Friendly and professional service. The food was exceptional. Would return.

The walleye and raspberry chicken were excellent. Clam chowder also above average. Service is always friendly and top notch, but not uppity. Atmosphere is tougher to review. On one hand it's historic, quaint and a bit unusual in a good way. On the other hand, it's tight quarters between tables and non-private.

If you come to Fort Wayne and don't come to the Oyster Bar you are missing out. This a very unique experience. The food was outstanding and the service was excellent. I had the shrimp cocktail, filet with scallops and it was all fantastic. I highly recommend.

Best restaurant in town, hands down. Food is consistently fresh and properly cooked! The cocktails are also pretty terrific too.

This quaint and cozy Fort Wayne staple never disappoints! The seafood is always cooked perfectly and the service is consistent. My favorite dish is the Cioppino. Their clam chowder is some of the best here in town! The interior is a bit of a speakeasy feel. The inside is smaller so I would recommend making a reservation if you’re coming for dinner, mainly for the weekends or a group larger than 4.

My boyfriend really wanted clam chowder, so I took the opportunity to return to a place I haven't been since I was much younger. It really hasn't changed. Neighborhood bar atmosphere, with cozy seating. The food was good. The better half had the clam chowder I had the po-boy, and served quickly by our server who was very attentive with the bread and beverages. It's a very Midwestern, what you see is what you get, kind of place.

The Oyster Bar never disappoints. They squeeze a lot into a small footprint, but the oysters were huge and delicious and the filet and haddock were super.

A longtime local standard for great seafood in a local tavern setting with solid service. Great to see the owners in the back & on the floor checking in on their patrons!

Always a great experience we went for Savor Fort Wayne. I'd never had Chopino and found a new dish to love. The tuna-tartare appetizer was great with cherry tomatoes in a rich balsamic glaze. My wife had the calamari (delicious as usual) and the gnocchi with shrimp added - also delicious!

First time and everything was delicious. Mussels & clams, oysters and did the half & half - prawns and scallops. Every bite was fantastic! Service was on point! Tight seating so we chatted with our new friends.

Went for savor Ft Wayne but have been here several times in the past. The food is always fresh and delicious. I loved the tuna tartare. Black and bleu salmon was very good, the bleu cheese was not over powering in the dish. Cioppino flavors were decent, but on the heavier side than I'm used to. Their bread is hot and fresh too. Full bar and cocktails here are strong. Our service this time was okay but we've definitely had better in the past here. It is VERY small inside but that's what makes it the oyster bar.

The seafood is excellent at the Oyster Bar. I highly recommend the Black & Blue Oysters. The service is excellent and they make everyone feel like you are home. I had the Mahi Mahi special which I also recommend.
