He really enjoyed his, & I enjoyed the martini-- I'm not vegan, so the fact that I didn't enjoy the dish was a personal issue, not on the restaurant. It was beautiful & had depth of flavor, it just wasn't to my liking. I wish there had been a few more options on the menu for food. Overall, the ambience was lovely & the restaurant is beautiful inside. Would return for another dining experience... I just know to avoid this dish on my second try!

This is an attractive brewery/restaurant with a gnome theme. And I'm a sucker for gnomes…read more Thankfully, you can't order gnome on the menu. The draft beer selections are extensive, with many different styles available. I went with a flight of all high alcohol varieties because I find them to be the most flavorful and definitely not because they give the best buzz for your money. The Belgian was outstanding. Our server was fantastic. She was incredibly friendly and attentive. If you dine here and she's your server, you won the lottery. The menu is very well-written but I don't think the food quite matched my expectations. The BBQ burger was fine. The hot chicken sandwich had a good kick but I thought the sauce was a little weird. The side of tots was good but it's impossible not to like tots. I appreciated the option of fried potatoes. They were fine. You could do a lot worse with the view. The spectacular courthouse towers over the restaurant on the other side of the street. Really good beer, decent food, great service, and a wow view. And gnomes.

Very light and flavorful Bob Marley Taco - couldn't really get the 'jerk' flavor, but overall a good flavor Barbados Taco - good flavor but a little heavy. Beer Cheese Mac - a little heavy for Mac n cheese, but flavor is ok. I was suggested this place for the tacos...I don't think each taco is worth $7....maybe $4-$5. $7 seem a little steep for what you get.

My husband and I were so excited to check out Dana's while visiting Fort Wayne!…read more The service here was incredible. We arrived early to meet family for a drink at the bar before dinner, and they were able to go ahead and seat us at a larger table. The food was great! I enjoyed my wagyu hot dog. The fries were excellent, as was my mocktail. There was a convenient, paid parking lot within walking distance.

Was on a solo work trip to Fort Wayne and stumbled upon Dana's on a frigid night. Very happy I did!…read moreI sat at the bar and the staff was attentive, kind, and welcoming. That had a great pale ale on tap. Seeing the brioche online I had to try it. It was incredible. Sweet, salty. Something I have never had before. I also ordered the burger which was good, but the brioche stole the show! Nice warm ambiance and great prices! Will be back next work trip for sure! Well done, great spot!!

They had a pretty big menu. I feel like everyone could find something they would like…read more We had the broiled haddock, fried haddock, and po boy sandwich. The po boy was a little salty but it was a pretty good size. The fried and broiled haddock were both good. I thought the broiled haddock was better and really moist. The service was decent they were busy and we received everything we asked for. It was clean and everyone seemed to enjoy the atmosphere.

Nice bar and restaurant. All of us (party of 6) had their Haddock broiled, batted and fried, baked…read more All the food was delicious from what the others told me except for my battered and fried Haddock. The fish was way over cooked to the point all the outside of every piece was burnt and hard. I was only able to get to eat maybe half of each piece. Their green beans were hard and chewy and the other side their garlic mashed potatoes had this distinct flavor of old potatoes. Very much a waste of $25. As a group we all had a complaint or two with each item. The only thing that pulled this meal out of the dumpster were their drinks. My opinion is that I'll not be returning unless dragged there by a team of draft horses.

