“When I tell you I love this place. You have no idea I live about 2 hours away and will make a trip JUST to go here and eat. The burgers are fun unique and so appetizing. My mouth waters just looking at the pics. The fries are to DIE FOR! And if you like Garlic Aoli its only like .50 cents if I remember right to add it”

2 BRU Burger Bar Carmel

12901 Old Meridian Street, Carmel

• Take-Out

“Came in with a group, we had the upstairs room then told we had to be gone by 7pm We reserved the room at 515. So with that said, servers ok. Food came at 645. Manager told the group that we need to be out by then. 7pm because it was reserved for another group at 7. He told us that the staff didn’t inform him about it. Really kinda not our problem at that time. We were 30+ strong. Kids and all. I walked out at 715. Doesn’t seem right. Not mad but a concern with staff and communication. Food good, service ok, slow at times , restaurant was not totally full. I could see open tables. Yes I would come back, but come on. The manager should have known of the situation and made a plan B the weather was in the 70’s they could have used the courtyard. Ok sorry done.”

Non of my kids finished the little burgers. It may be pricey but nobody leaves hungry. My daughter picked it fir her birthday lunch X) It must be goood.”

Flavorful. And for the price it was even more amazing. We will come back for sure. It’s also a great grocery store if you haven’t been.”

12 Culver’s

3.8 Good 165 Reviews

431 East Carmel Drive, Carmel

• Delivery

“I genuinely enjoy Culver's food, but ordering it sometimes feels like taking an exam I forgot to study for! 😂 Both the indoor and drive-thru menus are unnecessarily overwhelming, with tiny text, scattered categories, and a Value Basket option that feels like a game of Where's Waldo. The drive-thru doesn't even display all the available options! A more organized layout and some simple numbered combos would make ordering so much easier. I actually tried ordering through the app because it's much easier to navigate, but it wouldn't accept my order about 20 minutes before closing. That reminds me, I wish this location stayed open a little later! Everything I've tried has been delicious, and I'll happily return. Culver's, I love your food, but please make it easier for me to order it! 😅”

“Quick service, clean store, and friendly employees. Yes, this McDonald's has it all. I used the drive-thru to place and pick up an order. There were about 5 cars ahead of me and thought it may take a while to get my order...but no. The staff is on point and I pulled out about 5 minutes later. The food was hot when I returned to the hospital and made correctly. This is the best McDonald's I've ever visited! Hands down...they rock!”
