Balthazar in Carouge (GE)

Still as good. Warm and fast service. Looking forward to the terrace this summer

A very warm place, with very good dishes and friendly staff. A very nice surprise

I regularly have lunch in this restaurant, the service is very pleasant and fast, the cuisine is modern, everything is cooked on time. I highly recommend, plus in the evening they organize great parties.

A little tasteless rice, a thin slice of pan-fried salmon (really thin), two pieces of tasteless tomato, some rather good zucchini and a salad leaf: 32 chf. Good luck, I won't come back.

Updated comment: We went one day in April 2023 in the late afternoon. We ordered 2 herbal teas and 1 slice of lemon meringue pie, homemade, we were told. The pie was frankly bad, clearly not fresh. At the time of the bill, I look at the details, the waiter having already made a mistake by giving us that of another table: frs 10.00 for 2 herbal teas and frs 12.00 for a slice of pie!! A real shame. First and last time for us.

Nice atmosphere, homemade cuisine and made to order. The service and staff at the top.

Beautiful area A little expensive for a lunch but very good. Service too slow (1 hour wait)

Service that leaves something to be desired. We ask the waiter to please bring the salad sauce, separately... Result, not only is the sauce on the dish, but also no apology from him... He still accuses the kitchen staff... In short... 6.- for a Coke and a forgetting for the coffee creams and in addition a very noisy place. Too bad, the place itself is nice but we won't come back...

We ordered coffee that tasted... like sock juice! They looked like they were made from already used coffee. We couldn't drink them but we were still charged for them. The server was not pleasant.

Good and warm welcome. Pleasant surprise with the shaded and quiet terrace. Very good cuisine and generous quantities

Unacceptable!!! Here is a Caesar salad with two small pieces of chicken, a base of green salad and a few croutons..as in the photo, very small portion! For Sfr. 28.- and a 75 cl bottle of water. At Sfr. 9.-!!! After talking to the waiter about it, he replied, sorry, we'll give you 10% off the bill!!!! In short, I won't set foot there again!!! ABE

Nice cafe for a rest and recharge but the smoothie was only an iced drink.

Very nice and very well eaten 👍🏼

Good food and very good service!

Pleasantly surprised by this establishment which gave us a very nice evening A big thank you to Mathieu who welcomed us and served us with great professionalism. see you soon.

A great time with friends in a very charming place. We had a great time, it was great. The garden terrace is incredible. I recommend. Ps: the blonde bun waiter was very attentive to us, nothing to say

You are the best, the pasta is great!

We feel like we are in Italy, meals and desserts were poetically exquisite.

Very welcoming staff and very good cuisine. I can quickly mend it :)

Great restaurant! Very nice atmosphere, very efficient service and very good food!

I have been to this restaurant several times, truly with Italian flavours, but above all Home Made from the pastas to the desserts! I highly recommend it! 💪🥂🔝 The free parking is also appreciated!😊

The terrace is superb in summer, the decor is nice as is the team!

Excellent salad!! And the impeccable service.

I recommend this restaurant. The welcome is warm. You can taste quality and very well cooked dishes!

Excellent quality of food and service, great variety of dishes to choose from, I highly recommend it to everyone

In that restaurant there are delicious meals such as hamburgers of a large size and a delicious flavor and like the hamburger there are many more delicious dishes, I recommend that you do not miss it.

Superb restaurant, I highly recommend. Gourmet plate is colorful. The owners are very welcoming and the chef is very competent. Affordable price with excellent quality.

Very welcoming restaurant, varied menu, all Italian. Dishes full of flavors I am very happy, will come back with my friends. Excellent Chef

Great discovery. Very friendly welcome, 100% homemade simmered dishes and really delicious! Warmly recommended.

Great welcome, sumptuous meal... well done to the chef

The food at this restaurant is very good and all thanks to the excellent quality and variety of cuisine by the Chef de cuisine, I recommend it so you can go and enjoy,

I ordered a Caesar salad, a bottle of still water and an espresso. In addition to the fact that the service was very long, the price was exorbitant. 36.- chf. I made the remark to a waiter and the response exceeded all limits. “You know I shouldn’t even have been there, plus I’m poorly paid, if you want to complain, you check with my boss” and in a very unpleasant tone. Well, well done customer service even if I don't want to generalize. For your information, we paid not to make a fuss.

