Hello, I had your lasagna. I do not think your people know how to make lasagna. I was sitting down…read more Someone came to my table and said "can I offer you lasagna." I said "why not." I thought, what's the harm. It's Tuesday. I'm off work. I'll try your lasagna sure. The lasagna was so cold. "Who made this cold lasagna?" I wanted to ask. But no one came back to check. I brought the lasagna home. I warmed it up myself. Not that bad, which is why I give it two stars. If it had been warm the first go I might give it three or maybe four. Five star lasagna isn't something you come across everyday. So don't be upset that I wouldn't consider it. The service was also not good. No menu. No silverware. Just one man who is offering lasagna. On the plus side, this place had a lot of parking and was warm enough inside. Unlike the lagasma. I will keep looking for a Tuesday lunch spot. Update: management has informed me this is not an Italy restaurant. They do not know lasanga man. I will give it 5 stars.

Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre is the largest of more than 70 community theatres in Indiana and one…read moreof the ten largest of over 7000 active community theatres in the U.S. It is also considered the nation's longest continuously active community theatre. In operation since 1915, Civic Theatre offers 90 performances and 500 opportunities to participate onstage or behind-the-scenes in a professional theatre setting annually. Since its beginning, Civic has had five different homes. In 1915, it started at the Herron Art Institute before moving to the 240-seat Hedback Community Theatre in 1924. In 1973, Civic moved to the 645-seat Showalter Pavilion at IMA before relocating in 2004 to a 490-seat theatre at Marian University. Finally, Civic moved into the Tarkington at the Center for the Performing Arts in 2011. The current theatre has 513 seats. Mainstage productions include everything from musicals to comedies to dramas with an average of 30,000 patrons annually. Education has also always been a strong component of Civic programming with education and outreach programs reaching over 20,000 people each year through classes, workshops, and educational performances for all age groups from toddlers through older adults. As someone who believes strongly in inclusive theatre (I was a drama minor in college myself), Civic does one of the better jobs in Central Indiana of addressing accessibility issues. They are known to offer sensory friendly performances, have offered audio-described performances (and have large print programs), and also offer accessible parking, accessible entrances, and accessible seating that can be reserved. They also offer shows with ASL and Assisted Listening. For those with disabilities, I recommend contacting Civic for more detailed information. I've seldom attended a show here without seeing other wheelchairs or individuals with intellectual/developmental disabilities. I've never been on-stage at Civic, but I have worked behind the scene in years past. Most recently, I've attended as both an audience member and media member. My experience has been that Civic leans toward more well known, fairly mainstream productions. For example, the 2022-23 season includes The Diary of Anne Frank, The Cat in the Hat, The Sound of Music, and Murder on the Orient Express. Jr. Civic is an amazing opportunity for the kids to get involved. Civic Theatre is definitely one of Central Indiana's longtime stage gems. With an outstanding group of professionals and volunteers, Civic offers consistently high quality performances and a great experience for theatergoers. Located in Carmel, it's an easy drive and a great entertainment in a beautiful setting.

If you're like me, you do your research when looking for child care for your baby and I hope that I can add some value to that searching mama or dad! We recently moved from Chicago and had an amazing school for our little boy. It was one of the harder parts of leaving, knowing we had to take him away from there. Fortunately enough, we found Ms Amy and Ms Emily at Goddard of Carmel ( Westfield). We looked into a lot of schools in the area and felt this was the most like his other, but also felt the warmth when you enter the school. The school is full of vibrant colors and children's artwork, and all the staff says hello as you walk the halls. We've now been there for 2.5 months and I still feel like we've made the right choice. My son loves his teacher, Ms Sara, and she has truly made his transition so smooth. If there is ever a day that he just needs a little extra love, she's the first to pick him up and snuggle or chat with him. I can tell by her interactions, hellos and goodbyes, with the children, that she truly cares for them. Of course, there is the curriculum side as well that you're likely interested in, if you're looking into a Goddard. My son has learned so much in the short 2.5 months he's been there. He has a new song, new words, putting sentences together, asking real questions, almost every day! They have so much outside play as well! I'm slightly concerned about the winter and how much outside time they will get to burn off the energy, his past school had an indoor gym- I think we'll miss that part a little! We really do love the school and my son does too! I'd absolutely recommend it and plan to update this in the future when/if we should ever leave!

When we ever had questions or concerns we were met with a happy director and assistant director who would bend over backwards to be sure our needs were met. We had the same teacher the whole time. Ms. Megan. She is great!!!

I used to go more when I was school-age, but I recently bought my one year old for a trial class. It was a good time and I enjoyed meeting some new parent friends and having a place for my baby to run around. It was a little more hands-off and a little less catered towards babies than other classes around town that we've tried and enjoyed. The teacher was super nice, but she kept looking at her phone to turn the music on/off, check what was next for the lesson, etc. I really try to not have my phone out around my baby and so I'd appreciate if they could just use a sound system or write notes on a post-it or something so that phones are out during a paid-for class experience. I understand that it's not usually a big deal but think that would help elevate the class. There was a lot of time to run around on our own, but my baby is too little for the bars, can't jump on the mats, and then there were only a few things to crawl on, so it could use with a few extra engaging activities too for younger ages. They did have a 'back hand spring' lesson that was cute/funny and my baby enjoyed rolling over the foam cylinder - LOL. So proud of that little nugget. The man at the front desk was nice and I liked that they had toys in the lobby for kids to play with after class. I also noticed a private room for parties and saw that they offer summer camps too. I can see my elementary-school age self loving coming here as a nice intro into gymnastics and would be happy to try it again when our son is a little older.
