The BalMar Description:
With so many exciting restaurants in Ballard, it's easy to overlook the neighborhood's vintage favorites. Located in a classic 1920s brick building, BalMar cleverly blends Ballard's old-world character with a chill urban attitude and well-prepared Northwest cuisine. The two-story bistro features low couches and intimate lighting. An upstairs "game room" has two pool tables, a second bar, and additional seating. Enjoy creative cocktails with a signature appetizer, such as plump risotto cakes paired with lingonberry sauce or the crispy calamari served with a spunky chipotle aïoli. If you're seriously hungry, the reasonably priced entrées include a classic bistro steak and fries, a grown-up grilled cheese sandwich, and Greek-style sliders. For a more sophisticated option, choose the seared rosemary scallops. Be sure to save room for the lavender brownie frosted with creamy mascarpone and chocolate.
