The Walnut Grill concept began in 1999 when four friends joined together with a common goal: to develop a full-service restaurant with a local feel, inviting to our guests, and serving them with outstanding food and beverage in Pittsburgh, PA.

All of our menu items are made with fresh, quality ingredients.

Each of our exceptionally credentialed and talented staff is fully committed to our mission of taking care of our guests with a local feel and serving them with outstanding food and beverage. From the establishment of our first restaurant in Pittsburgh PA, we have expanded to 10 locations… bringing that same desire to take care of every guest that privileges us with their presence… Our guests just keep returning and that is the reason we just keep expanding. 

Our guests are just that, guests. We strive for each to feel welcomed, enjoy their experience, and leave with a sense of satisfaction that drives a desire for many returns.
