“We LOVE Vida❤️! The food was phenomenal, the service was fantastic (shoutout to Miss Shanna!), and it has an atmosphere of elegance. The personalized touches throughout our visit, such as calling us by name right off the bat, wine samples when we couldn't decide which to get, and an Amuse-bouche from the chef that was beyond words made it spectacular. I highly recommend making the trip to Vida!“
“Hadn't been back in a while. It's the best it's ever been right now. Food was delicious and I've been three times in the last couple of months. This is a really good option for a delicious healthy meal in a great atmosphere.“
“Amazing cocktails and mocktails. Sad at how much I like this place bc I hate leaving my home but will definitely make the trip downtown for this place. The staff was so kind and helpful and I really liked the vibe. The food was delicious and I can’t wait to try more items. We have two appetizers. They were amazing!“
“I love coming to this Metro location specifically. You can’t go wrong with the breakfast or the lunch but the breakfast is on point. Especially their chicken and waffles. Our server Imani was above and beyond when it came to service. She was very efficient, personable, and offered great recommendations. Definitely will return in the future.“
“Great food! Spicy garlic breaded bone-in wings are the bomb! Dirty Blonde beer was an excellent suggestion from our server, Alexandra. Service was spot on. Restaurant was very clean and a great environment. Sign up on their website and get a free entree for your birthday.“
“The sides, despite how generous in size, were priced well and delicious. We tried the sweet potato crock and cole slaw and both were very good iterations of their respective recipes.The appetizers seem priced a little expensive for how small they are. We tried the hush puppies and if they offered more pieces, we'd definitely order again.The mainstay of this restaurant is the fried chicken. For the price, the portions are fair and available in dark meat, white meat, and chicken half variants. To be honest, the breading was a little disappointing. It was a bit overcooked and browned instead of the gold you would expect from a crispy piece of chicken. Maybe the staff was having an off day.The restaurant smelled like a very clean Brothers Bar and Grill, which is to say there's probably a heavy drinking crowd at night. I would still go again, but only in the day.The waiter was very helpful, knew the menu inside and out, and attentive. The restaurant itself looks like it was AI-generated so you can tell it's some corporate franchise but otherwise it's a cute spot. If you have a picky eater to deal with, this is a good restaurant to choose.“
“A beautiful and amazing restaurant all around! My husband and I had our anniversary dinner last night, and the staff went above and beyond to make this one of the best dining experiences we ever had! All the food and drinks we had were beyond amazing! Thank you for making our night so memorable!“
“Consistently great service, delicious food, and a very cool atmosphere. Allowed me to have a quick bite yesterday as needed but was also very welcome to taking my time when I wanted to relax. Excited to eat here again next time I'm in town!“
“Was looking for Brunch on maps and decided to check it out on a whim. And the food was amazing!!! We watched them making biscuits by scratch in the back. Food took a while to come, but knowing it was all made from scratch made the wait worth it. Would go back if I’m in town!“
“I can’t tell you how great it is to have this restaurant in our community. Truly a staple in our neighborhood. It’s always a great place to bring friends from out of state to get a flavor of Hoosier Hospitality. It’s just one of those must visit places that gives you the Hoosier vibe we all need from time to time.“
“Small but nice dining experience. The beef filet was a bit salty with the sauce that came with it. Was cooked to perfection though. We were celebrating a birthday, I noted on my reservation, and the server said nothing about it. I had to ask her about it! Will probably go back but not for a special occasion.“
“Food, service, and drinks were excellent. Had the shrimp corn dogs, lobster waffle, duck with duck, and wild mushroom paella. They were all fantastic. I really need to keep this spot in rotation. It’s a bit out of my bubble, so I forget about it. Last night really jogged my memory“
“First of all, if your music lover, this is an amazing venue. They're literally isn't a bad seat in the house. Generally when I get into a music venue, expect the food to be just OK but here it's absolutely delicious. We went to see Rock E. Bassoon and it was amazing. We didn't realize that they were in effect and opening act but the guy they opened with was really great. Definitely worth checking this place out.“
