"We had a 5 pm reservation and were seated at 4:55pm. Server got our drinks and we said we were ready order and she said she would be right back. We did not see her for 10-15 minutes (She had another section her 1st night she said).In the meantime, multiple tables were seated in a row and when we were given a new server, no one knew who was seated first, so our order was not taken until 5:30pm. Multiple tables around us that were seated after us had their orders taken and got their food before us. I do not blame the waiter. He was wonderful and hustled and did all he could in the situation. I realize that it is hard to get help these days and they were obviously short staffed, but I think some training needs to be done with hostess staff or something put in place to let wait staff know the order guests were seated. That being said everyone was friendly. Now on to the food: They used to serve bread, unsure if that is the case anymore as we didn’t receive any. My walnut salad, which is supposed to have goat cheese according to the menu, came out with Gorgonzola, so it had to be replaced. We ordered 2 meals to eat there and 2 to go entrees. When we received those, one of them was missing the salad, so the server had to go retrieve it for us. The 2nd one we realized after getting home (ordered blackened salmon blt) was supposed to be on wheat according to the menu and it was on marble rye. I would also say the dishes that were on special that we had ordered could have used a little more of the lemon garlic sauce/was dry. We want to try again sometime, but I hope management will take into account the things that need to be addressed/improved upon as this was not our best experience nor our first at Walnut. I know everyone is trying to do their best we just hope they will take note. The reason I put a low score for value is due to the time we had to wait and the incorrect items. The bill was well over $100 for 4 meals before tip and no appetizers or dessert ordered."

"we chose the restaurant because of its location and because we wanted seafood. it was close to our hotel (the hilton) and eating was nothing extraordinary and the prices were not cheap so we expected a little better than we got. the main reason for my low rating was that service was terrible. there were barely tables in the restaurant and yet our server could refill us within 30 minutes after our drinks and our main courses lasted over an hour. They did not seem to have good service/table managment skills as they would serve the table 2 of us, but not even check on us after reviewing on them and was only able to do a thing at a time when they served us. for example, instead of our drink and app order (we knew the app we wanted because it took them over 15 minutes to get for our beverage order) they only got our beverage order and ran away before we voluntarily ask our app. and, instead of even considering that we like to order dinner when we ordered our app to complete it again, so we do not. as our appetizer finally helped about 40 minutes after sitting the food runner and got us another round drinks. our server was simply inconspicuous and not available. she said something about another table in a next room, but when I got up to find them at one point, there were no tables in this room. she just seems to be training. I know it's hard to find good help in these days, but investing in training through the restaurant would help those who find them to work to better serve. as server for many years I know that there are possibilities to make their efforts more efficient. unfortunately our server did not receive this insight. If we were in any kind of hurry, it would have been worse. please train your personal cafe blue!"
