We’ve been hesitant to visit the Walnut Room due to food allergies but decided to give it a try. From the moment we sat down, Jesus, our waiter, was so attentive. He noticed our allergen card in the table and immediately addressed it, letting us know he find out anything we needed to know and would talk to the chef personally to see what our son could eat. We’ve always wanted to visit this beautiful restaurant but never did out of fear of allergies. But Jesus helped to make this experience amazing for our whole family. Thank you for taking the time to understand our allergies and walk us through the menu. It was a great start to the holiday season. We will be back again!

This is the first time my friends have been to this restaurant. We got there a little early and they sat us right away. Our server was absolutely amazing and was on top of it the whole time. We ordered appetizers and food and every single person enjoyed it and said how amazing the food was. For dinner for five people, the price was not bad. They even gave us two little plates for both our birthdays, which was very nice. When I go back there again, absolutely!
