Happy National Coffee Day!

For more than 15 years, our friends at Geva Coffee have been behind the beans we brew at Black Walnut. This Houston-based, family-owned roaster has been part of the local coffee community since 1974 and we’re proud to call them a longtime partner.

Here’s to local partnerships and a great cup of coffee.

To our valued guests:

It is with a heavy heart that we announce the closure of Black Walnut in Dallas after eleven incredible years of serving the community. This decision was not made lightly, but after much reflection, we believe it is the right time to close this chapter on January 13, 2025.

We want to express our deepest gratitude to each and every one of you. Your unwavering support, whether through a kind word, a regular visit, or simply sharing a meal with us, has been the cornerstone of our success. You embraced us from the very beginning, and for that, we will forever be thankful.

Thank you for allowing us to serve you, and for being a part of our story.

With heartfelt appreciation,

Black Walnut Management

This Southern-inspired classic is elevated with succulent shrimp wrapped in hardwood smoked, crispy bacon, served over creamy grits bursting with flavor. It’s the perfect dish for indulging on a chilly day. For the ultimate pairing, enjoy it with a Shiner B**r on draft, a dark l***r with a rich, malty sweetness that perfectly complements the dish’s savory notes.

📸 Bacon Wrapped Shrimp & Grits - Bacon Wrapped Shrimp Cajun style, House-made Alfredo sauce, Tomatoes, Green Onions, Chives
🍺 Pairs well with Shiner Bock
