This was my second time here. The food is amazing. They can take an unassuming dish like cooked carrots and turn it into something amazing that you won't be able to forget.

Had oysters, smoked tongue, tagliatelle, and eton mess for dessert. 5-6 was happy hour, so $3 oysters and 1/2 cocktails. Excellent quality ingredients and best flawless execution.

I was able to host a group of thirty friends for a lovely happy hour and dinner at Rune on a Wednesday. The dining room staff was incredibly attentive from working with Kayla to make the reservation to Dylan and Reagan serving the guests. The kitchen crew and bartender Mae served up delicious bites and bevvies for all to enjoy. The entire group enjoyed themselves and I would do it again in a heartbeat. My faves were the buttered noodles(just try them!), the skewers and the poutine. I am already scheming to go back for more poutine!!! Love what Chef Sean is doing in my neighborhood. Worth a trip to the 07 to visit FOR SURE!!!

Tried a good variety of items on the menu. We'll be back just for the bartender and their creations! The food was excellent, and am glad to hear they update their menu so each time is a new experience! It was a great place to spend our anniversary!

Oh my gosh. This was such an incredible dining experience! We are from out of town and came to Indiana for a wedding. Not gonna lie, we were a little nervous about finding good food in the Midwest 😅 but this place was an absolute gem! We ordered the oysters, chicken skewer, ham and shells, green pasta, pork chop, and pistachio coffee cake, as well as some drinks. Everything was truly fantastic!
I had an amazing time at Rune! The menu is ever-changing, and offers new, artistic dishes that will definitely send you taste buds far into orbit! I got the Green Spaghetti, and was amazed by the strong, savory flavors. The important note here is that everything that was made was from fresh ingredients, even the noodles. It’s obvious in the tastes and textures of the dishes. I also tried the Ricotta Gnocchi, and that was easily in my top three dishes. Also, I’d recommend the chicken legs, and a sweet yet punchy lemon drop. The service was amazing, and the staff were amazing! I will secondly be returning here SOON!

Amazing Service, Incredible Oysters, and Cozy Vibes
I came in on a Monday, just 10 minutes before happy hour ended, and was immediately impressed by how welcoming our server was. She made sure we could still order from the happy hour menu before it closed, such a kind and thoughtful touch! (I wish I remembered her name, you rock!) If she didn’t have an answer to one of our questions, she checked in with a more experienced staff member to make sure we were taken care of. Truly great service.
Now the oysters… hands down the best I’ve had in Fort Wayne honestly even better than the ones I had at a Michelin-starred spot in Cincinnati. We had to stop ourselves from ordering a ridiculous amount! We also tried the green spaghetti, and it was chef’s kiss. The portion size was just right: satisfying but not overfilling. The noodles had the perfect texture, and the sauce was absolutely addictive.
The atmosphere is super cute and inviting. Drinks were appropriately strong, and I even loved the small detail that each glass was different—it made everything feel extra thoughtful and curated.

Tried this place for the first time on Monday and this was the absolute best time from service ( I wish I could remember the waitresses name but she’s new ) to the food. I highly recommend the green pasta and their oysters. Our cups were always filled, the drinks were absolutely phenomenal and STRONG. If you’re into trying unique cuisine I highly recommend this place. It’s also so beautiful inside. Will be back!

A lot of thought seems to go into each dish. Has all the new trends of microgreens and foraged ingredients. The cocktails have infusions that you wouldn't always think of such as cilantro infused tequila or Sweet Pea infused vodka. The Midwest Mai Thai was the best. Also got the Honey Creek which was particularly refreshing.
These turkey fritters they had were not overly breaded but thin and crispy outside, and loved drizzling it with the gravy. Their pasta of course was on point. Love the green spaghetti which was delightfully Savory yet tart. The gnocchi was quite Savory with all kinds of microgreens I wasn't sure of in flowers adding an earthy undertone. Wish we had known about the half-off spaghetti hour as we just missed it. Anyway certainly worth a stop. Service generally quite good. Have an open kitchen that you could look into. Oh also the menu is small so I didn't sit there forever agonizing between what I want to pick. 20+ a plate. Wish we had also gotten the Oysters; they looked really scrumptious.

I love Sean's passion for cooking and I've been a fan of his at many different restaurants in town. The food is always amazing, and possibly my favorite food in town. Pasta hour is genius!!! The wine menu is always good. They are very family friendly but.... The atmosphere is loud and the service is not consistent. It can take a while to get your initial drink order in if not the right people are working. The servers play an important part in the dining experience, sometimes almost as important as the ambiance or food!
