We were excited to visit Walnut Speak Easy. We found the place to be warm and inviting. Service was great. The place looked great.
We ordered five items. Two of the five were really great. The other three were in the ""not so good"" category. We were there during their ""First Tuesday of the Month Greek Night"". So the mediocre quality might have been accounted to the kitchen needing to handle to many items. The Greek Items might have been prepared awhile before hand so that might account for the issues with those items. Items on their regular menu might be much tastier.
Items we had......
--Stuffed Greek Grape Leaves - quite delicious and sauce was very nice. ***
--Chicken Salad - very good as well. ***
--Chili - too spicy and had some odd flavors. Others might find it tasty. Everyone at our table did not. -
--Sauteed Greek Shrimp - Rubbery and no flavor. Tasted like it had been cooked awhile ago and left to warm.
--Lamb - Overcooked
Overall, the place is very nice. And I hope that they are able to make a go of the place. But they may need to limit the menu to fewer items that they know are going to be prepared well.
Pros: Nice decor
Cons: Some entrees not good
