We've been here lots of times, so about time I wrote a review, to say how good it is. Great buzz, always a fantastic atmosphere at any time of day. Service always friendly and attentive, and the food is really delicious at a very reasonable price considering how good it always is. We'll definitely be dropping in again soon!

I don't usually leave reviews unless places are exceptionally bad or exceptionally good. Unfortunately, my experience at Balans No. 60 was the former. I ordered the breakfast burrito and added chorizo. The burrito came baked with cheese on the outside like an enchilada. It was soggy, bland, and the tortilla was rubbery and chewy. There was no halloumi despite it being on the list of ingredients on the menu. The chorizo was flavourless, undercooked, and rubbery and a £4.40 up charge for a handful of pieces. There was no salsa/pico de gallo to give the burrito flavour. The potatoes were cooked well but the chunks were far too large for a burrito. The pancakes other people had looked good, wish I'd tried those. Give the breakfast burrito a miss.

Ham croquettes need ham in them. Chicken curry requires chicken as main ingredient. Very poor food twice in a row now. This place has gone downhill in recent years! 4* to 2* in a couple of years

Where to begin… we wanted to have some bites w our drinks in a nice place. We found a nice place, but… Lobster hotdog 🌭 was like bread w ketchup and the bread wasn’t fresh. King prawn was well cooked but again it was like mix of oil and mayonnaise. You cannot get the flavor. Goat cheese salad 🥗 was the best on the table. However, it was lack of dressing and dry. All food is over-priced. Plus, optional service charge was inclusive w/o information. So, we had to deduct it. The waiters were around and pushy for us to order which was a bit stressful. They don’t give space for you to decide. Plus, the plates are way too big for the small tables. This is smt they need to adjust about the service.

The staff was very attentive; we were greeted, sat down and served pretty quickly for a Friday night. The food was ok, the steak wasn’t as flavourful as I thought it would be and the sauce was a bit too thick for my liking. It also wasn’t enough for the steak. My partner had the burger but asked without bacon however when the food came it tasted like the bacon was still put on it and removed just before serving. Overall the service was great however the price for the food seems a little expensive for the food. We spent about £80 overall along with Diet Coke and a Asahi beer The steak was £35 and the burger was £18 (without fries), Parmesan fries was roughly £4.

This is a great place! I booked a table for my 40th birthday lunch and they could not have been more accommodating. They gave me the back room for x25 pax, food came out pretty much all together, they took my guidance on music from their player for the area, let me drop off the cake etc the day before. Honestly, stellar service. Every staff member was funny, friendly, kind - they bent over backwards to make my special day a success. All without needing a huge deposit or paying single bill. And the food was delicious! A great place for a special occasion. Balans No.60 is the spot!

We were strolling around Soho on a busy Thursday night and opted to try our luck at Balans No.60. We were lucky with a table for two by the window just inside the entrance. Great service by our waiter, despite being busy he managed to engage in conversation and not seeming rushed. We always appreciate skilled and personal service. We both opted for the chargrilled tuna with roasted potato, fennel & radicchio, preserved lemon and black olive & tomato dressing. A nice white wine to go with it and we were pretty happy. I’d give them a 4.5 rating if I could.

Balans No. 60 likes to advertise itself as “Famed for its outrageous atmosphere”. In reality should this place should be “Famed for outrageous prices and deeply mediocre cooking”. Poached eggs on toast, a simple dish, classic comfort food which you’d think that the chefs at a late-night diner would have perfected. What came to our table were cold, overcooked eggs on a plate, next to equally cold slices of toast, to be buttered with also near icy packaged pates of butter, presumably to be applied like araldite with a putty knife. Comfort food? More like discomfort food. Cost for this mess: £8, to which we asked for mushrooms (£3), smashed avocado (£3) and sausages (£5.50). Here was the insult to injury. Lukewarm mushrooms came as the smallest possible portion, not quite buttons, not quite portobello, more of a garnish than a side. Even smaller was the portion of avocado smash, less that half an avocado at best. The sausage links were adequate but failed to compensate. Americano £3.50, plus service charge, not on menu but added to the bill. Total cost approx. £20 per head for a meal that any greasy spoon with ambitions to pedestrian success would have charged £15 max. If the food was produced with any care or attention the £20 would be just about acceptable. Any supposed ‘buzz’ in no way compensates for shoddy catering. The place presents itself as a late-night hipster hangout, with mural portraits of supposed Soho legends such as Quentin Crisp, Amy Winehouse plus various non-entities from the 1990s painted on the way downstairs to the bogs, a metaphor for the direction of travel of this touristy rip off joint. Some long established institutions like to rest on their laurels, Balans prefers to grind their laurels into dust. This place deserves to close.

