“My Lamb Burger was good! Nice indoor seating and very clean. The Beginning Burger & Nashville Hot Chicken, onion rings and fries all good! Friendly staff. We even received complimentary Birthday Desserts. Great Place Downtown! Will be back🥳💜“

“Good burgers, great fries! I love their Ranch which is always a plus for me. Excellent server in a calm chill environment. Come check it out!“

“while people seem to be review bombing over support in the Isreal v Palestine conflict which seems to be the hottest button in the world right now, my review is about the food, service, staff and atmosphere. The service is top notch, drinks on the tables in less than a minute and food out in less than 10 minutes, mind you we sat at a bar table that the bartenders take care of on top of serving the entire bar rail, they still got drinks out lighting fast and checked on us several times. the burgers were HUGE and delicious, and the fries were perfect. The selection of beers on tap were great and uncommon to find at other bars. the atmosphere was great, loved the music and it was just loud enough to vibe to while still being able to have an audible conversation. The staff was very accommodating and the hostess had a table cleaned off for us immediately, she and the bar staff were great! They have an open kitchen and it looks like the cooks enjoy what they do and have fun with it, which is nice to see and not very common. We will definitely be back next time we're in town.“

“Our first time eating here. Sat outside with the pups. Service was AMAZING! The burger was one of the best I’ve had in a long time! And the sweet potato fries were to die for! Highly recommend!“

“My family was driving through yesterday and wanted to check out something local to try out. This place exceeded our expectations. We walked in, immediately greeted, and the server gave a rundown of the menu being our first time. The food came our pretty quick and the food was incredible. The server brought out shake samples for us to decide which we wanted. All tasted great as well. Overall, terrific experience! We will definitely be back next time in town!“

“Best Food!! Great Service!!!“

“I had dinner recently at Burger Theory after a flight from Houston. The staff were friendly and the restaurant was clean & welcoming. I ordered a Farm Fresh burger and fries. It was delicious. The service was excellent and I didn’t wait long for my to-go order. I would definitely recommend stopping in for lunch or dinner.“

“[order on 4/30 @ 4:22pm]

Love love love the ‘shroom burger and spicy fries with ranch.

The location is in a busy area near a parking garage stop it makes it very accessible.
They also have some on street parking (for people brave enough to parallel park, I am not brave like that lol)

The dining area was very nice with a great atmosphere and very spacious.

I ordered on app, but noticed very easy to use ordering tablets right near the entrance.

The staff near the pick up area were very friendly and greeted me. Behind the counter looked very clean

There were two all-gender bathrooms, I didn’t go in both of them- but the bathroom to the left did have a child changing table.“

“The best burger in Indianapolis!!! The Chef and his team are doing some amazing things. Go check them out, you can thank me later!!“

“Amazing handcrafted drinks“

“This place is a great breakfast, brunch spot. Always warm and welcoming, friendly and fast service. I got a to go order today for the first time. Still efficient service but they didn't give me any condiments. it's fine because we're eating at home but if you want some with your to go, make sure you ask. I've been here about a dozen times and I can't wait for my next visit. Give them a shot! worth it!!“

“A friend of mine was singing, so I made a reservation. The process was very easy and I received a text to confirm my table was ready. The staff was very nice and accommodating-as I gave up my table reservation to others with a larger party to sit on the patio (I was alone). The menu for the event was beautifully tailored and the bar staff was incredibly attentive. The ambiance was lovely, despite the quick rain, and it made for an enjoyable Saturday evening.“

“The place to go to when we want a homestyle breakfast! Always great service and fast!“

“Beautiful experience last night here for our wedding anniversary. Staff was so friendly and accommodating. I had the chef’s tasting menu which was amazing. Thank you all for a fun night and amazing food! We will be back!“

“We found a new great restaurant! Great service. Friendly people. Wonderful food. Fried green tomatoes were to die for!“

“Don't judge a book by its cover because this small diner is HUGE with flavor..“

“I really liked my chicken sandwich and fries. The Strawberry lemonade was good too. It came out hot and quickly. I will be back!“

“Its refreshing to come to Barringers Tavern. The service from Marcus is what I appreciate most. He is always welcoming, funny and considerate. That is the main reason I visit Barringers with my friends regularly.“

“Edit: It's been four years, and the service is still great! Thanks Gavin for the hot, fresh food, and fast, friendly service!

