Is Balboa BYO?

Hi We had a good meal with you 21 February. The service was friendly and the food tasty. My question: Once home I noticed that a Tip of about 5% was added to the bill. This was done without any indication that there would be a tip. Why is this?

Watched this restaurant being built 4 years ago and wondered how good it would be. We are from Melbourne and this is the first time we have been back. Had a beautiful meal with my wife and her sister and husband to celebrate a 70th birthday. My wife had the beef cheek gnocchi and I had fettuccine al gamberi, both meals delicious. Lovely atmosphere with attentive staff. Would only add we found the wine a bit expensive, otherwise definitely recommend.

We have been to Balboa Italian a few times for birthday celebrations and family dinners alike. The atmosphere is really inviting, warm and fun... The food here is amazing, I am always in awe of the sensational flavours and presentation of the food. The gnocchi just melts in your mouth. The service staff are always so friendly, attentive and above all accomodating and helpful. To save the best for the last... the cocktail menu is out of this world.. try the Balboa Colada (my fav) - big juicy caramelised pineapple attached... or the sweet and sour gin... and for dessert save room for the Tim Tam cocktail. Highly recommend this restaurant and venue. Thank you for having us we had a lovely time, we left laughing and our belly’s satisfied ❤️🥰

We’ve just got home from a family celebration at Balboa tonight and we all had such a great experience. The cocktails were amazing, food was excellent, and service was personal and exceptional. Definitely a new favourite for special nights out. We will be back!

From the moment you step into this restaurant, you know it's going to be an enjoyable experience. Excellent, friendly, attentive staff and food was delicious. We arrived early and sat at the bar drinking delicious cocktails until our table was ready. Cocktails, which are well priced for the quality are a must if you visit Balboa. Loved it!!!!

This was the best lunch I’ve had in decades. A beautiful setting and food to die for. Try the sneaky peach cocktail! Stunning! I had the Balboa Carbonara and it was the best pasta dish I’ve ever had! Amazing! Washed down with a Tuscan rose! Finished the lunch off with an affogato, unforgettable lunch!

A 5 STAR FAVOURITE Price: $$-$$$ Cuisine: Italian Location: Palm Beach Bookings: Necessary/Required Parking: Available/Easy Cocktails: 4/5 (Try the new Peach Ice Tea Cocktail delicious for men and women) Food: Dinner (Lunch on Sundays check online to confirm) Consistent and awesome. Full of flavour and the chefs are always appreciated by staff and patrons. Dress: Neat casual. Family dining: Venue is designed to accomodate those who are either on a date, anniversary, family night out with kids, or dinner with friends. Balboa makes you feel like family. An extensive wine list means they cater to all delights. The meals are fresh and always full of flavour and their pizzas are actually the most authentic and delicious in the area.

I was visiting from interstate a few weeks ago and came to Balboa Italian with my cousin. We were very early but were able to take a seat until our table was ready. All staff were very friendly but not in an overbearing, annoying way. Food was excellent. I'm so glad we came. Highly recommended.

My first time here, and it didn't disappoint. The service was first class, the food was excellent, and the decor was spot on. We will return.

This sophisticated eclectic industrial Italian Restaurant is my new gnocchi heaven. The chef's take on this soft melt-in-your mouth Italian specialty, with its nutty black truffle sauce, is simply superb. Seating is available upstairs downstairs and on the balconies so don't hesitate to ask for a more private space if you prefer one. The extensive food menu has something for everyone including vegans, carnivores and children, though it oozes a romantic vibe. The drinks menu is the envy of any mixologist, and even boasts a separate bourbon bar. All this combined with the efficient and attentive service, this restaurant has made it onto my exclusive top 5 favourite restaurants on the Gold Coast list. I'll be back soon!
