Salvatori's (Washington Center Road) - mixing up my local Italian food choices…read more Fort Wayne is blessed with many local Italian restaurants. Each a bit different with their own flare. On this occasion we picked Salvatori's on Washington Center Road. We've always had an easy time getting a table here as the restaurant is fairly large. The staff is very friendly and helps each other out. Wyatt did a great job on this occasion. The restaurant was clean and orderly. My wife really liked the chef salad. Very fresh with lots of meats and side veggies. A very attractive dish also. The house dressing is light, slightly sweet and has a nice oil based taste. Side house salads are very tasty and fresh as well. Lots of side veggies and cheese packed into this over flowing bowl. The Frutti di Mare is a weekly special only. The linguini was perfectly cooked and plentiful. The red sauce had a nice tomato with Italian seasoning/oil taste. Often this sauce can be very spicy. This dish was not spicy nor did it sacrifice flavor. There were lots of mussels - which don't have much meat. There really wasn't much shrimp or calamari included. The fish was tender and flakey.

After travel we didn't feel like dining in so we placed an order for carry out on their website. The menu is extensive! Definitely something to please everyone. Our order was ready at the quoted time. Employees were friendly at the carryout counter. We had ordered a few different pasta entrées and breadsticks. I had the backed manicotti with cheese and herbs, and it was excellent. Servings were large, enough for two to share or two meals. My friend enjoyed spaghetti with marina sauce and meatballs. I will definitely return to try some other entrées, and would like to dine in next time as the restaurant was attractive and comfortable.

We have always frequented the Washington Center Rd location and have loved it. We had heard great…read morethings about the Illinois Rd location, so we thought we'd give it a go. It's located in a strip mall that looks a bit run down. But once you enter the outside door, everything changes. This location has a more intimate vibe to it. Lower lighting and a quieter mood. We were seated in the bar area but it was quiet since it was middle of the day and the bar was empty. Our server, Linda, did something I've never had happen before. She asked our names and proceeded to address us by them the entire visit. She had a great personality and made for a great experience. I'm a huge Mama Daphne fan as is my husband. But we wanted something different. We ordered bosco sticks for the app and husband ordered the spicy Italian meat calzone and I opted for the Papa Petro, a flatbread sandwich with pesto mayo and several Italian meats. We were impressed with both but the Papa Petro won out. Very tasty. Mama Daphne has some competition now. This location is the only location that doesn't serve pizza. They defer to the Marco's pizza location two doors down. So if you want pizza at Salvatori's, skip this location. Otherwise, I'd definitely recommend! Will be back!

We sat in an area where it was all tables but there also see,ed to be a more intimate area that had some booths. Great for date night. Our server came over quickly and took our drink order. The menu is very large. I really liked that they offered a cauliflower crust pizza as well as a gluten free option with the pastas. I asked my friend what she recommended and went with her suggestion. It was pasta in a cream sauce with mushrooms and then you got an additional vegetable mixed in. I ordered it with the broccoli and she ordered hers with the spinach. We both ordered the lunch special that had a side salad and any pasta. The salad was large and fresh. The portion size was large. And filling. By the time my pasta came I was only able to eat half of it. The portion size on the pasta was large also. I was thrilled that I took half of it home because I got to enjoy it again for lunch the next day. The pasta was delicious. I loved the flavor of the cream sauce. We could not have had a more enjoyable lunch. The service was great. The food was amazing. And the prices were reasonable. I will definitely be back.

Casa Grille - pulled pork BBQ pizza…read more A delicious choice. But hurry! It's a summer special and then it will be gone!! The crust has a garlicky butter flavor to go along with the wood fired crisp. The BBQ is nice and spicy with a traditional BBQ tang. The pulled pork is tender with a good meat flavor. All mixed with red onions, green peppers and a light topping of mozzarella cheese!

We stopped in and had dinner on Friday. We had the salmon, ravioli, and salads…read more Everything was fresh and at the correct temperature. We modified the salmon to have garlic butter instead of sun dried tomato butter. The server was efficient and checked on us repeatedly during the dining experience. Since we stopped in around 5:00 it wasn't very busy and the servers were all getting situated. It was clean, well stocked, and ready for a bus night.

Our party of six dined here on a Friday evening, the first time for all of us. We didn't have a…read morereservation but there were several tables available. We were seated in the back next to the karaoke machine. We all ordered different entrees. Fresh hot bread and garlic butter were served. We also each received a small salad. We promptly polished off the bread in the basket and another basket was brought out. Service was excellent. The only thing that detracted from our experience was a couple of young children running wild at the table next to ours. There were only two tables in the back, ours and the table next to ours where a family with young children was sitting. They were there before we came in and were still there when we left, so probably the children were bored. But they were running around our table, bumping into our chairs, and occasionally shrieking at the top of their lungs. A definite annoyance when we were hoping for a nice dining experience. All of us enjoyed our meals, the homemade noodles were excellent!

I've always heard about Zianos but we have never been. We had planned on one of our favorite…read moreItalian restaurants for our late Valentines dinner but it was not open. So... we decided to try Zianos. Located in the end of a strip mall, I was a little surprised at the appearance. While clean, it's not a romantic atmosphere at all. Not what we were hoping for but it wasn't too busy, so we at least had a quieter meal. Elizabeth was our server and she was very kind. We ordered breadsticks (at 99 cents per order), and some meatballs for an appetizer. The breadsticks were so good... we ordered the second round. Perfect. Definitely the highlight of the meal. The meatballs were also good. For our main dish, we both ordered the Chicken Marsala. We love a great chicken Marsala. This was different than any we have had. The sauce was thicker than what we are accustomed to having but the taste was pretty good. All in all, the food was good for a fair price. Our server was a little zealous at one point, removing a dish before we were finished, but she did give us two coupons.... For one order of free breadsticks. That should make up for it... Would we go back? Yeah. Does it compare to our favorite local Italian restaurant? Not really. If we were ever back in Fort Wayne again on a Monday when our restaurant is closed, that would be the day we would go.
