    Chicken Kabab
    Jeremiah C.

    Best Chicken Kabos on the north side of Indy. Big fan of their carry out service and the way they package everything. Outstanding service and a place I find myself getting frequently. Garlic butter Naan bread is an absolute must!

    Chicken Tikka Masala

    Standard run of the mill Indian In America within a predominantly white neighborhood kinda restaurant. Decent curry, nothing deeply traditional or unique. Good stop for a quick lunch. Note they close at 2:30, as is common with Indian restauranteering - I was shewed away at 2:10, so don't plan on staying until the 230 closing :\

    This is my go to for those Indian food cravings I get!! First off, it comes off as just a simple fast food environment. There isn't very many decorations or Bollywood music playing (in fact, both TVs had ESPN on). However, it's the food that's the star of the show and that's what brings us back time and time again. On this trip we ordered Samosas, Chicken Korma and Butter chicken. Wow, the sauce for both dishes were incredible. We dined in and our food came out in "to go" containers. Not a big deal, if I'm a betting man they're probably going for the "less is more" approach. Again, the flavor is just incredible. If you're passing through Carmel and want some delicious and satisfying Indian food, they got you!!

    Chicken Kabab. Amazing flavor.

    We have been coming here for years. It's always so FRESH. The secret ingredient tea is amazing. The owner says they will hopefully be selling it stores soon. . I will be the first in line to buy it. All the food is made to order! Naan is delicious. You can dine in, carry out or they do events. Check it out.

    Chicken Tikka Masala and garlic naan
    Adam G.

    The only thing generic about this place is the name! I decided to try it for dinner based on all the good reviews and boy am I glad I did. The menu is pretty extensive, but I went with the classic Chicken Tikka Masala, which is pretty much my go-to at any Indian restaurant. It took about 10 minutes to prepare, and in that time frame there were probably 5-6 people that came in to pick up to-go orders. Needless to say, this is a popular place! The food was delicious and just the right amount. The garlic naan was huge, but also just as good. If you're craving some ethnic food on the north side of Indy, definitely give this place a shot!

    I have denied myself the deliciousness that is Fresh Indian Grill for four months now. It's so conveniently located, that I was afraid I'd go everyday. Yesterday was the day I finally caved only to find that my suspicion was correct. I'll be back. I came in to pick up a carryout lunch. I chose the chicken saag with a medium level spice and made it a combo meal with garlic naan and a drink. The chicken in the saag tasted like fresh grilled, juicy chicken. The saag was wonderfully cooked and seasoned. The rice was perfectly cooked and the portion was a good size. The medium spice seemed just right for me. I like a little spice but not too much. I forgot to ask them to save the cilantro, but I picked off the garnish from the saag easily and what was on the naan didn't seem to bother me. I think the iced tea was a chai tea. It wasn't your typical iced tea and I really enjoyed it. It took about 10 minutes to get my food after ordering.

    I'm OBSESSED with here! Seriously, you have to go. I've been here multiple times throughout the years and it's some of the best service and Indian food in Indianapolis. You walk up to order and the menus are easy to ready (and separated by signature and vegetarian options- which i found helpful). I've had the chicken tikka masala and the aloo gobhi. Both have been great! I totally recommend making it a meal and getting the combo. The naan will blow you away! So you get a pretty large portion of whatever you order and four pieces of naan- amazing deal. Amazing taste. I love it. More importantly, the service is awesome. There's always someone asking how your meal is or if there's anything they can get for you. I really appreciate it. Usually places where you order at a register and sit down don't have the best service, but fresh India goes above and beyond!

    Incredible butter chicken. Get it!
    Bridget K.

    I didn't see butter chicken (my favorite) on the menu, but when I asked, the man behind the counter told me they made it. I was thrilled and got it as a combo meal (rice, naan and a drink) for $17. That's pricey, but it's a good portion of food and could probably be shared between two people. On this particular day I was super hungry and ate the whole thing by myself. The butter chicken was amazing! The sauce was smooth and rich in flavor. The chicken was tender and cooked to perfection. The Naan was pillowy and a little chewy. The rice was impeccably seasoned and tasted great on it's own. Combining it was a little flavor dance party in my mouth. I couldn't get enough. Absolutely wonderful food with quick and friendly service!

    Chicken Curry Garlic Naan
    Allison D.

    This was my first time eating at an Indian restaurant! It was soooo good. I got chicken curry mild and my bf got chicken tikki masala medium. I really loved what I got, but my bfs food was actually my fav lol. I'm definitely going to get the chicken tikki masala with medium spice next time. We came in an hour before they closed and they were so nice and food was fresh! Me and my bf always need a place that has later hours so we really appreciated how nice they were about us eating there and how good the food is. Price was very reasonable too!

    Garlic naan
    Nicole S.

    Yeah, this'll do in a pinch! I'll edit my review because Fresh Indian Grill seems to have stepped up their game a bit. I was craving some chicken tikka masala during a time when the local sit-down Indian restaurant wasn't open. But lo and behold, after some searching on Yelp, I found this fast-casual joint. Fresh Indian Grill came to my rescue by being open and having some bomb chicken tikka. It satisfied my craving and I was able to go on with my day. The meals come with a side of basmati rice. I didn't know that and ordered an additional side of rice, so I ended up with too much rice. Don't make my mistake! Just order the meal and you'll get rice. Unless you want a lot of rice -- in that case, you do you. I also got an order of naan, which was delicious and soft and pillowy. I never actually stepped into this restaurant because I got my order through Door Dash. So if you're looking for delivery Indian food, try this place -- they use Door Dash to deliver.

