An unforgettable dining experience! Incredible food, warm hospitality and the views that will take your breath away!

I wish I had gotten the name of our waitress. She made our experience wonderful and we come every year to the Walnut Room since my children were little and they are now 20 and 17. Our waitress took one of the best pictures of our family at the tree, came to our table often refilling our drinks and asking if we needed anything more. She was just so happy and joyful it really added to our experience at the table. She even brought us Walnut Room glasses at the end. We always have a good time at the Walnut Room but our experience this time was exceptional! I thanked her at the end as well, but please treat this waitress well and keep her because she is a shining star for sure!!

We asked for a quiet table, and received one in the back room with a window to the kitchen--perfect. Excellent waiter, with great recommendations and service. We ordered too much, so couldn't come close to finishing it all. Breaded pickles with siracha aioli were outstanding, wedge salad very good (tho dressing was sparse), Gage burger was good, chicken biriyani was very flavorful but too much. Next time we'll split just one entree.

We are celebrating our anniversary and the whole experience was just as perfect! As soon as we stepped in the door the hostess came to us politely and kindly with a big smile on her face In 5 minutes we were seated and the waitress came to greet us very nicely and with a big smile as well, and the lady that poured us some wine also very nice A+ for the entire Team! A+ for the ambience! A+ for the food!

Wonderful food and service. We will definitely return!