“I grew up next to a legit deli and this definitely is that and then some! Excellent food and drinks. It's certainly more of a restaurant vibe than the get your pastrami on rye to go version of a deli.... and the better for it if you're looking for a relaxed lunch.The Caesar actually had anchovy like it should and rye croutons for an extra treat. The tallow fries are furreal. Reminded us of Hot Doug's duck fat fries in Chicago back in the day.We're newer to Indy and Turchettis was recommended by friends as "good but pricey" which we are learning is the Midwest version of 5 ⭐, 10 out of 10 highly recommend. It's a 10-15$ sandwich and worth every penny!“
Breakfast • $
“Great place for breakfast or lunch. I got the steak salad and it was amazing. I added gyro meat and extra avocado. The quality was excellent as was the service. I really liked their coffee as well. Our server and the owner Gina went out of their way to make our visit pleasant. Gina is so friendly and we enjoyed chatting with her. I can't wait to return. We almost went to Cafe Patachu. I am so glad we chose this over that. There were way more options. I am doing a keto diet and I found plenty of options. My husband loved the french toast. He said the bacon and potatoes were hot and crispy. The eggs were hot and fluffy. It's really hard to find quality food with good service. This place is it! To top it all off the ambiance was very unique and special. We loved the Hawaiian theme and tasteful unique decor. Please come support this lovely locally owned business.“
“We had an amazing time here! Got to the cafe at around 11:30 and got seated right away at the bar. Connor, our server, was super friendly. Food came out shortly after it was placed. Make sure you try their famous cinnamon toast! Parfait and chili were delicious too. Parking was easy, a ton of street parking available. Would definitely come back again!“
“Finally got a chance to go to this restaurant with some friends. It is a hole in the wall place. Seems like a lot of local people have gone for years. I enjoyed being there and the food was good. I did notice that the noise level was up making it hard to talk in a normal manner.Sometimes this is just the way it goes. Definitely worth a visit. I will give them a second chance.“
“Came for a birthday dinner. Our party got the lobster ravioli, indiana duck, and short ribs for the entrees. For appetizer we had the mackerel cakes, fried, and loaded mashed potatoes. Our server knew his way around multiple wines and spirits and was just a great guy all around! Would definitely return“
“Love this place! They are know. For their tenderloin which is amazing. There are so many more gems! Pork nachos with their own smoked pork, greuben sandwich, berry greens salad and their fish tacos are always great choices. Their soups are made from scratch and delicious. They have a wide selection of beers on tap and a box of wines to choose from for 1/2 price. Staff is friendly and very proficient.“
“Amazing, amazing amazing! Such a great little gem of a restaurant in a fun area of town. The food was great but what stood out to me was the service and the wine list. We ordered a bottle of a well priced Willamette Valley pinot noir that was excellent. I liked it so much that I took a picture of the label to be able to purchase it at a local wine shop. We asked the server about the bread pudding as we typically try it everywhere we go. We were torn to try the signature dessert (doughnuts) or the bread pudding and decided we had to try both. The server was so kind and ended up comping our dessert in the idea that we were "taste testing" the menu and it needed to be done for "scientific reasons." We were very appreciative and certainly didn't expect that. Great service, Great food, & Great vibe!“
“I attended a conference at the Indy Convention Center the last 4 days. Stayed at the JW Marriott. High Velocity is located in that hotel. It became my main eating place during my stay. The food is very good and moderately priced. I especially enjoyed the sweet potato fries and the short rib tacos. The service was excellent. I highly recommend High Velocity for those staying at the JW Mariott in Indianapolis.“
“Today was my husband and my first time at Tams and it exceeded our expectations! The food was delicious and the staff was so warm and welcoming. & the salted caramel brownie was easily the best brownie we’ve ever had!! 11/10 would recommend“
“Crunchy shrimp tacos=GREAT‼️There WERE 4, but I couldn’t wait and ate the 1st delicious one quickly!! ??vodka tonic!Heading down to their Speakeasy “Bootleggers” next ~. An awesome evening out!BJ-bartender, wonderful!!!Chef Glenn Brown, wonderful!!!Get yourself out to the FLATIRON!?????“
“Rob, Lou and any of the other staff I've interacted with have been amazing. Perfect dive bar for downtown Indy. Great price on food and it's Delicious. Will definitely be around regularly. The Garlic Parm Pizza Rolls are my kryptonite. Rob's Hot Honey Biscuits and Gravy is bussin so get it while it's hot.“