I am loving the new kiosks that they have in there. It makes it nice and easy to order what you want, get your drink, and just sit down until your food is ready. They also have super helpful and friendly staff that have no problem explaining how to use the kiosks or helping you get things. Definitely one of my favorite places to eat, especially considering that it costs as much as McDonald's but tastes three times better“

“service - 10/10 Food - 13/10“

“One of the best individual fast food restaurants I’ve ever been to. Their drive through is fast, accurate, & the food that comes out of it is well made & handed to you by polite employees. I’ve also biked to it & gone inside to pick up my food & it’s no different there: clean place with fast, good food.“

“Greeted friendly and warmly music wasn't cranked too much could still hear myself think bartender was great took my order fast food came out prompt best burger I've had in ages mushroom swiss heavy Mayo heavy pickle medium rare fantastic loved every bite freeze came out hot crispy ready to go but not overly cooked wash it down with a strawberry blonde that was light and fruity would definitely go back again also has an area that separates kids from the main bar area so adults can be adults and families can be families“

“Love this place! Food is always delicious and service is on point. The manager is so nice and accommodating because we usually have large groups. Highly recommend!!“

“food was yummy, not over priced . friendly atmosphere. fast service“

“Visiting our old stomping ground for our Forum reunion.“

“The food was good but my boyfriends tea was cross contaminated with fruit from another customers drink the concern was brushed off as if it was no big deal. So if you have any allergies pay attention to your drinks or food.“

“Literally the best breakfast food ever!!! Never disappointed. Best part of having to make trips to Riley is eating here.“

“I don’t know who answers the phone at the Downtown location. But she is so nice and so professional. She helped me with the situation and was as kind as I would ever want to expect from somebody. Thank you so much. Also, we found this place by accident recently and we have fallen in love with Pizza so we really do enjoy going here.“

“2nd time here, 1st time was ok, today was better. I did learn that it's under new management starting January '26. The menu has changed a lot since it 1st opened and it's way clearer. Tried the Cajun fries this time, definitely worth it!
To those who tried it in the past and didn't like it, give it another chance and be patient, it's all fresh made to order, not premade fast food.“

“good service Robert corrected our issues couldn't be happier“

“Hands down the best food in Johnson County with the best staff and more than affordable prices. We are regulars every weekend.“

“Update on my review 4/22
They need to put the women on the fries and behind the scene. They attitudes are horrible. I could barely finish reciting my order before being cut off several times . I was never told my total .. i get to the window the lady had to ask another lady what my total was . I didn’t receive a receipt just a blank stare waiting for my payment without even being told how much i had to pay. Pls put Sunday back on the window ! His bright smile and energy is missed

Sunday always is a joy to see at the window !!“

“Great food. Enjoyed the cucumbers.“

“Came here this afternoon and our server, Justin, and the other boys working did an amazing job. They were very attentive, constantly bussed the table so it was clean, and just overall so sweet and friendly. The food was cooked well and it was just overall a pleasant experience. Bonus: They had a fun playlist playing. :)“

“Best food and the very best people!!!😁😋😍“

“Best Burger King in Indy! They deserve a recognition for amazing food and customer service! The managers there know us by now and they never disappoint! The food is so fresh and I even change my mind sometimes and they are so polite about it! We go out of our way to go here because we refuse to go to the one by the mall on 31 where they treat you terrible and the food is cold. This is worth going a little out of the way! 👏🏻🏆“

“We were looking for pizza delivery and found this little gem by chance. It arrived hot and fast! We tried the Big Boy and the Taco Pizza - both were delicious! We rarely order food but this will be our new go-to, for sure! The service was also too-notch; very friendly people!!“

“Jesse and Deann Are the absolute best.“

“Burgers are good but you forgot my fries 😡“

“I just enjoy their food. Good taste, ample portions, great onion rings. Just great food.“

“This Hardee’s in Nora has to be the best Hardee’s in Indianapolis. Always clean and the service is always fast and friendly. The food is always hot. They take a lot of time and effort to put up seasonal decorations. Fast and friendly service that equals Chick-fil-A! Whoever manages this particular store really knows what they are doing!“

“That was an amazing burger.“

“I’m huge fan of five guys. I try to never write negative reviews. This is not a condemnation of five guys in general. I’ve never had a bad meal in store. I just spent 31.00 on a DoorDash order. Huge mistake. I’ll never make again. The fries were over cooked and soggy. Not even hyperbole when I say my dog didn’t even want them. The burger bowl was cold. Clearly remade and not edible. The order got to me faster than most In store orders I’ve made. Seriously. I’ll eat at five guys but ONLy in store. Worst DoorDash order. Ever. Have to say though the food quality lies completely at your place. Do better.“
