Absolutely amazing!…read more I ordered the garlic cheesy bread, honestly the best I've ever had. I would eat 20 slices if possible. I can specifically for the chicken parmigiana, which had a great review here, and it did not disappoint. The crust was crispy all over and the sauce was so good. 10/10, will make an effort to come back! Our server was very attentive and met all expectations. The restaurant itself wasn't very big but the tables and lighting were nice. There is also a bar. The only negative is the bathroom.

The chicken Parmesan is God-tier! You won't be disappointed with any dish here!…read more Also, the GM, Jordan, creates such an inviting atmosphere! My friend is vegan and Jordan spent a solid 5 minutes explaining every vegan food item for my friend in-depth on a Saturday during peak busy hours. She is so knowledgeable of the menu and is amazing at making each patron feel seen and welcomed. This is the best Italian restaurant in Indy!

One of my go to spots for brunch, and you can usually find me here on the weekends. The staff is…read morealways friendly, the food is consistently delicious, and the overall vibe is upbeat and welcoming. My newest obsession is the chorizo breakfast burrito. It's packed with egg, sweet potato, and chorizo, and I highly recommend adding queso which comes drizzled on top. Absolute perfection. My only suggestion would be to add a couple umbrellas to the patio. It gets very sunny out there, especially with the sun reflecting off the white tables, so a little extra shade would make outdoor brunch even better. Overall one of my favorite spots in the city!

Wow. I am super impressed and satisfied. I ordered the garden Benedict with tomato and a vanilla…read morematcha latte. Within 8-10 mins I was served. Quick! Considering this seems to be a popular spot. The toast it was served on was an herby and grainy and perfectly cut. I was surprised it wasn't an English muffin! The knife is served with was perfect for cutting into the toast and very beautifully plated! The plate was balanced with some lemony notes, creamy hollandaise, runny yolk, and avocado! Super fresh ingredients, and delicious! Ingredients seem to be picked thoughtfully, even pastries look to be sourced from bakeries in the area. They also offer gluten free and vegan options (and swaps!) The staff is friendly and welcoming ‍. The restaurant is well kept, clean, and inviting. I'd recommend this to anyone visiting Indianapolis!

Daisy bar is one of those places I've been meaning to go for a while, and now that I have, I won't…read morewant to go anywhere else. The welcoming, open space is in the factory arts district, so you can make a whole day of it - go to MVMT house for a workout, get lunch at Daisy Bar, and do some shopping at Salt & Ash. I went for brunch during the week and wanted to get some work done, so posted up at the bar with a vanilla latte (amazing) and ordered the breakfast sandwich with bacon added (phenomenal). Bar service was excellent and I'm at an age where I appreciated that the barstools had backs to them. Ordinarily, you can grab a menu to peruse, find a seat, and then order at the counter when you're ready (and linger as you please, returning to the counter when you're ready to close out), but bar seating was full service. Can't wait to try the dinner menu and a cocktail at a future visit!

The food is really good with some pretty unique ingredients and flavors. I thoroughly enjoyed the…read moreVeggie Breakfast Burrito with what seemed like a homemade, spicy red salsa as well as broccoli, feta, red bell peppers and crispy home fries (inside the burrito). The Fried Egg sandwich comes with pickled onions, crunchy sunflower seeds, avocado and a great value for a hearty meal in the heart of downtown adjacent to the BottleWorks District. The decor is adorable! There is also a casual, cute bar and great drink selections! Self service approach (after you order, they drop the food off at your table but they have water, utensils & napkins available for you--Kind of like Flower Child in Nora). Definitely hipster vibes. Plenty of open spaces to fill across from Center Point Brewing. LOTs of construction going on in the surrounding building at the up and coming Factory Arts District. Didn't seem to stop people from working there remotely though. It was nice to go on a Monday afternoon while there was plenty of parking in the lot although there is street parking nearby as well.

Wow wow wow, that shrimp cocktail is incredible and slaps you in the face. The horseradish is…read morestrong but so delicious. I would come back just to get that again. The shrimp were massive too. I also got the filet mignon slider which was amazing too. I got medium rare and it was cooked to perfection. The servers were phenomenal and the overall place is very classy and elegant but friendly.

