Um local extremamente agradável para desfrutar de uma típica refeição portuguesa. Em Lisboa, tem-se tornado cada vez mais difícil encontrar um sítio que ainda preserve a verdadeira alma Lisboeta, mas no restaurante 'A Balança', isso é garantido. A refeição foi incrivelmente autêntica, e a simpatia do senhor Jorge, que nos atendeu com um sorriso caloroso, tornou o atendimento memorável. Sem dúvida, é um lugar a revisitar. A comida é deliciosa e os preços são bastante acessíveis. Recomendo vivamente o cozido à portuguesa aos domingos – foi dos melhores que já provei :)
