" I had heard so much about Asadero Ballard, and I finally visited. The service was excellent, quick and genuine. The steak was cooked perfectly, though I wish I could've tasted more of the seasoning; it was a little on the mild side for my taste. Nevertheless, it was enjoyable. Prices were on the higher end, but for a special occasion, it was worth it. Just a tip—probably best to request less done since it can continue to cook on the hot stone. " (*Curated Review*)

" Disappointed! I was looking forward to trying Asadero Ballard after hearing so much hype, but my experience did not live up to expectations. The steak was good, but not exceptional. The service was prompt but felt a bit robotic. Prices felt high for what we received, and I wished for more vibrancy in the flavors overall. I may give it another chance due to their stellar reputation, but I was underwhelmed this time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a wonderful family dinner here! The kids loved the quesadillas and the adults were all about the steak! We tried a few of their appetizers, and each was better than the last. We had such a great time, and the server was phenomenal. Really made us feel welcomed and special. Can't recommend this place enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was thoroughly impressed by Asadero Ballard! As soon as I walked in, the atmosphere felt warm and welcoming. I ordered the New York Strip, and it was cooked to perfection. We also tried various salsas that came with our tacos, which added a delightful twist. The portions were generous, and the prices were fair for the quality of food. Service was friendly, but didn't feel rushed despite the crowd. I’ll be back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" This was a great restaurant and a wonderful choice for dinner! The meat was so tender, and the various salsas added an extra kick. I was impressed with the portion sizes as well; very generous! Service was attentive; I felt welcomed throughout our time there. Overall, a fantastic restaurant that I look forward to revisiting! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an alright experience here. The food was tasty, but I felt the service was a bit slow. It took longer than expected to get our drinks. The steak was good, but I’ve had better elsewhere. Still, I’d give it another shot since the flavors were on point. " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is just phenomenal! From start to finish, every dish was prepared with such care and attention to detail. I specifically enjoyed the carne asada, which was so flavorful and tender. The server was knowledgeable about the menu and helped us pick the best combination of sides to go with our entrees. The ambiance was cozy and perfect for a date night! Will definitely return!
