BRU Burger Bar - Fort Wayne

My husband and I went here for lunch for my birthday. We were greeted as soon as we walked in. Our server Zach was amazing and super sweet. They had a separate gluten free menu and were knowledgeable about their menu. They also have vegan cheese and the burger was delicious. Lorenzo, the chef, made a special birthday dessert that was gluten and dairy free for me that was delicious and made the day so special. My husband did not have a gluten and dairy free meal. The fries are gluten free and made in a separate fryer but has the chance for cross contamination, which was fine for me. Words cannot express how much I love going to restaurants who have amazing staff and so many options for gluten and dairy free that I can eat as well. We will definitely come back again.

Editing for an update! My son and I went back for a second try and it was a whole different experience! Great food, Emma our server was amazing, and the manager Sydney was more than great! I wasn't sure we'd be back but definitely coming back! First time eating here after hearing good reviews from friends. Sadly, I was very disappointed. We started with the Bru Fries. They were either way over fried or cooked in old grease. A large portion of them were crunchy and even looked burned (see picture). I ordered the patty melt and it was so greasy I could only eat half of it and by son's Bourbon burger was just as bad. I really wanted to enjoy this place but I really don't think we'll be back.

RUN, DON’T WALK TO BRU BURGER BAR did you know they have a triple brownie challenge? we didn’t either, we just came in for a casual meal and the opportunity presented itself. AFTER a full burger with fries, the girls and I ate 3 brownies in 16 minutes. the room filled with claps of support as we clasped arms and finished the last bite. the big city feel and small town prices vibe of Fort Wayne cannot be unmatched. our waitress was incredible and encouraged us to treat ourselves after a long hard work week. I even signed up for the rewards card because I’m in my extreme couponing era. Thank you Bru burger for giving us a night to remember.

Attended the Happy Hour Specials from 3pm to 5:30pm Mon- Thurs. I ordered the Buttermilk Fried Chicken Tenders with Chipotle BBQ sauce with a side of seasoned fries that come with their awesome ketchup. It was so good, I ordered another order to go. The chicken tenders are so juicy, lightly breaded & just an amazing appetizer for two people or dinner for 1 two nights. They taste even better the next day warmed up. I went on a Thursday around 4pm & it was not busy. Service was quick & efficient. The place is clean, people are very friendly/helpful & I wouldn't think twice to come here again. The Nachos are awesome also as are the huge Onion Rings. Tell Emma @ the Bar or Samantha a server Johnathon Doe sent you. :) Just visited again on Oct 28th & ordered the Buttermilk Breaded Chicken ten

Zach is amazing- come ask for him. Super friendly. Food is exceptional. Black bean burger, mac n cheer and triple dip was so good. Will come again.
