    Even though it was a busy Valentines Day, our service was excellent, this includes the busboys. We eat here often but this was the first time I ordered pork chops and I wasn’t disappointed. The two big chops were very tender and served in a flavorful sauce with red/green peppers and sliced potatoes. I’m looking forward to eating the other chop for dinner tonight. My husband ordered a pizza which are the best in Chicagoland in my opinion. The sweet sauce gets me every time.

    Went for Valentine’s Day the vibe was love. From the music to all the guest. The service was okay due to the food being late and it was a little dry. My first time and won’t be the last.

    I took my mom for a Valentine's Day lunch. We went around 3 PM, and even though my reservation was at 3:30 PM the staff were nice enough to let me in. Granted it was a low volume of people eating at the time. We were sat near the windows which added to the ambience of our visit. The music made it feel like we were in an old fancy jazz club. I had the French onion soup and the chicken sandwich while my mom had the Walnut turkey club sandwich. Both sandwiches came with well seasoned fries. The food was delicious and our waitress, Annette, was very attentive and sweet. Overall we had a great experience and would definitely go again. I would highly recommend the Walnut Room.

    We had the BEST dining experience at Ken’s on Western! When I made our reservation through Open Table, I asked for a cozy booth for two, as my husband John and I were celebrating an early Valentine’s Day. My request was honored precisely as I had hoped, and we were met immediately by our beautiful and friendly server, Maggie, who wasted no time in procuring me the perfect martini! We both ordered the filet mignon, and they were cooked exactly to order. Sides included chive mashed potatoes and fresh tossed salad and homemade chicken noodle soup. Delicious! Maggie checked in on us multiple times during our meal, replenishing drinks, and then offering dessert and coffee. The turtle cheesecake was outstanding! We had the best(early)Valentine’s date, made extra special by excellent service!
