    My team attended an expo at the convention center close by and wanted to try something new for lunch! Dick's is barely a block away from the center and was an interesting choice to say the least! We soon found out that it was the kind of restaurant where staff are a bit rude for funsies, at first it surprises you but you get use to it - they also had an amazing playlist playing! Our food was actually pretty good and Jada did a great job taking care of us!

    Fun place to go. I'd drop in for a drink and a few laughs. The food was really average. Prices were $$$ for $ or $$ quality. Waitress did a good job considering she had 3 or 4 tables sat in her section at the same time. Music was too loud. I know the idea is to be annoying. But it was so loud you couldn't hear the insults you go there for. All in all, come in for a drink and a little fun. Go elsewhere for the food though. Not worth the prices they charge.

    Fun bar atmosphere. Wait staff are intentionally rude with you, it's a lot of fun. Food isn't special but pretty good.

    Fried pickles. Delicious.

    This was our first visit to Dick's. They are known for being somewhat rude and crass to customers but if you don't want the full Monty, you can request and they can do "nice". The menu and decor are a bit suggestive, so you may want to leave the kids or those easily offended at home. Dick's has a great happy hour (M-F) which they call Crappy Hour. We were the only people at the bar. Embere, the bartender, was great, perfectly rude and efficient. I enjoyed a couple Margaritas. The fried pickle apps are wonderful, with a light corn meal breading. They have a full menu serving traditional American fare. Prices are reasonable. If you enjoy sophomoric humor, this is a great option for a few drinks and some good food.

    I have tried this place out in Vegas and loved the experience but wasn't a fan of the food the first time! 1. The drinks were great, me and my friend both enjoyed the taste as well as size for what you pay. Typical tourist prices for downtown Indy. We only ordered appetizers m, hot wings & fries. The fries were great and crispy cooked to perfection. Now I had a love/hate thing with the wings. They were nice sized and juicy however they had no flavor at all. Only reason I had to give them an ok rating. 2. The experience of course is always fun but I think sitting at the bar does not get as much fun as the dining area. We actually chose the bar since it wasn't that crowded thinking it would be even more fun. Naw. Often times caught ourself looking at entertainment on the other side. It was my friends first time and it didn't live up to the hype of when I went the first time. Overall not bad but I'd be ok with not visiting again.

    Good for tourists that are looking for a nice laugh. Don't recommend if you are sensitive or easily get offended... The wait was long, around 1.5 hours. I recommend putting your name down then walking across the street to the mall for a bit. Many were told the waitlist was "full". Why is there a need to wait to get on the waitlist then wait again to get the actual table? And when Yelp said the table was ready, we still had to wait a while before the restaurant actually had it ready. I hope they coordinate the restaurant and app better so others don't have to waste time. I ordered the BBQ combo. Decent but a bit overpriced. The ribs were a little dry but I liked the flavor of the pulled pork and wings. The vibe of the whole place was very chaotic. Lots of loud music and dancing. Our waitress played her role perfectly. She was hilariously rude but still fast at getting our orders out!

    You have to be super open minded when coming to this restaurant. Waitress acts like the name of the restaurant but they are still nice. Food was your average sports bar food. I had a lemon drop shot, that was good and you got to keep the shot glass. For dinner I had a bacon cheese burger, part of the burger did come back a little burnt. Didn't finish it because I don't like the burnt taste on my food. The inside of the restaurant was decorated with little adult sayings, bras hanging for the wall, and people names written on the walls. Your waitress made hats for everyone in the group, even the kids with funny little things on them. Larger tables also played games.

    Ambiance bursting with chaotic charm, scrumptious dishes that are deliciously messy, and an eclectic décor that keeps you guessing! The service? Let's just say it's one wild ride, but that's all part of the fun! They write those message on the hats, mine was PG-13 I've been eagerly awaiting my chance to experience this place, and it did not disappoint! I had an absolute blast! You have to go.

    Fun experience. Probably would have been more fun if there were more people. We went early before a concert. The server was good, and made it fun for us. Food was great, but it's way overpriced. The ribs were great, and the green beans are to die for. Their beer taps were out, so no selections there, just bottles. They were considerate to ask the age of my daughter and family dynamic before we got started. I've always wanted to visit a Dick's location, and glad we did. My 17 year old daughter got a kick out of it!

