Renowned grill masters slow-cook their BBQ ribs in a special outdoor smokehouse. The service and decor are equally old-fashioned.

Terrible Buffet

by Elbo44 at Citysearch

Had Thanksgiving dinner there and first trip through the line no turkey and no gravy. Second trip turkey was there but gravy and everything else was cold. Seems like they don't know how to run a buffet. Worst Thanksgiving ever!!!

This place needs a website so they can get feedback. This used to be a good place to eat.

  • Pros: No pros
  • Cons: Poorly run.

Best Meal in Years

by Lisa GG at Citysearch

The service was top notch. The Jumbo Fried Shrimp were East Coast Shrimp worthy. The Prime Rib with A'Jou was both tender and seasoned perfectly. The Tomato-Garlic salad dressing is unique and very tasty. The sides were well prepared and wonderful as well. The ambiance and misic were relaxing. The ribs have that great smoked flavor and are competion worthy. The ribs are so good as they require chewing and savoring the meat's flavor. Everything was great, even the price. I totally suggest getting the daily special and would recommend this establishment to everyone.

  • Pros: Best Prime Rib Ever
  • Cons: None

I agree still the same

When I was younger and growing up my parents would treat us once a month to the wonderful Walt?s Hitching Post. Walt?s famous Smoke house Ribs all around except for my father, he was a prime rib man he would always allow me a few mouth-watering bites. When I married a man from out of state I introduced him to Walt?s, he instantly fell in love with the place and the smokehouse ribs. A few years back my husband was offered a better position in Oregon and we moved. Once a year we come back to visit family and always our first stop is Walt?s. This summer my whole family got together a party of 20 the place was as welcoming as ever. What made the experience even better was the service. We had the best three servers a person could ask for. I made sure I got their names to spread to everyone how eager these three individuals are to please their customers and their positive attitudes; Fantastic! . Two polite young men Phil and James and the young ladies name was Stella. (Funny girl!). The food was better than ever. Now I am not knocking the older servers they have dedication and I admire that, but I think it?s time to quit when all you do is walk around loudly complaining and without a smile. Well, that was my soapbox moment. I recommend Walt?s to all!

  • Pros: Ribs, House Dressing, Prime Rib, Chicken Livers
