So I'll preface this by saying we've had a lot of truly great food during our 5 days in the…read moreIndianapolis area. Our last dinner - at Dawsons on Main - was the best! We started with Tony's Favorite Nachos which consist of steak, chicken, chorizo or pulled pork (we chose steak) sautéed onions, peppers, house made queso, pico de gallo, guacamole, and black beans on top of freshly fried tri-colored chips. The flavors were truly amazing and often places skimp on the 'stuff' and give you a million chips - Dawsons has the perfect proportion so if anything, you have 'stuff' after the chips are gone. We loved these nachos and were from Texas so that says a lot. We also tried the Firecracker Shrimp, which are shrimp tossed in house-made honey sriracha sauce. These were unlike anything I've had. They had a crispy crunchy exterior and the sauce was to die for - I would buy the sauce alone if I could! It had heat but not crazy heat and the flavor was superb. Our table had the Beef Stroganoff. I must say I am not a fan of beef stroganoff - but this actually was prepared very well and had a very good flavor which kind of surprised me! We also tried the TriColored Tortellini with Chicken which had chicken, mushrooms, peas, sun-dried tomatoes and pesto cream sauce. The flavors were amazing together and I could have eaten more of this as well! We also had the Blackened Chicken Quesadilla which was a Cheddar jalapeño tortilla filled with sautéed chicken, black beans, roasted corn, house tomato relish, roasted red peppers, spinach, Cheddar and Mozzarella cheese. It was served with sour cream and Dawson's Cajun ranch. Although this was on the appetizer menu, it was easily an entree. It was stuffed with the ingredients and very flavorful and filling. All of the ingredients blended together very well and offered a mouth full of flavor in every bite! Finally, we tried the Bayou Chicken Salad which comes with Blackened chicken on top of iceberg/romaine mix with black beans jalapenos, roasted corn, fresh guacamole, house tomato relish, Cheddar, and Mozzarella cheese. It's served with tri-colored chips and Dawson's Cajun ranch. I left the chips and corn off. This was a generous salad with superb flavors. The dressing was wonderful - a little heat and a lot of flavor. Again, this was very filling as well. There was nothing I could find 'wrong' with Dawsons. The service was friendly and prompt and the food was just extremely good. I wish I could transport this place back to Texas so I could eat there more often!

Service was good. Pot roast was generous, but dry…read more Caesar salad had no zing. Iasked for a lemon to help it. Bar food, but not the best.

This used to be one of the newer LePeep locations, but is now being rebranded as simply 'Maple'…read more Menu seems to be largely the same, not exactly though. Seems a bit pricier though. The coffee is now Lavazza, which is European strong and delicious. Service is friendly but a bit on the slow side, so be prepared. I enjoyed the smoked salmon board, which is basically a do-it-yourself lox bagel and some side greens with a delicious dressing. And even so the menu only gives you the option of a plain bagel, I was offered an everything bagel. I did take that option and i did enjoy my meal.

It used to be Le Peeps and now it's Maple. Delicious food, great atmosphere and wonderful service!!…read moreWe came here for my son's 10th birthday breakfast and the staff went above and beyond! After our meal they brought out a warm cinnamon roll with sprinkles and "happy birthday" written in carmel on the plate! They even sang to him! Amazing experience! Thank you Maple!

We stopped for lunch while we were in town and visited for lunch. They do breakfast and lunch…read more It's quite a charming place - all decorated in Indy 500 theme (it is a few blocks from Motor City Speedway). You feel like you're going back in time about 40 years - and that's actually a good thing. The staff are all extremely friendly, helpful and accommodating. I had the steak omelette. I've eaten many steak omelettes and this is the first time I've ever been able to order the steak cooked to my preference. Most places serve them well done. I asked for medium rare and it was cooked perfectly. It also had cheese and diced green peppers and onions. Nice size and great flavor. Their hash browns were perfect - crispy on the outside but tender inside. The pancakes are large and nicely prepared - not too heavy but not too light! The waffles are also very good - very large and circular - not as thick as Belgian waffles but very good nonetheless. The fried sliced loaded potatoes were excellent. Cheese, bacon, peppers and onions - again, very tasty. Finally, biscuits and sausage gravy were also very good. The gravy had plenty of sausage in it and it was not too runny and not too thick! If we're ever in town again we will definitely be back!

I had breakfast at this restaurant yesterday morning with a couple of international guests visiting…read moreSpeedway. I enjoy stopping here as there are so many older and interesting photos from the Indianapolis Motor Speedway that is very nearby (walking distance). Our server was very kind, friendly, and patient helping the international guests who were trying to navigate the menu. I ordered eggs Benedict. The hollandaise sauce was tasty, but my poached eggs were slightly more done than my preference. Unfortunately, my has browns cooled rather quickly as we were chatting , but were still tasty. My coffee was refilled promptly. It was packed on this Juneteenth holiday morning, but one of my favorite things on this morning was the kindness of the owner stopping by and greeting customers. I believe her and her now deceased husband have owned this restaurant over 40 years.

