    Kimchi Kimbap Roll (EXACTLY how my Emo makes it)

    This was a fun place to go! If you like Asian food they have a whole mix of stuff- Korean, Chinese, Japanese and Thai- but it's a fusion of flavors. The drink menu was fantastic! We had the Old Fashioned and Little Bee Appetizers were fantastic! Got the Edemame, Kimchi Kimbap Roll, Pho Soup Dumpling. The only reason Im giving 4 stars instead of 5 is because IMO it's a little pricey and the Pork Belly Kimchi Fried Rice I ordered tasted delicious but didn't come as described (I didn't see a single snow pea, egg or bean sprout- there were a couple of tiny carrot cubes and pork belly). I would definitely recommend this spot. Good for special occasions, but not necessarily weekly dining.

    A perfect spot for a date night, girls night, or any kind of celebration. This restaurant is a unique fusion of cultures and tastes! I suggest ordering a few different dishes and sampling with a group of friends. My favorite Benitez were the Brussel sprouts (literally could order two bowls just for myself!), the naan with the whipped feta, and the sweet and spicy chicken! Tons of drink options as well and staff was wonderful! I was too stuffed for dessert this time but they do have sweet treats for ending your meal!

    2.20.26 pork shoyu ramen #yum #ReviewsByRL

    2.20.26 Hubs knows I love ramen and sushi and we hadn't been here before, so he got reservations to celebrate my 55th. (I mean, my 29+th ...) This was a Friday night are our reservations were for 6:30pm. Modita is on Carrolton next to the Bottleworks Hotel, so there is the street parking and the lot - everything was already fairly corded, but we got a space in the lot. We ended up arrive about 6:15 and the place was probably 80% empty at that time. The interior edges on industrial, but with a darker color palette that feels cozy. We were shown a table in the front room, in the corner, which kind of was disappointing because there were cooler booths and more space elsewhere. So I had a good view of just a wall with freaky monkey wallpaper on it, ha. Water was filled right away and our server came pretty quickly. He said there were no chef specials off menu because they were just coming off devour indy last week. We took a few minutes to look over everything, and I always enjoy asking the servers what is their favorite and why. I am NOT a picky eater, so I will often order whatever they recommend because I like trying everything. We're fans of the Cunningham restaurants, so generally we expect it all to be delicious. I ordered a glass of the Gaspard sauvignon blanc (so delicious ... I ordered another later) and hubs just got a diet coke. We were a little "huh?" when they brought him a glass and a can. The waiter explained that all the other Cunningham properties use (fountain) pepsi products, but , being in Bottleworks ( the historic Coke factory), they use Coke products here. Great ... we like Coke better .. just cans at $3.50 ea. did not fit the ambiance. FOOD! Check out my pics. We got the edamame (wonderful sauce) and uramaki roll to start, then hubs got the shrimp drunken noodles and I got the pork shoyu ramen, which I also had asome leftovers of. For dessert, the Yuzu bar, a nice thick citrusy curd. Everything had a really nice flavor and met expectations of pretty fabulous. My pics are a little dark because the room was quite dim, but I adjusted a bit and I think you'll see how pretty the food was - and it all had very nice flavor. I expect such for a Cunningham restaurant, and, in terms of food, that did not disappoint at all. One downside is that the room was indeed a little too dark, especially at the corner table where none of the overhead lights hit it (the way it was that we could see at neighboring tables). Also, we were right under the speaker and that, plus the general conversation in the room, was quite loud. We basically could not talk to each other without really raising our voices - a lot. Everything came to $165 with free birthday dessert, tax & tip. So ... A+ for the totally #yum food, and this would be a great just regular after work type of place, but for a special occasion ambiance and service levels this does not match some of their other properties. #ReviewsByRL

    This place was really cool. I'd come back for the Brussel sprouts for sure. The staff were amazing. Very knowledgeable about their dishes and considerate of the people with allergies or special dietary needs. They also keep you hydrated. Whenever my water go low, within 30-seconds, it was being refilled. Hot towels for your hands when done with your meal (upon request). I ordered the brussel sprouts, chicken egg rolls, and shrimp drunken noodles. Brussels were some of the best I've ever had. The chicken egg rolls were surprisingly filled with more chicken than veggies. Shrimp Drunken Noodles were tasty. A little more spice would've been nice. They served this whipped feta with the Naan bread that was really good. Our table wanted to put that on everything!

    Modita has always been great! Recently revamped menu includes 5 or 6 more dishes while keeping the bangers. Great date spot with a warm environment with great service. The move here is to order 3 or 4 dishes and just share everything. Went with Pho Soup Dumplings, Pork Belly Bao Buns, and the Salmon Uramaki roll. All phenomenal. Make sure to hammer as much of the broth in the bottom of the soup dumpling bowl. Need to get back soon to try the new drunken noodles and udon!

