Lucky Turtle Grill, located at 622 E Dupont Road, is a special treat for patrons. I stopped by after a long absence and was reminded of their unique food and atmosphere. The restaurant reminds of a mix of Mad Anthony’s Brewing Co. and J.K. O'Donnell’s with its eclectic menu and dimly lit restaurant. It’s a great place for a date, a night away from the kids, or a quick lunch break.I trie …

Bringing new life to the former location of Carlos O'Kelly’s, it’s great to see people filling the parking lot again.I remember frequenting this …

Waiter on the Way saves the day! I had a friend call me in a bit of a panic. She had a last minute luncheon for her company that needed to be taken care of with a limited time frame. She happened to mention this to me as we were getting off the phone. I told her, “Don’t worry about it! Just call Waiter on the Way. They can absolutely take care of everything for you.”She did just that. We tal …

My guilty pleasure? It is (hands down) Great Wall Buffet. Sometimes you just want to have access to every delicious, Chinese, fried food available. Great Wall does just that. They have row after row of everything from Sesame Chicken to Egg Drop Soup. In moderation, it is a delicious dinner and is my favorite buffet in town. With so many buffets in Fort Wayne to choose from, they have stood th …
