Got sick (instant diarrhea) on the Chicken Parmesan eaten here a couple of months ago. The dish looked like it had been prepared hours ealier, with a thick, hardened charred surface on the bottom of the chicken. The number one reason for food poisoning is having protein served that has sat in that no-man's land temperature zone for too long... more

This restaurant is very good but I thought it was much better when the Pallotta family owned it. I tried to talk to the new owner to see why he is not taking down the name Pallotta's but he will never give me and my husband an answer. I personal think it is wrong to keep the name up on... more

I live in Denver CO. and when I visit my sister in the Woodlands she takes me to Black Walnut. We love everything we have tried there. Last week I had a pasta mango salad that I would love to learn to make at home. The next day we went back for lunch and I had a blue cheese burger... more

Come early any morning (before 9:30) for breakfast and you’ll get hot yummy food, your order will be correct and your dishes will be removed politely when you are done. Our seat preference is high back chairs (I feel royal lounging in them after my meal) but they have booths and tables inside and out. We have never had a... more

One day, I ventured to The Woodlands from Huntsville, TX to my favourite spot, The Black Walnut, on Research Forest . I always order the Salmon Dinner, US$10.00, a great value, but on this day, the price had risen to US$16.00 because George, the owner, was forced to sell and settle with his wife in a divorce. Nevertheless, the salmon... more

This restuarant has a great atmosphere and a good concept however the dishes and silverware are ALWAYS dirty and gross. Look at your plate closely instead of the food that is on it and I guarantee 9 out of 10 times you will find old food and other things that are not supposed to be there. Try finding a clean... more

This is one of my favorite places in The Woodlands (I'm a resident). When I say "lush" I mean "nestled in the trees" as is most of The Woodlands. Food is great, inside is all wood, dessert bar is incredible, service is ok (given that you get the food from the bar in the back). As to the four decimal... more