    Our server was funny and awesome at what she does.

    Insults & service this was interesting. Food was average, nothing too exciting. Peel & eat shrimp were over cooked. The appetizer platter looked good. I got chicken tacos. Seemed ok average. Fried pickles were cut too thick. We enjoyed our server, we soon joined in with her jokes & laughter. The place seems to be a spin off of Cheers with a mix of Texas Roadhouse.

    Food was great, came out Hot and so good! Service was hands down the best! And ambiance kept us laughing and interacting. I've been to many Dick's Last Resort and this one was hands down by far the best I've been to! Thanks so much for the hospitality!

    The food was amazing, I ordered the Chicky Fried Chicky and it was super juicy and cooked to perfection. The service was rude, but that's the aesthetic and my server broke character throughout and showed kindness. I definitely recommend if you're in the area.

The communication throughout the process was great and it made the planning very easy from start to finish. They offered several good menu options and were also very flexible (we wanted to omit veal from a dish). The food was well prepared, and the guests commented on how good everything was, including the excellent service. The ambiance was perfect for our event and we're so happy that we chose The Fountain Room for this special occasion.

    Night 2 in Indianapolis took us to The Fountain Room, and honestly, I'd happily go back…read more We had reservations and chose to sit in the bar area, which turned out to be a great call. The restaurant itself is really well designed--traditional meets modern in a way that somehow works. Looking at the tiles and wall coverings individually, you might think, "Oh...interesting choice." But put it all together and it's actually quite harmonious. Design math, apparently. We started with drinks. I had one of their daiquiris, and it was perfect. I'm a whiskey girl, but after some enthusiastic pours the night before, the thought of more whiskey was a hard no. The daiquiri was light, refreshing, and tasty--sweet, but not obnoxiously sweet. And most importantly, it tasted absolutely nothing like whiskey. Mission accomplished. For starters, we ordered the Brie brûlée. I was a fan. The husband was...not. Here's how you do it: take a wedge of their freshly baked toasted bread, slather on some strawberry jam, dip that glorious situation into the pistachio-dusted Brie brûlée, eat, and repeat. And repeat. And repeat. I eventually had to intervene with myself. I ordered the beet and peach salad without the beets because, well...gross. The peaches could have been a little riper, but the salad was still really good. Nicely dressed, with candied pumpkin seeds and some kind of soft herbed cheese that pulled everything together. Very tasty, and thankfully no beets were harmed in the making of my dinner. Then came the meatballs. I have never in my life had meatballs that tasted like these, and I mean that as a very good thing. They were herbaceous, tender, with just a hint of sweetness. And somehow, they kept getting better as we ate them. Especially the ones at the bottom, sitting in all that sauce. DO NOT PASS THESE UP. The husband ordered the prime rib, which he rated an 8 out of 10. High praise, friends. This man does not hand out 8s like participation trophies. Service was great, the food was genuinely enjoyable, and the whole experience was exactly what we wanted on our last night in Indy.

    One of my favorite memories from The District Tap actually started with a shirt…read more We were sitting on the patio overlooking Georgia Street on a Fever game day when a couple walked by wearing one of the coolest Caitlin Clark shirts we'd ever seen. We complimented it, asked where they found it, and before we knew it, we were chatting with a wonderful couple who had traveled all the way from overseas just to watch Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever play that night. Moments like that are one of the reasons I love Indianapolis on game days. The patio was the perfect place to soak it all in. Fever fans filled the sidewalks, kids proudly carried homemade signs, and there was an excitement in the air that only comes from a city rallying behind its team. We could have people-watched for hours. Our waitress was exactly what every server should strive to be. Friendly, relaxed, and genuinely fun to talk to, she somehow mastered the art of appearing right before we found ourselves looking around for her. We never felt rushed, but we also never waited for anything. The food held up its end of the bargain too. The fried mozzarella disappeared embarrassingly fast and earned a solid 9.3 on my unofficial stretch meter. Crispy on the outside, perfectly gooey inside, with a marinara sauce that was every bit as good as the cheese itself. The chef salad was fresh, generously loaded with toppings, and easily big enough for a meal. I honestly couldn't tell you what beer I ordered... Because what I remember most is the experience. Sharing appetizers on a sunny patio, meeting fellow basketball fans from halfway around the world, and watching Indianapolis come alive before tipoff. It reminded me that sports have a funny way of turning complete strangers into friends. We'll absolutely be back the next time we're headed to Gainbridge.