We absolutely loved this place! Very warm and friendly staff. The food was so yummy and the tea and coffee was great. Also pretty good sized portions. Meron are server was lovely and gave excellent service. We will definitely be going back to Balans. It's our new brunch spot. Update - We returned for brunch but unfortunately the french toast recipe was changed from our previous time and we weren't keen on it. The dish overall was quite heavy on the syrup and the apples were just sweet and soft, not caramelised. The original French Toast with the banana and pecans was sooo good. The staff were still very nice though and the coffee was good. Please bring back the old french toast, it was much better and tastier.

Went to Balans for dinner: overall rating is 3.5. had the Italian artichokes as a starter to share. They were well cooked with a drip of olive oil and Parmesan cheese but no garlic as announced - that I could feel - and I had to add salt and pepper to get them tasty. They could have been wonderful. As a main, I had the grilled tuna on fennel and potatoes in an olive tomato sauce. It was again well cooked and nicely prepared and presented, but a bit tasteless again. I would expect more bold flavors from ingredients. Too dull for me. I wonder if someone tastes the dishes before sending them to customers. Or what palate does he/she have. My partner had the curry and here again vegetables were cooked separately as a sautéed Dahl and onions/peppers remained raw. Not simmered/reduced enough. The chicken was added at the last moment so the dish does not deliver as a chicken curry. And the rice was too sticky and dull and n top of it… too bad. Again, nice try, but all this left us with a Could Do Better feeling because the chef does not take any risk with flavors, therefore the cuisine comes out short of expectations. Too bad because not much is missing but that not much makes the whole difference. Friendly waiters but not very attentive. Too busy talking to each other. Not the Balans it used to be.

I recently visited Balans Soho for food and drinks with a friend. While the food was delicious—special mention to the brie croquettes and lamb meatballs, which were absolutely excellent—the service left much to be desired. The staff were slow and avoidant, and we had to repeatedly ask for basics like water. One of our orders, the sweet potato fries, only arrived after we reminded them about it, which was disappointing. Overall, the food was great, but the inattentive service really dampened the experience. I hope the service improves, as the food has a lot of potential to shine with a better overall experience.

The breakfast burrito was veryyyyy filling, and tasted nice! It had hash browns, halloumi, eggs and other bits and bobs. The kimchi pancakes with fried chicken was also nice, but overtime got a bit redundant in flavour and texture. The pancake felt quite dry at the half way point - so perhaps a sauce of some sort, or an additional component aside from the chicken, would benefit the dish overall. The staff were kind, with our server refilling our cups of water regularly - it was a very kind gesture. It was busy overall, but a nice kind of bustle. I’d recommend visiting here if you’re in central london and want a solid breakfast. The pricing was extremely sensible given the area (expect roughly £10-£15 per dish). The steak and chicken were halal, but it’s also worth double checking on the particular dish you’re look at :)

Very delicious food and drinks, love the steaks, definitely recommend for the AM cravings. Very nice security guard, however, not happy at all with the interaction and service of one of the waitresses. I’ve visited this place many times but this lady’s attitude and service is very cold, unwelcoming, even disrespectful with her body language, facial expressions and speech. It’s understandable that it’s not ideal working hours but for the 10 + times I’ve visited this place, her service has been the same. If we are being served by her, my friends and I always feel very uncomfortable and it definitely brings down the mood. I have previously worked in hospitality jobs and completely understand it’s tiring but this is horrible service, interaction and definitely makes the guests uncomfortable. I’ve noticed that it’s not just us who have felt this way and I hope something is done about this as it’s a shame. Have had normal experiences with the other workers.

"Famed for its outrageous atmosphere" says the website, should read famed for its outrageous prices and mediocre food. The meal served at brunch I attended at the beginning of the year was lacklustre in the extreme. Two poached eggs on toast came with eggs overcooked and the toast stone cold (£8) plus ordered two small sausages (£5.50), 3 mushrooms (£3) and spoonful of mashed avocado (£3). Poached eggs are pretty easy to cook, one would think, and it would take a pretty cack handed cook to serve up such an afterthought of a meal. Portions are small, packaged butter straight from the fridge had to be laden on cold toast with a putty knife, The chef and crew must have been suffering from a hell of a hangover. This place is not so much resting on its laurels and in full weight squat, the laurels ground underneath being ground to powder.

Just had my first English breakfast, and I have to say, it made a great impression on me! The beans were slightly tangy with a tomato flavor, and the potato cubes had a spiciness that was quite unexpected. The "Spritz" cocktail was okay, but the "Porn Star Martini" definitely caught my attention, both being rather mild in flavor. It was lovely to enjoy a full English breakfast at 1 am on January 1st, a perfect spot to unwind after the fireworks. The waiters were also very friendly. Overall, a great experience.

