Tolon

Second time we have been here during our trips to Fort Wayne.We met friends that are locals and they have eaten here several times.For apps we had the Duck Fat Frites (would have liked them to be more crispy) and the Garlic Shrimp, which was delicious.Three in our party got the Salmon, and I had the Jerked Pork Chop. All our entrees were fantastic. I couldn't finish mine, the chop was huge.Our server, Jackie, was awesome. She was very knowledgeable of the drink list and menu. She did not steer us wrong, when we asked for recommendations.I had started with the Tolon Sour and ended with the Smoked Sazerac.We were all too full to even try any desserts.I would definitely recommend trying this place out.

One of the best meals of my life!!!!Chef Matt Nolot is an absolute ROCKSTAR!The Vietnamese Wings are stellar !As is EVERYTHING else on the menu!The whole staff just rocks like a well oiled machine!Do not miss Nathan's Old Fashioned!10/10

AWESOME service and niced atmosphere. Nice murals, nice real wood tables, and even nice tin serving cups for water! The farm to fresh OJ was decent, but the pot pie to be honest was underwhelming as it's not really a pot pie all baked together, just a biscuit on top of a soupy concoction of what's in a typical pot pie, IN A CUP. It was alright but not my cup of pot pie! Okay, and not anything bad tho just not a great pot pie to me. Tho I get out, A LOT more than an average person, so I've had great and not so great pot pies. The best being Pie Boss in Aurora Illinois, South African Johannesburg style that is oh so grand.

Loved this restaurant. Great location with a convenient parking lot next door. Bread & cheese dip appetizer was fantastic. The bread was an ideal consistency and they offered us extra portions after eating it all to finish the cheese at no charge. I had a pork chop that was the best I've ever eaten. The mixture of pineapple and hot honey flavors topped with salty crispy plantain on a bed of green rice was a top 5 dish I've ever eaten. My wife had their salmon topped with shrimp and it was also perfection. Service was top notch with a friendly waitress who balanced attention with privacy perfectly. Atmosphere was stylish and modern but not pretentious. We got there early on a Thursday evening and it was not busy yet so plenty of room. The bar looked nice but we sat at a table. 10 out of 10 would recommend and will be visiting again.

Great meal and great service! My wife and I had dinner here on a Saturday night. The restaurant was busy, but everything was still great! We shared the fondue to start and we both really liked it. The flavor was great and it had just a little bit of heat. The only criticism is it could be a little bit thicker. We each had the steak frites for our entree. This is one of the best steaks you will ever have. Everything about this dish was top notch! The ribeyes were cooked perfectly, the sauce was very rich, the butter added a great flavor, and once you start eating the fries you can't stop. To end the meal we shared the caramel apple bread pudding. It had very well balanced flavors and was the perfect ending to a great meal. Last, our server was great! Start to finish she did a great job - very friendly and took good care of us. Tolon is one of the better restaurants in town and I always enjoy dining here.

The best biscuit of my life came from...brunch in Fort Wayne? I know, I was stunned in more ways than one. Weeks later, I'm still wondering how Tolon got that biscuit so crispy on all sides. That's not the only item still lingering in my mind. Tolon's breakfast pot pie was pretty darn special too. I'm grateful that there was a vegetarian variation and that the server brought me out a plate to change the presentation. Had I kept it in its original vessel, the chances of pieces of veg spilling all over the table would have been high. It was a wonderful meal from start to finish!

To celebrate my dad's birthday, we chose Tolon as the birthday dinner spot! We've never been, so we were all excited to try.Our server was really friendly and helped us answer any questions we had about the menu. We ended up going with the duck fat frites to share, and I ordered the pork chop for my entree. The fries were so addicting to eat. It had a good crisp outside and soft inside. Despite being fried in duck fat, the fries were light and airy, and I didn't feel heavy eating them. The aioli paired perfectly with the fries. My pork chop dish came with a huge pork chop, a side salad, and a bed of rice. Each component was flavorful, but I felt that the individual flavors were a bit overpowering. For instance, the dirty rice was quite salty, and the sauce under the pork chop was quite sweet. The pork chop felt on the blander side compared to the stronger sides' flavors. Overall, we had a good experience here and happy to celebrate my dad's birthday at Tolon!

We came in early on a Sunday, so must've beat the crowd. We had reservations anyway, though - which I would recommend as it started getting busy whilewe were there. The service was excellent and attentive. We were well taken care of. The space was open and trendy with plenty of room in between tables. There is outdoor seating available but it was a little chilly and I appreciated an indoor seat for breakfast. I ordered the tacos with a creamsicle drink and my partner had the pot pie with the Bloody Mary. I had a bite of his pot pie and it was great, but the tacos were some of the best I ever had. The flavor was incredible as is, but the house made hot sauce made it epic! There was so much filling inside I had to eat about half out with my fork before eating it like a taco. That said, I also was only able to eat two of three before I was so stuffed. The drink was great as well - not too sweet, but sweet enough to take care of my sweet tooth. Will definitely be back again if in the area.

Service was good and we were glad to have had a reservation early. Kale salad was the best of everything we had! Deviled eggs were also good as was the pork chops. Cassoulet was very rich and not much in the way of beans! The duck breast was tasty but I wasn't a fan of the sausage. More beans and no sausage, please! Ribeye was pricey but fabulous. We will be back...

I was attracted to this restaurant based on the high reviews. Then, at another local restaurant in town, our server recommended this place for their food and cocktails.We went here our 3rd night in town, and thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience. The Tolon Whiskey sour was perfectly prepared and went down so smoothly, I had two (most unusual for me). My wife enjoyed her rye whiskey cocktail, the Lady & Chef. Lyndsey, our server was engaging, personable and professional in her taking care of us. And, the food was excellent. There were many choices on the diverse menu from which to make our final selection.We shared a grilled shrimp dish for a starter which was a great start to the dining portion of our evening ($22). My wife enjoyed her grilled chicken over roasted cabbage ($34), and my bucatini pasta with bison meat ($38) was tremendously enjoyed. All exquisitely presented. We were too well sated to have dessert, yet left most contented. A great choice and would eagerly return.
