    It’s really pretty inside the walnut cafe but the food wasn’t as good as I was hoping.

    I had so much! I had a brunch for my birthday/ask my best friends to be bridesmaids. One of my friends brought me a cake and the host and I believe the manager were nice enough to cut it for us, as well as provide a candle. They really made my day extra special. The steak and eggs was delish!

    Dishes were a little overpriced.. we got a “crab” salad that was claimed to be filled with “tons of jumbo lump crab”, there were only 5 pieces of crab for $18. So that was disappointing. Side dishes were overpriced too for the value. Service was great and decor/vibe is awesome otherwise

    Fabulous brunch. John was incredibly friendly and provided excellent service- just the right amount of attention balanced with privacy. The food was very good - my husband has the daily special omelet and it was perfectly cooked. I had the French toast which was amazing - light, fluffy with just the right amount of sweetness - bacon went along with it very well. The French toast alone will bring me back and add the quality service and this is the new go-to place for brunch. Absolutely would recommend.

    Friends and I went for Brunch on a Saturday late morning. Food was good, Service was slow. I would have liked the coffee refills to be quicker while we had the long wait for our meals. Overall ambiance was good.

    So, beautiful please with great service, but food was strangely underwhelming for this price point. Dishes arrived under seasoned and just barely warm which was even more inexplicable given that the open kitchen was 10 feet away. Really, in a city with some very very good restuarants, this is just not that good. I would go there for a drink since it is a very nice space but not more than that.
