sooooo gooood!

These waffles are one of the greatest treats ever! They are dessert waffles from heaven! They are a bit expensive because everything is imported but it's worth every penny. Lately they have monthly specials which have been fabulous deals. We get the gelato on top for an extra $1. We tried the fruit-filled waffles they were good but not amazing like the zuchers. We have been there 3 times and I'm going on Saturday. Always great!

Not good, slacker service

by NicholasXYZ at Citysearch

I was looking forward to good Belgian waffles. What I got was poor service, an unclean place, and a old waffle that was very expensive. Slackers behind counter prefer to talk on cell phone rather than wait on customers. Prices are outrageous (even for European ingredients). Music is too loud, tables were not bussed. Not a pleasant experience.

• Pros: Waffles are pretty good
• Cons: Not good enough for bad service

Amazing and Unique Waffles!!

by konradriccardi at Citysearch

Like nothing you have ever tasted, these zucker waffles are sugary, sweet, and intense!!!.. no need for toppings and you can walk with them in your hand! The take out window is genius.. you can smell them for blocks.

You can eat them anytime you are in the mood for dessert. Also, try melting their authentic italian gelatos ( best I have had in the city) on top .. a la mode. Now they just added fruit filled waffles.. stuffed to the gills with fruit..

$1.84 cappucinos and lattes from illy during the weekdays are available ALL DAY here.. no better deal in town...make that the country... and they handcraft them with imported italian milk (they say they use Belgian water in the zucker waffles too.. I believe it since they are so good) .. if you ask they will let you know the extraction time on your espresso so you can get it perfect every time. They hand out samples all day long of nearly everything in the store if you pass by. I am impressed! Owner says even the powdered sugar, egg, and cinnamon come from Europe.

• Pros: Best waffle you will ever taste and beats the hell out of a doughnut or cinnabon because you can drive with these in your hand
• Cons: NONE

Not for breakfast, maybe dessert

by shanz123 at Citysearch

I was dissapointed with Baladoche, I was really looking forward to it, but the selection was horrible. The choices were limited, and I was looking for breakfast, not dessert. It would be a good dessert, but a mighty expensive one. The waffle was just ok, but the coffee horrible. I would reccoment spending 1.00$ on a waffle style cookie and skipping this place alltogether.

• Pros: Sweet
• Cons: not practical for any meal, too expensive for dessert

Absolutely Delicious!

Baladoche saved my morning recently and made my day after a bad breakfast experience at a nearby La Creperie. Waffles were so yummy! I will go there again, again, and again!

• Pros: Waffles with sugar!
• Cons: None
