We attended a 5 course wine and food pairing dinner Was fabulous. The lasagna had the most incredible ragu sauce. Every course was paired perfectly with a wine. It was our first visit to this incredible restaurant. Will definitely return!

Got the carbonara. Flavor was okay, but it was scrambled eggs. Ravioli pesto was very good. Spaghetti bolognese was good. Would rate 4 stars if it wasn’t for the scrambled eggs.

The Mediterranean salad with orange slices was delicious! I love the way they serve their bread in a tomato can. The bread was yummy dipped in olive oil. Beautiful weather compelled me to dine al fresco on the outdoor patio.

What a lovely place for a delicious dinner. It is tucked away in the shopping center on 9th and palm avenue. Great Italian fare and good service. They need more Andrea bocelli arias to did to the atmosphere!

Came on a Friday with a last-minute reservation (under an hr) for a party of 7. It took a while to be seated as the restaurant was quite full and not super huge. The service was a little slow, but the wait staff was amazing. Food was really good, they bring you table bread in tomato tins with a little bit of oil. Daughter got the Margherita pizza it was 4/5, Mediterranean salad was very refreshing 5/5, tortellini ragu 5/5. Recommend trying the balsamic vinegar. It was probably better than Italian ones. Parking out front.

Everyone, I was absolutely shocked when I opened up the lids of my to-go order of Lasagna Bolognese and Carbonara and taste tested them. If you’ve never had carbonara before, the main protein that makes this pasta dish so special is guanciale or pancetta. When you order a dish like this, the protein is salty by design. You should expect your pasta to have that cured meat heaven, but Balsamico is missing the mark. Are they dumping a 1/4 cup of salt into the pasta water? Why is this saltier than the ocean? Maybe this one was a one off. Nope. The lasagna was even saltier, barely edible because I haven’t eaten anything all day due to work. I want to make something very clear. I love salt. Most American restaurants under season, so for the first time in my life I’m shocked to say, this restaurant has a new cook/chef, or they think the main ingredient should be a salt block. What a complete waste of money. I would never recommend this establishment to anyone. Taste your sauce and dishes before sending it out. My god how can it be this bad.
The server that took my order was very nice.

Update: 3/15/23: change review to 5 stars.
It’s been a year since I last visit and my experience has gotten better. Food was amazing and the service is friendly. The balsamic sauce is amazing.
It pains me to place 3 stars because normally I LOVE this place. I ordered take out today and the food this time wasn’t as good. I places pics to compare. The first 3 being the take out I had today vs when I dine in.
In the take out the food didn’t have as much sauce as when I dined in. Second the balsamic sauce was missing from what I ordered and the lasagna was over cooked.
The pics I place of when I dine in was very good . Full of flavor and probably the best pasta I have in I.B. Which is why it disappoints me that the take out I had today wasn’t as good. I really hope next time when I order again it will be good because I really love the food you guys make but today was just a disappointment.
Update: change review to 4stars. Because of the the 4 times I’ve gone here 3 of those times where very good.
Tip: their balsamic sauce is super Good!!

We enjoyed another fantastic meal at Balsamico, this time for restaurant week! We shared the fantastic bisque and salad, the to die for lemon pesto ravioli and pumpkin tortellini as well as the pannacotta and sorbet. All went so well together with their amazing wines and their balsamic vinegar. Thank you to the amazing staff and chef!

Great food, great service! Was able to practice speaking the little bit of Italian that I know with the waiter. Very welcoming feeling and friendly staff! The chef came out to greet everyone. The pesto risotto was good, the spinach and ricotta ravioli was fantastic! BBQ pizza flatbread is amazing!!!
