Reviews Walker's Bluff

This venue is a true gem of Southern Illinois! I have frequented Walker’s Bluff for years and am continually blown away by it’s exquisite decor, excellent music and creative events. Three of the most beautiful weddings I’ve ever been to were hosted here by the AMAZING Kelcey Keith. She coordinated a bridal shower this spring that blew me away. I was actually brought to tears by the elegant set up. I’ve been to her Wine and Yoga in the vineyard and in the cave—- how cool is that!!!! Our dental office looks forward to Dr. Gustave’s annual party here EVERY year and each year it seems to top the last. I could not believe they brought in hot air balloon rides one year and the food is always top notch with seafood and wine. I could go on and on. Wishing the best for the future of this venue and I’m supportive of efforts toward the development of The Resort. It is always a pleasure to bring friends and family to see the cave and beautiful tasting room/restaurant. I want to extend a very special thank you to Kelcey Keith for years of memories at the beautiful Walker’s Bluff!

Walker’s Bluff is such an awesome place! ..From the Tasting Room, to the Wine Cave, & Legends Venue (where I’ll be DJ’n this coming weekend). It’s scenery and wine make for a terrific time no matter the occasion! Melissa Lewis is great to work with if you’re looking to book events here!

Walker's Bluff is such a Beautiful place! Everything from the General Store to The Events that are hosted here. I loved working with Kelcey Keith! She is a very warm person and knows how to listen and help and give awesome ideas! Always on time for meetings,messages with quick responses. Such a pleasure to work with. Thank You Kelcey for all your hard work.

Great concert tonight! Sara Evans, Hollerboys, Kali Lynn were amazing. Mary Jane took such good care of us! Thanks Mary Jane for the great service! I have been to past events that Kelcey Keith has coordinated as well! So impressed with your staff!

I visited The Tasting Room for the first time a couple weeks ago. As soon as I walked in I was impressed by the beautiful scenery and decor, as well as the prompt and courteous service. Dani greeted us with a genuine smile and directed us to our table. She brought waters and recommended Moscato wine for me and the strawberry mossie to my friend. Both were excellent. She also suggested we have the pretzel appetizer, it was delicious! She was very attentive throughout our entire experience, as well as friendly and super funny. She never came to our table without a smile on her face. She told me her favorite item on the menu was the pork chop. I don't usually eat pork, but I decided to try it and I'm glad I did. It was cooked perfectly. She also told me about the corn chow. I was skeptical, but it was also very good! At the end, my friend wanted dessert. Dani recommended the bread pudding. I have never been a fan of bread pudding before, but this was one of the best desserts I've ever had! All of Dani's recommendations were perfect, and I never felt like she was being overbearing or trying to push me to spend more money. My friend and I made small talk with the table next to us who was also served by Dani and they agreed that she did an outstanding job. I've never left a Google review before, but I felt like she deserved to be recognized for her incredible service. Once we were done, Dani chatted with us a little and told us about the cave. We walked down and looked at it. It was beautiful! All in all, my experience at The Tasting Room was one of the best experiences I've had in a restaurant. My friend and I had a wonderful time and we plan to come back and ask for Dani next time we are in the area.

Thank you for the opportunity to hold the year-end banquet for our American Inns of Court! The venue was perfect, and we are so grateful for your assistance in helping us schedule this despite the recent circumstances. If a Supreme Court Justice enjoyed his time here, you will too!
