    Always good. Tyler, our server was prompt, helpful and attentive. It was a very busy Friday evening with a full dining room yet our orders were taken and served in a reasonable amount of time. Thank you for making dinner😉

    We had a wonderful evening with exceptional service and outstanding food. It was a pleasure running into familiar faces from town. The crème brûlée and espresso were the perfect finish to a delightful dinner. We will definitely be back!

    Excellent and attentive service. Our food arrived quickly and of good temperature. The only downside was a very large group of teenagers in the same dining room and the noise level was very high.

    Hi Carolyn, Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback! We are glad you enjoyed your meal and apologize for the noise level. We are working on solutions for that moving forward. We hope to serve you again.

    Overall the dining experience was enjoyable however it got off to a questionable start as the hostess at the front desk had no record of the reservation we had made on your website just three hours prior to our arrival. The manager assisted her in finding us a table although the restaurant was busy and clearly understaffed at the time. We felt sorry for the waitress as she was apparently the only server covering the entire dining room until additional servers were to come on duty a half hour later. Nonetheless she did an excellent job under the circumstances and the food was better than we could have hoped for. All in all we will return again, but will likely make our reservation by phone. We were seated in a very noisy area and would have preferred a table in one of the quieter areas.
    Walker HouseResponded 6 days ago
    Hi Don. We are sorry to hear that there was a little mix-up with the reservations, but we are glad that you were assisted promptly and effectively! Thank you for your compliments to the staff we had on, we know who was serving you that day and will be sure to pass that on to her. Reservations by phone are much better to ensure that we are meeting your expectations and seating preferences. We look forward to serving you again soon in the future.
