This is a very cool spot. My 3 stars are more based on the food. The chow fun was just okay, the chicken tasted like cheap chewy meat. The chicken nuggets - same thing. Good spices but consistency and taste of cheap meat. Spring roll was nothing special. The pig frites, that was the highlight for sure. Super delicious. I will definitely go back for that. Tasty pork belly, crispy fries, and I don't know what sauce they put on there but ooommmggg amazing. I think the menu is a hit or miss so I will go back and try other items. The actual building is really cool. Urban modern, with several different places to eat, like a food hall. I really liked that.
Whenever I think of the Block, I think of the pork belly with rice at Balo Kitchen. Highly recommend. I've tried their chicken, I should have stuck with the pork belly.
Well since its opening last year I've eaten literally every single thing they offer.its a great concept Asian comfort food and they do it in a modern hip environment. But the food you can tell they really care about quality and a well fed customer . If you eat anything there you'll be sure to be full unless you get their small plates
My favorite place for Vietnamese faire and comfort food. Super relaxed food court setting. The 24 hour smoked pork belly is amazing There are several other choices of restaurants just a step away. The service is quite friendly and helpful. Plenty of parking and easy handicapped access
You’ve got to love this place! Just tried Balo Kitchen’s new menu item, a fiery-hot chicken sandwich. Crispy, tender chicken seasoned with a bold mix of spices. The chicken is moist under a light crusting of panko. The brioche bun is delicious. This sandwich really delivers on big bold spicy flavors. The spicy sauce comes with levels 0 to 4. Level 3 was just perfect for me - hot and spicy. But try at your own risk!!!
