Atmosphere is absolutely surprising, great ambiance. The food was equally surprising, I was in the mood for Italian and I was definitely not sure if it was going to hit the spot, and it hit all the spots. I was delighted and impressed. I will be back. Service was excellent, it was clean and everything was a great experience!

The menu is quite quite diverse. I loved my Tuscan salad, and the salmon I had on top was done perfectly! Friendly staff, comfortable, with an upscale vibe. Inckudes a sports bar at one end.

Trendy, newly renovated space giving art deco vibes. My family and I loved this restaurant: our favorite we tried in Bismarck during our vacation! It was very busy, but the service was good and all the staff we interacted with were very friendly and personable. The menu and craft beer selection were so extensive and everything sounded so delicious! We had a hard time deciding but ultimately got the gochujang wings, cajun tetrazzini pasta, vegetable penne rose, Italian sausage pizzaiola, and Tuscany salad. Everything was delicious, but the tetrazzini was a real winner!!! I also got the pineapple cider, which was very enjoyable.

Wow, this pizza was excellent! Also, had the cheese ravioli. Artichokes on pizza or pasta is a win for me. So fresh tasting, I want to go back soon! I did substitute the pesto sauce for white and it turned out excellent.

We all had pasta. It was excellent as was the service. Nice atmosphere, but gets a little loud. Would definitely eat here again!

Walrus in Bismarck is doing it right. Homemade bread, freshly made pasta, and excellent service. The fries were perfectly cooked and seasoned with sea salt and fresh pepper, and the buffalo chicken wrap was hands-down the best I’ve ever had. You can tell they care about quality from the first bite to the last.

We have been coming to the walrus for years and absolutely love it!!! I have a hard time deciding what to order because everything I’ve tried is so great!! Today I had the chicken Dijon tortellini and it was so good!! My husband had the stroganoff (not pictured) and the was amazing!! I have no words for how good the sauce tasted!! I tried the huckleberry seltzer from Gideon's which was also delicious. We brought my kids and they had Italian sodas which my kids loved very much. They have also done an update on their decor and it looks so good! We will definitely be back. It is one of our favorite places in Bismarck!!

I had an outstanding dining experience at The Walrus Restaurant in Bismarck. The service was exceptional, with attentive and friendly staff ensuring our needs were met throughout the meal. The pastas were incredibly delicious, perfectly cooked, and full of flavor. The pizzas were equally impressive, with a perfect balance of toppings and a crisp, flavorful crust. The bread was fresh and complemented the meal wonderfully, and the Italian sodas were a delightful touch. Overall, everything was top-notch. Highly recommend The Walrus for an excellent dining experience!

My wife and I love eating at the Walrus (or picking up food). You could genuinely point randomly at the menu and be happy with whatever came out. From pizza, to burgers, to pasta, it's all delicious and slightly more elevated than most places that serve the same genre of food. It's nice to see some consistency with their staff too (who always take great care). I recently picked up a food order on my wife's birthday, and they were kind enough to toss in a complimentary tiramisu to treat her! Thanks Walrus for hanging around and being one of our best local restaurants.

We loved our experience here. I got the pesto tortellini, which was delicious and I got plenty for lunch tomorrow too. I'm also so happy to see they have a Drekker Fluff Stuff on tap - I love Drekker Brewing and have only seen it a few places in Bismarck! Our server, Laurel, was incredible, and we really enjoyed talking with her throughout the evening. Thank you Walrus!