I made the mistake of coming to eat at this place today We also left without paying with the agreement of the gentleman at the cash register. The boss preferred to hide instead of coming to apologize at our table for the comments he made against us hidden in the kitchen and which unfortunately for him, we overheard…. I can’t wait for this restaurant to disappear from the landscape in favor of qualified restaurateurs. This message expects no response, if you would like further explanations I have left the contact details and my number with your cashier. See you soon

I too was in this restaurant with friends and I witnessed the scene explained just before by this gentleman in his review It is a scandal to be received like this and to minimize this error. You should question yourself because the mistake you made could have been much more serious, reversing the dishes demonstrates your amateurism and your lack of courage since indeed the so-called boss that you are has preferred to desert the restaurant since this situation. My message does not expect a response either, you are bad luck. Good luck

The place is pretty with a nice terrace, the welcome is good. The cuisine is ok and well presented but the flavors are sometimes just up to par, which is a shame and the waiter is efficient and fast but his stress is perceptible and rubs off a little on us (we therefore feel a little stressed when ordering ). PS: the canolo is blah blah, prefer the Tiramisu 😉 (I would have given 3.5 but we can't so I preferred to give a 4)

Decoration, dishes, drinks at the top!!! Very welcoming and friendly staff

Great restaurant! We had a blast! Very friendly and professional staff. I recommend !

It was the perfect place to start the year off right, A memorable after work, all my colleagues are delighted!!! 🙏🙏🙏 The tapas made us want to stay, then the beef fillet with morels was divine!!! Not to mention the service, or rather the waiter, as efficient and welcoming as the finesse of the meal!! See you soon Thanks again Balthazar

I was sick the two days following my meal at this establishment. Chef always wants to be right. Watch your stomach!!

Bad from start to finish. Reservation forgotten. Outdated service. 30 minutes to get a beer. Burnt burger, aggressive and insulting cook. More than half of the ingredients on the menu are missing. To flee !

Regular restaurant lousy from start to finish

Not good. Dishes too salty. Waited 1h30 for a burnt Hamburger. Please do not approach this establishment.

A magnificent welcome, thank you to the boss and his employees... so good...

Improbable, unexpected and unusual place, a great discovery for my guests!! Thank you to the entire Balthazar team, in particular Chef Salvatore who took us on a journey…. And delighted our taste buds!!!! Superb covered and heated outdoor terrace!! Amazing ✅✅🙏🙏🙏🙏💙💙💙

A superb evening last night in the company of our server Matthieu who took great care of our table of 6, impeccable service with good humor! A great time spent at Balthazar and THANK YOU again Matthieu for your kindness and your great professionalism! We closed the Balthazar in the most beautiful atmosphere! Ps: Impeccable food, cooking of the beef steak perfectly!

Dishes good but nothing more, little choice and excessive prices

Excellent restaurant!!! The daily menus are well balanced and the value for money is excellent. The decor of the restaurant and the terrace are perfect for a birthday celebration, a club dinner or an evening with friends. The service staff is very pleasant and I thank the chef for offering us excellent pasta dishes that vary with the seasons. The waiter's recommendation: the house burger which is just divine... In short, thank you and see you soon.

Friendly staff and good food but overpriced beer.

A good place to meet with colleagues

We will often go here during the week at lunch. The staff is super nice and the terrace is great.

Great restaurant with a beautiful interior courtyard terrace. The menu is small with options that change every day depending on arrivals. The food is so fresh and of good quality! They're giving the bill to the table now! Good service and atmosphere!

Very good place, tastefully decorated!

Surprisingly lovely outdoor area. Small menu

A sure value. A small terrace in the interior courtyard which is really very pleasant. The burgers are good. Good choice of beers. The service was quick and friendly.

Reduced menu but normal with these times.

Very nice, dynamic team, cool music. Great place.

Welcome, service, quality of dishes and the cherry on the cake, the superb terrace in summer

Poke bowl at 27.- for some raw vegetables, a base of quinoa and a slice of chicken... This served after 45 minutes of waiting... However, the burger is ok although the fries are cold.

A lovely place for a chilled lunch. Serves fresh burgers and crispy fries. The service is quick. Only let down is worn out furniture and utensils.

I adore Excellent food Original and varied Top boss Pleasant staff Passionate and competent cooks I recommend

It is better to arrive at the start of the service, then you will be well served. On the other hand, if you arrive a little later, it becomes much less good: daily specials sold out, other à la carte dishes as well, and an endless wait to be served.

Nice setting but the place is a little cold for the season

Very good but a little expensive for the area where it is located

Welcome, service and quality food.

Too much waiting for an ordinary dish... disappointed

The setting is nice and the hamburgers are very good. The pleasant staff I recommend

Four stars for the gentleman at the bar, who knows how to handle people. Their burger used to be one of the best in town, I don't know if it's still the case. I took one star off because I'm still confused regarding the opening hours.

Never been better, nunca asi chèvere, so nice, really cool.

L’accueil et le restaurant sont excellent, le carde et sympa et le secret garden est juste génial ! Les prix sont toutefois un petit peu trop chers...

Dies ist ein brandneues Steakhouse in Genf. Wenn Sie die Schweiz besuchen, müssen Sie das überprüfen. Das Essen ist ausgezeichnet, der Service ist erstklassig und tolle Lage! Sehr empfehlenswert.

Vraiment un endroit à aller. Endroit a faire une fois dans sa vie. Bouffe sublime, service hors pair. Un endroit cosy et élégant cher mais où vos pupilles gustatives vous en seront reconnaissantes. A chaque fois que j'y vais je dois m'arrêter à cet endroit.

