" Our dinner at Asadero Ballard was quite an experience. The steak was exceptionally good, and I loved how it came sizzling hot on the stone. The atmosphere was lively, perfect for celebratory dinners. Service was quick; however, it did feel a little rushed at times. The prices are justified considering the quality. We had an enjoyable evening and would definitely recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an amazing brunch at Asadero Ballard! The flavors were vibrant and true to authentic Mexican cuisine. I can't rave enough about the bone marrow appetizer. It was rich and creamy, an absolute delight! The drinks were also impressive, great selection with unique blends. The only downside was that it was a bit noisy, but that’s to be expected on a busy weekend. Highly recommend making reservations! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow! What an experience at Asadero Ballard! This place is a must-visit for any meat lover. My husband and I ordered the Delmonico steak, and it was so good that we couldn’t help but finish every bite. The ambiance was intimate, making it perfect for a special night out. I was a fan of their classic margaritas, too—very refreshing. The service was attentive without being intrusive. The only negative was that our table was a bit cramped, but the food made up for it completely! " (*Curated Review*)

" Love this place! The vibe is perfect for any dinner occasion—romantic, family, or just a night out. The staff is super welcoming, and they really know their menu! We tried the rib-eye, and it was so tender. The guacamole is incredible and very fresh; it’s a must-try! Reservations are recommended, as it can be quite busy, especially on weekends. We're already planning our next visit! " (*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!