I really enjoyed my visit to Harry and Izzy's while I was in town for a conference! The rest is…read morevery conveniently located, and we were able to easily walk to the restaurant from the convention center. We had a larger group and were able to book a reservation in advance. We were seated in a private room for our meal, which was perfect with a big group. The staff was very friendly and helpful, making sure that everybody had any questions answered. I appreciate that we were given to wait staff for our group size which made things move very fast and efficiently. They have some great lunch offerings and deals to get the most out of the menu. I really liked the lunch combo with the shrimp cocktail, their homemade sauce really packs a punch! We also had a special birthday and they were able to bring out a dessert for our birthday girl, and that was a great part of the experience as well.

First of all the food was delicious, the service was very good and the atmosphere was very nice…read more So why not 5 stars? Why? Well we knew there was a 90 minute seating. This is explained on the website and I believe when I made a reservation online. With about 10 minutes yet to go on our 90 minutes, a person whom i assume was the manager came to our table to remind us. This was okay although it could have been worded differently. We were just paying the bill that had just arrived when she came back again stating she had a reservation waiting and she needed us to basically leave. We did not see anyone waiting either at the hostess stand or outside but rules are rules. Again it could have been worded differently and perhaps it could have been suggested we could finish at the bar (perhaps those are also reserved though) or to one of the empty tables outside. If you want excellent food and great service and you can be finished in 90 minutes I would recommend Bodhi. I also understand turning tables. Just know the timeframe does not allow for dessert (or an appetizer as we did) unless you hurry and you had best be watching the clock or the manager will make it clear you need to leave.

BODHI lived up to its literal meaning, we experienced our awakening in the midst of our incredible…read moremeal journey! Establishments like BODHI highlight the true meaning of cuisine bridging together love and community - uniting people, sharing Thai cultural traditions and deepening human connections around a shared table whether in the dining room, the bar or their picture-esque patio! Jake was absolutely incredible. From our service to our desert we were left with full hearts (and of course tummies) for the duration of our trek home to Nashville. We of course had to order some cocktails, we ordered our birthstones or on their menu their collection from Gems of Siam "Black Star Sapphire" and "Ruby" The Ruby ended up being the star of the show! The most unique drink we both have tried! We have never experienced something quite like that! From the ruby chocolate swoosh with a boozy tropical gel to the coconut milk punch adding depth to the Song Cai Dry Gin I was left in awe. (Recommend a sip and then a bite of the chocolate to enhance the flavor profile) Our meals were created with such love. It was truly art. Played beautifully and tasted phenomenal. The noodles were light, fluffy, amazing. The Crab Puffs were incredibly light and delicate which gave me a new appreciation for them! I felt like I could devour them without feeling too full or guilty to finish my meal. The curry was spectacular. The spices, the aroma, the flavor profile everything was perfect. No notes. It's delicious. Each bite you understand why BODHI is a staple in the community. You taste their desire to make you happy. To fall in love again. Onto dessert! Salamat Cookies has always held a special place in my heart the moment I discovered them two years ago! As a Nashville resident, I have had their treats delivered to my door. To come to BODHI and to my surprise see Salamat on the menu could've have been a greater cherry on top. We ordered the Ube and Pandan blondies. The experience was put over the edge by the addition of a strawberry cold foam addition to the desserts. Even though we took our deserts to go they were packaged with care. Why will BODHI forever hold a special place in my heart and will always receive a visit or recommendation from me to anyone visiting, driving through or living in Indy? Simple. Love. Each bite you can taste the love that was put in. Every interaction from the staff from dining room, patio, to front of the house you feel the love. Every laugh, every clink of the glass you hear the love! BODHI was built on a strong foundation of love. Three generations of Thai women, three generations of true love, true grit, dreams coming true. (To those reluctant to give this place a whirl due to the time limit, my tip? Be mindful of how your time is spent. Of course be present with your family, friends, colleagues, guests. We were able to order 2 rounds of drinks, share an appetizer, delve into an amazing conversation, enjoy our dinner without rush AND order dessert, summing up our conversation in the allotted time. It's doable! There are also times where they may not have to strictly enforce, however if you know you like to spend more time on your meal and in conversation, try coming on a weekday or coming earlier! Peace Love and Hugs friends!)
