About Us

We believe that the core of every successful dish is the origin of its ingredients.

From the Heart, Made to Share

The nature of Balade's home-cooked food is one that comes from the heart. We hand select our ingredients to be able to bring you the best tasting flavors from the Middle East and the Mediterranean. The Chef wants to satisfy your diverse palate by creating a wide range of dishes for both vegetarians and those who love traditional meat and fish. Looking forward to hosting you soon!

A Neighborhood Favorite

Set in the heart of the East Village, Balade has become a local gathering place—where friends meet, families share meals, and new traditions are made over mezze and wine.

Hospitality at the Core

From the kitchen to the dining room, hospitality drives everything we do. We believe food should feel generous, service should feel personal, and every guest should leave happy and well-fed.
