Walter's Cafe Rating Scale


Walter's has been a mainstay of the Old Port for at least the past decade. Jeff Buerhaus is the Chef/Owner of the restaurant. While his take on fusion cuisine has gotten some criticism for sometimes going too far. The Maine Sunday Telegram wrote "other combinations and fusion dishes suffered from a muddle of ingredients and ideas" and Down East notes that the "menu hopscotches across cuisines, sometimes within one dish". All of the reviews, despite their jabs at fusion excess, do say there's plenty to enjoy at Walter's, something the packed tables of diners seem to cuncur with.
Walter's is planning to move to a new location on Union Street this fall. They will be closing their Exchange Street restaurant in late September and hope to open the new one in mid-October.
