First time here and we really enjoyed our meals. I had the barbecue chicken with red roasted potatoes, and the wife had crab cakes with broccoli and rice. She also had some clam chowder which she said is the best she's ever had anywhere. She's more of a foodie than I am so I'll take her word. We also had the walleye fingers appetizer which was good as well. The bread they served, to me, was some of the best I've had. Soft, with a little salty crust. Soft butter served with it so you didn't have to tear the hell out of it when spreading like some places give you the freezer hard butter pads. Check them out. It's good food. Oh and the salad bar is good too.

Waiter was excellent and friendly. We stopped for lunch, my first time. The french dip was delicious! My daughter had the grilled cheese. Very generous portions and real french fries, not that coated junk to make them crispy. Definitely will be back to try more!

I went to this restaurant recently for a work Christmas party and they accommodated a large group exceptionally well. The menu looked quite well rounded, but I was surprised that there was no pricing. I ordered an 8 oz filet mignon which smelled amazing. The garlic mashed potatoes were delicious too. They ran out of creme brûlée, so I went with a raspberry cheesecake, which was top notch. Overall the meal which quite enjoyable with our servers attending to our every need. The salad bar never fails to please too

Awesome brunch buffet! They have prime rib, salmon for $25! Best prime rib in Fort Wayne. This is where you want to be on a Sunday brunch!

Sunday brunch. On the Breakfast bar there are the typical breakfast items of several kinds of scrambled eggs, biscuits & gravey & meats of sausage links & crispy bacon along w/ Salmon & Prime Rib. The cheesy hashbrown Casserole is melt in your mouth. Includes the salad bar & water. Ive always had a great experience eating there. My ONLY complaint is: After paying $21.99 for breakfast. When you order coffee. They charge another $3.99. Come on owners. Include that in your price. $4 dollar coffee is crazy after paying $22 for breakfast. The coffee price pushes breakfast into a higher level that makes you think, is it worth paying almost $35 for breakfast w/tip & tax per person. You be the judge. Its your money!

Had a fantastic signature steak here. The food was great. The service was outstanding. The restaurant was very clean. The locals love this place and it is apparent why they do. It is really easy to find using Google Maps as it is right off of Interstate 69. There is also plenty of free parking in their large lot.

Jordan is very helpful bartender. I couldn’t make up my mind he made it up for me and his choices were excellent. His customer service was superb! Very friendly didn’t have to wait long. Very laid back and chill environment! Jordan had the absolute best service and best attitude ever! Definitely Recommend visiting and I visit again I definitely will be coming back!

Love their salad bar and they have the best chowder around. Quite, laid back, and relaxing atmosphere. Food is aways quick if your in a hurry but they never rush you. Everyone is always kind and helpful. Cost is on the higher side but there isn't anything bad here. Did I mention the salad bar. 😉 If you love salad bars this is the place, it has everything and don't forget the chowder, they only have chowder on Fridays but it's worth the wait.
