   Hostess is oddly placed. Noise level can be high. Food was good, but mash potatoes would have been better with the Lamb chops rather than hummus for my guest (offer more sides). The first cocktail was awesome (wanted the bartenders name/number...lol), but the second cocktail was lacking, too strong. They were out of the infused alcohol to make the house drink; bummer. They were also out of the grits and shrimp appetizer. Overall, I liked the place. Willing to give it another try.

   First time at BW. Apps were great. Drinks were great. If I were to critique, it would be three small things: 1. I ordered the chicken that’s on the bone. It came in a bowl which made it more difficult to cut and eat. 2. I wish their website had instructions for parking in the parking garage. 3. The rain was very heavy that evening and water was coming out of the AC vent. Hopefully just a one time thing

   The experience was great the food was the best part. The blend of flavors made the taste very unique, but good. We will definitely go back, and yes it is a little pricey, but what good restaurant isn’t.

   We came for our anniversary, which is usually an occasion where we hold out for nicer, more upscale restaurants. This place turned out to be a little more casual than we were expecting, which isn't a bad thing, just not what we were expecting. There seemed to be a company party happening in the restaurant, which caused a lot of noise to carry throughout the restaurant. The atmosphere was more reminiscent of somewhere like Olive Garden. So, it's not bad, just not what we expected. Our service was excellent, never having to wait long for each item and presentation was beautiful. The food was really good, especially the Burgundy Mushroom appetizer, as well as our entrees. I got the Honey Roasted Lavender Chicken, and my husband got the English Beef Rib. Both were pretty good. The beef rib reminded me of pot roast, and the chicken was definitely a honey roasted chicken, but still allowed for the floral-ness of the lavender to shine through. The cocktail we ordered was great. The slice of chocolate cake had a really good ganache frosting, but was ultimately a slice of chocolate cake, so maybe try one of the other desserts if you're looking for more of an experience. Overall, we enjoyed our time and would recommend anyone to try it at least once! Thank you, Black Walnut!

   I was extremely impressed by Black Walnut. Parking: As anyone knows, finding parking for a restaurant downtown is a pain. Black Walnut however has plenty of free parking. Greeting: We were greeted timely and sat and drinks were taken and brought back in a timely manner. Food: The food is to die, highly recommend paying extra for the steak. Environment: A very business casual vibe. The perfect vibe for a date. Service: We were checked up on constantly to make sure everything was okay.

    Easily my favorite place to eat in OKC right now. I dream about the Lavender Chicken!
