Restaurant of the month: Black Walnut Café

The Black Walnut Café opened last December and has been packed with customers ever since. The restaurant definitely deserves the hype. It features a gelato bar and touch screen soda fountain. They also serve breakfast until 1 p.m. and there’s something on the menu for everyone. On my first visit there I was overwhelmed by the menu (in a good way). There are pages of delicious entrées to choose from. Finally, I decided on the chicken croissant sandwich. I love croissants but was slightly skeptical that the chicken and other elements of the sandwich were going to get soggy, however I was pleasantly surprised that the croissant was toasted and crispy and the chicken was perfectly seasoned.  Black Walnut has a great list of reasonably priced snacks and appetizers including fried pickles, quesadillas, and more, making it a great place for a study group with friends. Next time you’re looking for a quick bite to eat, try the Black Walnut Café.
