe an off night. We'd try it again. If you're someone who needs a changing table, they have one!

So now....I have been here various times and the food before was excellent. There also appeared to be much more variety before. It doesn't appear now that the restaurant staff and menu supports the initial idea of the place so the whole speakeasy vibe and is now lost in translation. The service this time was good albeit we had another new server so it kind of scares me that on more than one occasion our server was new. It doesn't appear to be a place where they can retain staff. In addition the place was pretty empty, so you would expect The servers to be extra attentive which did not appear to be the case. The food this time was not even memorable. My husband had some salad thing which was pretty standard. But this time nothing wowed me like the first or second time since the original options were greatly reduced or removed. Really kind of sad to see the whole vision for this place to fall apart. I'd say with the menu options now and the standard of service. They are better to scale back completely and rebrand as a lunch spot. Reduce the prices and put out cheaper lunch options. It's giving "it could have been love but it's over now..." Overall would not recommend this place for dinner or couples. But maybe a cool lunch spot for working professionals or ladies who lunch.

First, the location is convenient to find. It sits right on the main street, and there is a welcome flag outside. There is plenty of parking and the outside of the building is very nice and well kept. Those are the last good things I can say about this location. We walked inside and it looked crowded, but in actuality, there were less than 30 people in the entire place and only about eight sitting at the bar. I do consulting work so I travel frequently and when I do my husband and I take those opportunities to visit wineries and distilleries in the area and this is the first distillery I have ever been in where the display is located right behind the barstools and with the people sitting at the bar And their friends standing behind them, we could not even see what the distillery had to offer. We stood at the bar for about 15 minutes and the bartender never even acknowledged we were there. Now again, it looked busy, but of the 8 to 10 people sitting at the bar there were 4 to 5 at the far end of the bar who were there either before or after a wedding reception that should have been cut off , and they were monopolizing his attention. After we waited for him to take a drink order for more than 15 minutes after we were told he would be back twice, we just decided to buy liquor to try at home. I squeezed my way amongst the group to find the very small display in the back And literally just grabbed a few small sample bottles and one bottle of caramel something and made my way back to the bar. We put the bottles on the bar, put my husband's wallet next to the bottles, and we stood there for 33 minutes, I timed it on my phone because my husband and I had a bet on how long it would take the bartender to come back. I won at 30 and at 33 minutes. We walked out and left the liquor on the bar. The gentleman sitting in the seat next to where we were standing, could see our frustration and told us if we wanted to go to a real distillery to go to the Moonshine Distillery in Namty Glo, which we did and it was worth the drive! Unfortunately, this location looks like it's a bar with some samples on the wall, which is great if you wanna be a bar, but for people that look for distilleries and spend $$$$ when they are there, this is not the place to go. My recommendation, always acknowledge your customers when they are at the bar, even if it's just to say hey I'm busy, I'll be right back, but never ignore them. I have been to distilleries and wineries that are in old barns, in the middle of nowhere, and they still smell like active farms, but, the liquor was superb, the displays were amazing, and the people that worked there were friendly, engaging, and just amazing people which made the experience a five star visit every time.
