A group of 10 of us ready to eat and drink. They refused to join two tables together. We t elsewhere to spend a bunch of money.

I had the Howler Burger fries where the best thing about it. All I could taste was the cheap butter flavored soaked Burger bun from the dirty flat top. Made me nauseous for $20 read more

Gotta say don't let the overall 3 stars dissuade you from going to The Red Monkey. The food was great! The atmosphere was great! The service was spot on and very friendly! We ordered a variety of things from the blackened fish tacos to a grilled cheese to a burger and fries. All tasted great and were cooked perfectly. The fries are really tasty too! Definitely a must go to on our next trip to Walla Walla. read more

Sports bar that wishes it was a night club, and you can bring your kids. Food is hit or miss, drinks are mostly vodka based and taste like candy. Very lazy bartender, complained when I ordered an old fashioned and told me that "girls shouldn't drink whiskey" Took forever to get my drink and it was the worst old fashioned I've ever had. read more

This place is completely underrated on Yelp. Completely. Great staff, great food and a great atmosphere. The bartenders are attentive and fun. The wait staff are beautiful humans. The cooks are overworked and yet still produce fantastic food. The monthly changes on different tacos are fun! Stop in for a drink and grab an appetizer and check them out. Don't let the haters on here detract from the fun! If Mia is working, sit in her section or at the bar if she is bar tending). She is amazing. read more

Typical bar food. Not horrible but NOT the best. Capones in North Idaho is waaaayyy better

Let me start by saying 3 stars still feels too good I have eaten at this establishment well over 100x in my life including the time I worked here and every time I try to give it a go again it's worse every time. For starters it was hard to find a table that wasn't "closed off by staff" or full of dirty dishes. I could tell they just had a rush because the waitress was ready to get it all done since they were closing in an hour and a half which totally took away from every possible part of the dining experience for me. My fries had to of been either sitting in a bowl out of the heat for well over 30 min or just sat in the window for way too long they were disgusting and cold. The burgers at the red monkey and stone hut have always been my favorite and this time it was the most sub par burger I have had in all of walla walla in a long time. I hate to leave bad reviews but I'm so angry that we spent $70 and didn't even get asked if we wanted boxes and didn't get our refills until we were ready to walk out the door and the refills weren't even the original sodas we had. I understand it's the end of a long night but AS A SERVER MYSELF that is EMBARRASSING behavior. This was a pregnancy craving I had all day long and was hoping it would be like it used to be. This was my VERY LAST time trying it and trying to be understanding. Bad all around. read more

My daughter got reservations for her Homecoming dinner, but when her boyfriend and her got there the said they were too busy and canceled their reservation. SERIOUSLY If it's important, it's better to dine somewhere else. read more

Pulled pork sandwich, very unique with pickles, slaw and cheese. Great food, relaxed atmosphere. Great local place for lunch or dinner

My girlfriend and I have been on a fitness journey but for our cheat meal this week, we decided the best place to go was "Red Monkey" in our local Walla Walla! It's Tuesday so we figured it wouldn't be too busy... boy we were wrong. Fortunately, we had a early dinner at approximately 5:00 PM so we were able to be seated right away. Our waiter was very friendly and helpful! The menu just recently changed so I wasn't able to get my old favorite, I had to step out of my comfort zone this time. Tuesday is Taco Tuesday, so my girlfriend and I both ordered some Tacos and drinks! Even though the place was packed with hungry customers, our food didn't take too long to arrive at our table! My girlfriend and I enjoyed our wonderful tacos with 14 different TVs all around us! To top of the great meal, we selected the gooey brownies for desert and they were delicious! The price was right, the food was great, and the service was excellent. The red monkey will always be one of my favorites and I recommend it to friends and family! Thanks for reading(: read more

food took 45 min to arrive both meals were cold we arrived in time for a late lunch with time to make my medical appt. food arriving made us rush and then did not enjoy cold food. one star read more

