My family has been going there since the 60's, the food is just as wonderful. Walker's beef is the best on earth, as is the rest of the menu. Tty a Dago Flip, holy cow!

You are all correct,,,the Italian Beefs are great. Don Walker bought the recipe in the early 60s and when he retired in 72 he sold the recipe with the business. I think it has changed hands a couple of times but the beefs are still yummy. Whenever I get back to Aurora I head there.

I love to eat here! I take my family here all the time. They have really good BBQ and I love their burgers and fried chicken sandwiches. We order from my workplace for lunch and they seperate all the orders by person and we all can pay seperately. Th ...

Owner is only employee. He is friendy and really cares about what he does. You can watch him hand bread the fish or chicken after you order. It takes 15 minutes to get your food since everything(even the fries) are cooked only after ordered. The brea ...

I remember when Don and Rose Walker opened the place back in 1966,,it was a old gas station. They had outgrown the original east side location.
I miss the Bar B Q sandwiches but the beefs are still the same. Also the Italian Flips are no more.

I also grew up in Aurora and spent quite a bit of money and time at the sandwich center. I'm now living in Brazil and will be state side next month and I'm making a "special" trip to Aurora just for the Italian Beef. Don and Steve, you are masters of your craft!

I was born and raised in Aurora, but moved away to Texas back in 1976. Don Walker's is the standard for sandwiches, especially the Italian Beefs that has yet to be beat. They never heard of the things down here, so I have to make a trip to Aurora at least once a year just to get my Walker's IB fix.

The atmosphere is 60's ere diner, but that's because it hasn't changed since the 60's. Nothing fancy, but it's clean and you won't find better food anywhere.

As for best don walker sandwich u need to grab a bite. In aurora it is the only place where u can find the best half pound steak sandwich worth talking about...mmmmmhot welldonecheese with mushroom onion served over the steak buttery bread ahhh. I've grown up in aurora almost all my life my dad and my mom had always take me to don walkers back in 1975 and today myself as a mother of three I carried my children to dine at don walkers telling them. The story where they can come to aurora to sit and enjoy the best in town..... Also I'm still coming back to don walker resturant nothing will ever stop my way ..... Thanks vadonna taylor
