    Really good experience. We were concerned that there would be changes in this classic Fort Wayne restaurant due to change in ownership. No need to worry. It’s just as great as always. Excellent food and great service. We will continue to go there

    First time at Paula's and when we drove up the restaurant I was a little hesitate. Once inside you will find a clean old building with character and charm. I had the best fried oysters since I was in the South 10 years ago. They were excellent. Nice menu of fish and other seafood. My entre was the combo platter. The scallops and the crab cake were very good. The almond crusted fish (I think it Walleye?) was ok. My side was the mashed potatoes which were good but a bit dry. I would suggest a slab of butter on top since there are no other toppings. Overall very good experience. We plan to return so I would recommend Paula's.

    Teriyaki Salmon is tasty and served hot. Clam chowder thick and filled with veggie and clams. Fish and chips are about as good as it gets. Good atmosphere and quiet. Expect a big bill. It's expensive.

    Overall it was a very nice evening. Food was excellent. My only comment would be I wish they would have a wider variety of oysters.
