Ballards Restaurant and Sports Bar

Service very Bad since they got rid of original staff they went into the gutter. Would not recommend ballads to anyone

Had lunch here with our kids and it was fantastic. Great kids menu, and our meals were delicious.

Had the smoked pork steak and the Mac and cheese tonight and it was great. The bartender was super friendly and had a lot of energy for a Sunday night. She brightened a long travel day for our group. The smoked mac and cheese was killer too.

Bars are known for great bar food, right? Heavy, fried, good comfort food. I guess it helps when your team loses?
I almost hate eating around my neighborhood because I grew up here, the area does not really have anything new to offer. But since, Ballards recently opened and we had not had a chance to stop by, we chose the snowpocalypse of the end of February. Luckily they had stayed open and I was informed the kitchen stays open until 1230 am, also they are starting delivery soon! They do deliver to businesses now and in March will be delivering to residences also.
The reason that I am in love with this place are the wings. Don’t get me wrong, the place was very nice, servers very attentive, big tv screens, clean, what more could a girl ask for? The wings were the best I’ve had in a long time! We got a lemon pepper rub and it was just the perfect amount of seasoning, and the chicken on the bones was a lot! We have tried almost every wing place nearby and these are definitely the best.
We did proceed to stuff ourselves with an entrée after these awesome wings. I ordered a macaroni and cheese pasta. I do try to not be difficult in restaurants, but last night I just really had a hankering for buffalo chicken on top of mac and cheese. I had asked the the server to let me know if there would be an upcharge, and she said that it would be absolutely no problem. It came out exactly what I was looking for and the portions were huge! The boyfriend ordered a buffalo chicken sandwich with fries they were natural cut fries, with lots of flavor. He was very happy with his sandwich and he had lots of leftovers for the next day!
Overall, very cool place to hang out and we will absolutely be back, if for nothing else other than the wings!
