We had a great dinner and experience. This place truly feels like it has been transplanted from Paris. We had a great server that gave us a really nice wine suggestion. We had the cassoulet and Steak Frites “Manion style”. Both were excellent. The truffle profiteroles were surprising and very good. Noise level is high, but adds to the energy of the place.

Maitre D sat us at a table by the window. He said the Waiter we were getting was very good. He was correct! The food came out hot and was very good. I had the famous chicken pot pie and my Mom had the meatloaf. It was my first time dining at the Walnut Room. I will definitely go back and have already recommended it to my Cousin.

The food was excellent. The server was very accommodating. The host needs to be trained. He should not have left us standing when there were plenty of empty tables. The excuse was that the servers were not ready. This was off putting. Bit after that the service was fine.

We stopped in for the cocktail hour, but I’ll definitely be back. We enjoyed the oysters and let’s just say 2 was not enough. I had a great Old Fashioned and the burger…can we say yum! Now the true star of the show were the beef fat fries. I’m not even a fry person, but I finished the entire order and wanted more!
