    We stumbled across this spot on our visit to Fort Wayne. The exterior and interior are so cute and charming! We sat upstairs, and it is a pretty steep set of stairs as this is an older home and they were busy for a Thursday! They have a great selection for drinks and coffees, I loved my ice coffee! The breakfast was so flavorful and delicious! Definitely a cute spot.

    Mimosa flight

    Wow, what a fun visit to a unique brunch location in Fort Wayne! My partner & I made a reservation for this past Saturday, but we had to wait about 5 minutes in a cold, cramped front hallway for our table. We were seated upstairs & served by Olivia, who was very friendly & gave great service. She helped us choose the Mimosa flight (pomegranate, strawberry pineapple, & mango!) to start. They were good, but not great. My fiancé liked the pomegranate & the mango was nice, but the strawberry pineapple didnt blow us away. However, our steak taquito appetizer with green sauce was phenomenal! I could have eaten this as an entree. Wow, they were flavorful, didn't rely mostly on onions, & was just really delicious. They were the stars of the show for me. My partner LOVED his bacon burger. He could not stop raving about it. I tried the bacon & if I could marry bacon, I would marry this bacon! It melted in my mouth. I wish I could say as much about my crispy chicken biscuit with tater tots. Instead of onion jam, there were onions in some weird cheese sauce. I literally scraped it off. My biscuit was kind of soggy, but the chicken was well-cooked & had good flavor. Overall, this was a good trip. I'd love to taste their French brioche toast & he's looking forward to the steak Benedict!

    A latte, an espresso martini and the pomegranate rosemary mimosa!

    Ophelia's is the most wonderful little gem on Wells Street in downtown Fort Wayne! Located in a charming old house, it is cozy and bright, with a fantastic patio to enjoy in the warmer months. A great spot for breakfast -- I highly recommend The Standard with bacon, the breakfast burrito (amazing with the green sauce, some pico and a little side of sour cream!), and the biscuits, which are out of this world. The burger and salads are delicious! And the mimosa flight is too notch! I went for lunch today and my friend and I decided to go back next week!!

    Set in an Art Deco style, perfect for Brunch and Tea/Coffee, Ophelia's offers a very modern eclectic organic American cuisine. The wait staff were exceptionally hospitable and the food was aesthetically and gastronomically impeccable. My wife and I visited for an Anniversary Brunch. This requires a reservation, but once you dine here, you will understand why. Truly worth your time, a hidden gem in a community committed to revitalization.

    The Standard
    Natalie W.

    I was visiting friends and we went here on my last day. It's a cute and cozy little place. The stairs are only slightly terrifying and steep looking. The menu is okay, they don't have many good drink options if you don't want alcohol or coffee. The orange juice isn't fresh squeezed and they don't have plain brewed black iced tea. Our server seemed rude and stand offish. I got the standard breakfast with a biscuit instead of toast and with sausage. The sausage is very strange looking but tastes ok, they're not consistent though. Some are thicker than others and some are thin. The biscuit was yummy and the strawberry jam was good and tasted fresh. The little potato hash brown balls were decent. They had a weird plastic like aftertaste. It's definitely just a basic meal. My friend got the breakfast burrito and he enjoyed it and liked the sauce. Only think he said is that the ingredients weren't evenly distributed throughout the burrito. If you want to try it, try it. I personally like breakfast/brunch with more options and fresh squeezed orange juice.

    Steak Benedict
    Kevin L.

    I'm a bit conflicted on my review here as I wanted to rate it higher on the establishment however it is the food that brought down the score. Ultimately that is why I choose a restaurant is for food quality first in my opinion. Reservations are recommended but we got in immediately for a Sunday Brunch at 9:15 AM. Seating was on the patio which is inviting and has a good number of tables with shade. The ambience is amazing. All staff were attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. Having said all of this, the taste of my dish was nowhere as pleasing in flavor as compared to the beautiful presentation of the dish. I ordered the Steak Benedict but didn't read the menu as close as I should have. The steak is served on top of Tater Cakes. While flavorful, they detract from the plate as they were heavy and oily. The steak was cooked perfectly as ordered but the Espresso Rub was not evident in flavor. In fact the steak had no distinctive seasoning at all. Poached eggs were brilliant. Super disappointing was the Jalapeño Hollandaise. No jalapeño flavor was present. The sauce looks nothing like the image on the website and the consistency was poor (thick like mayonnaise). Looking closely, you can tell that the sauce was dispensed from a squirt bottle and not from a ladle, hence showing how off it is from traditional Hollandaise consistency. I didn't taste any butter, lemon juice, nor any seasonings. I would have preferred an English muffin but they don't have any on the menu. Second dish ordered was The Standard breakfast plate (not pictured) with scrambled eggs, sourdough toast, fruit cup and CRISPY bacon. Presentation was excellent however to ensure the bacon was crisp it was placed in deep fat fryer. This is not acceptable. Garnish on both plates was excellent. Speed of service was nice and relaxed. Prices are published, but with water and a Americano coffee the bill with tax was $46.34 Don't pay attention to the smear on the plate, that was me too eager to taste the dish before I remembered to take the photo. **Exceptional touch was the steak tidbit presentation in front of the full item showing how the steak temperature is under the poached eggs!

