    Dulce de leche French toast with berries
    Erin G.

    So this is my first return to Proximo for many years, and man, I can't believe I waited so long to come back! Wanted to do something special for my dad's birthday, so we booked a brunch at Proximo! When we got there, immediately I felt like my family and I were at ease. Everyone was lovely and got us seated! The interior is bright, and there is indoor and outdoor seating if it is nice enough outside. We decided to take from the brunch menu--everything was good! My mom got the dulce de leche French toast with berries, which was sweet but very nice if you're in the mood for some great French toast. My dad got the breakfast tacos with chorizo--while the meat wasn't super spicy, it did make my dad drink a lot of water! I got the chilaquilles with carnitas which were good--but I felt like there could have been more sauce soaked into the chips or added to the dish before serving. While it had a large portion of meat, only one egg and not a ton of sauce made the dish get a little dry as I was eating it (and used some of my dad's breakfast taco salsa to help with the liquid for the dish). Overall, dishes were enjoyed, so I'd love to return to try more off the menu. I will say there was one crowing jewel of our time at Proximo--the dessert! We got a Torta de mil hojas, and it was a towering delicious cream puff-esque concoction. We all said we didn't have much room left in our bellies... But somehow this entire tower was eaten. I wouldn't miss it if you can get to Proximo! Oke thing to note about Proximo--parking is all on the surrounding streets. Not terribly hard to find, but be ready to walk a bit from your car on case you go downtown during busy times! Thanks for a great return, Proximo! Hoping to get back again soon!

    One of my favorite restaurants in the city! The location along with the ambiance is perfect for a date night or family outing. Food is always on point and the bar area is top notch. They never disappoint

    A great ambience and plenty of seating! We were able to get a reservation for our party of 6. Their scratch kitchen elevates the experience of Latin cuisine. I'm usually wary of ordering chicken breast but the Cuban chicken was cooked to perfection and the flavors all paired so nicely.

    SO FIRE

    Food was amazing. Service was amazing. Alex, I love you! Alex is the best bartender and Thane is the best manager of any establishment ever. Also, one of the chefs is really hot, I don't know his name though. Best restaurant in town. Thank you for the best experience a girl could ask for.

    One half of the garbage skillet (ordered it split)
    Rayce P.

    We had a great time having brunch at Proximo! Our server was awesome and very attentive. We decided to split the garbage skillet, and instead of making us split it, they brought out two smaller skillets, which was very nice. They even boxed up our food for us when we finished! We'll definitely try to come back next time we're in Fort Wayne!

    First time and the food was SO good, the service on spot and the setting was nice (we sat outside on a Sunday morning) and so peaceful. Simply enjoyable and recommended.

    We ended up at Proximo and were pleasantly surprised. My pork chop was good, but the corn risotto was amazing. Shrimp and grits were also a hit. Good food, just a bit noisy with a service slip.

    Carnitas eggs Benedict with a side of bacon
    Scott M.

    Went here for brunch on Saturday and it was amazing! Food is made to order and from what we could gather they will make it your way to the best of their ability. Indoor and outdoor seating which is nice. The eggs Benedict plates are fantastic... we tried the salmon and the carnitas versions and both were fantastic with the carnitas version winning the day!

    While in the area for work, I asked a friend for suggestions in Fort Wayne for lunch and she suggested Proximo... and I am so glad she did! I loved the open kitchen and big windows. The food was excellent and I enjoyed my drink as well. Our service was spotty, having to wait longer than usual compared to how many tables we could see occupied. Definitely will be recommending this place to others, and hope to come again the next time I'm in town!

    Such A Flavorful Experience at Proximo. Visited Proximo on 5/4/24 with my husband and friends after a wedding. The open kitchen ambiance was delightful, offering a glimpse into the culinary magic. We savored a shared tortilla soup and Peruvian Saltado, and it was worth the wait. From guava margaritas to breakfast tacos, every dish delighted. Kudos to our attentive waiter, Joseph, for enhancing our experience. An unforgettable culinary journey!

    Yum!

    We have always loved Proximo's amazing and spicy (we request extra spicy!) Shrimp and Grits and their milk punch is one of my favorite cocktails. You just can't go wrong with their Latin specialties. But you may not know that Proximo is a wonderful breakfast spot! The Traditional Breakfast -- 3 eggs, tasty and crispy patatas bravas, a meat side (I love the sweet peppered bacon), and toast (I was able to substitute a fluffy and delicious pancake). We sat outside on Wayne Street and enjoyed the sights and sounds of the city and had friendly and very quick service! I can't wait to go back!

    My friend and I sat at the bar! Our bartender was friendly and provided quick service! Menu is vast and food was good!

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.

If you want sun...sit out on the patio. If you want sunny shade and a breeze..sit under the outdoor cover/bar area or grab a table with an umbrella. You can't really go wrong here. Charlie's is also good for larger groups...and kids! Charlie's place is a large facility with lots of seating. The hosts are friendly. Making an on line reservation is easy. They always seem to have plenty of staff to serve and make you feel comfortable. Kudos to the team for developing a more attractive and welcoming lobby area! Sunday afternoon is brunch. They have a different menu than a normal lunch or dinner menu. Those menus are usually large and full of great choices. The brunch menu is much narrower and dominated by breakfast items. There are some non breakfast items...but not many. My wife had the breakfast tacos. She really liked the egg and bacon mixture. The sour cream and salsa sauces blended the tastes nicely. The Cobb salad was very fresh and tasty. There were lots of side ingredients such as egg, avocado, bacon, blue cheese, tomato and cucumber. The grilled chicken was plentiful and moist. Just enough grilled and seasoned taste to blend right in with the ingredients. The home made honey mustard dressing was consistent with what you would expect from honey mustard.