One of my few complaints about Union Social is the volume of noise. We have dinned with friends…read moreand older family members. Eating in the front area...especially in the open area is really unpleasant. It's loud. The TV's are loud. You can't talk and enjoy the conversation. On this trip...we dinned in the "back" room. What a difference! The noise level was minimal. We asked the waitress to turn down the volume and she did. This allowed us to enjoy our conversation and dinner. Great job done by our waitress Zhoee. She was patient, professional, friendly and very helpful to the older members of our party. She was responsive to the loud speakers we were asked to turn them down. Zhoee kept the refills coming while serving us well!! We started started with the Cuban quesadillas. This is really a MUST try. The meat is very flavorful. The pickled onions and sauce inside the quesadilla are delicious!! I particularly like the house salads. They are very fresh and attractive. Plenty of side veggies and crunchy/boldly garlic flavored croutons. I tried the Thai ginger dressing this time. I loved the mild flavors. You could pick up the hints of peanut sauce and ginger coming through. It is moderate in consistency and delicious! I've never had their Mac & cheese so we gave it a try. A nice thick and creamy white cheese sauce. The cavatappi style noodles were perfectly cooked! The cheese stuck to the noodles beautifully. The cheese sauce was so tasty that you almost wanted to like the bowl. On this trip I went with the wings and dry rub seasoning. Nothing else on the menu appealed to me that visit. I got six small to medium sized wings in this order. The insides were fully white without being tough or dry. The skin was a bit crunchy so I'm sure they were fried. The dry rub has a mild traditional BBQ flavor. The wings were really coated in dry rub. I don't think there was a speck of skin showing through. At times I felt like I was eating more dry rub than chicken. The rub comes off very salty - which I liked. It didn't have an after taste burn - which I also liked. The BBQ was pleasant and flavorful to taste. The volume of rub was just a bit overwhelming - at least to me.

Coyote Creek Bar & Grill (Hillegas Road) - pizza and a patio with a view!…read more We love to dine at the Coyote Creek's patio on a summer's evening. It's a covered patio and over looks the 18th hole (see picture). The cover blocks the sun and allows a cool relaxing breeze to flow in. Very nice! This was actually the first time I have ever tried their pizza. I've been here with others who have ordered pizza and liked it. I was always reluctant to try it because they appear to over cook the crust often. Definitely not this time though! I have included the regular pizza menu. They only have about five specialty pizzas to pick from. Their 16 inch selections will generally run you about $20. On this occasion...the special of the month was a cheeseburger pizza. It sounded good so I gave it a try! The cheeseburger pizza crust was very light and soft with a slightly baked crisp. It has a bit of a floury taste. The inside tended to mimic a biscuit flavor and texture. I liked it. No buttery coating or seasoning. Just some stray cheese pieces. I can't describe their normal tomato based pizza sauce. This pizza came with "special sauce" to accent a cheeseburger flavor. The sauce was light, thin and didn't dominate the taste. I found out they use their homemade 1000 Island dressing for the sauce. It did mimic a McDonald's Big Mac special sauce - just not as zingy. I was concerned that the sauce would grow old fast as I worked on 16 inches of pizza. It did not as it wasn't very strong tasting. There wasn't a lot of ground beef to dominate the taste. There was plenty of mozzarella cheese and some cheddar cheese accents. This gave it a nice gooey pull apart string. The dill pickles were very thin and mild in dill taste. Cold Pizza Test - the crust got only a little tougher while the biscuit flavor stepped forward. It was still moist to taste and easy to pick up and eat/chew. The special sauce and onions also started to come out more as it seemed to marinate a bit more. The rest of the toppings and cheese kind of fell flat in taste when cold. I liked the cold cheeseburger pizza option too! Overall...I loved the view and was glad I tried the cheeseburger pizza.

Everything was delicious!…read moreThe kitchen was short staffed, and the wait was a little longer than normal, but the food made it worth it, and our waitress was a doll, and checked in often despite most of the tables being full.

The bar area is old school cozy, and darker hued. Both areas are beautiful! The kitchen is open (always a plus) and filled with a very talented culinary team. Hosts are warm and welcoming. Service is impeccable with great attention to details, yet somehow, not stuffy. We've dined at Joseph Decuis many times over the years. There was a very brief period when the menu was a bit less than expected, mind you BRIEF, but we were happy to experience an evening dinner this past weekend that was once again par excellence! Exactly why we choose Joseph Decuis for special evenings out! As others have mentioned, it is pricey. However, if you appreciate exquisite freshness, innovation, and preparation (truly an art), and are looking for something out of the ordinary, don't hesitate to make a reservation!

We ordered tartar as a starter, and tomahawk Waygu steaks and while they were prepared properly, they were both just so bland. Both my business partner and I left the evening saying, "meh. That was underwhelming." I've had better steaks from my own cast iron pan at home with a sprinkle of sea salt. Another point of contention was that I specifically asked for a green vegetable and I was given carrots and peppers. Nothing green. For a meal that cost an arm and a leg, it was disappointing. Stars are for the great servers and the atmosphere.
