Reviews for Walnut Street Cafe in Philadelphia, PA
Cute restaurant with lovely, unique dishes. Both the host and server were really friendly and helpful. I had the ricotta... ravioli with roasted butternut squash which wasn’t bad, but lacked flavor in my opinion. I’d definitely come back though totry another one of their seasonal dishes! Read more
Modern elegance with beautiful view and lots of air. Sophisticated dishes, deep flavor and creative approach. Friendly stuff.... Interesting cocktails ???? perfect place to spend time with friends and family. But tiramisu must be bigger ???? Read more
Overall, I had a good experience at this restaurant. I arrived for a weekday lunch and was seated immediately. They gave me the... option of sitting inside or outside, both providing great scenic views and decor. I ordered the Fried Chicken Sandwich with theSide Salad. The service was really quick, getting my food within 15 minutes of ordering. I found the salad a little small andthe chicken a little too burnt on the ends. Despite this, the meal was delicious and I finished it all! Would recommend thisplace if you're looking for a quick bite with speedy service. Read more
I really enjoyed myself. I went for my birthday dinner. It was a surprise and I had never heard of the place. We sat outside... so I only saw the inside for a few moments but what I saw was beautiful. The outside was very quaint and my husband said itreminded him of L.A. It is next next to a very busy and loud road which definitely spoiled the mood somewhat. Some planters orsomething to break it up and make it feel more intimate would be great. There was a person off the street asking all the tablesfor money. What can you do? It's Philly. There were some beautiful views of the Penn medical district and downtown. Lanternflies everywhere. The food was delicious. The timing of the courses was a little off but they don't usually do prix fixe. Itwas West Philly restaurant week. Everything was seasoned beautifully and the wait staff was friendly and accommodating. Thetomato soup came with these ridiculously thin sliced crostini that were so crunchy but melted in your mouth. It was the perfectaccompaniment to the soup. The soup was a little heavy on black pepper. The pasta had this intense corn flavor and zucchini. One of the best things I have had in a while. The watermelon ice was so refreshing and was dusted with Tajin. I'm stealingthat idea. My husband had this tiramisu made with coconut cream. It was lick the dish good. It was everything. I will goback. Cute cute place with a somewhat casual feel that mixes perfectly with a little fine dining flair. Read more
Sunday brunch at Walnut Street Cafe is fantastic. We got the steak and eggs, waffles, and a side of bacon. To wash it down the... mimosa kit (with two flavored juices) was a good addition. All very delicious. Live music is the perfect cherry on top. Read more
Interesting and diverse menu selections at a reasonable price; portions were plentiful. Was pleasantly surprised by the live... entertainment upon our arrival. The mimosa kit option was different and enjoyed by our party. Staff was pleasant and food wasserved hot and not rushed. Would visit again when in the area. The only issue was they were out a a few items on the menu,which resulted in alternate meal choices for us. Read more
Overall a lovely place! I will say that our waiter, Cole, was not very personable or friendly. He was attentive and... accommodating but not friendly. The food was good and the prices weren’t horrible. For the food I would come again but not forour waiter. The hostesses were friendly, though. Seating is spacious and very aesthetic. Read more
While not the most convenient place to get to, when we finally found parking and got inside, the experience was great from start... to finish. They had a nice lunch menu and I got the artichoke flatbread and my friend got the gnocchi. We split the side ofbrussel sprouts. The portions were appropriate size, we both finished without having leftovers. The brussel sprouts side wasactually surprisingly a really generous portion and super yummy, highly recommend! We both loved our entrees too. Such greatflavor combinations, I loved it! Solid vegetarian options, I had multiple things to choose from. The inside is so cute right nowfor Christmas! Read more
