We had a fabulous dinner to celebrate my daughter’s graduation from Millsaps. We were seated in the little red brick building on the second floor. It was intimate and comfortable but a little noisy. Our server, Pace (I hope I got that right) was fantastic! We could NOT have had better service! The food was absolutely delicious! I had the salmon with a side of truffle risotto and it was sublime! My husband had the lamb chops and said they were the best he has ever had in a restaurant! Everyone in our party loved their food! There’s some pretty delectable desserts, too! You will not go wrong eating at Walker’s Drive In!

We were visiting from out of town, and I was excited to eat at this place, having heard about it, but found it a bit disappointing. Our waiter was nice but disappeared for stretches of time. Our shrimp entree had fish sauce or another dressing not mentioned in the description that overwhelmed the flavor of the dish. It was noisy and busy, which was expected, and the decor is fun. I might recommend this to a friend but would also explore other options.

Walker's is by far our favorite restaurant in the Jackson area. The food is always exceptional as is the service. It is well worth the price. Their salads are always awesome. I had fried kale and it was delicious. We also have the fried oyster appetizer and they were some of the best we've ever had. We love Walker's!

The food was delicious and the servers were wonderful. The one negative comment I have is that the blinds on the window right beside our table were extremely dirty. Since they were inches from our food, this was unacceptable. But again, the food and service were fabulous.