Très mauvais accueil des clients qu’on pousse a la consommation d’alcool sur la terrasse. Service très lent pour des plats chers et pas terribles et pour couronner le tout un Manager agressif! on n’y Retournera pas

Expensive and food below the average

Magnificent terrace, friendly service, nice cuisine

Good evening. If, for in this bar, tapas allows you to take the title of restaurant, I don't understand... And then the rosé pool at 13.- so which is equivalent to 15ml of rosé, with HUGE ice cubes!! !! While knowing that a glass of rosé is 25ml and costs 7.- .....explain this scam to me!!!!!!! It's pretty, yes! Nice waitresses!!! But it's not worth this price! clearly!!!!!!!!I would NOT go back. Ah; and be careful: if you dispute with the servers, you will be considered "in bad faith!!"

Superb Italian cuisine...and in the evening afterwork in a splendid garden ❤

A little oasis of freshness...unfortunately no room when you arrive...better to book!!!

Tongs prohibited... yet the women came home in sandals... scandal...

A wait of almost an hour after ordering for a very poor quality hamburger. The only positive point about this restaurant: the waitresses who did everything possible to make us wait. A restaurant to avoid!

Superb terrace with excellent salads and burgers Swiss service (long) but friendly

Relaxed place, nice atmosphere. 3 times not disappointed. Open kitchen a plus. Delicious homemade hamburger. Service smile thank you.

Service, welcome at the top and more coffee like in Italy Bravo

Friendly setting and top-notch service

Fast and impeccable service. The dishes are delicious, the kitchens are visible and you can see the chefs working with fervor and diligence.

Very good hamburgers 👍 at fair prices

Very cozy atmosphere, food is tasty and prepared with fresh ingredients. The service is friendly and attentive. I can highly recommend the chicken burger, veggie burger and chicken salad. All are delicious. There is also a happy hour on Fridays where they prepare a buffet with a few appetizers such as cheese, sliced meets, chicken skewers, bread and some veggies. There is no additional charge for the buffet. They also offer some local beers on draft. Good for groups. Its a nice place for lunch or after work/school drinks.

affettati e formaggi italiani burrata vino ottimocarne di prima qualita 'titolare simpatico acolti con calore

Their Express formula is simply magical

J’adore définir cet endroit comme un Loft New Yorkais! Le cadre est juste génial , décoratio top. Le personnel est vraiment très sympathique. La cuisine rien à dire ...on vous propose plats de très bon niveau...bravo les cuisiniers. Des AfterWork avec des spécialistes Italiennes les mercredis , jeudis, vendredis ainsi que des animations régulièrement....

Russian pasta.... A treat!!! Top notch service!!!

Top team, very good cuisine and friendly setting, especially in summer with the terrace

Je viens ( venais) manger dans ce restaurant tous les mardis midi afin de faire un cours de conversation d'espagnol. J' y reste normalement 1h30-1h45.Aujourd'hui, j ai consommé le plat du jour avec une eau gazeuse et mon amie a consommé une soupe (format entrée )Quelle fut ma surprise quand le serveur m' a montré l addition de 35chf en me disant que notre table n était pas rentable compte tenu de la durée pdt laquelle nous sommes restées sur place.Il a essayé de justifier cette remarque en disant que ça ne venait pas de lui mais de son patron, qui semble être doté de beaucoup de courage.Dommage car, en faisant ce genre de remarque ils perdent des revenus récurrents.Il est assez fou de se dire que de nos jours au vue de la conjoncture on puisse "cracher " sur chf 35.Il est certain que je n y retournerai plus.

Always a very pleasant restaurant! The coffee and menus are always very good

Das Restaurant ist schön und gut eingerichtet. Wir warteten eine ganze Weile, bevor wir nach dem Service fragten, dann kam es etwas eilig ohne die Zeit, nach Süßstoff oder einem Glas Wasser zu fragen. . . Schade, dass es Potenzial hat.

Great restaurant, delicious dishes with homemade potato chips and young and motivated servers! I recommend!

Positive: My burger of the day was delicious. The waitress is very friendly and professional. The decor is very nice and cozy. Easy to park in the Mediamarkt car park. To improve: Cold chips and lukewarm burger. The breads deserve to be warm. The table in front of the kitchen is too noisy. We can hear all the staff's conversations. Damage...

De bon Burger avec de bonnes chips mais salade trop petite qui l accompagne. Service beaucoup trop lent pour un restaurant qui doit être rapide vu qu il se situe à côté des bureaux. Les prix sont élevés par rapport à la lenteur du service et de la sympathie du personnel.

Great restaurant that presents cuisine with Italian flavors. A pretty terrace at the back of the restaurant, very nice in summer.

Excellent surprise. Between the decor, the kindness of the servers and the more than acceptable quality of the dishes, this makes a super interesting and almost inexpensive combo for Geneva. Special mention for the coffee granita, a pleasant and refreshing discovery!

Very friendly staff and excellent meal
