    5th or 6th visit to the Walrus room. And as in all the previous visits it was perfect. We had an early meal as this was a last minute reservation and they were booked. Prime rib was excellent as were the vegetables and mashed potatoes. Our waiter was attentive, but not over bearing. If you have never been here put it on your list worth the trip, just reserve a table early as they are always booked.

    Ours was a lovely experience from beginning to end. Our server, while new to this job, was attentive and quickly got answers to questions she was unsure about. The seasonal burrata was exceptional as an app. I enjoyed the scallops as an entree, my husband the Waygu sirloin. The crème brûlée for dessert was the perfect finish to a wonderfully satisfying dinner. I certainly hope to return and try some other menu items. Don’t hesitate to visit the Walrus Room for a special dinner out!

    We’d been wanting to try the walrus room for quite a while. Overall, it was a good experience. Our waitress was great. Most of the food was good to very good. The crab artichoke dip was delicious as were the scallops. I got the porterhouse medium-rare and it was a bit dry and slightly overcooked. Didn’t care for the Béarnaise sauce, rather tart. Neither of us cared for the roasted vegetables.
