Meh, food was OK nothing special. Service was horrible. Not impressed. Also the place gets so packed people are constantly pushing into you while you eat.

The Balthazar experience, for everyone.

Great for people watching. But pretty average croissants & dreadful coffee. Disappointing for a place pretending to be French.

Get the vanilla cannelet!!

Actually, the balthazar sucks. All except for the bathroom. I love when dudes listen to me go. No but seriously. I work from the bux across spring. Tip: Use Balthazar's bathroom.

Touristy and extremely mediocre (in service and in breakfast foods)

PSA: Didn't realise there were staff waiting in the bathroom to turn the tap on and hand you paper towels. Awkwardness was had.
