I enjoy Paula’s and have never had a dish that disappointed. (Although, their fish n chips are the best in town.) It’s always been higher end, so a little on the more expensive side, but in todays market the prices have become slightly absurd. Service is always on point too! Have room for dessert, the key lime pie is DELICIOUS, but I’ve also never tried any of their other desserts, so don’t let me sway your decision if something else piques your interest.
We had a work dinner there and it was really good! I don't eat seafood so I got the filet and it was so so good.The servers we had were great!The upstairs space could use some renovating though.
We have been visiting Paula's for at least 20 years and it has been one of our favorite restaurants in the Fort Wayne area. We were rather shocked by the price increases on the menu. Paula's is not a cheap restaurant and we've always accepted that but their prices were already a bit high before COVID. We understand the fact that inflation has hurt everyone but this felt a bit like gouging. Even so, we ordered the filet and shrimp special and house salads. The salad arrived with dressed lettuce and nothing else on it. The waitress, Abby, was wonderful and we appreciated her service. She went to the kitchen and brought back toppings to complete the salads. The entree we ordered was supposed to be medium rare beef but was well done beef instead. Overall, we thought the entree was poor and rather tasteless and we've never had to say that before at Paula's. So, we haven't given up but we're not as willing to recommend Paula's as we once were.
The almond flour crusted Walleye was prepared wonderfully and tasted very fresh. I enjoyed the French white selection and shrimp for appetizer. Absolutely incredible find in FT Wayne. I'm not saying this because I'm surprised at the perfect quality and flavor of the seafood. I am saying this because it's true..
Great seafood and service. We have been here a few times and it's always delicious. Last night hubby had king crab legs and I had their special of the night (shellfish in a tomato broth). The shellfish were delicious and the broth was so flavorful. I will have that again if they offer it.
This place has been amazing every time that we have gone. The cost is high, but there are so many reasons for this... You'll understand once you experience the wait staff and then the food. Simply amazing.
House salad - ExcellentOysters - were wonderful I haven't had them in a long time.Clam chowder - omg it was just fabulous large pieces of clam!I highly recommend this for a romantic evening. The atmosphere is relaxing and elegant. Everything was very clean and our servers were absolutely wonderful!
No vegetarian food, so pretty disappointed (except ONE off-menu pasta dish ). I know it’s a seafood restaurant so a lot of my friends & I wouldn’t choose Paula’s but it’d be nice to be able to eat when being invited there. Also martinis tasted like cheap cocktails I would get when I first turned 21. Definitely needs to be upgraded to stay w the times. 2 stars ONLY because our server Abby was great, definitely ask for her if you decide to go.
Had such a great time tonight! Suffering from the winter blues. My husband and I took a chance and were able to get a table tonight at Paula’s. Food and cocktails were amazing as always and the wait staff was so attentive and sweet. Thank you for such a great evening. ❤️
Fabulous mussels and raw oysters...Emily the server was terrific..wi\ould go back here again albeit a bit pricey...wine list ok and not overpricewd
