We were dining as a family and all enjoyed our dinner. Several beer libations, soups, and entrees. Service was great - she was new. She shared it was a little chaotic and she apologized.

Just fine I guess. We started with scotch eggs which weren't bad but cold. The pretzel bites were the same. But the seafood chowder was very good!! The pork belly with mac and cheese was overrated. Service was average. It does get really loud in there, even when the place was half filled. Final verdict? I'll go there once in a while for fish and chips.

Thankfully it was not very busy on a Wednesday at lunchtime, so the food came out much more quickly than expected. I ordered the banh mi wrap with shrimp and it was delightful. Just the right amount of heat in the sauce. But the real star was the Brussells sprouts. Jammy and delicious with a hint of bacon. Best sprouts Iʻve eaten in a while. Seating area is very open. It might get a little loud when itʻs packed, but that was not a problem for us at lunch.

The Hoppy Gnome (downtown Fort Wayne, southeast side of courthouse) - new food menu, you decide!…read more The old food offerings were the reason I came here and the reason I preferred not to come back. I loved the Cuban flavors, unique food items and the variety of tacos. Everyone loves tacos and The Hoppy Gnome did (still does, only 4 versions now) them well. However...after about a half dozen visits...I got bored with the same offerings. On line posters and most frequent customers (according to the manager) tend to favor the old menu. I, personally, found the change very refreshing and delicious! I will be back as there are lots of new things to try! The Hoppy Gnome is located downtown on the southeast side of the court house. You can park in the Citizens Center parking lot for free after 5pm. It is safe and right across the street from The Gnome. Making a reservation is easy on Open Table. I would suggest you do that versus walking in. The inside is still appealing with the bright and colorful industrial decor. They have a large private seating area for parties. They also have a street side outdoor patio. We sat outside on this summer evening. The area is spacious with solid high table furniture. People watching is fun but the traffic can be really loud at times. The new menu has a much broader appeal and less emphasis on Cuban only items. You will find lots of appetizer choices. Salads, burgers, flatbreads, pasta, seafood and chicken dishes are available. There are a decent number of specialty entrees and four varieties of tacos. All items pretty reasonably priced. Here is a run down on the food we ordered: -Chicken Flatbread: the crust was a little thicker than a normal thin crust and very soft; the manager said they really researched out this crust to fit their style; lots of delicious grilled chicken and toppings; very tasty! -Miso Honey Wings: 8 medium sized wings that are grilled and dipped; slightly crunchy skins; all white color on the inside but perhaps a little over cooked as the wing meat was tough and a bit dry; very unique sauce - very thick, sticky and rich in consistency; mild amount of sweetness and teriyaki flavors. The manager says about 70% of the people that order wings get the Miso Honey sauce. This dish was very good also! -Side salad: nice sized side salad; very fresh and attractive; no iceberg lettuce here - real greens; nice garnishment of carrots, cucumbers and roasted red peppers The team here was very friendly and professional - per normal. They hustled to serve. We particularly enjoyed sharing our experience with the manager and getting insight on the changes. Give the new menu a try for yourself!!

Their menu is packed with IPAs and sours, but the real standout wasn't just the beer, it was the creativity behind it. One of the beers we discovered was called Hanks, featuring Tom Hanks sitting on the famous bench from Forrest Gump (box of chocolates and volleyball included... bonus points if you spot all the movie references on the label). The backstory? The brewery's name comes from the owner's wife joking that he'd need to clone himself to run a brewery -- so every once in a while, he "releases" another Tom in beer form. Genius. The space had a great vibe, and the bartender (wish I remembered his name!) was incredibly friendly and welcoming. Fun beers, good pours, and even better personality -- definitely worth a visit!

Our group of six recently had an absolutely phenomenal dining experience at Copper Spoon in…read moredowntown Fort Wayne. We were hosting a special guest visiting from China, so we really wanted the evening to be perfect, and Copper Spoon delivered on every front. The food and drinks were outstanding across the board. We started with fresh oysters and delicious house breads, and our main courses--specifically the ribeyes and the salmon--were cooked to absolute perfection. As great as the food was, the absolute highlight of our evening was our waitress, Kate. She went exceptionally above and beyond to make sure our experience was nothing short of wonderful. Her attentive service, warm hospitality, and professionalism truly elevated the entire night for our group. If you're looking for an unforgettable meal with top-tier service in Fort Wayne, go to Copper Spoon and ask to sit in Kate's section. Highly recommended!