“As unbelievable as this may sound, not a single state has an official sandwich. And after eating the unofficial state sandwich of Indiana I think I know why. First things first though, according my extensive internet research, the official unofficial state sandwich of Indiana is the Pork Tenderloin. And if you are only going to eat one, which was the plan, then it should be eaten at the Aristocrat Pub & Restaurant. It comes on a bun (mine was oddly from Toronto) that covers a maximum of 33% of the loin, with lettuce, tomato, and three dill pickle coins and a loin eater's choice of ketchup, mayo and/or mustard (I chose mayo). For some it might be advisable to share. Washed down by a draft Ayinger Lager: Excellent!!! So good in fact I'm thinking I'll share another with Mrs. AAR if the opportunity arises. Oh, yeah, the reason why this great country lacks even one official state sandwich¹ may be the same reason this country can't provide adequate health care . . . politics. In Indiana's case House Bill 1143 has languished since 2023 possibly due to pushback from the Polish sausage and fried brain sandwich lobby. ¹ According to Wikipedia the "Taylor Ham, Egg, and Cheese," is the only official state sandwich. It was made "official" by the New Jersey governor on May 25, 2023, though this might just be due to the Taylor Swift's impending visiting to MetLife Stadium. Either way it has not been been approved by the state legislature.“
“What great dinner!First of all our servant, Brennan, helpful, attentive, friendly, enthusiastic. A true son of Indiana! Everything you would expect a great restaurant to have.I had the 14 ounce dry aged ribeye with green beans. The Mrs. had the 8 ounce ribeye with mash. We could not resist the famous shrimp cocktail, which we washed down with a bottle of Hess Allomi Cabernet Sauvignon topped off with the Woodford Reserve bread pudding with caramel sauce and ice cream. What an experience truly one of Indianapolis’ finest!Aloha nui to your team Harry and Izzy’s!?❤️?“
“This is the classic American Burger place. Lots of burger choices and good classic sides are offered. They have other items including other sandwiches and salads but the burgers are the star! Quality meat and fresh veggies make even a basic burger a treat! I have not tried their shakes yet, but they lk amazing!“
“First time in. Had to get the cheeseburger and fries based on FB recommendations. Did not disappoint. Sat at the bar. Cheeseburger was cooked well. Got fries that were very good. My neighbor's onion rings looked pretty good too. Nothing fancy. Just good food.“
“The wandering Canadian here! The Slippery Noodle is one of the premiere places to go in Indy! So many amazing memories have been made here, in the past and today. The food, the atmosphere, the staff are all amazing. Tatum ensured our rowdy crew behaved and had the time of our lives. Thank you!“
“Shortly after we arrived to The Oakmont my Blood Sugar dropped. We were sitting at the bar and the kind Bartender took good care of me. He got me orange juice and kept refilling my drink quickly. He got my food very promptly. I really appreciated his attention. My yogurt bowl with fruit and granola was delicious and my blood sugar came back up shortly thereafter. At that point I was able to enjoy spending time with my family (all over 21) and was able to take in the wonderful atmosphere. The rest of my family also enjoyed the great food. To the Bartender, Thank you so very much!Dietary restrictions: Being diabetic I found several items on the menu that I could eat. I chose the yogurt bowl with fruit and granola. It was delicious. Husband had biscuits and gravy with an egg over easy and he enjoyed every bite.“
“AJs is hands down my favorite place to eat. We go here as often as we can and we order food from them ALL the time. The food NEVER MISSES. Not one time has the food been sub par or anything less than perfect. And I am talking about dozens and dozens of time. Not just a handful. No where else has consistently cooked delicious food. It would even be okay if they had a miss once in a while, but they just don’t. Lol. When I ask my kids what they want to eat for dinner it is AJs 9/10 times. We mostly order out but when we dine in, the staff is amazing and the times are fast. When I just sit at the bar for a drink, the bartenders are friendly and attentive. I’ve only been to live music once a while ago, but had a great time. Thank you AJs!! Keep being exceptional!!“
“My son and I was in the area and decided to stop in. Parking was overwhelming. Once we got in we were seated with the most amazing, attentive, respectful, aesthetic friendly server, Mailiyah. She was so polite. Provided a lot of fun facts about the menu and the owner! Super cute! The food was delicious! We’ll be back as long as Mailiyah is there with her big bright smile!“
