Please click below to listen to my review of the relaunch of the Balls Brothers in Mayfair. Good solid food in a drinking establishment.
Be aware the place was pretty loud – it was very busy early on and later the lights went down and the music up.
Worth dropping by after work, but not a place for a special trip. The wine list was a touch disappointing, very predictable and nothing by the glass that jumped out as interesting.

I had a lovely meal here. The squid for starter, and the fried chicken and chicken burger were really excellent. The lamb was really good as well – I love salt marsh lamb. We had issues over the amount of time it took us to get our mains, though they know why it happened and it’s something they can address. Less good was my friend’s steak, which was not very good to start with, and came out over-cooked. They made up for it in spades though, with free drinks, a replacement main course and a new steak.
We didn’t get to try the desserts, but the cocktails were good. I had a Tom Collins, which I think could have been a bit sweeter and lemony-er. The others I had a sip of were really excellent.

I enjoyed the meal at 50% 0ff, but I’m not sure I’d visit again, what with the cheer choice of places nearby. The food good, but a little expensive. Bear in mind I live locally, and I’m sure most of the clientele will be tourists browsing the market. The 50% off soft launch is on until Wednesday 26th April
