Fort Wayne loves its pizza and is blessed with many great options! We took a tour of downtown's 3 hot spots to see who's was the best. Pint and Slice, Big Apple, and Johnny Ox are all delicious and each offer a different style for whatever you're craving. Check it out!

You should definitely go to Bistro Nota. It’s a pretty small locally owned restaurant that’s still getting going, but their food is the bomb. Also Alto Grado is also some amazing pizza on the landing. Great to see a local Fort Wayne KZfaqr!

Ah thanks! And Fort Wayne has so much to offer. I’m trying to get more videos out, just a function of time and running a business/being a parent. Really appreciate you watching!

Absolutely love Pint and Slice, and Big Apple, but I've been telling people for years now that the absolute best in FTW is 800° out at Lima, and DuPont!

Not to split hairs here, but is electric works considered downtown? Near southside, maybe?! Los lobos is not downtown. George's isn't downtown. Mad Anthony isn't downtown. Now granted those places are all further south, but only a smidge. I'm not sure I would consider Steve Shine to be downtown. Poormans? Local Electrician union office? Where's the cutoff? Electric Works evidently? Would the river front be the north border? Is west main street downtown? Is Hanna and Washington considered downtown? Is the skatepark at Lawton considered downtown?