Our server was friendly and responsive to one member of our group (male) but repeatedly didn't acknowledge another (female). This wasn't a one-time thing, it happened several times over the course of our visit, and it came across as dismissive. As for the drinks: beer prices were nice and cheap, but the margarita was on the expensive side and not really worth it. The place seems geared toward bigger dinner crowds, which may be why a two-person drinks-only table didn't get much attention, but being essentially ignored isn't a great look either way. We wouldn't return. 2/5.

I always order the Cuban when a new restaurant has one on the menu, and Big Lug's did not disappoint. It was juicy, flavorful, and one of the better Cubans I've had in a while. On my second visit, I went with the blackened cod tacos on corn tortillas (you can also get flour tortillas, and they offer shrimp and breaded fish options). They were fresh, perfectly seasoned, and absolutely delicious. Both visits I ordered the spicy garlic cauliflower, and it was outstanding. The homemade blue cheese dressing took it to another level. If you're on the fence about ordering it, don't be--it was one of my favorite things on the menu. The outdoor walk-up bar creates a really cool, laid-back atmosphere, making it a great place to relax whether you're meeting friends or just enjoying a meal by yourself. The staff was friendly, the service was excellent, and both meals came out quickly. I don't usually eat at the same restaurant twice on a trip, but Big Lug earned it. If I'm back in the area, it'll definitely be on my list again.

    Big Lug is a very cool spot right off the Monon, and even better if you have a pooch with you!…read moreUnfortunately, our experience with the service was pretty disappointing. We sat right in the middle of the main thoroughfare and were completely ignored for at least 15 minutes before we finally flagged someone down. The guy, "H," apologized and said, "Oh, my bad--it's all good." We figured, no big deal, let's move on. We ordered pretty simple food, apps and were then going to put in some entrees once apps arrived. We asked for waters and a water bowl for our pups. He brought two waters--with no straws--and no dog bowl. We assumed he was going to grab the bowl, so we waited... and waited. Then I noticed him at the end of the bar leaning against some boxes, texting. So I finally got up, interrupted him and asked for the dog bowl. His response, "oh my bad." Our appetizers came out, and naturally, we asked for silverware. A few minutes later, I spotted "H" in the corner on his phone again. At that point I was thinking, seriously?! So I got up again, interrupted "H's" text convo and asked for silverware. His response again was, "Oh, my bad." I didn't respond to him I just turned around and went back to my seat. Honestly, the whole experience started feeling more like a self-serve restaurant than table service. It's a chill spot and we weren't being needy whatsoever. We never asked for any refills- we were merely asking for the basics. We wanted to order more food, but by that point we were pretty turned off and decided to just get the check. Then came the final straw: my guy had his license and credit card sitting on the table because he hadn't brought his wallet out for our monon trek. When "H" came back with the checkout thing, without question or hesitation - he grabbed the card and swiped it. We didn't even realize what happened until afterward. Maybe that's standard there, but I've never had a server just take my card without asking. Usually you get a "hey do we want to use this card? Or something to confirm. And of course the tip structure is skewed so the min is 20% unless you want to try to figure out to manually enter in 15% (which most ppl don't -incl my guy), so we left 20% and left irritated and still hungry. "H" didn't seem hungover or anything--he just genuinely seemed like he did not not give a shiiiit. We had to get up three separate times to get things we had already requested: the dog bowl, a couple straws, and silverware. (Basics) And a quick note on the 7-Layer Hoss Dip: don't expect seven layers. It comes in a small thick ceramic bowl and was basically beans, guacamole, a tiny bit of corn and some hard cheese on top. Definitely would not recommend it. Way too "beany" and not worth $16 at all. The southwest rolls were decent- very fried tho. Cheesecake Factory's are better ;) The location and dog-friendly atmosphere are great, with the exception of the homeless camp right at their patio entrance, but unfortunately, the service really took away from the experience. Hopefully this was just an off night, because Big Lug has a lot going for it.
