19 Best Steakhouses in Indianapolis

“The food was excellent. The service was horrible. We had many different wait staff come to our table and things were getting mixed up. Our bill was not correct and the waitress at the end acted as if it was the worst thing in the world to go correct it.“

“Best fine dining experience we’ve ever had! Our server was attentive to our needs the entire time and was extremely knowledgeable when it came to the menu. You need to experience this for yourself!! What are you waiting for….schedule your dinner reservations today!“

“The BEST crab cakes EVER!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ John and I had the absolute pleasure of dining at St. Elmo Steak House for Mother’s Day last year, and it was truly an unforgettable experience from start to finish. The atmosphere felt classic, welcoming, and full of history, which made the evening feel even more special. Our steaks were absolutely incredible — perfectly cooked, flavorful, tender, and honestly some of the best we’ve ever had. You can absolutely tell why St. Elmo’s is so well known. And of course… we have to talk about the famous horseradish cocktail sauce. WOW. It absolutely lives up to the hype. It has the perfect kick and flavor, and it’s one of those things you keep thinking about long after dinner is over. Definitely a must-try experience all on its own. What made the evening even more meaningful was celebrating Mother’s Day there together. Great food always creates memories, and this was one of those dinners we will always look back on fondly. If you’re looking for an amazing steakhouse experience with exceptional food, wonderful service, and a memorable atmosphere, St. Elmo’s is absolutely worth the visit. ❤️“

“We had what may very well have been the most extraordinary dining experience in our 15+ years living in Indianapolis, thanks to the unmatched hospitality of Sean. He is, without question, the best server we have ever had. His attention to detail, warmth, and genuine care elevated an already phenomenal evening into something truly memorable. From the moment we sat down, everything was flawless. We began with oysters and the French onion soup. Do not skip the soup—it is a masterpiece in a bowl. The Chateaubriand arrived perfectly prepared, accompanied by impossibly good fries and glazed carrots that were simply next level. And just when we thought it could not get any better, the chocolate cake arrived. Rich, decadent, and absolutely unforgettable. Geraldine’s is a gem. But it was Sean who turned our night into something we will be talking about for years. We cannot wait to return, and we will be asking for Sean by name.“

“The service and ambiance was amazing🖤“

“First time for my wife and myself, what a great experience!“

“Absolutely phenomenal experience! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a warm, upscale ambiance that set the tone for an unforgettable night. The atmosphere strikes that perfect balance—elegant and modern, yet still comfortable and welcoming. But let’s talk about the food—because wow. Every dish was a masterpiece! Bursting with flavor, beautifully plated, and clearly crafted with top-tier ingredients and serious culinary skill. Each bite was better than the last, and you could tell the kitchen is passionate about what they do. This wasn’t just dinner—it was an experience. If you’re looking for a place that delivers both luxury and soul, this is it. Already counting down the days until I can go back!“

“We had a very pleasant visit at Harry & Izzy's. Our waiter was very attentive and offered much appreciated suggestions as well as keeping our glasses full. He also asked if we were celebrating a special occasion and provided our graduate a free dessert.“

“Very busy night, at the restaurant. The food is always good, waiter mixed up my order, but I'll give that a pass, I always order extra, and staff sometimes think I'm changing my mind, but 3 appetizers is my norm. No I don't est them all but I'm a taster.“

“A very old place. The bathrooms are old. Parking is extremely limited. The only meat I could order medium rare was the steak tips. I could have had a better meal at longhorn steak house! Truely.. no seasoning, VERY BLAN food. Sorry South siders you don't have a Nalyas or The Salt or Harry & Izzys. So much better steak places out there!“
