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.

Stopped in at Vans today 1 star at its best and im only giving that because they had good customer…read moreservice and the place was clean enough. They offer a few dry goods on the shelves, noodles, Chinese candies, etc. They also offer a very small selection of fruits and vegetables as well as fresh and frozen fish and a variety of other frozen seafood. They fry fish as well and thats where the problem is. I ordered a seafood combo #1 with catfish filet, perch, shrimp huspuppies and fries and I also ordered a whole catfish dinner which came with 2 "whole catfish". It was all burnt and fried to a crisp, wayyyy to hard. It lacked flavor and for the price of the catfish #15 it was real skimpy. I've never seen whole catfish so small. #sorrtnotsorry will not be returning

Great place for fresh seafood, steaks, sushi and a host of other great options.

Back in December of 2025. I became a customer of Banters. The reason I started with that is because…read morejust this past Tuesday I cooked my last of 2 roast, that I bought along with a tenderloin filet, a pound of boneless chicken breast and 4 pounds of ground beef. It had been some time since I finished off the last of the ground beef. I buried my last roast in my freezer under other frozen items and forgot about it. A week ago I had to purge much of the foods in my freezer and rediscovered the roast. So I decided I should cook it. When I opened the wrap containing my roast, I was delightfully surprised! Not only was it not showing any signs of discoloration, rotting smell or freezer burn, it was blood red as if I had just purchased it. I cooked it low and slow in my oven and after five hours I added the vegetable. It was amazing and delicious. It was just a 2 pounds of chuck roast. I ate it 4 days in a row finishing it off. Honestly, I wished there was more. The purpose of my share is; not only are the butchers friendly, swift and kind. The meat, every bit was absolutely pure, no processing, no Mc Donald type slurry added, no fillers, just REAL, GOOD, QUALITY MEAT. Worth every penny. It's easy to see why the comments and ratings, before mine are mostly five stars (you can literally see the 5 stars busting at the seams) and raving about the service, the quality and freshness. Just like meat was as I was growing up and the way all meat should be. If you're new, or reviewing Banters before shopping them. I highly recommend their shop. Go in and buy one item and see for yourself. You'll be glad you did. We all deserve meat that is healthy, delicious and nutritious, like what we grew up eating. So... "what are you waiting for"? One more thing; they accept SNAP. Bon Appetite!