    Left: Chicken Tikka Masala
 Right: Samosa w/ Dipping Sauce
    Ethan Z.

    This was my first time visiting Fresh Indian Grill, and it for sure will not be my last! I opted for a carryout order and it was seamless and very quick - about 15 minutes from order to pickup! Also, the menu is priced very fairly. I got the Chicken Tikka Masala and Samosa. The Masala was very good and I would highly recommend it, it was fresh, came in a great to-go container and was very hot. The samosa was also really good, I had never had this kind of appetizer but I will definitely be getting it again! Also, the dipping sauce for the samosa was awesome! I would highly recommend this place and I can't wait to go back and try other menu options!

    I have been coming here for years! They have the absolute best chicken tikka masala paired with the garlic naan. I can't get it without their sweet tea which tastes like sweet tea with cinnamon. . . Sounds weird but it's GOOD! I recently tried to step out of my usual and got a couple new (to me) dishes to try. I honestly didn't love them but it's just due to my personal preference. It wasn't dry & didn't lack taste . . I just don't prefer them over my usual. I will say the lamb in the biryani was very tender & didn't have much bone to pick out which is a plus. Sometimes they post coupons on their FB page so that's worth a look before you go!

    Paneer massala was tasty. The Roti and Naan was extra

The BBQ poutine fries were so big on the tray that I felt a little ostentatious as I was carrying the tray back to my table. It felt like all of the food on my tray surely should have been going to a family. But no: All of these BBQ poutine fries were just for one gluttonous person (me). Every so often, I would get an enormous fry that was way bigger than the others. It was more like a steak fry! It was like a little baked potato. It was nice to have that variety in the appetizer (which I was treating like an entree because, again, I was eating this giant appetizer by myself without shame). One of my children opted to get the kids meal here, which is the mac & cheese with a side (he chose fries). The mac & cheese is cavatappi pasta, so it's that pleasing curly texture that kids love (my kid loved it). The Den by FoxGardin is located inside Sun King Food Hall, and it's one of the food options you have here. If you are looking for pub food, comfort food, or just plain good food, you can't go wrong with this place.

That's actually why I feel compelled to say something - during my visit, I saw an adult man berate a young hostess over the wait time. No one deserves to be spoken to that way, especially not a teenager doing their job in a high-pressure environment. Unfortunately, I've seen this kind of behavior more than once at restaurants, and it needs to stop. If you're frustrated, taking it out on staff is not ok. A little patience and basic respect go a long way. As someone who used to work as a hostess, I know how stressful those moments can be, and I really appreciated how gracefully the team at Juniper on Main handled everything. They deserve a lot of credit. Highly recommend this place, not just for the great food, but for the hardworking, kind staff who keep things running. If you are someone that can't control your temper and you take it out on unsuspecting people, you should order in. Your frustration doesn't give you the right to behave so awful.

We had the crab cakes and crab & artichoke dip for apps and our lunch entrees were the fried catfish sandwich with fries and the filet with mashed potatoes and collard greens. For bevvies, we tried their rosé and red zeppelin English ale. All of it, every bit and bite, was 10/10. Food breakdown: - Crab cakes: succulent lump crap meat within a lightly battered and flash fried coating. They come on a bed of arugula with a light dressing and dipping sauce for the cakes. Super yummy! - Crab & artichoke dip: ooey gooey deliciousness, perfect balance of cheese sauce too. You don't have to search for the crab or artichokes. And the fried naan chips were sliced long and thin, and could've been called naan fries actually. Perfect companion for the dip. - Fried catfish sammich: the piece of fish was huge and the batter was good. It came on Texas toast with fixins and tartar sauce. Won't lie, the only thing I wanted for was some hot sauce. That's a me problem... just gotta have hot sauce when I eat fried fish but I didn't ask for any while I was there (they may offer it) and still very much enjoyed the sandwich. - Filet: it was great... hubby got it medium and it arrived perfectly cooked. The Demi glaze sauce was so good and so were the sides. Their collard greens are seasoned up! I said does my auntie work here?! This cuisine is so comfortingly southern and didn't disappoint. Shoutout to our friendly and helpful server, Dan... our food and drinks came out quickly and so did our to-go box. His service was truly top notch. We have been living in Carmel for 5 years and this is one of the best restaurants here. If you're on the fence about trying this place, jump off and make a reservation. You won't regret it.

I loved the dark, swamp-themed mural painted on the wall, the banging playlist and the inclusion of a bar in the back as well as the ice cream counter. The staff were jovial, accommodating and extremely pleasant to interact with. My husband and I both ordered 1/2 slab rib combos. My 1/2 was much larger/meatier than his, so we swapped. The combo comes with two sides. We both ordered the baked beans, he had the coleslaw, and I had the macaroni and cheese. Categorically, everything was ok...good even, but not great or amazing, which were the words that we'd heard from others. Perhaps we didn't order the right items. The ribs were beautiful with the perfect smoke ring. They were seasoned well, but they were not as tender as I would've liked. I like my ribs to be fall-off-the-bone tender, but I know that isn't necessarily the industry standard. The sauce options were mild and hot, but I could barely distinguish the difference between the two. Hot is not spicy. The macaroni and cheese could've used some salt and pepper, but the baked beans were spot-on. The beans were on the sweet side, which is just how I like them. The platter is also served with soft, buttery, rolls with garlic.