This review is for service only as we didn't eat here. Was really wanting to as the menu sounded delicious. We were a party of 3 and it took 10 minutes just to have them take our name for the wait list. Told it would be about 30 minute wait. 30 minutes turns into 40 and then we check to see where we are on the list. We were next so we were happy again. Then a gentleman walks past us on his way out and tell us it was horrible service and we should run for the hills and find something better unless we have 3 hours to spare from that point. We then notice that no one in the packed restaurant is actually eating. There was one couple with food. Said something to the receptionist about this and we were given major attitude and she stormed off. So we bounced. Who ever is managing this place is overwhelmed and needs Gordon Ramsey to come help out before it tanks. read more

Don't do it. Food not worth mentioning. Just keep driving and shell out $10 more bucks for a more memorable dining experience. read more

Food was good with large portions. I had the BALT and there was plenty of bacon on it. I hate when restaurants skimp on the bacon! My husband had the smoked chicken tacos skillet style ( without the taco shells). He loved his. We also got the Mac and cheese with bacon to take home. All the food was fantastic and our server was excellent. Very attentive with good food advice. read more

I'm a fan of the monkey out of necessity. I've been in Walla Walla several times over the years during football season and they are the only place on town that I could find with the PAC 12 network showing the Husky game. This weekend we were in town for golf and wine tasting, and had a little time before dinner. UW had a late kickoff so a few of us headed down for a beer and a ballgame. I appreciate the beer list and numerous taps. The Kung Fu Death Monkey Double IPA might be a bit much, but you can find more mainstream brews. As for food, this is a pretty much a sports bar so set your expectations accordingly. It's not fine dining, but it's fine. My food experiences here have been chicken wings (very good) and a burger (good). They have the games I want to watch, many screens for multitasking, and a good selection of beers. Dawgs won big every time I've been there so I'm a Red Monkey fan. read more

Was in Walla Walla in a business trip. We ate dinner here. I was extremely tired from the long drive and meeting earlier in the day so I just went with a hamburger. The burger seemed to be a premise not fresh pressed so I was disappointed n the flavor and could eat it all. It wasn't necessarily anyone's fault, I just get a weak stomach on certain, lower quality beef products. I know this about myself and should have asked more questions before ordering, but like I said I was tired and just ordered something easy. I do have to say the bun was very cute and the fresh fries were absolutely delicious. Service was good and attentive to those who were drinking alcoholic beverages, but I was drinking water and had to wait a long while for a refill and only after I asked for it. Pet peeve of mine, in that I shouldn't have to sit with an empty glass whether it be water, soda, or alcohol. read more

Recently spent some time in Walla Walla and this place was recommended by a local in town. It was so good that we came back twice. Varied menu with options for everyone. Great general seating area and just a block from central Main Street. Great for families, singles and couples. The servers were all very friendly and attentive. Highly suggest that if you want to try someplace a little more off Main that this is the place. Parking is ample any time of day. read more

My wife and I visited this place for a date night while visiting Walla Walla. We wanted something a little more casual after a more formal afternoon of wine tasting. We were immediately impressed with the atmosphere. Cool decor, large projection screen showing the women's World Cup, clean, music wasn't too loud. Everything was great. We split the Money Mac Bites and the garden burger and upgraded to the onion rings. Again, everything was great. The Mac bites had a bit of spice and were just really tasty. The garden burger was cooked perfectly and had really fresh veggies and avocado. The onion rings were some of the best I've ever had. The trifecta was that the service was good, too. If we find ourselves in Walla Walla again, we'll definitely be coming back here. read more

very unpleasant odour as you walk in: what is that had to sit outside . food is good and service good, but the smell is very off putting . read more

Just say no. We tried dinner here. The server dumped our drink over my husband, and our appetizers along with the whole table! A huge hot mess! Our server then disappeared. Never saw her again! Another server appeared. Called himself "Matt". They did not want to replace the food they covered in wine. Originally the food was good. But service was a atrocity! Except for the front desk! Again just say no to bad bad service! And no accountability. Zero courage! read more

Cold fries, root beer float spilled all over my friend. Nachos had fake cheese. Overall was a bad experience.