    We have never given Ophelia a try at dinner and we were able to experience it this past weekend. Reservations were not difficult, but you had to make sure you made them ahead of time online. If you have mobility issues, make sure to specify that you want to sit on the ground floor as there is no way to get upstairs easily. our server was friendly, but unfortunately was clearly short staffed. She was running around clearing tables and the entire restaurant only seem to have two waitress for a Saturday night. Luckily, we came early and got our order in. It took a while for the kitchen to prepare the food close to 45 minutes. Our dinner was the Savor Fort Wayne menu which was an amazing price point. For $55 we were able to get a three course meal for two. We started off with the salad and biscuits. The salad was fresh and the honey butter for the biscuit was scrumptious. Our main course was the ribeye steak with compound butter. It was cooked well however the fat could've been rendered a little bit better. The dessert was the fried donuts. I don't know if it's the cinnamon, but the donuts were a bit overdone. They were still tasty however could've been taken out of the fryer a little bit sooner. Overall, it was a great dinner experience minus the wait time. If you've never given them a try for dinner you should try their menu. The only recommendation is come early. There were a lot of tables that were waiting for quite a while for the kitchen to prepare the food as we were leaving.

    Steak sandwich

    Ophelia's is a unique lunch/dinning experience that you should try if you have not. O's is set on historic Wells Street. It is located in an old house that has a lot of character. The restaurant inside is very small. Hence the need for reservations. They do have an outdoor seating area that looks very attractive. The inside seating is comfortable. The staff is very friendly, welcoming and helpful with the menu. We started with the Cauliflower Cheesy Bread. This was very creamy, smooth with a very mild cauliflower & cheese taste. The bread pieces were nicely toasted and soft. My wife enjoyed her crispy chicken sandwich. The chicken was nicely breaded and moist. My mother really liked the chicken salad. As a guy...Ophelia's does have a flare that appeals to mom's and wives. This makes a great dinning choice if you want a relaxing time of conversation with someone special. I had the steak sandwich. It was piled high with steak pieces. They were cooked perfectly to my medium rare choice. The meet had a slight seasoning flavor but not as much as I would have expected. The meat strips were a bit difficult to chew apart..hence the pieces tend to fall out of the sandwich. The bread was soft and nicely toasted. Overall I recommend you give Ophelia's a try. This makes a great place to take mom or a wife for a great meal and wonderful relaxing conversation.

    French toast and breakfast burrito

    The drink and food selection was amazing! My husband and I were (as always,) so pleased with our choices. Everything was delicious and the service was great! We also enjoyed the beautiful cozy atmosphere.

    SO good. One of the best iced matchas I've ever had, the avocado toast was just as good. My sisters all got drinks and meals as well enjoyed it just as much.

    This place has a lovely atmosphere very girlie delicacy vibes. It's two stories and does have parking right behind but very limited parking spaces. I would have given 5 stars if only they had more vegan options. I had opt out the egg that came with the toast and was still charge the same price. Nonetheless, definitely worth a visit for sure! Beautiful ambiance.

This isn't Covid time anymore... Ambiance is fine. Packed tables and booths into close quarters; has to park in a different lot due to no open spots in theirs. Food was gross! Ordered the breakfast bagel and the portion was massive. However the scrambled eggs tasted like fish and were gross. Bagel was chewy. Smoke turkey sausage was like a big, cut in half hotdog. Hash browns were undercooked. Just left it. Hated it. Kids got Mickey Mouse pancakes and they were just sugar! A metric ton of chocolate chips all over it. Kids didn't even eat it. Needless to say we all left feeling bloated, sick and unwell after eating here. Best parts? Service is friendly and quick. Cinnamon toast was tolerable. Water was cold & wet. Bout it.

The vegetable skillet was cheesy, but the potatoes were not crispy. They do give huge portions and is more than enough for 2. Not sure if there is a special request to have the potatoes crispier, but would definitely enhance my experience.

    Cosmos - another nice visit to Cosmos. They have such a broad menu that everyone can find…read moresomething. Especially if you like breakfast foods. Cosmos always has plenty of staff, great service and speedy food preparation. I tried the tenderloin based on recommendations from the Tenderloin FaceBook group. I ordered a breaded tenderloin. 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!!

My wife ordered and enjoyed three eggs , hash browns and a really tasty biscuit! I, on the other hand, had the Philly steak. It was almost inedible! Instead of the traditional shaved tender steak, this one had big chunks of chewy beef and a tasteless cheese sauce on a bun that fell apart in your hands. It came with lemon rice soup that was good and outstanding French fries. The manager stopped by the table and I mentioned my disappointment. She immediately offered a substitute and I chose The Cosmo Egg Benedict that was extremely satisfying. All in all everything worked out well and I'm sure that we will return.
