The food here was absolutely incredible! Every dish was packed with flavor, beautifully presented, and clearly made with care. From the first bite to the last, everything was fresh and perfectly seasoned.

What really made our visit stand out, though, was the outstanding service from Katelin. She went above and beyond to make sure our dining experience was perfect—checking in at just the right times, offering great recommendations, and making us feel genuinely welcome. Her friendly attitude and attention to detail made the meal that much more enjoyable.

I can’t recommend this place enough. If you’re looking for amazing food paired with top-notch service, ask for Katelin—you won’t be disappointed!

Chubby Trout Replied: Thank you so much for your incredible review! We’re absolutely thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the food and that every dish left a lasting impression—from flavor to presentation. We’re especially happy to hear your kind words about Katelin. She truly embodies the level of care and hospitality...

This is such a great little place to stop in during a road trip. I don't expect a place like this in a small stopover town like Elkhart. They have lots of great stuff on their menu, including hard to find fish, sushi rolls prepared in house, and good sides.

Chubby Trout Replied: Thank you for the five star review and feedback. We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed our hidden gem 😍 We take pride, knowing we have many guest passing through that enjoy it! we sure hope that you’ll be back through and we can serve you again soon! 😊
