Fire by the Monon is a nice restaurant just a block west of the Monon Trail in Indianapolis’ Broad Ripple Village. They are known for smoking and firing fresh, local ingredients. Plus, they strive to offer a good selection of local craft beer. Fire by the Monon has ample inside and patio dining, and their staff is extremely friendly. They have several flatbreads on their […]
Pie Five strives to serve customized personal pizzas featuring fresh ingredients as quickly as possible. Even their fountain drink machine fits the customization theme as it is one of the Coke machines that allows you to come up with almost any soda concoction. Pie Five’s recent entry into downtown Indianapolis is a restaurant that occupies an old bakery building, complete with […]
Celebrating its 25th anniversary in 2015, Broad Ripple Brewpub is known as Indiana’s first brewpub. The Brewpub looks like a typical English pub on the inside with dark wood paneling, a tin ceiling, and even a fireplace. Plus, it has a large patio that can seat up to seventy people during nice weather. Broad Ripple Brewpub has […]
My Cuban Pretzel Flatbread at Shoefly Public House really pushed the boundaries of what can evenly remotely be considered pizza, but I found the restaurant and this dish worthy of a post nonetheless. Shoefly is located at 22nd and Talbott Street in Indianapolis and was created to offer this area a place for a quick […]
The Cheesecake Factory in the Keystone Fashion Mall on Indy’s north side must be doing something right because they are always busy, and I give them credit for having quick service despite the crowds. Part of their draw may be that they have something for everyone with one of the biggest menus I have ever seen. […]
Palomino Restaurant & Bar is a pretty classy place, yet it manages to not be stuffy. They have locations in a few states, and I dined at their restaurant in downtown Indianapolis, right by Circle Center Mall. I started with their Tomato-Basil Bruschetta and enjoyed it. The Roma tomatoes and basil were good, and the herb oil […]
Oobatz! Restaurant could best be described as a slightly upscale sports bar, and they have two locations in central Indiana – one in Zionsville and one at Keystone at the Crossing in Indianapolis. There is a somewhat interesting color-changing mood lighting wall in their restaurant at Keystone at the Crossing that causes some odd changes in hue in my pictures […]
Houlihan’s Restaurant and Bar has many locations, including two in central Indiana. I ate at the Houlihan’s in northeastern Indianapolis’ popular Castleton Square Mall (just to clarify, its attached to the outside of the mall but is essentially its own building and is not a part of the food court in the mall or anything […]
Giorgio’s Pizza opened in 1990 and is just east of Monument Circle in downtown Indianapolis. It was neat to see Giorgio himself still working there, although the staff wasn’t very friendly overall. In addition to salads, pasta, and subs, Giorgio’s offers both Sicilian thick crust pizza and Neopolitan thin crust pizza (basically New York-style) by the […]
The fact that I visited a Chuck E. Cheese’s restaurant with other grown men should help show that I will leave no stone unturned in my search for the best pizza. While it probably won’t be winning any awards soon, their pizza was pretty decent and was certainly better than I expected. It had a fairly […]
