If you're going to take your name from a badass like the patron saint of blacksmiths, you better be able to back it up. Baldamar marks the turning point where we usher in the new standard for style, service and steak. It means the menu’s made with old-world craft at its core and modern day meat eaters in mind — with flavors forged in fire and folded into pure primal perfection. It’s where every steak is aged 40 days and 40 nights for a taste of biblical proportion, and where crazy-fresh seafood means it was caught during your morning commute. At the bar sits every spirit imaginable, and someone who isn’t afraid to use them. This is more than a new steakhouse. It’s a line in the sand. It’s not just where you celebrate special occasions. It’s where you create them.*A 20% Service Fee is added to all groups of 8 or more.

This place is overrated and over priced. The food is decent but not surprisingly good. Our lunch sandwiches are good but the fries are way too oily (almost disgusting). The portion of dessert is huge and overly sweet. That said, the banana cheesecake is rememberable. Overall is a decent experience. Considering there is not many good restaurants around Roseville area, I will still go back Baldamar for special occasions.

First of all, the server was so sweet and educated on the menu. It was our first time and I had a great experience. The Amalfi coast pizza my husband got was surprisingly so good! Never would’ve thought those flavors would be so good. I got the margarita pizza and added sausage and honey. Delicious. I also tried the miso cabbage and it was great! At the end we took pictures in the photo book and I loved it! Definitely will come back!

Lovely setting, attentive service, delicious meal and exciting cocktails. We loved every aspect of our date night dinner. Beef tartare, scallops and duck were all outstanding and beautiful. Passionfruit tart also very nice. Don’t miss the passionfruit cocktail with bubbles, sidecar or espresso martini. Exceptionally good.
