The ambiance is beautiful and nice, and the bartenders are very skilled in making cocktails. The cocktail menu is very impressive, and their selection of whiskey is phenomenal. I ordered an old fashioned with bullit rye whiskey, and it was terrific. We could also order food from Wolfie's Grill, so I ordered the hot honey pepperoni pizza. It was a wonderful pizza. The highlight of our experience was hanging out on the deck watching the view of the Geist Reservoir on a beautiful day. The Broken Barrel -Geist is a wonderful lounge to have a drink and food and enjoy the scenery of the Geist Reservoir. It is the perfect hang out spot in Geist. Everyone should come check it out!

Situated inside Hotel Nickel Plate in Fishers, the restaurant was right there off the main entrance. The buffet set up was easy to understand and navigate. The food was so so good! The buffet had a variety of breakfast and lunch options as well as a build your own omelette station! The only thing I did not like as much was the chicken, it was a bit on the drier side but everything else was good. My favorite was the salmon topped with crab cakes, the bananas foster French toast, and the omelette I made. Teresa was AMAZING! Not only did she go out of her way to get us the type of coffee we wanted, she checked on us frequently and always made sure we were good!

It was filet and two sides. She meant filet mignon. It was quite possibly the most flavorful and most melting your piece of meat I've ever had in my life. I also asked about the side and she said they were all delicious. I went with the au gratin potatoes and the fried green beans. The fried green beans were spectacular. I shared a few with my date. He agreed they were original. We think they are breaded like okra with panko mixed in the batter. Not sure, but I'll definitely order them again next time. This was a Tuesday night. Lots of tvs on the wall if you're looking for a game or show to watch. I guess they have a live band some nights. Not sure of the details. I could eat here several times a week. The special for 2 was less than $40.

I was looking forward to it, as this has been on my list of places to go, and we haven't been here before. There were supposed to be 10 of us be we ended up being 8 this night. We had reservations, and had the lovely little private room in the back. (The whole restaurant seems just to seat about 20 or so.) Decor is fun & a nod to all things Britsh. We had 7 scotch eggs for the table. They were served cut in half with a mustard hollandaise, and we re scrumptious. Around the table, we had a variety of beers nda cocktails. I asked the server to pair me a white to go with my fish & chips, and asked for anything except Moscato. They sent a sauvignon blanc that was perfect. My friend next to be had a bloody Mary that was definitely Instagram worthy (see pics). The menu is fairly extensive, but most of us ordered either the fish & chops or the steak & Guinness pie (like a shepherd's pie). For pricing, the scotch eggs are $14.95 ea.; the fish & chips was $29, and the steak & Guinness pie was $30, so I would classify this as "upscale pub." Everything was tasty and a #yum #ReviewsByRL

There are a variety of tables, also some comfy corner chairs. You order at the counter then they'll bring food to you. We all got (plain) coffee. There's a small sugar station on the end of the counter, but you have to ask for cream. I also told a staff member none of us had been there before, and asked were there coffee refills (since the rest was specialty coffee drinks) or do we pay? She said we can have one refill if we come up. My friends got gluten free egg/biscuit sandwiches. The hubs got a crepe with strawberries, bananas and more in it. I ordered the Galette Bretonne - which is described as "a savory light Buckwheat crepe with City ham, Gruyere cheese, with sunny side up egg" and also comes with a side salad. Our food came fairly quickly. The crepe was visually pretty. The biscuit sandwiches looked like they had nice fluffy biscuits (and, gluten free!) - but they were on the small side (smaller than an egg mcmuffin). My galette looked nice but not like the photo (see pics of mine & one from their web) - and the egg inside was well done, definitely not sunny side up or even medium. I don't mind harder cooked eggs, but the whole effect was very dry, so I went to the counter to ask for some syrup. The server told me that he would have to charge me for it. I said fine, yes please, because my dish is so dry it's unedible without it. So he went back in the kitchen and did bring me out a small side dish of syrup (see also pic of that, for size). I had my credit card ready, but he said "this one's on me." I thanked him and sat down to eat. ... and yes, that syrup was just the trick to make the dish delicious! So this is the thing that makes a whole experience "meh" as opposed to "really nice": Between me & my hubs, our food and plain coffees were $42. (My friends paid separately for theirs.) For that price and just counter service, if a guest asks for a small side of syrup for the food, there should not be a side charge. I think the server who gave it to me realized that (but I would have paid it anyway because the meal was just too dry without it) ... But here's the thing - there was another staff member at the counter when my server gave me that little side of syrup. She heard him say "no charge this time," and her expression absolutely changed, and she looked mad that he did not charge me, and like she was about to say something (but didn't). Guess what? I absolutely saw that. And I totally feel like she was not only mad, but also that he might get reprimanded for it. (Might I add, we were also there when it was NOT busy at all, so there was nothing about the atmosphere that was rushed or hectic - although that souldn't matter, either.) And yes, of course when I went back to the table, I relayed that story to my other 3 companions. A little (little!) customer service goes a long way. And also is easily a deciding factor of whether or not a place gets a revisit. There are so many other places to try. #ReviewsByRL

The main floor dining like a lunch vibe, but it turned out to be a cozy choice. For appetizers, we started with the cornbread after our focaccia was unfortunately not the best. Seemed to be over-proofed. The cornbread was absolutely phenomenal and a must-have! A special shoutout to our waitress, Arya, who noticed our disappointment with the focaccia and generously brought us the cornbread on the house. That kind of service is truly memorable! I also had the beets and peaches salad, which was refreshing but a tad overdressed. Still, I couldn't resist finishing the entire dish. For my main course, I ordered the lasagna, and I can confidently say it was one of the best I've ever had. It wasn't overloaded with cheese and instead complemented by mushrooms and pesto, and surprisingly light on the stomach. My husband chose the filet and rated it an 8/10, saying he thoroughly enjoyed it. We were so full by the end that we skipped dessert. The decor of the restaurant is beautiful, and the staff was incredibly attentive throughout our meal. The only downside was the atmosphere; coming from Chicago, we expected a more bustling vibe on a Thursday night. It seems Indianapolis is a bit quieter during the week. Overall, we had a delightful dining experience, and hats off to Arya for her exceptional service!

We had seen people review this place for years but had just never made it to this cute little spot on the east side! We walked in and were quickly greeted and sat. After being sat our friendly waitress came over and recommended some top picks! After some talking we decided to order the rib meal with potato salad and baked beans. Wife ordered the chicken and red velvet waffles with sides of creamed corn and Mac and cheese. Let's start with our top / best of the meal: 1.Fried Chicken was Amazing!! Amazing breading. 2. Creamed corn was the best side hands down followed with a close second of the Mac and cheese. Now the not so good: 1. The ribs. They were very chewy and gross. I didn't wanna send them back because they were still edible but wouldn't ever get them again. 2. Baked beans tasted like canned baked beans. Overall we left with a good feeling and will be back. Especially with the super friendly service! Next time we just won't get the ribs haha!
