    Quesadilla, Italian-style
    Alicia R.

    A tad pricey, but nice place to relax and have drinks and bites. I was downtown and had a couple hours between events, and was looking for a place to do a bit of laptop work. I think I initially popped into JW to stop by Starbucks, but the lobby bar caught my eye. True to name, it is part lobby/part bar. There's a variety of seating choices - couches, high tables, dining tables. There's a fair amount of plug access as well and ultimately decided I wanted some food, so sat myself at high table near the bar and plugged in. During my time there, I ordered two glasses of wine and several appetizers. My only pet peeve was the item names; simplified to a single word, ordering by name felt a bit silly, haha. I had the quesadilla, which is a stack of small quesadillas reimagined with Italian ingredients. A bit messy, but tasty. The shellfish was pricier but was pretty large! Good to share with larger group. It consisted of popcorn shrimp and some decent-sized chunks of lobster. Service was good - attentive, but not overly so as I was working on my computer. Free public Wi-Fi. A splurge compared to typical Internet cafe, but was nice to indulge. Was quiet and fairly empty when I arrived, got noisier as day turned into Friday night and more folks filtered into hotel, but not bad.

    I really enjoyed my visit to the Lobby Bar at the JW. It has some cozy corners, some tall tables or get social at the bar top. They have a great cocktail list with some really good drinks. We ordered some with fresh ingredients (herbs, fruit) and they tasted excellent. The service was on par and timely. We didn't order any food, so I can't really speak to the menu. I'd definitely grab a drink here again.

The period atmosphere and ambience is absolutely intoxicating. This is a perfect starting place for pre-dinner cocktails, leading up to a fine dining experience at Saint Elmo's Steakhouse. The service was superb, friendly with plenty of recommendations on what to try. This venue gets my highest recommendation, and I very much look forward to a return visit, and hopefully to introduce some of my closest friends to this incredible experience.

    This is right up my alley--an upscale atmosphere but not too pretentious (casual). The 2 sliders…read morewith Mac 'n cheese was the perfect amount of food. I paid the $8 to upgrade the mac to lobster mac...so delicious & so worth it (the upgrade was so unnecessary but so necessary, iykyk!). I also love that they allow you to mix & match on the sliders (filet, fried shrimp, or wagyu beef with Brie). I went with 1 filet and 1 wagyu beef, which was also perfect! Would love to try the fried shrimp at some point. The accompanying aiolis perfectly complemented the sliders! I completed my meal with a lemon drop martini. Service was friendly & attentive. Will definitely keep this spot in mind the next time I return to Indy & would highly recommend to others. In fact, I found it superior to my experience @ Harry & Izzy's--much more my vibe!

    One of the things I miss about California is rooftop bars with a view!! Astrea makes me feel right…read moreat home. I went back there to enjoy the sunset on the outdoor patio. I love the fire pits and spacious seating and wraparound layout. The interior is chic and glam. We enjoyed chatting with the super fun and friendly bartenders Jacob, Liz and Hannah. Jacob was kind enough to make me a custom cocktail. I described something similar to a lemon drop but with passionfruit too. It was yummy! They also make a mean espresso martini! We will be back soon to enjoy patio weather and try their brunch.

Keagan Fife (Manager) - A team player, receptive to feedback and conscientious. We had a issue while there and he was able to step in and problem solve with me and come up with a solution that really won us over. We had a moment where it was feeling a bit "why did we come here" but his customer service exceeded expectation. That's good management. (He's the gentleman in the video below.) Let's get the negative out the way 1st. The first waitress asked if we wanted anything to drink. I told her we hadn't received menus. She came back sat them down and walked away. We never saw her again. A new waitress came and she seemed pleasant enough. Once we were all seated she began to take our orders. She made a point to say she needed to write it all down or she was get it mixed up. She then did not write anything down. Our food came out extremely slow but that wasn't a huge deal because we all were mingling. A lot of her team had to step in and deliver our food, give drinks, check on us etc. She was pretty non existent. Two of the ladies never received food. This was after we had been there for 2 hours and everyone else had received their items. At the end when we asked for our check they were all mixed up and confused. The waitress then blamed us for adding things and moving around. We never moved once and she only came around the one time when she originally took our orders. We never got a chance to add things. (it was quite comical that she tried to say that) I ended up asking for manager because she seemed overwhelmed and a bit bias about our group. Assuming that we wouldn't want one check and splitting them because she figured we would want it that way and then blaming us because she did it when we never asked for split. There rule is parties over 8 have to have 1 bill and we never asked for an exception. There was just her assumption that a group of black women wouldn't want to do that. (I digress) There were a few more things but I will end it there. That was the big negative. Now the positive!!! Ambiance 10/10 - great views, great music, great location, umbrellas on roof were great although a but wobbly and scary. Also, they come around with complimentary sunglasses while dining. I thought this was a nice and luxurious touch! Food 8/10 - most food received was delicious Service 9/10 - everyone except for our server was great! Everyone who pitched in to help was awesome! Ended up tipping a different server who basically helped us the whole time. Bless his heart because I know he was super busy. As stated above management handle the situation well. I would definitely go back! I try to give people a chance. I think our server may have been overwhelmed and had a past experience that left her bias against our group but hopefully she can grow and get better. Her actions don't reflect the restaurant as a whole! Go and enjoy the vibes and views!

    Thieves has stolen my heart. What a great place to enjoy a spritz while lounging on one of their…read morelovely velvet couches. In fact, they have five different spritzes on the menu, which I love to see. Of course, they have the classic Aperol spritz. But they also have some creative takes, like the rose spritz, which is what I chose. It was very tasty, light and refreshing, and not too floral, which can happen with a rose-flavored beverage. Spritzes are amazing but not enough sometimes, so I also got a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon. Yum! The pour was generous. I kept my drink orders simple this visit, but Thieves has a whole menu full of creative cocktails. What you do when you enter is just sit down, and someone will come by and take your order. But if you're visiting for coffee (because Thieves is also a coffee bar), you can order at the counter. I don't recall if they offer food. This is mostly a place to get drinks. And it's a lovely place to get drinks. Thieves is located in the heart of Broad Ripple, which means that parking is atrocious. I parked near The Vogue and walked over, but maybe you can find street parking, if you're lucky.

The decor left a lasting impression and is actually quite entertaining and made me want to take ALL the pictures lol. The server was very patient and professional with me and my heathens. I had my go to espresso martini and maybe more than one but hey who's counting right? Thieves is an intimate and cheeky cocktail bar perfect for date night or a night out with friends.