Stopped at mansion society for a coffee and was surprised that there was a coffee shop inside of an…read moreapt complex, but the coffee shop itself was very cute and had ample parking. FYI to those who may have a physical handicap the prevents climbing steps, there are 2 sets of steps to enter the building, I didn't see any handicap accessible entry when I went there. The area to order coffee was really small and could comfortably fit about 5 people in the line inside the ordering station. There were places to stand in the foyer to wait as well, but in my opinion even though there is an open space in the foyer you could be potentially blocking someone's walking space since the ordering station is next to the entrance and the seating areas are in the entryway. I ordered their seasonal From the Past Latte w/ matcha and whole milk. They mentioned that the wait time to receive the drink was 10 minutes, which was understandable with how busy they were, but to my surprise I actually received my drink in half that time. The drink tasted great and if I was still in the area I'd go there again. I definitely noticed for such a small space, the staff were efficient and moved quickly to get everyone their correct orders. All of them were very cordial and professional as well, so that was appreciated.

I saw this coffee spot as a top hidden gem so my pig and I ventured out to check it out on a random…read moreSunday. Cute place however I was a bit thrown off upon arriving. It is an apartment building. I didn't do my research prior but learned that it used to be a psych ward. Kinda cool. I got their seasonal coconut lavender latte and a signature Sammy. The drink was great, the sandwich took way too long to prepare (we're talking 30 minutes, no joke). I was only annoyed bc I was so hungry, other than that- I didn't care about the wait bc I had nowhere to be. Overall- If I was in the neighborhood and craving a yummy coff treat, I'd return- I did really like my drink.

I so wanted to love this place since it's right around the corner from my residence, however, it is…read morejust ok. The food is decent, the serving sizes are good and the prices reasonable. The service is a bit too relaxed for my taste. If you just holler at me for my order while you are cleaning from the next booth over... well, let's say I didn't really care for that. It also took me 4 tries to get a coffee refill and when I finally got someone to acknowledge my request, the coffee was full of grounds and so I waited even longer while they ran another pot. They were busy with a lot of carry out and door dash orders, which apparently were mixed up quite a bit also. I had a skillet and the food itself was good... not great, but acceptable. IDK, I might give them another try, I am hoping this was just an off day.

Cheap massive portions of good family style food with family style charm!…read more Pros: Low cost, large portions, casual staff. Cons: Casual staff (if you don't like that). Staying at a hotel nearby we got this place for breakfast. Most meals are $10 and I could only finish half. I got a three egg omelet stuffed with toppings, two head sized pancakes, and has brown as their standard serving. The inside decor is very pleasant too with custom seats, plants, and a nice relaxed atmosphere. This extends to the staff and I personally liked it. The host was also the waiter for another group and they joked like old friend, the son helped run the register, and orders and questions may be yelled from the back for efficiency but it was never rude and it fits the mood of the place. 10/10

And to say we were not disappointed is an understatement! The chef knows exactly what he is doing! In a 6 day span we came here 4 times lol. The salsa was so fresh and flavorful. The chips were also perfect. We all got margaritas. Can you believe that these were the smaller size options? Lol I got the shrimp cockatil the first time. It came in a huge margarita glass and was served similar to ceviche and topped with avocado. My coworkers got steak quesadillas and steak fajitas. Everything here was extremely fresh and you can taste the love in every bite! And the decor is so cute especially the anchors along the wall! When i came back I ordered 2 shrimp tacos and 1 pescado taco! And they gave me a free churro to go!

GREAT PLACE FOR MEXICAN FOOD NEAR THE INDY AIRPORT…read more================================================= My son met my husband and I for dinner after we landed at the Indy Airport on Thursday, June 18, 2026. He is a native Californian and knows good Mexican food so we trusted him. They did not have the carnitas that I ordered so I ended up ordering fish tacos. They were really good. My son likes the place and has eaten there a couple of times. My husband was happy with the beef fajitas as well. The staff are friendly and the service is quick. You can watch the World Cup while dining as well.

It's a regional…read more'chain' in 4 cities in the U.S. The inside (especially the line of small tables for two) reminded me of an egg carton. The lighting over the tables are oval shaped as an egg and the inner parts of the light resemble an egg yolk. Cute play on the theme. Our server was very friendly so that was a good start. I had the southwestern salad with buffalo chicken. It had corn and tortilla strips (which I left off), black beans, cheddar cheese, tomatoes and bleu cheese dressing. It was super fresh and very flavorful. The chicken actually had a good buffalo flavor which many claim to have but don't. We also tried the Nutella crepes with bananas, strawberries, whipped cream and Nutella. In addition to being very large, it had a great taste and was very fresh. Another hit for sure. The avocado toast with salmon was really good. The flavors were spot on and as with the other food, very fresh and well prepared. The brisket burger patty melt was also done perfectly. The brisket patty was a perfect medium and the onions were grilled just right. We opted for mayonnaise instead of the Thousand Island dressing it comes with. The other dressing may have been good but the mayo really paired well. Finally, the club sandwich was again prepared perfectly. Fresh meat, perfectly toasted bread (some places under toast and many over toast) - it was quite tasty. The French fries were fried so that they were crispy (but not overdone) on the outside but soft inside. We were very pleased with The Yolk and would definitely return if we come back to town in the future!

I was a disappointed by this restaurant…read more For context, I got an egg white breakfast sandwich and they cooked the avocado into the egg and it was really disgusting. I also got a side of egg whites, but they were cooked in that butter spray and didn't taste fresh. The cheesy grits were OK but not very flavorful. I also got a Matcha, but it was pretty watery about a two out of five stars. I will note that the service was good and the staff was friendly.
