Arrived late into Indianapolis on a Friday night and found this gem down the street from where we were staying. Besides a really cool-looking place with two floors, tons of space, and awesome ambience, the food was outstanding. The spicy shrimp was great! Our waitress was fantastic and I hope we can come back again and visit.

We did not order any food, so did not rate on that. Service was good. Probably just not my vibe, nothing that should keep you from going to make your own decision.

In town for a concert and found this great place! Food was excellent. We had the Social View chicken and I had a gigantic Chef salad that was great. We enjoyed both meals very much and the portions are huge!

Relaxed atmosphere with friendly, attentive staff.

I came here looking for a good stiff drink and something to eat and I found so much more! I was in town as a caregiver for someone receiving medical treatment, and this quickly became my place to come and decompress. On my first visit I was made to feel at home, even though I was 1,500 miles from home. I had a quick drink (or two) and was so excited to come back. Time after time that I came back I was always treated wonderfully - everyone on the team even took care to ask how things were going medically and make sure I was okay, and even eating properly. Social to me isn’t just a bar/restaurant. It was a family experience, when I so desperately needed it

We enjoyed our time here and the food was delicious. There were 7 of us together and everyone got something different and were happy with their selection. Would definitely go back when in Indy.

Their interpretation of calamari is an absolute "must try." Their cocktails are inventive and artistic. Only stopped in for a brief drink, but I would go back to this place.

Came in from a different state for a concert and found this restaurant online. Unfortunately disappointed with poker face waitress and greasy food. Maybe was an off day.

The food was excellent. The service was great! When I say the food is excellent I’m telling you that it’s better than most five star restaurants that we’ve been to downtown Indianapolis. The server Amber was attentive and took care of our every need!

Uninspired bar food that's overpriced outside of happy hour.

The zucchini fritters were fine, if unexceptional. But the creme brulee cheesecake was awful — there was nothing about it that tasted like creme brulee, let alone a crispy crust. The fake whipped cream had nearly dissolved when it was brought out. And overall it lacked the creamy richness you'd expect from cheesecake, to the extent that I was tempted to have a second dessert when I got home.

Nothing was wrong with the service. The atmosphere was nonmemorable. If it'd been diner-level cheap I'd be less harsh. But for restaurant-level prices, the food ought to surpass what you'd get in the grocery store frozen aisle.

Vegetarian options: A few vegetarian options, but not a focus of the menu.