Pass' in through and stopped for a late lunch. Service was ok, nothing special. On the slow side and considering the space allowances with the current pandemic wit fewer customers you'd think it would be faster wouldn't cha? Had some fish and shrimp special with cole slaw that wasn't bad. I ate it but wouldn't order it again. The slaw was really good, fresh, crisp. The seasoning on the fries wasn't asked for or appreciated. I don't order seasoned fries and didn't this time either. They weren't good. The fish, marginal and not served hot same for the shrimp. I asked em' about a hat with their logo on it on my way out, 25 bucks. You kidd'in me? 25 bucks to advertise their business. Now I thinks about it, should have bought one and added "marginal food" to the logo and worn it. Maybe I'll pick one up next time I'm in that state. read more

Food was delicious, had the chicken tacos. Service was great too. If you sit outside the ambiance is wonderful. Inside had a really funky smell to it. read more

Good service. Food could use a bit more flavor/spice but overall experience is great! Repeat customer for sure!

Great place to eat with tons of locally sourced ingredients. People here are so kind and always make me feel welcome! Great spot for lunch or dinner. And really good atmosphere as well! read more

Great name for a bar, but now children are allowed. To the waitress who seated us right by the women's restroom, thank you for thinking that would be a nice gesture of convenience. The place was virtually empty and the other tables and booths weren't reserved. This must be the most sought after booth in the entire place, right? After looking over the drink menu and googling what was in a Moscow Mule (it was a happy hour special), I decided on water. If you are a white wine drinker, there is a Seven Hills Riesling that would be wonderful with my salad on a hot summer night, but it is February. There is also only one cider, Angry Orchard, so water it was. If you are a beer drinker, you might have more options. The menu is full of food with cheese and calories, possibly leftover from its days as a bar. I was looking for something light. My Green Goddess chop salad had a lot of flavorful bacon, a very small bit of avocado, some small diced tomatoes, a few tasty, thinly sliced onions and a lot of romaine lettuce. I did have the mozzarella cheese taken off (Chèvre would have been a much better option), and I substituted the dressing for balsamic vinaigrette, which I hoped was healthier than the Green Goddess dressing that the waitress described. The salad was good; that's all. If you enjoy salads that have more character, go elsewhere. If you are a lover of former bars now with a children option, this might be a place to check out at least once. I probably won't be back unless I'm guaranteed the best table in the house, which I'm sure is that bathroom table. read more

Red Monkey Walla Walla - Green Goddess salad minus the cheese (mozzarella, really?) minus the salad dressing (balsamic on the side) - American Near Me - Walla Walla, Washington

This review is based on only one visit but, unfortunately, it may be my only visit. We arrived at about 5pm on a Friday and we were seated right by the women's restroom. Not the best table in the house but it does have a great view of the one huge TV screen, if you are facing it! For those who come for the TV screens, there are enough that you should be able to see at least three or four easily. The menu is ok. There are enough choices that you can probably find something to eat. However, If you are looking for gourmet dishes you will be sorely disappointed. I ordered the 'shroom burger. When it arrived it looked quite appetizing. However, when I bit into it, it was a grease burger. The fat drippings almost covered the whole plate by the time I had finished eating it. The fries were quite acceptable but the grease in the burger overshadowed the taste of everything else. Fortunately I had some moose drool to temper the congealing fat. I probably won't be back unless I am with a group who insist on going and then I will try something completely different. It is a pity that one bad item in a meal can color one's whole experience. read more

During my week long stay in Walla Walla I went here twice. The atmosphere is nice. The food and staff are great.

