    Lump Crab Hushpuppies

    I enjoy visits to Conner's Kitchen and Bar. They have great ambiance and good food. Our server was courteous and efficient, she wasn't overly charismatic but she was thorough.

    Conner's Kitchen & Bar - our pre-Embassy show dinner go to We really like to go to Conner's for dinner prior to seeing a show at the Embassy. Conner's is located across the street from the Embassy. It's easy-in-easy-out if you park in the ballpark garage, walk to Conner's for dinner and then walk to the show! Note: Conner's Kitchen & Bar is the street level restaurant...not to be confused with Conner's Rooftop bar a top of the building. Making a reservation at Conner's is easy on line. I would definitely encourage a reservation...especially on show nights. It is a large restaurant and they have a large bar as well. It appears that they have first come first serve seating at the bar - but don't count on it n a busy night. You will find Conner's to be very relaxing. The host and serving team are very friendly and welcoming. They always seem to have enough staff to move things along to your show deadline. The seating is very comfortable. The dining & bar area is very attractive and makes you feel at home quickly. We have been to Conner's multiple times while on a schedule. We have never been disappointed in the food, service and overall experience. We started this trip with the White Cheddar Cornbread. The bread is moist and moderately sweet like a southern cornbread should be. The edges and top have a little more of a crispy taste without being tough. The breading has hints of zucchini which probably retain the moisture. The honey buttery topping adds just a little more moisture and sweetness to enjoy. Conner's has very tasty side salads. They are fairly large and adorned with a nice selection side items. The salad is fresh and attractive. The avocado ranch dressing is absolutely delicious! The creative sauce has a moderate consistency of ranch dressing thickness and flavor. The avocado accent tastes really make this tasty. The smoked bacon street tacos were also creative and tasty. The white BBQ sauce was mild to taste with no spicy after kick. The red onions really accented the pork belly nicely. The pork was a little stringy and tough at some bites. The Elote corn casserole is outstanding! It is utterly amazing. You must try it if you like corn casserole. It's sweet and creamy. The corn pieces are small and bathed in a smooth sauce. You can find smoked chicken wings on the appetizer menu. They have a strong Smokey taste and were cooked perfectly. The wings are fried after being smoked. Some of the skins were fried to a more crunchy consistency than others. For the wing lover...you get 6 medium sized wings in this $14 appetizer. Not a bad choice if nothing else on the menu strikes you. There are only three sauces to pick from. I went with the sweet BBQ. I found it to be be mild in sweetness and in BBQ spicy taste. Overall...I would recommend Conner's for dinner prior to a show due to the simplicity of the experience. The food and service are consistent and satisfying. Give Conner's Kitchen & Bar a try.

    Meatloaf is insane. The bbq sauce is incredible, creamy mashed potatoes, green beans are crispy and fresh, and the crispy onions chefs kiss. Had the side salad w the herb vinaigrette which was a bright green - amazing. Would love to come back!

    We came for breakfast after our late night Xmas party. Restaurant was not busy, our server quickly helped us. I had an Americano coffee and it was freshly brewed. Then ordered the chorizo hash which was good not great, I guess I was expecting a different type of chorizo . My wife ordered the loaded breakfast nachos and it was huge! She barely ate a quarter of it. She enjoyed it, it was deliciously spicy. We had a great time, enjoyed the Christmas music on the background. Loved it. Too bad it is ~20 minutes from home, otherwise we would be here frequently. Thank you Angelice.

    Smoked bacon (pork belly) street tacos with corn side
    Linda S.

    First time at Conners, and what a surprising place! Atmosphere is clean, very casual, bistro-like with an elegant flare. Comfortable! Beautiful! Our server was Regan and she was very efficient, patient, and kind...answered our questions and sought answers from kitchen staff or bartender when she needed clarification. A great trait (as opposed to pretending one knows everything)! Food was exceptionally prepared and presented. Not pictured below: the 4 of us shared the crab hush puppies and the Brussels as starters. Delicious! Mains were: the Cubano, the marinated grilled chicken, the fish tacos, and the smoked bacon (pork belly) street tacos, all expertly presented and tasty (pictured below). Both taco entrees came with a side of creamed street corn which was amazing! All in all, a great evening! Definitely recommend and will return! Would give it 4 and 1/2 stars if we could. Excellent!

    Tried this place for dinner. Everything was absolutely delicious. Service was quick and pleasant. The place appeared clean and modern. Pricy but great experience staying in the attached hotel.

    Great vibe and a nice place to warm up after a night out seeing the lights. Spacious and comfortable, we were able to watch the football game. Food tasted great!

    Cool spot in Fort Wayne to get a nice view of the baseball field and sip on great cocktails. I recommend their old-fashioned cocktail. Cool atmosphere, great outdoor rooftop with fireplaces and friendly staff.

    Our server Lilly was the BEST !!  Mac and cheese did not disappoint. The creamy, cheesy goodness wrapped around tender pasta was to die for.

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.

I called in my order and it was simple. I ordered the vegetable skillet and choice the biscuit. The biscuits are not made from and was very tasteless. 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.

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!!
