Wally's Desert Turtle

"In an increasingly turbulent and fickle restaurant world where they come and go, it’s rare to find this caliber of hospitality and decadence that endures the test of decades. The reason is clear, currently the third generation of the same family passionately oversee and operate the establishment. You will likely find the owner there any given weekend, as did we. Each table is met with a team of efficient and doting attendants, in and out exactly when you need them and always nearby. The decor is truly timeless and opulent, an ode to the old Hollywood charm that must have once existed in these parts. Live jazz music persists. Dinner enchants. My wish is that nothing change here for future years."

"MOST OUTSTANDING PLACE ever! and I’m going to counter user named“R Reviews” negative review with everything that exists! The carpaccio is beyond excellent!! in fact, it’s one of the dishes that keeps bringing me back here over and over. When it comes to the style, it is far from outdated! This is one of those restaurants that is your TIMELESS, CHIC AND CLASSIC STYLE! Which means it’s never gonna change and it never goes out of style and it’s one of the reasons I love it so much you don’t find this level of elegance at places anymore! Madalyn, her father and mother run this place so well and treat every person in a personal manner so they feel the most welcome! Yes, it’s pricey, but the food is so worth the price. I have never been disappointed with a single meal or menu item that I have ordered every time I come here. We have been coming faithfully for four years now since we discovered this wonderful restaurant.! Timeless classic style excellent high-quality food like you would find in Europe. The meat 🥩 are always perfect and tender. The desserts 🍮 loaded with flavor and high-quality cream made from scratch every day. The coffee ☕️ is beyond excellent the perfect level of being roasted, but not a burnt flavoring yet smooth on your tongue.! My favorite drink 🍷 is the Lady Lavender"

"Unbelievable that R Reviews would give this unique & magnificent restaurant 2stars. Some people can never be pleased. Their joy is found in being miserable or complaining. I hope people reading negative reviews will focus on the positive ones, as they are more accurate. I come from a generation where quality and excellence was the norm. The food, dessert & coffee - delicious, superb quality, & excellent flavors. The Chilean sea bass accompanied with a delectable sauce, kale, veggies, black rice was superb. Wally’s is iconic & classic, evoking yesteryear. The atmosphere - definitely a step back in time of elegance, genuine personalized service and attention, beautifully decorated with etched mirrors, soft lighting, white linens, waiters with crisp white shirts, black tie & vest. The overall dress attire is classy - rare these days. Tony B., a talented musician provided lovely soft background music. In essence our evening was memorable - the entire experience was extraordinary. Please never change. Thank you to the staff for making our evening unforgettable."
