Most recently I finally was able to give them a try. So glad we did! We came around lunch time and sat at a booth. There were other worker bees grabbing a quick lunch. The service was quick, efficient and friendly, and we ordered the French onion soup to start, and split the fried chicken sandwich and Philly cheesesteak sandwich. The sandwiches come with a side, so one plate we did fries with a house-made aioli and the other plate, their quinoa kale salad. Delicious. Such hearty portions! The bread is so fresh, the meat juicy and ample, and flavors just right. We also ordered beer on tap, shoutout to Oakland United, and tried their house-made hot sauce that they also sell by the bottle. Would love to come back to try brunch here too. I also saw a patron ordering the quinoa kale salad with fried chicken, and yes, that's the vibe! Pricing is fair for the quality and quantity, and street parking available (although the restaurant is located at the bottom of Solano where it tends to be a bit more busy). Women-owned biz, and they also were on Check Please! Bay Area.

We shared the roasted chicken and the risotto. The chicken had an scrumptious crust and was a decent portion with potatoes and an amazing sauce. The risotto was flavored perfectly. My partner tried a mocktail (That's not All) and it was extremely smooth and unusual. We shared dessert (pavlovas with a fruit sorbet) which was only so-so as the meringues were tough and not pillowy as we expected. All in all Juanita and Maude is a great romantic spot for date night or fun for Moms-Night-Out.

I came here a little late on a Thursday, and the bar and kitchen were still open. I started with an espresso martini and it was made to perfection! It was extremely aesthetically pleasing, I did not want to drink it! But when I did, I was quick to order a second. It was delicious! I had several desserts that paired well with the espresso martini. All desserts tasted extremely light and had great flavoring. I definitely want to come back and try some entrees on their menu! Definitely stop by if you are in the area!!

This location has had different management over the years and this was my first time in at the Walnut Tavern and Bar. The ambiance is excellent. It is cozy and intimate. The black coffee is excellent. And my kids liked the sliders a lot. I was very disappointed by the tofu scramble. Note: it also contains eggs! Lucky I'm not vegan but I wasn't expecting that. The veggies listed didn't make it in the scramble, and the "seasonal veggies" were zucchini and yellow squash. Not the veggies I'd like in a scramble, or expect. It also had no seasoning. It was really not good. They were kind enough to refund me. But it was an unfortunate first encounter. I wonder if the regular egg scramble dishes taste better. I may have picked the one thing on the menu that is no good. But didn't leave a thrilling impression. So I could go back for coffee and sliders and maybe cake.

The free entertainment that goes along with your meal just kills your ears and burns your eyes. And as if the 15 dollar entrance fee wasn't enough, they go around trying to sell you leaves for a dollar. Overall, it was just freaking ratchet. Definitely deserves 5 stars.
