• Steak • Roseville
Booked 90 times today
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 6 or more.

    What a breath of fresh air! We went for a birthday celebration. The staff immediately kicked it off by honoring our celebrant with a glass of cava. The service and exceptional experience continued from there. On service, our server was the best we've had in a decade at least. She kept an eye on us, stopped by when needed and never left us looking for her. She also joined our celebration, making it extra special. On food, everything was beautifully presented, high quality, well prepared and fairly priced. Drinks were absolutely delicious. And the environment was fun and energetic without being overpowering. Finally an experience the way is supposed to be. Thank you!!!!

    We had an amazing culinary experience last night at P.S. Steak last night with friends. We shared the large Chopped Salad which was plenty for all of us. The steaks three in our party ordered were raved about. And what can sometimes be an afterthought, the half-roasted chicken was so tender and juicy. Definitely a restaurant to put on rotation.