Oh man. Where to begin? I want to type out a full story of my two terrible experiences here, but based on past reviews, I guess I should have known what I'd be getting. If the management doesn't care, why should I? Terrible service at the front of the house AND the back of the house. I gave them a second chance and there were a total of 8 significant examples of poor service between my two visits over the course of two days. The issues had nothing to do with COVID. Just people who don't care about doing a good job, which comes directly from the top (ie, the management and/or owners). Get it together! read more

I was very disappointed with this restaurant. The food was terrible. The Shirley Temple disappointed my daughter as there was no cherry, I ordered avocado and paid extra for it and it was not included in my to go order but was charged. The kids fish and chips was soggy and bready and I requested tarter sauce (none) and the coleslaw was warm. The good news is the person that waited on me was friendly and quick and the order was ready when I got there. I won't come here again. I understand the higher prices that businesses have to charge, and I don't mind paying if the food is good. This was a big disappointment. read more

Very good burger! Bun was soft with a little sweetness. Unlimited fries as well. Great service, very polite and hard working. Cool Atmosphere. Will come back and try something else. read more

What a fantastic bar! We stopped her on a lazy weekday with the hope of spending a couple of hours on the patio nursing beers and razing apps and we were not disappointed. The nachos were unique and awesome, as were the cheese curds. The beers were cold, our server was friendly, attentive, and prompt, and no one seemed the least bit bothered that we sat and talked and ate for the better part of two hours. We will definitely be back! read more

Great service! Great food! We had a Wonderful lunch after another establishment in town would not let us bring our severely disabled daughter who is in a wheelchair into the restaurant. The staff at Red Monkey went out of their way to accommodate us and our daughter. Would highly recommend the Red Monkey!! We will be back! read more

Restaurant not enough help- took over an hour to get food that came warm and onion rings weren't made to order as told - 16 min to get service Not sure we go back read more

I'm not afraid to admit I swore The Monkey off after 3 terrible outings (reviews below). Having a kid has forced me to reassess my non-patronage. After all, Red Monkey is pretty much the Red Robin of Walla Walla and there are only so many places you can take children, have a beer AND watch the games with your friends. Having said that, I'm glad I gave them another chance and been in at least twice more since initially venturing back. I have been pleasantly surprised with the competent and personable service on the restaurant side and the new menu has a few 'pub grub' gems. Flatbreads were decent and the beer selection is giving Wingman a run for it's money ;) This isn't a place I would personally choose to go to if I didnt have to, but it truly does fill a niche in this town and they seem to have been putting more effort into service and food in the last year. Kudos, Red Monkey. read more

Note to self- if what you really want to eat is Nachos- go to a Mexican restaurant. While the smoked pork was super good the shortage of other toppings like black beans, tomatoes and the liquid cheese like topping fell way short of the mark. I will say it is the first time I have not cared for the meal at the Monkey. This experience won't stop me from going but I won't give Nachos a second look when there are so many other awesome items on the menu. read more

Customer service is awesome! I love this place! Not only do they make great drinks but they have really delicious food too! Family friendly but also night out friendly! Great place to just stop in for lunch or have a few drinks or sit outside under the covered umbrellas while it's nice out! I like to bring my laptop, sit outside and have the first aid mimosa (a must have)! read more

We stopped by for a late lunch today. Hubby had "Space Dust" and 1/2 order of Beef Nachos. I had "Guinness" and Fish & Chips. The drinks were amazing as always. The Nachos were met with the hubby's approval! I was a bit disappointed in the Fish & Chips. The fish were overdone to the point of being burnt on the outside. The inside was good. The "chips" were delish!!!! I don't really care for coleslaw...... Enough said. The service was excellent as usual. Perfection with a smile. When it came time to pay our bill, we were shown on our bill how much to tip our server and kitchen crew! I do not like this! Because of this we left less than we had planned. Shame on Red Monkey. We are good customers. We always tip. I resent this!!!!!!! read more
