How we read reviews →Balaclava's arty taqueria, famous for brisket birria tacos, Taco Tuesday deals and lively margaritas.
Casual, art-filled taqueria with cosy booths and a buzzy bar energy. reviewers call it fun and relaxed rather than fine-dining.
Weekly specials including $1 chicken wings and Taco Tuesday (four tacos for $20), a dedicated cocktail list with spicy margaritas, and birthday touches like sombreros and chocolate-covered strawberries.
Multiple reviewers with Mexican or Texan backgrounds call the tacos genuinely authentic, while others note it's 'not your authentic Mexican but better than most'. opinions are mixed on strict authenticity.
Reviewers are split. many call the Taco Tuesday deals and burrito portions excellent value, while others note prices have crept up and serving sizes shrunk over time.
