Make the trip before their last day to experience the Ramos gin fizz, smoked whitefish dip, crawfish monica, and every dessert that's offered (seriously, order all of them).

After being recommended, we decided to visit on a Thusday evening. We were immediately greeted and seated as there were only a few other people in the restaurant. Our server, Shannon, was delightful! We decided on the crawfish Monica, the collard greens dish, and the waygu dish! I would go back just for the crawfish! Perfect amount of everything that I will dream about. I have read about different theme nights so we will definitely be back!

My friend invited me out so she chose. Never had been so figured I should go. Very busy place and…read moreglad we got our name in before some guy took over...he was very disoriented and had no idea what was going on. Gladly when it was our turn the young lady that took my name down remembered because he was totally calling out a whole different name, could have been missed had she not been up there or if I wasn't paying attention. Got seated. Our server was very nice and helpful since it was my first time. Chloe did an excellent job by explaining how the boil works and flavoring etc. we ordered lemon drop martinis. Unfortunately they missed the mark. They definitely were not prepared properly which is fine but I guess it's my fault considering it's not known for their drinks. No hard feelings I drank mine. I ordered hush puppies to start...definitely need some more of these! Flavorful and the sauces it came with were delicious. I ended to dipping mine in my boil bag and let me just say that was AMAZING. I ordered the scallops and shrimp and added the boiled eggs for an extra charge of $2.95. Very delicious very tasty and the garlic lemon Cajun mild was a great choice. Everything was cooked exactly right and the seasoning was on point it wasn't overly salty or spicy and yet wasn't even an ounce of bland. I of course took my half home and glad she wrapped it up good so nothing leaked out. Needless to say the bag boil was very good and definitely would go back. As far as ambiance goes it was very busy and lots of people enjoying their food. Lighting was a bit soft but it wasn't bad. (Pics aren't loading, I'll add when internet isn't acting up)

The crab cakes were still cold, the crab was unbelievably dry and cold when we got it, the broccoli and cauliflower was still hard.

The cod and frog legs specifically were heavy on the breading and way over cooked. It is usually cooked to perfection. I also felt the cod was not fresh as the one piece was a discolored gray instead of the flaky white. Quite disappointed. Hope this was just a one off. Too bad the in-laws didn't get to see the high quality we usually see here.

I had such high hopes for this place a seafood market in Indianapolis? Yes please. As someone who…read moregrew up in Florida, I am always on the hunt for anything that scratches that coastal seafood itch, so I was genuinely excited to try it. We ordered the lobster hoagie and hush puppies. Both were... fine. Not bad, but nothing that wowed us or justified the anticipation. The flavors were there in a basic sense, but it all felt a little underwhelming for a spot that's billing itself as a seafood destination. What really got me was the market side of things. The seafood on display just looked sad not fresh, not vibrant, not the kind of stuff that makes you want to throw something in a bag and take it home to cook. I fully understand we're landlocked in Indiana and truly fresh seafood is a challenge, but if that's your entire concept, the product has to be able to hold its own. Left feeling more disappointed than anything. I so wanted to love this place and will be rooting for them to level up but for now, this Florida girl will keep searching.

No matter the occasion it's a nice place to grab a meal with family and friends. The waitstaff is thorough and attentive without smothering you. Everything is made fresh and you can tell. This time around we were celebrating a birthday and the waiter made sure to bring out a candle for them to blow out which was a thoughtful touch. We got the prime rib sandwich, spaghetti and meatballs and burger. Everything was delicious!!! Dessert was also amazing - honeybee (flourless tort cake) and chocolate brûlée (not pictured - ate too fast lol)

Steer clear of this pretentious restaurant. I have never in my life experienced such rudeness by…read morestaff members of a restaurant we were excited to try when visiting from out of town. The hostess set a hostile tone immediately after we walked in excited and happy to eat at a good restaurant. She asked with extreme attitude "Inside or Outside" which we replied respectfully "Outside". She led us outside without a response and started setting the table. When we ATTEMPTED to sit down she then snapped at my girlfriend "Wait till I'm done". After finishing, I thanked her and asked her name (I was going to her manager with this issue right after), she ignored me completely and stormed inside. I approached her directly inside at the hosetess stand and apologized if we'd offended her somehow, and asked what was wrong. Her response: "I'm just doing my job." That's not service... that's arrogance and caught me so off guard I couldn't comprehend where this energy was stemming from. All we did was show up for dinner and we were treated with hatred. My girlfriend went in to address it. Not one staff member asked what happened. No apologies. No attempt to make it right. Just silence and dirty looks. We left without ordering. Management had a chance to fix this and chose not to. That's a failure at every level. Whatever reputation Bluebeard has, this killed it for us. Do yourself a favor and eat somewhere else.

I recently tried Slap's Fish Market and sampled a little bit of everything--lobster roll, burrito,…read morecheesecake, and their lobster deviled eggs--and overall it was a really memorable experience. The service was very helpful deciding what to order. The setting was fun down town indanopolis feel. The lobster roll was definitely the standout. It was packed with fresh, flavorful lobster and had a nice balance of buttery richness without feeling too heavy. You can tell the seafood is high quality, which makes a huge difference. The lobster deviled eggs were super unique and honestly one of my favorite bites. Creamy, slightly tangy, and topped with lobster--it's not something you see everywhere, and they executed it really well. My husband tried the shrimp burrito, which was great for a seafood spot. It was hearty, well-seasoned, and filled generously. It didn't feel like an afterthought on the menu. To finish, the cheesecake was a great choice it was from the cheesecake factory is what the offered for my birthday smooth, rich, and just the right level of sweetness with a strawberry topping to end the meal without being overwhelming. Overall, Slap's Fish Market delivers on both creativity and quality. It's a great spot if you want fresh seafood with a few fun, unexpected twists. I'd definitely come back to try more of the menu.

I had very high hopes coming here after all of the awesome reviews on this place, and I left a…read morelittle bit disappointed, because I personally don't think my experience lived up to the hype. We came in on a Friday night at 6:30 with no reservation, and had to wait ~5 minutes for a table of two. We were sat at a high top at the bar, which we appreciated. Our server greeted us quickly, and checked in a few times throughout the night. Service was average, nothing spectacular but nothing to complain about. I had a hurricane to start off. Packed full of the good stuff, and one was definitely enough for the night. Appropriate price for what you get. This drink is what brought my review from a 2 for the food to a 3 in total. We started off with pork Bao buns. The bun was spongy, but somewhat dry. The pork lacked any sort of flavor, and the sauce on it didn't do much for me. The next part of the meal was the most disappointing for me: the curry chicken wings. Let me tell you- I was excited for these. These lacked any sort of flavor at all, and the only thing saving it was the ranch. The wings had a good crisp, but the sauce was lacking taste. I had the Shoyu ramen for my main. It was a pretty average bowl of ramen, but for the price, I expected more. The pork in it was flavorful, but the chicken in it was odd in my opinion with an unexpected herby flavor. Overall, service was average (but we appreciated getting sat fast), drinks were strong (and saved the meal) and the food was average. Would go if invited by a friend, but probably would not return on my own.

The interior was a bit smaller than I expected, but it made the place feel intimate. I went for lunch - I bet open kitchen's vibe is even better for dinner. Overall I'd go back here.
