Walker's Grille, Chef Duane Keller's American on Metro Park Drive behind INOVA Hospital in Springfield, VA - Closed

[thistle]

In my efforts to eat lunch across the 'burbs of NoVA, I had lunch today w/ a friend at Walker's Grille, which is in an odd location behind Inova Alexandria. There's plenty of parking, a built in clientele w/ the hospital & doctors offices, I think it was about 3/4 filled. The space is attractive enough, reminiscent of an office building, a little noisy, & has an outdoor patio that might be nice, when the weather is warmer.

We both got sandwiches, I was craving a club, (which is why I tried this place), so, turkey club w/ bacon & cheddar on wheat toast- large, a little dry, & the fries were a little limp. My friend had the reuben, said it was ok, not outstanding. Service was excellent, so while I won't be rushing back, I think it was just fine...

I always pass this place....and will continue to....btw, it's behind the Springfield Healthplex, sort of across Beulah from the Manchester Lakes Plaza that houses the reasonably good Johnny's New York Pizza and the occasionally not-bad Lucky's....

Any recent comments or are folks just passing it by? Somehow I have never heard of this place considering it's so close to me. I was just looking at their site and they are pushing the farm to table things like many places. Might have to make a visit as the menu looks good.

The few times I've been it has been fair to good, which is about as good as you can hope for down here....

I tried Walker's Grille & Osteria Marzano, which is right around the corner, at the same time & vastly preferred Osteria Marzano, so I never returned to Walkers Grille for a follow up visit.
