DELICIOUS food. Must try the grilled vegetables, the shredded romaine salad (they're charcoal grilled) & the Chilean sea bass. The service by Rahad & the team was very warm & welcoming
Five of us went for my birthday last weekend. The meal was one of the best I ever had (grilled shrimp with Greek potatoes & rapini with a glass of red wine) & the service was excellent. Kudos! 👏
This fabulous Greek restaurant has become a star in Westmount. The lunch menu is excellent - love the grilled octopus & it comes with choice of Greek salad or the soup of the day.

Great place to grab dinner in westmount.
Good menu with options to please varying taste.
Greek salad was delicious & copious. Grilled mushrooms could have been more generous, but flavourful!
We had salmon, shrimp & chicken enjoyed by all.
🙏
If you follow me you know I love trying new restaurants.
I've only heard good things about Balos. Other reviewers were not wrong. The decor is beautiful & the greeting from the hostess was friendly with a big smile.
We were given a choice of window tables that had been reserved for us.
With a large variety of cuisine, it took some time to decide on what to order.
We started with 2 different salads that we shared between 4 adults; Horatio (classic Greek salad) & the Mixed Salad with Avocado. Both were delicious.
I ordered the Fried Calamari which was accompanied by steamed veggies & roasted Greek potatoes. The calamari was crispy on the outside & tender on the inside. The veggies were cooked to perfection & the potatoes were outstanding. My husband had the Grilled Chicken Fillets with also had the veggies & potatoes. The chicken breasts were well cooked yet remaining juicy on the inside. The other couple shared a whole Chilean Seabass with the same veggies & potatoes. They loved it. I found that the fish was very thin but looked very nice.
Wow! The portion sizes are really big, except for the fish, & everything was delicious. Really delicious.
Sorry, but there was no room for dessert.
Will I go back? Absolutely!
Great staff, Great food, Great service.
Cozy vibes overall & very accommodating.
Always a smile on everyone's face & a care for their customers' needs & experience.
The grilled calamari, the octopus & the bass are my favourites.
If you're looking for authentic Greek flavors, incredible hospitality, & a warm, inviting atmosphere, this is the place to be. The stuffed calamari is hands down the best I've ever had-perfectly cooked, flavorful, & absolutely addictive. & the lamb chops…juicy, tender, & grilled to perfection.
Our group enjoyed our dinner & experience at Balos. The fried, stuffed calamari were great, along with their roasted potatoes. The grilled shrimp were large but slightly overdone & so a bit tough. Service was very attentive, although not personal (maybe some people appreciate a more distant service approach). Good atmosphere & tablets settings.
Lunch. I had the grilled salmon, generous portion, nicely cooked, tasty. Comfortable chairs, nice to have tablecloths & real napkins making the place more elegant. Menu for evening looks great but I am unable to come to terms with the prices these days, most mains in the $30 to 40 plus range it is expensive to eat out these days especially with the 15% tax & expected tip. Just saying. It's a nice place, would certainly go back...after my next pension cheque comes in !