“Great place with an industrial feel. The shrimp and grits are incredibly good. The chicken and waffles with the hot (spicy) honey is fantastic. We split 2 entrees between 3 people. A perfect fit.Definitely recommend reservations, but we had no problem getting a seat at the bar.Riley and Lindsey were friendly and attentive. Great recommendations from them for food and drinks.“
“This is my 'go to' place. Consistently good food and always great service. Diverse menu for lunch and dinner. Great salads, steaks, calamari etc. The prime rib on Friday and Saturday has been to die for lately. Well maintained, clean and a great local hangout. Recommend for sure. Back some more and again and all still awesome here! Join us if you dare“
“This has become one of my favorite restaurants in Indianapolis. The services is fantastic! The food in all its glory has its individual flavors and the portions are shareable. U am a margarita girl and we’ll let me say they are fresh with a twist!!! Every time I have been has been nothing short of stellar! Great job keep it up and don’t change the recipes as everything was a hit!!!! Not to mention we made reservations for 7 and ended up with 13 and they made accommodations for seating. A hidden gem“
“We did some work for the owners of Flatwater and they were beyond hospitable. Barrett, a well known chef there bought us lunch. The Reuben was amazing. We'll be sure to stop in for lunch on our own dime as often as possible! Great place, food, atmosphere, staff and ownership!“
“As usual the food was good the location is a bit awkward to drive around traffic is very heavy in this area but overall perfect experience that you would expect from Culver's even got a free Shake because someone accidentally made one extra star for that “
“seen this place and thought i would give it a shot! So glad i did great food the cook and bartender were very nice and welcomed me in. I will be back for sure 100 percent . The place was clean very nice inside and like i said the food was perfect. Got back to work and told all the guys that rhis place will be the one we will get food from. Dont know what it was but they treated me and cooked for me some great food . Now i will bring the wife its a good place and i dont write reviews but i felt this place needs to be reconized for a great place to eat.Thank you Good Spot i will be back?????????“
“My family and I recently celebrated my mother's birthday at Provision. The staff and management went above and beyond to accommodate our large group, even with unexpected additional guests. Their kindness and professionalism made us feel welcome.The food exceeded my expectations in every way. Unfortunately, it looked so delicious and tasted even better that I forgot to capture photos! My mother was absolutely delighted with the location and the overall experience. My partner and I are already planning to return for our next date night. I highly recommend Provision to anyone looking for a quality dining experience. Thank you to the Provision team for making our celebration memorable. I will certainly be back.“
“This was our first time to Yolk and the food was terrific! The restaurant is clean, the wait staff was great, and we had an awesome family brunch! This is definitely a special occasion restaurant with the prices, but you definitely get what you pay for and won’t leave hungry. The hardest part is choosing something from a menu with so many unique options available. My kids both chose the “S’mores pancakes,” I had the “Hey Ricky” omelet, and my wife had the “Very Berry” French Toast.Serving sizes are enormous! The omelets are 5 egg and come with two pancakes and a side like cheesy grits (yum!), kids had two full sized pancakes, and the French toast consisted of three 1-inch thick slices of bread cut into halves.After food, walk down the street a little and get your picture by the butterfly wings.Kid-friendliness: Kids loved having specialty pancake options.“
“This place is a top place nice store the employees are friendly the store is clean the food they have is really good and delicious the best wings I have had in a while loved this place definitely will be back here soon highly recommended if you are looking for a nice and clean food and restaurant this place is the go too!“
“I was hungry last week on a Friday and I saw this restaurant near an acquaintance's home so I went in at sat at the bar to order some food. Even though I waited a little bit for service, one of the bartenders gave me a menu after asking for one. I ordered the fish and chips with coleslaw and the chicken fingers for my Daddy. After one bite of the fish, it was so hot and delicious and fried to perfection and fries and coleslaw was awesome too. And I'm sure the chicken fingers were good .“
