What User doesn't like about El Viejo Balcon:
It is definitely not a fashionable place (for a fashion grill, go to don ferro, on the other side of the street.) the food is fine, the quality of the meat is normal (not exceptional) and the service has deteriorated. old school waiters seemed to have left (probably turned too expensive) and new ones, similar to children, do not pay attention or are completely incompetent. prices are a bit high given the quality of t...

The truth is that it's a place I've been frequenting since I was 1 year old is basically a place I love! Obviously not all the times that I was all perfect, sometimes they may fail some questions but in general it is a very good place, always impeccable attention. Food almost always 10/10. And the place is warm, clean and tidy. They are not very likely to have a bad experience here, so I recommend them without any doubt! As for prices, I'd say price-quality ratio.
We eat grilled salmon with Spanish potatoes, grilled peacock, vegetable crepes, hot chicken broochette. Abundant plates. Warm atmosphere. In the bathroom there is no baby changer. The service is very bad, the mozo tended badly and it took a lot to bring simple orders more than 20' to bring the pimentero and another 20' to bring ice.
We had read some bad opinions but we decided to go the same way, and we noticed that they were not wrong. The noise is deafening, at such a point that I can hardly speak. He touched us on a table next to the door and it was cold, every time some comensal or receptionist came out, they left open and it entered very cold. We ordered grilled for 2, which included: 1 chorizo, 1 morcilla, 1 kidney, bait, 2 large chinchulines. Empty and grilled cut fries. The kidney was raw, the rest very well except the vacuum that seems to have given him very strong fire because it was well cooked outside but not inside (we couldn't eat everything). Between the first part (parrillada) and the meat, it took almost 50 minutes, arguing that “I was leaving now.” A little oily potatoes. The attention of the young man, excellent. The very nice and very well decorated place. The attention of the excellent receptionist. It would improve the issue of noise and not rush the grill so much. I'd come back, but someday not so crowded and try other meals.
Excelent food, chord prices, quick attention. The only thing that tables are very close together so there is quite a hustle but it was well heated.
Very nice local, well located, with tables outside and inside. Attention is excellent, and very good food. Recommended.