I wanted to share some feedback about our visit to Soho Balance 60 on Wednesday for a Christmas dinner with friends. We’ve come to your restaurant for special occasions at list 6 years in roll. in the past and always enjoyed it, but this time, the experience was really disappointing. ( we spend over 1k) One of my guests didn’t get their pre-ordered starter, and despite asking a few times, it never arrived( we ask waiter 3 times) Getting drinks was also a struggle we had to ask multiple waiters for wine and Prosecco, and eventually, I just went to the bar myself because no one was bringing them. Throughout the evening, no one checked on our table to see if we were okay or needed anything, which made us feel completely ignored. At one point, a guest tried to pour some water since no one was around to help, and they accidentally spilled a bit, as he is not a waiter so is happen. When a waiter finally showed up, their attitude wasn’t great, and they even pushed one of my guests, which was completely unacceptable. The frustration just kept building, and unfortunately, some of my friends left early because of the poor service. I spoke to the manager at the end of the evening to share how let down we felt, but instead of addressing the issues, I was told I was banned from the restaurant. I work in hospitality myself, and I was calm in how I brought it up, so I was shocked by how dismissive and unprofessional that response was. Meny of the issues could be sort out on the day, however now one was bothered. I’m sharing this feedback because I hope it helps improve the experience for other customers, but I’ll be honest—I won’t be returning after that

necesitaba nada, lo que nos hizo sentir completamente ignorados. En un momento dado, un invitado trató de echar un poco de agua ya que no había nadie alrededor para ayudar, y accidentalmente se derramó un poco, ya que no es un camarero por lo que sucede. Cuando un camarero finalmente apareció, su actitud no fue genial, e incluso empujaron a uno de mis invitados, lo que fue completamente inaceptable. La frustración siguió creciendo, y desafortunadamente, algunos de mis amigos se fueron temprano debido al mal servicio. Hablé con el gerente al final de la noche para compartir lo decepcionados que nos sentimos, pero en lugar de abordar los problemas, me dijeron que me prohibieron entrar al restaurante. Yo mismo trabajo en hostelería, y estaba tranquilo en cómo lo planteé, así que me sorprendió lo despectiva y poco profesional que fue esa respuesta. Meny de los problemas podían ser resueltos en el día, sin embargo ahora uno estaba preocupado. Comparto esta opinión porque espero que ayude a mejorar la experiencia de otros clientes, pero seré honesto: no volveré después de eso

Fantastic girls ‘late’ lunch. Super attentive service from Daniel - he was helpful, knowledgeable and funny! Food was delicious - we ordered all of the small plates 😋 the honey truffle chicken was delicious as were the quesadillas! If fact it was all lovely. The doughnuts are but to be missed! Lovely cocktails and champagne. Thank you for making our lunch and afternoon such fun. We will be back!

Dreadful food - 1 prawn turned up for 15 pounds. Avoid at all costs. Tourist trap.

Balans No. 60 está en el corazón de la zona del Soho de Londres y es, en mi opinión, uno de los mejores lugares de Londres para la gente que mira mientras disfruta de buena comida y un menú de cócteles creativo. Estuve con un amigo para una cena antes de Navidad y encontramos el ambiente frío una experiencia abrumadoramente positiva gracias a un flujo saludable de cócteles 'Make Me Sweat' y 'Lavender High Jump' maridados y algunos platos excelentes (el suflé de queso dos veces horneado y el curry de dopiaza definitivamente merecen una mención en los despachos). La crítica tampoco estaría completa sin un "grito" a nuestro carismático y encantador camarero para la noche, Daniel. ¡Hizo su magia con una combinación de humor cáustico y bromas chispeantes! Vinimos por comida y bebida y nos fuimos después de haber disfrutado de la experiencia completa de los Balanes!

Booked bottomless brunch. Got there to be told they’re not doing bottomless brunch. Ordered 2 for 1 cocktails as advertised, to be told they’re not doing 2 for 1 currently. Staff were rude. It took over an hour to get some £15 nachos. What a joke. Only good thing was the music🤣

Great hotel. Booked a single room and i must say that the room and bed were bigger than some double rooms in London. The room was spotless with a big shower. The staff were fantastic and so was the breakfast. The street is very quiet and only a short walk from either Paddington, Lancaster Gate or Queensway transport links. Would definitely stay here the next time I'm in London.

Filled with embarrassing middle aged toffs with too high an option of themselves

The welcome was great, the staff were smiling and friendly. The meat was of excellent quality, cooked just right. The side dishes were also very good quality and varied. Delicious dessert.