“I had the burger and fries. Very good. And our server, Sarah was very pleasant, had a nice attitude and did a great job.Dietary restrictions: My daughter is vegan, and wife restricting her diet. Sarah got it all right, and they enjoyed their meals.Kid-friendliness: We had 2 toddlers and 3 young boys and 4 adults. Staff was very kind and patient with them got their kids meals out quickly.“
“First off, let me just say that the bar staff here are so friendly truly made my experience here memorable. I had just left the bar nowhere special before I walked into this establishment, which where I had an awful experience at, and I decided to try The ball & biscuit and I’m so glad that I did. The cocktail menu they have available here was amazing but I’m a pretty picky person when it comes to my taste preferences in craft cocktails. I expressed my preferences to Casey the bartender and her and Ryan both worked together in coming up with a delicious cocktail to fit what I wanted. I was extremely impressed with the cocktail they made for me based off of me just stating that I loved egg whites and gin. My cocktail was delicious, they had created a grapefruit gin fiz for me and the presentation of the cocktail was amazing. The bar staff and Todd also gave me some wonderful suggestions as to other places I could visit as a tourist in this city which was super helpful. I hope to visit this place soon with friends. Thank you for this wonderful experience.“
“Bartender Shay was on point! I was there two days watching the mens and womens NCAA tournament. It was extremely busy yet she took the time to connect with every guest. First time there, definitely not the last. Hope Shay is behind the bar again!“
“This is the perfect place to have a nice lunch with smiles, laughs, and very welcoming individuals. The food is great no matter what you pick with mostly diner style food and incredible fries and tots? Great family run small business that has been around a long time. True Indianapolis staple, make sure you try the double decker BLT??Kid-friendliness: Coloring menus at every tableWheelchair accessibility: Easy up front parking and open tables to handicap“
“Stopped in after a tour of the Speedway. Staff was friendly from the start. Our server was friendly and attentive. The waffle my daughter ate was so delicious. Love the vanilla in the batter! Their gravy is some of the best I've had that went on top of my meal. Will definitely stop by again if I'm in the “
“I’m going to be as fair and as honest as possible with this review. I’ve heard from multiple people to try this place because of the stew, so I did today for the first time. 1 stew topped cheeseburger and 1 stew topped Tenderloin and my bill was $32.09. No sides, no drinks, and no bread supplied with the tenderloin. Just meat in a pizza box and a container of stew. Now, with that being said, the tenderloin was very good, the stew was very good, and the burger was nothing special. But when I carry out a tenderloin, a burger, and a small container of stew, for my money, there is better out there. I’m not trashing the business at all. Their food is pretty good, but I can’t justify spending 32$ on 2 sandwiches. If I had a recommendation to offer, it would be a little more bang for your buck. For example, an 8oz steak, 2 sides, salad and drink at Texas Roadhouse is $14.99…a tenderloin with stew on it with no bun, no sides, no drink and no fixings at your establishment is more. If I come back again in the future, I’ll probably just stick to your namesake.“
“Dugout has long been on my list of bars to try but I never got the opportunity to until this Friday while trying to post up for the Purdue game. Drink specials are phenomenal, $9 pitchers of either Yuengling or Miller Lite is a steal. The bar food is pretty decent as well so if you get hungry I recommend the pizza as it too is reasonably priced. Overall this is a top spot to watch sports, no shortage of tvs and room to post up. Obviously you don't want to show up too close to tipoff because it will be standing room only.“
“We went in for breakfast finally after hearing about it for months and never really finding the time. Our waitress Rene was awesome. My coffee never got cold and never ran out (because she was so attentive to it). The food was delicious. I got the fruity waffle which came topped with very fresh strawberries and bananas. Also got grits and eggs which came out hot and cooked/ seasoned very well (not over seasoned, just right for me). We never felt like we were waiting for the waitress to come back around like you do at some places. Rene was very attentive even though it seemed like she had a ton of tables and people to look after.Parking: We got there pretty early and found the parking lot empty but passing by it’s usually pretty full in front of the restaurant. It’s in a strip so there’s plenty of parking around if you don’t mind a walk. After having been in, it’s no surprise why the parking lot fills up fast; it’s a go to for many because it’s such a pleasant experiences all around.“
