Editorial Review for Black Walnut Cafe – by Andrea Loera

In Short
Breakfast is served all day at this low-key Village Arcade eatery popular with students and leisurely diners. Already a fixture in the Woodlands, Black Walnut's interior is relaxed and welcoming with cozy chairs and natural elements including an abundance of potted plants. Order from the expansive menu including flat bread pizzas, sandwiches, salads, pastas and lighter snacks. Service is do-it-yourself, much like many of Houston's casual cafes. Be sure to save room for dessert including gelato.

Insider Tips

What to Drink

Sample one of the popular flavored tea varieties. Beer and wine is also served at the restaurant.

Parking

Parking is par for the course in Rice Village. Snag one of the coveted spots in front of the restaurant, otherwise street and nearby lots will eventually reveal a parking place.

I dig their Anderson't 'Bout Time. They're a little skimpy on the bird, but it has a nice flavor. Sometimes the veggies aren't what they should be. Nonetheless, I'd recommend this for a casual bite.

This place has defintely gone DOWNHILL. If I wasn't so disgusted and eager to leave, I would have taken the time to ask for a full refund. My boyfriend and I visited on Sunday, 4/7 and ordered the southwest chicken eggrolls and a burger. First, we waited for over 15 minutes even though the place was dead (rightfully so!) with our buzzer which NEVER went off....Only to walk up to the counter to ask where our food was. Once we got the food, the eggrolls had a sauce that I could SWEAR tasted just like Hormel chili. The most food on that plate was the bed of lettuce they were served on. The burger was charred to black and inedible. Save your money and your time and avoid this place at all costs!!!

Pros: None

Cons: Bad food, bad service
