The kitchen moved WAY faster than we were eating. Three or four minutes after we got our starters, we got our main course. Another two or three minutes later and the desserts are on our table. Who eats that fast? We weren't halfway through our starters but a bee was hard at work mauling our cheesecake.

Very impressed by our visit here. We came in around 5pm on a Saturday night and the place was busy-…read moreand for good reason. I didn't know it was pirate themed prior to coming, which was interesting. I don't understand it, but I'm sure there is a reasoning. We placed our order at the front quickly, and had our food out fast. We were able to find a table easily. The place wasn't too loud, and felt clean. We had a 1/2 brisket sandwich with coleslaw and rolls, as well as "The captain", which we both greatly enjoyed. The brisket wasn't anything out of the world, but for the price I'm impressed by how much we get. The slaw was great- a mayo based sauce. The rolls had a nice garlic taste. The fries were crispy, and had plenty of toppings. Overall, for the price of barbecue now a days, I'm impressed and will come back. Two barbecue meals, and two canned alcohol beverages for $45, along with good service and fun atmosphere is hard to find these days.

This review is specifically for the Tavern. I just learned recently that they had opened a tavern…read more It has its own entrance. So you don't have to go through the restaurant if you dont want to. Its dark and moody in all the best ways. I was warmly greeted by the bartenders. I took a seat at the actual bar even though they had plenty of seating. I was super impressed with the cocktail list. All the drinks sounded delicious . I asked the bartender for suggestions. I decided to go for the Key Lime martini. Beautiful presentation and it tasted just like a key lime pie. My friend ordered the spicy margarita. It came in a cool, skull glass. Overall, very impressed with the drinks and the service. Will definitely be coming back to try more of their speciality cocktails.

I hate writing this because about a year ago Trax BBQ had some of the best brisket around. Back…read morethen the brisket was moist, flavorful, and you could actually request fatty or lean cuts. The fatty brisket especially was incredible. Tender, juicy, packed with flavor, and honestly didn't even need sauce. This recent visit felt like a completely different restaurant. Apparently you can't request fatty or lean anymore, and the brisket I received was so dry it literally crumbled apart like beef sawdust. There was basically zero fat left on it, which also meant very little flavor. For the first time ever, the sauce wasn't optional... it was rescue equipment. The ribs were okay, but even they weren't what they used to be. They used to have that perfect fall-off-the-bone texture, and now they were just kind of there. Not terrible, just disappointing compared to how good this place once was. I'm not trying to trash Trax because I know how great they can be. That's actually what makes this frustrating. It feels like the brisket went from "Texas smokehouse masterpiece" to "beef jerky with a college degree."

This place is a complete disappointment…read more Been there about 5 times for live music and every time, they are out of something...brisket, mushrooms, the last 2 times they had no diet soda available. There are people in my party who do not drink, and do not drink water at restaurants due to now knowing the quality. It is always hot there, summer or winter. The "patio" is their asphalt parking lot, which is sweltering in the summer, I've tried to go inside to cool off, but the A/C isn't working. In the winter, they crank the heat so high, it's like a sauna. The prices are exorbitant and most of the time I cannot get what I want. You would think with brisket being the highest priced meat, they would ensure they would have that every day, The parking situation is a joke. Very small lot, but can't be parked in on Sunday because Broad Ripple doesn't charge for parking, but you end up having to park either blocks away or circle the block for 20 minutes for a spot to open up.

It does not look as though you are entering a restaurant when you approach, but you are. I think they are configured more for takeout, but they have access to the large event area with cafeteria-style seating. So there is plenty of room to eat in if you'd prefer (which we did). The hours seem a little limited so be sure to check before you go. The menu, including the specials, is on a white board as you walk in. The selection is streamlined, BBQ-dominated and carnivore-oriented (other than the sides). The system is a walk-up and order from the kitchen doorway. My wife chose the Pulled Pork Sandwich with Baked Beans while I opted for the Chopped Chicken Sandwich with Kickin Coleslaw. The food was very good. The proprietors were very friendly and engaging, and that was a plus. The prices were quite reasonable. With drinks and tip, it was about $14 each. My wife actually took enough away from hers for another meal, so it was a good deal. Our daughter and son-in-law live close, so we hope to try this place again when we visit.

City Barbeque near IU Indianapolis absolutely knocked it out of the park tonight!…read more We ordered dinner for pickup -- a pound of brisket, a pound of pulled pork, mac & cheese, and coleslaw -- and everything was outstanding. The brisket was tender, flavorful, and exactly what good barbecue should be, and the pulled pork was just as impressive. Even the sides were spot-on. I lived in Texas for 30 years, so I have pretty high standards when it comes to barbecue. I can confidently say City Barbeque would hold its own in Texas -- and I'd put this meal up against what you'd find at plenty of Texas barbecue joints any day. I also have to mention the gentleman who brought our order out to the car. It was raining, but he was incredibly friendly, conscientious, and made sure everything was taken care of. That kind of service makes a great meal even better. Excellent food, excellent service, and an excellent experience from start to finish. City Barbeque continues to deliver. We'll absolutely be back!
