Walter's

We came here Sunday for brunch and we were greeted by the most pleasant host and hostess, it was a quick 10minute wait and we were in! Waitress was great too and as soon as we sat down we were handed menus and given water. She was able to switch out my water glass that appeared a little run down making it look dirty. No prob!Food came out quick and hot and most importantly it was banginnn! We had huevo rancheros, chicken and waffles, the kale Caesar salad with anchovies (best part!) and for dessert the key lime pie and a cappuccino. We wouldn't order the key lime again because it didn't quite taste like your typical key lime pie and it was orange hue that we were told was that color because of the eggs. Overall we really enjoyed this place and will return. Go here!!!

We came to Walter's as a party of 2 on a Friday night without a reservation. I got a mango lemonade with vodka at the bar while we waited for a table. It was more mango on the front end and vodka on the back with less lemon flavor, but I love mango so I was happy. Once seated, we ordered the artichoke dip, French dip, and short rib bucatini. I am not used to seeing tomato as part of the base of an artichoke dip, but it added just the right amount of acidity without upstaging the artichoke. We enjoyed it, though it came with a very toasted baguette that we agreed would have paired better with the dip lightly toasted. Both our entrees were delicious. I was deciding between 2 entrees and asked the waitress which one she recommended and she said that the short rib bucatini was relatively new but a big hit. I now understand why. It was so good. The restaurant is a somewhat small space and our table was between the bar, front door, and a wall of windows. While eating this was no problem, but it was uncomfortably tight leaving the table at the end of the meal due to people standing around the bar. While I wish people would not be allowed to hang out between the bar stools and the tables in that one spot, it was otherwise a great time. Nice service too, so I recommend Walter's.

Walter's is a Fort Greene, neighborhood gem. Since moving into Fort Greene almost, twelve years ago we have eaten at Walter's too many times to count. The staff is very attentive, kind and welcoming. I love the cozy atmosphere and, the food keeps us coming back. Without a reservation, the wait for a table can be long. That only speaks to the loyalty, good food, service that you receive when dining at Walter's. I love starting with the oysters. The burgers are delicious - juicy and so tasty. The fries are crispy, thin and addictive. One of favorites is their the Wagyu French Dip sandwich. Served with caramelized onions, a lovely horseradish cream, au jus with Gruyère cheese on a delicious baguette. The fried chicken is crispy and flavorful on the outside and tender in the inside. Just what really good fried chicken should be! Served with one of my all-time favor, comfort foods, garlic, mashed potatoes.We will be back again and again, that's a given. I hope you enjoy Walter's as much as I do!

Great brunch spot! Food was incredible and service was great. I had the chicken and waffles, the fried chicken was so crispy and the waffles were perfect with the best butter i've had in a while. I also tried the salmon eggs benedict which was so tasty and a side of fries which were crispy. definitely recommend for brunch!

Didn't know what to expect, but was so very pleasantly surprised by the food, service and vibe. We shared the bib lettuce, fried chicken and the short rib pasta. All three we 're totally delicious. Fried chicken was served on a bed of mashed with a honey mustard dipping sauce pasta was short rib meat with spaghetti. Both were great. I highly recommend reservations,

Came as a party of two on a cold Wednesday night around 6pm and every seat was full! This place gets busy very quick but the service is just as quick. The steak frite was good - the fries were nice and crispy and the chimichurri sauce was DELICIOUS. Without the sauce, the dish wouldn't have been amazing. We had calamari which was okay - at least crispy and not soggy (not too flavorful). Also had the beef tartare which was delicious! The short rib bucatini had a savory and tender short rib, making the dish good, but probably not something I would order again with the amount of food we had.

I may be from St. Louis, but I know a good french dip when I see one. Walter's french dip is high on my list. I stopped by for lunch and sat at the bar. I, of course, had to get their paloma. It was good. It got the job done for a paloma(I am a paloma snob, it is indeed my death bed cocktail). And, i ordered my french dip. About 45 minutes rolled around and the bar tender handed me the check. I thought this was strange to pay before my meal, but I paid and they told me to have a nice day. I indicated I was still waiting on my food. The bartender was insanely apologetic got one made on the fly for me and even refunded me my meal. An insanely kind gesture he did not need to do.Now, for the flavors. Crispy, salty, shoestring fries: a masterclass. If you do not like shoestring fries it is time to grow up. Walter's fries are pictured in Merriam Webster's when you search for 'perfection'. The wagyu french dip is dang near perfection as well. The baguette is an important component to a french dip. This baguette is superb. And, it is even charred, a touch I have never seen before. I have seen toasted, but not charred like this. As any good baguette, the baguette is crunchy on the crust, but once you penetrate that protective exterior the bread is airy and soft. Horseradish, tender beef, and gruyere all work together to elevate this french dip. A little salty, a little creamy, and rich with the au jus. Walter's will be one of the meals I miss the most leaving New York. Bravo.

We took our daughter and her roommates out to brunch last Saturday. It was nice to have a reservation for the six of us at a booth given how small the place is. The service was terrific and the ambiance comfy and cute. The standout item overall was the fries - thin shoestring potatoes and fresh and hot and delicious! We ordered a third serving because the first two disappeared so quickly!Several of us ordered the eggs benedict, one plain (which means just the poached eggs, no canadian bacon), one with salmon, one with grilled tomato. For my plain eggs benedict: 3/5 - overall dish was not very tasty Ordered a side of bacon: 5/5, well done bacon, five slices I think which is a very generous side serving. I wish I had ordered the bacon earlier so I could add it to the eggs benedict. Each of the main dishes included hash browns, but these hash browns were not crispy, and the flavoring was what we all agreed was a bit weird, we left behind a lot of these hash browns which looked more like mushy diced breakfast potatoes. The cheeseburger of which I had a bite: 4/5, tasty!Cute place, I'd go back just for the fries and consider ordering a sandwich or burger to go with it next time!

I came here for Sunday brunch with my friends. Our reservation was for 11:45 AM - by about 12:15 PM the restaurant was very busy. We sat in a comfy booth - we all loved the fried chicken & waffles. We also tried the French dip sandwich with fries - we liked it but wouldn't order it again. We loved dipping the fries into the French dip! We indulged in mango mimosas and mango lemonades with rum. The drinks were amazing! I cannot wait to return next time I'm in Brooklyn.

Came for a late brunch on a Sunday. It is a small spot across from the park, with friendly staff. The chicken and waffles were average, nothing to note. It's a cute neighborhood spot.
