“We recommend Salt on Mass for its incredible consistency. The experience is always welcoming and forever delicious. My husband David treated us to a delightful dining experience for Valentine's Day Eve. (I love dining "off holiday" for a more peaceful pace.) We've dined at Salt on Mass many times and continue to be thrilled with our experience. We reserved through Open Table and were seated immediately with our on-time arrival. I love a table with a view of the room's comings and goings, so #41 was ideal, again. We were welcomed by our server Ryan, who explained he was also our bartender. (Love it - special insights on cocktails and wines.) He served us well, attentive but not too much so, and we loved his creative chocolate martini as our "appetizer." :-) We chose our dinner favorites - Chilean Sea Bass with delectable risotto for David and Salmon with expertly grilled asparagus for me. The portions remain appropriately generous, so we split the Key-Lime Chiffon Cake for dessert. Congratulations Johnny and crew for delivering another memory-making visit. Each one leaves us craving the next! Here's to you all! Sincerely satisfied, Garnet and David 2-13-25“

“Amazing personal customer service. Food is excellent and staff is very accommodating. Highly recommend!“

“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!“

“This was my third visit to Slapfish at this location, and once again, the food was absolutely delicious. I went with my BFF and daughter, and since we arrived not long after they opened, we were able to enjoy the patio—bug-free, which was a huge plus! 😁

I had also placed a to-go order, and the staff was kind enough to let me know they’d prepare it fresh whenever I was ready. The service throughout our meal was excellent—the food came out quickly, everything was top quality, and our server checked in often to make sure we were taken care of.

When it was time to leave, I let them know I was ready for my to-go order, and they had it ready in no time (so fast I wasn’t even ready to go yet!). The restaurant was clean, the atmosphere was welcoming, and the staff went above and beyond to make the whole experience smooth and enjoyable.

I’ll definitely keep coming back!“

“I loved the food and service. We had the Clobster cakes which were so fresh and delish. The greenery that looked liked decor was actually a delicious salad.

I always get two because it's nothing like it, lol. I also got the Grilled BBQ Salmon burger, chefs, kiss cause, WHAT, LOL!!! So freaking good, like I can't even express how happy I am that they are back open. The cabbage alone will keep me coming back. I'm just excited. I hope the community continues to support so that you can keep yall doors OPEN!!! LOL“

“Made my Aunt Maggie 99th Birthday’s Celebration so wonderful we will be back next year.“

“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.“

“We had a private event there and I can’t say enough good about the service on the night of the event. They went above and beyond to make sure everyone’s meal was perfect. The service was to the level I have had at the finest of restaurants. Now, was it difficult to get through their phone system (yes) but that has nothing to do with the staff. I am over the top pleased with the staff, food, price and service.“
