We don't come to Walt's very often because of the distance from our home but we were there yesterday after a family funeral. Ribs, green beans, tossed salad, mashed potatoes, and toasted rye bread. it was all delicious and we even managed to bring home some ribs. There was plenty of food for everyone. Jennifer did an excellent job of putting everything together. We just finished our leftovers tonight and they tasted just as good as yesterday's. Thank you for a nice private luncheon after a stressful day.

I traveled into town on business and had a lovely dinner with some colleagues of mine. Everyone at our table had a wonderful experience. We made a reservation for 5, and we were sat in one of their semi-private rooms, the Cauthen Room. We didn't realize this immediately, but we were very glad for this bc the rest of the restaurant was quite loud outside of this room. I'd recommend asking for this room if you have a party of 8 or less, if the reservation time allows for this. Everyone at the table enjoyed their food. For appetizers we ordered the Bourbon Burnt Ends and Shrimp Cocktail (x2). The burnt ends were tasty but they were bit tough, though that isn't surprising for burnt ends. And the shrimp cocktail was pretty standard, but very good. Everyone enjoyed their entrees. Most ordered the Catch of the Day special which was halibut on this particular day. I ordered the Black and Blue salad (I'm not a big fish fan), and I would not recommend it. This is my only criticism of Walt's, but the steak served with it was tough, and not extremely well seasoned. I also didn't taste a lot of blue cheese crumbles that is supposed to be served with. I'd recommend offering this salad with one of the 4oz or 6oz filets and cooking it to order. Most other restaurants that offer a similar salad do it this way, so this is what I was expecting. The mango habanero margarita that I ordered was a bit too sweet for me, but if you like sweet drinks and can handle a bit of spicy kick, this would be a good drink for you. It is listed on their Signature Cocktails menu. They also have a Manhattan on their menu that another colleague ordered that he was very impressed with, and it is one of his favorite cocktails. Lastly, we got some coffee with dessert. The turtle cheesecake was a big hit. Rich, but a bit lighter than a traditional cheesecake so it wasn't overly filling after the meal we had. I ordered a slice of cheesecake to go and it is HUGE! It's also notable that it is fantastic. Also, the coffee that was served was lovely. It's a hazelnut roast that wasn't overly bitter, so don't be afraid to order coffee here. Service was wonderful, attentive. Overall, well done. Don't be afraid to ask your server for recommendations if you're not sure what to order.

Service was terrific tonight! It is always hustling and bustling with folks, so if you're looking for a really quiet dining experience, this isn't it. ;) However, the steak, cornbread, and potatoes are super tasty, so give it a try! Plus, they make a wonderful key lime pie (more fluffy, less dense than a typical one). My all time fave is the peanut butter pie! The sweet potato soufflé is lacking in flavor, and the green beans aren't a pick of mine. I feel some brown sugar and pecans or marshmallows would be perfect. And the green beans are just way too soft for my palate. Filet is always perfect, as is the strip steak. And the garlic butter topping is a delicious choice!!! Please give this local fave a try!

Oh what a night!!! You walk into this quaint little restaurant not quite knowing what to expect. Reservations are expected and needed. The bar area is quite nice and the ambiance in the restaurant is truly Kentucky with Derby Cups and Paintings all over the wooden areas all over the restaurant. We sat at a table for 2 by the beautiful, stone fireplace and we were ecstatic about our seats. This is not a place to go to if you need to be out soon, this is an experience!! We had some of the best drinks I've ever had. They have an amazing bourbon menu and I took complete advantage of this. I had the Tournedos as a meal and my husband had the ribs and filet, aptly named the turf and turf. The food is excellent, but the real deal are the drinks, apps and sides!!! This place is quite expensive but worth the wait for reservations and a true experience. We will definitely go again.

Great business dinner here on a Monday night! Appreciate the staff giving us a big table and then having us trickle in over the course of 2 hours as all 7 of us arrived in from 7 different cities around the world. Cool live music, really friendly service, good meat - definitely had the meat sweats that night. Oysters Rockefeller, Brussels Sprouts, bourbon burnt ends - would order all of this again! They were also super flexible with my order b/c I wanted the filet mignon with Scallops and they were very accommodating. Their Old Fashioned comes standard with Buffalo Trace.

