Amazing staff

The staff at Balthazar were exceptional. We arrived late in the evening and were exhausted. From bags to drinks, the staff were so kind. They are knowledgeable about the city, helped with reservations and transportation. The room was clean and cozy. Truly the staff that made a difference though, can’t say enough about them.
