Food was incredible! I highly recommend the Rib eye tacos & the Pato ( 12 hour braised duck… delicious) The Decor is a beautiful vibe, & the drinks were very tasty.
Nadir is exceptional & Maddie is very talented. Thank you for a wonderful night
I've been to this restaurant with my husband & with my girlfriends. The restaurant is totally fit for both. The highlight is the food combinations. Really good. Anything on the menu! Most menu are gluten free, unlike literally all of the other restaurants at royalmount...!
Nous avons récemment dîné chez Balam & avons malheureusement été très déçus par notre expérience. Malgré le fait qu'il n'y avait que trois tables occupées dans tout le restaurant, le service s'est avéré extrêmement lent. Personne n'est venu nous proposer de l'eau ni vérifier si nous avions besoin de quoi que ce soit au cours du repas. Les plats étaient corrects, mais sans réelle originalité ni saveur marquante. Le rapport qualité-prix laisse à désirer : les prix sont largement trop élevés pour ce qui est offert.
Super beau & bon restaurant ! J'ai adoré mon expérience. Nous avions une réservation pour 10 personnes ce soir, & je n'ai pas été déçu. Que ce soit les tacos aux crevettes & au poulpe, ou le trio de ceviches, tout était excellent. & que dire de la décoration du restaurant…juste WOW!Ce ne sera certainement pas ma dernière fois !☺?
Love the atmosphere , especially the music, the DJ was talented & creating wonderful vibes, its my second time going on Saturday night & we definitely going back again

J'ai trouvé que la dimension des tables sont trop petites pour ce qui a sur les tables. J'ai trouvé difficile de circuler entre les tables même pour les serveurs.
Always check you bill!!!! The restaurant it's nice . Very new. We had great time till we saw the bill. The price they charge & the menu price was different. That was a bit surprising. Even the manager said they forgot to change the menu. But I mean this is brand new restaurant how can they change the price so frequently….I will make sure always check the price .
Nous avons passé une belle soirée dans ce restaurant mexicain pour la Saint-Valentin. L'ambiance était au top grâce au DJ & à la bonne musique, parfaite pour une soirée festive & romantique. Un petit restaurant charmant avec décor magnifique & chaleureux. J'ai demandé pour extra tortilla chips & je n'ai pas été déçue. Tous les plats était délicieux. J'ai surtout aimé le surf n turf. Une belle découverte, on reviendra sans hésiter !
Great new place ! Celebrated my birthday on Saturday night & we were impressed with the food & service. Portions for the main courses were surprisingly big, making the prices worth it. Great vibes too.

Très bonne expérience chez Balam au Royalmount. Les plats étaient délicieux & le service impeccable. Merci à Nadir, le manager, pour son attention & son accueil chaleureux. Je recommande!
I had an amazing experience at this new mexican restaurant. The atmosphere is warm & inviting, the service is friendly & attentive, & the food is absolutely outstanding. The highlight of my meal was the duck tacos-perfectly cooked, tender, & packed with rich, savory flavors. They're unlike anything I've had before-
unique, delicious, & a must-try for any taco lover. If you're looking for authentic Mexican cuisine with a creative twist, this place is a gem. I'll definitely be coming back for more!
La nourriture était excellente. Les 5 plats commandés était très bons. Nous avons eu un très bon service avec Myriam qui s'est bien occupée de nous & était attentive.
L'ambiance était plaisante avec le DJ & la belle deco! Je vais retourne
