 lightly booked for months in advance.
The sooner you call, the easier it is to get your spot.

from 10 am to 4 pm for future reservations. 
Sorry, but excuse us not answering the phone 
when we can't answer the phone. 
 
We are sorry if our extreme overload for the month
of March was in anyway upsetting to You.
We are grateful to you for continued interest and
support invested into our family's passion.

We are honored by the overwhelming attention
and appologize for missing some of the calls.
Patience is the key, as we did not farm-out 
our dining room management to any remote
companies or answering service.
Balaton provides personal service, always.
                                                                                                   

For Memories and Rebirth
-
We suspended our GoFund donation site, 
that was active for two years and two months. 
You may still hang a ribbon on our May-Tree, or Maibaum
in house by cutting and signing a ribbon for memories.
It has been a long and rocky road, but we are rising.
We will display all the ribbons for First of May. 
Visit and sign our New Guest Book in person.

Thanks to long time supporters / admirers 
we rise as "phoenix" from the ashes,
and we humble to your kindness.
-
Thanks to St Elizabeth of Hungary Church's help, always. 
Please, visit this 130 year old Cathedral, a testament of time.
We shall support and donate to this Historic site, and we support
the Old Stone Church of Cleveland, and other pillars from our past.
- 
Our "new patrons" are delightful and we enjoy telling Balaton's story 
and the history of a culture, explaining why we are a half a world away. 
Food is a strong tie, and having a meal together is 
always a bonding experience. We had seen children growing up 
and keeping Balaton close to their heart while they matured to pillars 
of their families and society. One of our young and first time patron 
declared this opening weekend, Balaton is his new favourite. 
His name is Jack, and we will keep him and the many new families in
our eyes and hearts for a long time to come, as long as we all shall live.
