BALCON Comedor y bar offers an excellent dining experience. The food was superb, with flavors that truly impressed. The margarita was amazing in taste, though a bit small for the price. The location is right next to a busy street and train tracks, so it can get quite noisy at times, which might not be ideal for a quiet dinner. The restaurant wasn’t very crowded during my visit, raising some concerns about its long-term viability. Nonetheless, it’s worth a visit for the delightful food and drinks. Here’s hoping more people discover this hidden gem!

Great experience at Balcon! Taco de nopales was hands down my favorite. Drinks were great but the carajillo literally can say it’s the best I’ve had. And dont forget to try the churro donut. Def coming back, only negative comment I have was the guacamole le falto sal lol

We were really excited to try this place and came in on a Friday night (1/16) as a group of 4. It was a little chill since the doors were all open, but it was a nice setting and it wasn’t too busy but lively enough for a Friday night. Food and drinks were delicious and a good value, but man we were so bummed about the service. It was a series of forgotten things/delays, but the worst part was one of our entrees didn’t come out until the rest of us were almost done with our food and the server hadn’t checked on us so we had to let her know we were missing an entree since she hadn’t noticed. So one personally basically ate alone. We were hoping there would be some type of courtesy offer to make things right, but that never came so we didn’t end up staying for more drinks.
The other concerning detail is there was no soap in the men’s restroom, so we’re wondering how male employees were washing their hands…
I might go back based on the food cuz the ladies in the kitchen def did a good job and to hopefully update my review.

Extremely well-designed space, menu and cocktails. Our excellent server, Andres, was delightful, responsive and kind. Food was delicious and fresh, the cremas and sauces are spot on especially the aioli on the fish taco and the queso blanco on the corn And get this, $5 HH cocktails. Pretty sure we found our new spot

LONG REVIEW: As a San Diegan, I could quickly tell the California/Baja vibe the restaurant encompasses. Balcón offers authentic Californian and Baja style food. Great change to the TexMex often seen in the area. We will be back!
Overall pros and cons:
-Pros: Food was tasty, fresh, & authentic to the Mexican food in Southern CA. Drinks were overall good. Service was excellent! Vibes and ambience were great!
-Cons: Pricing was comparable to big cities, high for the area (took off a star for that). They ran out of churro donuts.
Our table tasted the following food options:
1. Salsa sampler: 3 salsas offered. Pico, red, & green. All good and fresh (green was our favorite)
2. Carne asada fries: tasty and similar to SD carne asada fries
3. Flautas: 4 came in the order and were very good. Guac with the flautas was delicious and fresh
4. California burrito: sooo good! The tortilla was delicious. Authentic to SD California burritos
5. Carne asada quesadilla: handmade corn tortilla. Very good but on the smaller side
6. Ensenada fish tacos: very flavorful with handmade tortillas. Definitely tasted like Baja style fish tacos
We had the following drinks:
1. Ma’Coco Classico: very strong margarita!
2. Spicy watermelon mint: very fresh with a little kick
3. Oaxacan passion: very good
4. Two to mango: pretty sweet
5. El dude: delish! Continued order at our table
6. Berry nice: “not berry good” according to the person who ordered it. It was extremely sweet
7. Cool as a cucumber: good and refreshing
8. Paloma: fan favorite among our table
9. Hibiscus ranch water: refreshing
10. Carajillo: delicious to end the night. Would’ve paired great with the churro donuts if they hadn’t ran out
As a Californian who visits San Marcos, balcón is a refreshing taste of home and I look forward to coming back!

Balcon is a great little Mexican restaurant on the second floor of a building, so it’s unsuspecting. The space inside is clean, simple and intimate, and there’s a nice outdoor area as well. The place has a good look and feel and while we ate there for brunch, I’ve heard the place is lit up with candles in the evening for a really nice romantic ambience. The food is really good and we had the migas, chilaquiles, breakfast burrito, and huevos rancheros, and everything was delicious. We ordered a couple of drinks and the aqua fresca were tasty. The cucumber being our favorite. As for the Oaxacan passion margarita with orange juice, I feel this had too much orange juice and not enough mezcal. It should be a simple fix to make this a better Margarita, but they’d have to adjust the ingredients. Overall at thumbs up for this place.

Skyleigh B was awesome by herself serving. She had all the tables in the restaurant. No other waitress/ waiter showed up to work. Not even manager helped this poor girl. The restaurant was packed. The bartender decided to come out at the last minute. She was too busy talking. 3 people in the kitchen. 3-5 pm during Happy Hour

I thought we were going to really enjoy this place. I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt. Maybe they were having an off day. All I know if the appetizer of ceviche was very tasteless and tasted like it had been sitting in the fridge for hours. The salsa was very strange tasting no flavor but bubbly like if they put mineral water in it. Probably not a good sign my agua fresca was so watered down I got the watermelon one and it tasted like water with a hint of watermelon. I’m not trying to be rude or put down the restaurant but I must be truthful in hopes they will put more effort into the dishes they serve. They have potential but I’m not sure what happened this time.