Came in on a relatively calm Monday and lucked out and found a spot at the bar. The drinks were quick and perfect and the menu...... oh goodness! After talking it over with the bartender Courtney, I finally decided on the Black and Blue Filets. I have NO idea why she brought out a steak knife because the filets were perfect and completely forkable. The scallops were just right and I couldn't finish that bread even though I wanted to. I couldn't imagine eating desert but after seeing the in-house jerky on display, I had to grab a bag for the road. Great atmosphere, wonderful people and amazing food. 100% will return next time I'm in town.

So, my friend told me we were going to Walt's Hitching Post for dinner and not to dress up. I figured we were heading into a dive. Was I surprised. It's more of a dinner club than a dive. It reminds me of Keeneland Race track, with stone walls and lots of wood. And horse photos everywhere. And there is live music every night of the week! Why didn't I know about this before? Food is good. Think ribs and steaks kinda place. Manly food. And a well stocked bar. All the Kentucky bourbons. Color me happy. I had a crab cake and it wasn't full of filler! In Kentucky no less. Boyfriend had ribs, cause he eats more than I do. Naturally. Prices were reasonable...at least I think they were. If my memory is correct...I wasn't paying. But I would be happy to, cause it was a really nice surprise.

Pulling into Walt's, they have valet parking in the front and a big parking lot in the back to self park. Looks like they also have a smoke house outback. It was our anniversary, and it was the first time that we went to Walt's. The service was very good. Our waitress was nice and attentive, and that there was someone who took care of getting us water when needed. We ordered drinks while we perused the menu. He had an amber beer and I ordered the Eastwood Old Fashioned. I followed up the old fashioned with a second drink that was more fruity, the Fort Wright Filly. Both of my cocktails were good. We ordered a couple of appetizers, I ordered the colossal shrimp cocktail and he ordered the smoked jumbo chicken wings. Both of our appetizers were delicious and the chicken wings were indeed jumbo. When they brought out the appetizers, they also brought out a salted dark rye bread. I could have ate my weight in this bread it was so good! For the main course he ordered the BT's signature strip. It was a 16 ounce New York strip without the bone. He said it was good and perfectly cooked. He ordered it medium rare. I decided to go for the petite surf and turf which was 2 cold water lobster tails served with two 4oz filets. Both dishes were a lot of food to eat and both of them excellent with both of my steaks being perfect medium rare as well. I ordered a crème brûlée, and this was the only place that they really faltered as I would not order that again. The top was burnt and if I can say, crème brûlée is too eggy, then it was. We did get a to-go bag for our meal that was left and it was a nice reusable bag with their name on it. We would go back here again!

If you are looking for a nice dinner in the Northern Kentucky area, look no further. This has to be one of the best restaurant options you can find. I highly recommend getting reservations because they can fill up pretty quick! They do have bar seating if there is just 1-2 people. They have a small parking lot in the back, but also have valet right out front. The Menu is pretty large and there are plenty of options for anything you may have a taste for. They are well known for their Steaks and Chicken. We had a table of 7 of us on a Friday night. The service was fantastic and the food was even better. The Half Chicken is absolutely mouth watering and it comes with a homemade BBQ sauce. They have a full bar to choose from and many classic cocktails. The Espresso Martini has to be one of the best I've found.

Another incredible dinner at Walt's solidifies this unique KY steakhouse as my favorite restaurant in the Tri-State! My husband and I chose to dine here for Valentine's Day - and we received excellent service and delicious food. Our waitress, Colley (forgive me if it's spelled differently!) was fun and down-to-earth. With her attention to detail, she made us feel like we were her only table (even though we knew she was very busy!) We'd definitely request her for our next visit. Our dinner was absolutely perfect from start to finish. We kicked things off with a 1/2 dozen oysters, some escargot, and the bourbon burnt ends. We'd had the first two appetizers in the past - and they lived up to how much we loved them on our last visit. The bourbon burnt ends were phenomenal - crispy, smokey, and coated with Walt's famous BBQ sauce. What more could you ask for? We decided to order one of their nightly specials - the 10 oz. Bison Steak - along with one of their classics - the Braised, Bone-In Pork. The bison was tasty and tender - but our favorite bite of the night was definitely the pork. Every morsel melted in our mouths, and when paired with their creamy orzo, it was truly show-stopping. For dessert, we ate as much as we could of their Bananas Foster, which is a huge portion, even for two people. Walt's continues to set the bar for great food, fantastic service, and an atmosphere you just can't find at other local steakhouses. We can't wait to return!
