Excellent!! Excellent presentation AND taste! The French dip was the best I have ever had and the sweet potato French fries were fantastic. Service was friendly and the general manager Jon Palmer was very helpful with menu selection. Our while party was pleased with their food. Highly recommend! View all feedback.
Order at the front register, they bring your food. Ordered eggs Benedict and the Mexicanos, subbed for scrambled eggs for over easy. Everything was cooked perfectly and food came out fast. Very happy and will be back!
Andre took our order and was very friendly and helpful. Our food, however, was an unfortunate experience. One dish was overcooked and the other was both over and under cooked simultaneously. This was quite a different experience from our last visit several months ago. We specifically came back for the Asian Nachos, because they were so damn good last time and were disappointed with the quality and presentation comparatively. Danielle made absolutely sure we were happy with our experience before we left, though (thanks Danielle, you're the best! It seems they're going through some sort of transition, so I'm hopeful when I give them another shot, it won't be a let down.
Place is great and has tons of breakfast/brunch options so make sure to check the website. They also open really early for any early risers. Had a cup of coffee and a scone to accompany my meal and I was impressed. Our food and service was prompt and enjoyable, drinks weren't to expensive and the lunch crowd wasn't too busy. Will certainly be returning here!
Black Walnut has become a staple for my go-to restaurants, mainly because it 's a 3 minute walk from my apartment. Overall, they have a great menu, with many options for anyone who is feeling either breakfast, lunch, or dinner at whatever time they go during business hours. I don 't know of many places that have morning happy hours, this one starts at 7 am and goes until 10:30 am M-F. Their 'Frenchie ' (pictured) is AWESOME! I 've also tried their grilled cheese and tomato basil soup. I prefer the soup over the sandwich. They have yummy desserts too. So if you 're looking for a casual place to either brunch with friends or stop by for a quick happy hour, this place is great for that.
Amazing food! Best bleu cheese burger and sweet potato fries. And hot sauce and guacamole. Nice atmosphere too. Try it. The general manager, Jon, gave us great recommendations and was very helpful.
