While we love FF, we had never attended one of their monthly (in season) wine dinners. This dinner surpassed our expectations, which were pretty high already! The service was warm, welcoming, friendly but not intrusive. Their natural casual ambience was enhanced by white linens, fresh flowers, and candles at the tables. The food...oh the food! Fabulous (see pics)! Next wine dinners will likely resume in the fall. It's a small restaurant so only the lucky ones who reserve in time get in! The chef and his wife, Kendra, are wonderful hosts!

Ambiance is fun and everyone is always happy. Joanna's Scramble Skillet - Steak, chorizo, onions, peppers, eggs, cheese, jalapenos. - Everything was good and perfectly cooked. Seasoned well too, did not need extra salt. 5/5 stars. Meat Lovers Skillet - Sausage, bacon, ham, cheese, eggs. - Also delicious. Everything cooked well and no need for extra salt. 5/5 stars. We both did a side of pancakes (it comes with your skillets, but we would have ordered some regardless). Very good, very tasty, not dry like sometimes it can be. 5/5 stars. Go here and get the skillets. I've tried the omelettes and blueberry pancakes before, and they were fine, but the skillets are by far superior in every way. Highly recommend this place!

Spoke + Ivy (west Main Street, FW) - another locally unique dinning experience that deserves a try…read more Spoke + Ivy is located on west Main Street - across the parking lot from Redwood Inn restaurant, if that helps. This restaurant is set in an old building that used to house a pharmacy. It retains the character of the building via the hardwood interiors, tall ceilings, large window views of the street and concrete/industrial ceilings. The interior is nicely decorated with inviting green, brown wood and black accent colors. Table settings were very attractive as well. You can park in the small side lot or on the street. Reservations are easily made on line. The team is very friendly and welcoming. All set the stage for a fun and relaxing dinner experience. Spoke + Ivy has a very small food and specialty cocktail menu. This is the second time we have been here. Each time we found the food to be delicious and the cocktails are uniquely designed. Here is a run down on the food items we ordered: -Focaccia Bread: a mildly sweet, dense/firm bread, slightly airy with a touch of herbs to accent. It is cut into blocks so it is easier to share. The vodka sauce is thin in consistency with a smooth Italian seasoned tomato appeal. Both make for a deliciously simple starter. -Lobster Roll Rangoon: decided to give this a try. It comes out as one large Rangoon - not individual pieces. This means that you must awkwardly cut this shareable into pieces. The slightly crispy & oily wrapper is similar to most crab Rangoon pieces. It has a nice crisp. The inside has shredded pieces of lobster. It was not filled with creme cheese sauce like traditional rangoons - just plain. The green lemon parsley sauce was simply outstanding! It's very fresh, moderately thick and has a slightly tart taste. This added "the sauce" to what the inside of the Rangoon was lacking. -Milanese: nicely breaded chicken that was very moist. The breading is slightly sweet. The fresh bed of arugula salad is a nice add -Prime Rib Pho: this sounded really interesting. It's a smaller/healthier dish. The medium rare prime rib was sliced thin and tender. There wasn't many pieces of prime rib in this dish. The add-ins were fresh and much like you would expect from a Pho dish - just not as much volume. The broth has a chili oil base that gives it a spicier flavor. Overall we really enjoy this relaxed atmosphere and character of the building. The delicious food and cocktails are excellent.

We were seated in a very awkward corner table for two where the tables were really close together. Since it was our Valentine's celebration, I would have been uncomfortable with the tables next to us having people at them because it didn't give you any privacy or space for private conversation. We did not get drinks or appetizers. Our meals were very good (salmon and chicken). The server was good but didn't refill my water and that' a big deal to me. Also, it's supposed to be an upscale place and they were out of paper towels in the bathroom. I feel like that is just basic service they should check on regularly.

Cristy went above and beyond to help make our event a success and made it a highlight moment for our group.

They have a very short suite menu, but what I had was terrific I had a a salad with salmon on it and a lot of other veggies. It was terrific. The salmon was jerk, salmon, and the whole thing was a delicious repast. We had a appetizer of a couple bowls of their homemade chips. Unlike many places that don't salt them. These were salted just the right amount not too salty and I can't say anything bad about it. Our server was terrific and his name was Alex and the place is shaping up. I guess they just took it over from someplace else. The walls are a little bit bare needs a little more decoration and the ceiling is bare, but the chairs are very comfortable so it's an easy five star.

It was moderately thick - not pounded to a thin layer like a lot of tenderloins. The meat was very moist and tasty. The breading was a bit thinner than most traditonal tenderloins. It was darker in color with a saltier spice taste. The sandwich came with all the usual add ons - lettuce, tomato, pickles, mayo, ketchup, mustard. I really liked the sandwich!!

It seemed like a pretty quiet night at Summit Grill. I sat at the bar and order a glass of wine and…read morean appetizer: this sourdough pretzels. The bartender was kind and polite and quick with the service. There were only about three or four tables with people, let them during the course of my time. A few other folks came and sat at the bar. I heard it a side salad with salmon and it came out to me pretty quickly. The flavor was delicious, the salmon, well cooked, and the apple vinaigrette dressing on the salad was delightful. The biggest challenge, was a table with a few children sitting at it. This is no fault of the restaurant, and really, not even the result of my four-star rating. This is merely a statement: if your children are misbehaving and screaming and banging things on the table while other people are trying to eat their dinner, then perhaps the best option is to remove the children from the restaurant. It's always surprising to me when parents are selfish and subject everyone else in the vicinity around them to the poor behavior of their children. As a parent myself, I would never do that to other people. When you go out to a nice restaurant, you want to relax and enjoy the time not listen to tantrums from a three year old. Even the bartender in the servers were frustrated with this table. Some people even walked out after sitting down when they realize that unbelievable noise is coming from one table. Ok, soapbox time is over. Support the summit grill kitchen.

But on the few occasions that I remember that iced coffee exists, I remember that I've forgotten that iced coffee is bangin'. The iced coffee at Conjure Coffee is great. I suppose you could put milk or creamer or sugar in it, but an iced black coffee is good on its own. It's good for your soul to thug it out sometimes, you feel me? Black coffee will put hair on your chest, as my dad says. Anyway, Conjure Coffee has lots of coffee drinks, as well as tea, and a very small selection of baked goods. There are lots of tables at which to sit, and this location also has a drive-thru, which is convenient. I learned later that there are two other Conjure Coffee locations elsewhere in Fort Wayne, including a small stall in Union Street Market. So this is a local spot that has branched out a bit, which is nice to see.

If anything it exceeded our expectations. Not knowing what gastronomic delights they had to offer we scanned the menu with great ease. The pictures of some of the entrees caught my eye and helped me make my decision to order the Cajun Shrimp topped Crab Cake. My wife asked our server Lisa K. for her thoughts on her two options and finally decided on the Garlic Steak Pasta. Both were just the right temperature and full of flavor. The garlic had just the right balance to not overpower the tatse of the steak cubes. My Cajun Shrimps were succulent and had just the right amount of seasoning. The atmosphere was great. It is a family restaurant so there was lots of conversation and family fun in the air but we could still enjoy the private conversation at our table. Our server Lisa K. was most cordial and very knowledgeable about the food choices, and history of the restaurant. We really appreciated the extra attention she gave us when it came to bread service and drink refills. And a nice gentleman (he didn't introduce himself but we assume he was the manager) stopped by our table to ask if we enjoyed our meal. Great customer satisfaction moment. We will definitely be back to try out the Meatloaf and O'Charley's Famous Chicken Tenders and Fries (need to find out why they are so famous). See you soon Lisa K Thanks again for a remarkable dining experience.
