    The food was the standout. The seating is comfortable--I love the heavy wood and metal chairs--and the service was friendly and helpful though not very polished. The lobster gets rather lost in the lobster bites, but otherwise everything was sensational, with lots of intense flavors. The fried green tomato was a great starter, and the lavender chicken was succulent, great with the root vegetables. The bar even had a Chartreuse available. A great time.

    We ate here twice in one week. The dishes are inventive and delicious. I highly recommend. My only issue was the noise level was way too high. We couldn't have a conversation with the person sitting across from us!

    Black Walnut offers a beautifully curated dining experience with bold flavors and thoughtful service. I started with the Brussels Caesar—warm, savory, and full of flavor in every bite. For my entrée, the New Zealand lamb rack was perfectly executed. The creamy hummus paired wonderfully with the pickled radish and onion, which added just the right acidity to cut through the richness of the lamb. The pistachios added a satisfying crunch that tied it all together. Dessert was the bartender-recommended lemon tart, which I took to-go. It was both flaky and creamy—absolutely worth the extra indulgence. Big thanks to Tina at the bar, who made the night even better. I asked for a mezcal variation of a Final Word, and she nailed it—smoky, smooth, and a perfect way to end the evening. Service, cocktails, and cuisine were all on point.
