Overall very good experience. Food and price were very reasonable. They charged us $5 to store a birthday cake in their kitchen without telling us of the cost. Did not really like that. Would still go back and highly recommend.

From the appetizers to the drinks to the desserts, it was a knockout experience. Many and our party had never been to an Italian dairy restaurant. One of us was even a true Italian and was blown away by the quality and accuracy of the preparations. Those who have never visited before are putting this restaurant on their A-list to return. Our waiter and his assistant could not have been nicer. And everyone appreciated the close in parking.

We came down for my daughter's first Walnut Room experience and it was nothing short of amazing. Our server Lex was so kind and attentive, he took his time to go over the menu and answer questions, and despite how busy it was he did not rush his time with us at all. I had the salmon which was so yummy, and my mom got the burger that came with the worlds best fries. My daughter had the mac and cheese which she talked about the whole way home bc it was 'the cheesiest' (step aside Kraft) it was such a great time and of course the winter fairies made it even more magical.
