    Breaded tenderloin, thick and juicy
    Jim J.

    It was a beautiful day so the wife and I took the back roads to Fontanet Tavern. The place did not look like much on the outside, but once you walked through the doors, we were warmly greeted. The service was very friendly and quick heck we didn't know anybody in there, but we ended up talking to quite a few very nice folks. We had the breaded tenderloin and cheese fries. We split the tenderloin and my wife said it's quite possibly the best one she had ever eaten. I have to agree. Cheese, fries had bacon, lots of cheese, sour cream, and jalapeños they were delicious. This was way too much food for the two of us. The portion of tenderloin she left left behind on her plate was bigger than most restaurants serve. Did I mention they had ice cold beer on tap at a very reasonable price. I wish it were closer because I would definitely make this my watering hole, by the way, they only take cash.

    Reunion of old friends...

    I grew up in nearby Terre Haute, Indiana, and had heard of the new ownership and great food at the Fontanet Tavern for a while. I finally had an opportunity, on a return home, to meet some old friends, drink a few beers and enjoy some outstanding food. The place is very welcoming, the staff friendly, and the food was delicious. Can't wait to go back!!!

    Some of the best food I've ever had! Grilled tenderloin is absolutely amazing! Their Bloody Mary's are a meal all by their self.

Not only were they attentive to the little diva dog the food was really good! Husband had a club sandwich and I had the buffalo wrap. Our diva " Beans " had hamburger and dog food ! One girl ran the show out front. She ended up with 4 tables when we walked in. She was bartender, server and everything else in between! What an excellent employee! Owner if u see this give her a bonus she deserves it!!!! We will definitely go back when we are I. Town again next year! Forgot to mention the tatter tots were crispy and really good too!

    My mom and I usually travel with our dogs so we're always looking for pup-friendly spots and were…read moreexcited today to come across Tree House (previously 7th & Elm) and try somewhere new. Not only are dogs allowed to dine inside, but they offer water bowls AND a good doggie dining menu! This is especially great when the weather is cold (or too warm!) There were no complaints from my pup as she downed her 'Lucky' meal. Our waiter, John, mentioned that all of the doggie dining menu options were actually named after the owners current dogs! Cute touch! Service was warm and attentive (thanks John!) and they were incredibly accommodating on our food substitutions since I don't eat meat. I was also excited to see that they had a good sized menu with a variety of options-- sandwiches, burgers, salads, appetizers, hot dogs, and desserts. I wouldn't say it's a full 'dinner' restaurant, but great tasting, fresh, AND flavorful meatless options which are great for vegans/vegetarians. They had dedicated parking, patio area, an upstairs (I'm sure is amazing in the summer!) and clean restrooms. I even noticed signage in the women's restroom that encouraged safety for 'Angel shots' in case anyone felt unsafe and needed to communicate safely with the bartender for a ride home or the police! They also have live events, music, and great drink specials. It's right on Indiana State University campus so it could be missed, but don't overlook this gem! -- 5/5 from this Pup Mom

    I'm so glad I looked at Yelp reviews for restaurants in Terre Haute…read more This one is a little on the outskirts. The parking is right beside the building, which is nice. The building is absolutely stunning. From the mural along the side with some Indiana favorites to the very tasteful woodwork inside. All four of us thought our food was really good. How often does that happen? The newest menu item was the Salisbury steak. Might be the best I've ever had. There is a little kick to it. Nothing that little water doesn't take care of. haha when I mentioned the cake to the waitress, she said it's probably the goat cheese and the mashed potatoes. I never knew a goat cheese being spiced. But, hey, I really enjoyed it! If I lived in this area, I would frequent it a lot.

    Had another wonderful meal and cocktail at The Terminal Public House. I ordered the cotton candy…read moremartini. The drink was a gorgeous blue. I was very surprised it wasn't overly sweet. I expected it to taste just like candy but it was surprisingly light. For dinner I ordered the chicken parmesan . It came with large pieces of breaded chicken. It also had a very large portion of spaghetti. Everything was cooked well and the marinara sauce had wonderful flavor. I am always impressed by the large portions. I also think the prices are reasonable for the amount of food you get. This is definitely my favorite restaurant to visit when I am in Terre Haute.
