Balik Restaurant In Torino

02/08/2025: The 3 stars are for part of the food. Let's start by saying that for €25 all-inclusive, I'm not expecting much (if I'd paid €35, I'd have given it 2 stars). I ate decently. I like home cooking, but this is just too home cooking, in the sense that it seems like it was made by me, even though I'm not very good at cooking, or like the food I used to eat at the summer camp cafeteria. The appetizers were excellent, but the main courses were the real disappointment: aside from being a bit redundant (similar), the pasta wasn't good; it tasted like Barilla and was a bit overcooked. The second pasta dish had a sauce that I couldn't tell what flavor it was; I later discovered it was mushroom. The second course wasn't bad, good, but a bit salty. I found the service good. The atmosphere was quaint, which I really like. Would I go back? No.
