    Went to Balena popup last minute, and have no regrets. Food was incredible and there was a ton of it. Denix was a gracious host and anticipated timing of courses perfectly. Well done!

    I was so excited to have food from Balena again! The antipasto, salad and pasta were great! The chicken and steak were disappointing because it was not seasoned well. I don't remember what the tiramisu was like when Balena was open but I was disappointed. Full disclosure, I've been to Italy three times in the last two years so my bar is really high on the tiramisu.
