We went to Balam for a'boys'' dinner on a Friday night. The food, the meal service & the ambiance were all great. Our waitress Marina was great; very helpful in guiding us through the menu, kept our wine glasses filled & was fun to dine with. We enjoyed our time there & our meal. However, at the end of our meal, we ordered a round of 4 Clase Azul Tequila digestifs. We are not connoisseurs per se, but know the brand, & know it is expensive. Without specifying the type, we were shown a black bottle & graciously agreed to have'that one'. We were served our Clase Azul in a shot glass, with salt & a lime & subsequently were informed that the shots were $250 each. We did not know they would be THAT expensive!

We believe that we should have been presented a menu to make it clear what these exclusive drinks would cost.

Also, Clase Azul of this level should not be served in a shot glass with salt & lime. We would have appreciated the proper glassware such as a tulip glass or snifter - expected for such high calibre liquor.

The service staff was professional & courteous in taking our feedback & we came to an agreement. However, clearly, we were surprised at the bill & at how the Azul was served. We would have appreciated a little bit of clarity on what we had just ordered, given the exclusivity & price.

We will, nonetheless, go back to Balam, but will be a little bit more careful when ordering high-end tequila!

Absolutely loved Balam! The food was absolutely delicious, & the restaurant itself is gorgeous. The DJ & music created the perfect atmosphere-lively & stylish, but never too loud. The entire evening had such a beautiful vibe, & the service was wonderful from the moment we arrived. An amazing experience all around. We will definitely be back!