    Have you ever had food so good that it puts you in a good mood for the next few days? Well that was my experience at Modita. Everything was amazing - the atmosphere, the staff, and the FOOD. next level. We had a bit of everything: sushi, bao buns, miso soup, Mongolian beef, ube ice cream. Yum yum yum. I can't remember the name, but I got the tofu dish and substituted fried chicken, and it might have been one of the best things I've ever eaten. My husband and I came for our anniversary, and it was such a treat. We'll be back for our next big celebration! Highly recommend.

    Shrimp drunken noodles
    Sana K.

    Busy Friday night but service was great. Be patient as food usually takes about 20-30 min to arrive. Food is really good. Some things can be hit or miss. My family loves this place. Vibes r good. Everything was tasty. They make it spicy upon request. Drunken noodles were really good. I like the chicken skewers as well. Great sauce.

    Met a friend here for dinner. Both our first time. Made reservations and everyone was so friendly. Restaurant has a cool, hip and comfortable vibe. Service was amazing in every way all evening long. Shout out to Annabelle who was delightful in every way. There were so many things on the menu we wanted to try. The food was tremendous. Beautifully presented with unique flavors in several standout dishes. Portions were generous too. Chicken egg rolls were solid. The shrimp toast was fantastic and a delightful confluence of textures and flavors. The shrimp noodles dish was tasty. Pork belly baos were very good and filling. Super unique and yummy were the pho soup dumplings. The only mid dish was the garlic miso salad which just didn't hit as well as all the other stuff we got. We had a great evening! Highly recommend!

    Nichelle S.

    Food: I've been here a few times and even with the updated menu, the food is pretty tasty. I tasted the chicken egg rolls recently and they were perfect. I love the naan garlic bread and the sauces on the side. I shared some other foods w/frenz and they had chicken skewers, fried rice, broccoli and Brussel sprouts - we ate down! I tried dessert, the ube ice cream, for the first time and it was amazing Service: from host to server to even other people working the floor, everyone was polite and clear and very accommodating! Ambiance: it's a very dim lit place with pretty decor and since it's Asian cuisine, there were details that gave that cultural feel.

    bao buns

    Cute ambient space perfect for date nights! Our server was very professional and kind throughout the night. Food was amazingggg pho soup dumplings were my fav- would return!!!

    Bao buns and i think tuna tartare
    Natalie V.

    Food is absolutely amazing! The Mongolian beef noodles are so flavorful and delicious! The Bao buns are fluffy and definitely one of my top picks. We also tried the naan and that was wonderful. I've now tried a few of their sushi rolls and they're not my favorite. I would skip those and try some of the other menu items. We also enjoyed both the tandoori chicken and peanut sauce chicken! To finish we had the ube ice cream and that was one of the best ice creams I've had in my life. Definitely make a reservation. Drinks are also great, i love a dirty grey goose martini with blue cheese olives! Service is good.

    ginger miso salad
    Liza G.

    The bao buns never disappoint! Still continues to be one of my favorite spots. I don't know what it is, but I really feel like I am out of town when I come here, ha. I tried the chicken egg rolls for the first time and was pleasantly surprised! They were packed with flavor, and I loved the sweet chilli dipping sauce that it came with. Yum. Get the ginger miso salad and thank me later! Service was great as always (shoutout to Joe), and cannot wait to be back.

    Mapo tofu with side order of noodles
    Heather B.

    Modita has been my favorite restaurant since moving to Indy, but what has truly set it apart is the service you receive while there. During our recent visit, we brought some out of town friends who had a lot of allergy restrictions. Roan, our waitress, took the upmost care in making sure each dish was free from the ingredients in question. Our guests, who are extremely nervous when eating out due to their severe allergies, were so thankful for the care that she took, even taking the time to explain each of the ingredients of the dishes they were interested in. This just further exemplifies that it's not just about the quality of food but how you are treated when trying it.

Almost every single dish is $15 or less and all the appetizers are $6. There was only one guy working the floor but we still got good service. It was busy for a Tuesday night which was good for them this place deserves to be busy! There was relaxing music with a calming slideshow of a reef playing. Here's what we ordered Shrimp tempura 8/10. 4 pieces and comes with sweet chili sauce. Pretty good for a restaurant that doesn't specialize in Japanese food. Tea leaf salad 9/10. Good flavors, slightly spicy, good addition to have at the table. Dry beef salad 10/10. So yummy. Flavors were great and if you ask for it spicy it will be SUPER SPICY so be warned lol. It had a good pepper and cilantro flavor. One of the best things we got. Baby pork ribs 9/10. You get a lot of ribs for the price. They're a little on the dry side but they pair very well with rice and veggies. Gailan 10/10. This was the best thing we had! So good and necessary to add freshness to all the spicy and flavorful dishes we ordered. It's chinese broccoli stir fried with garlic. Very good. Kway teow with chicken 6/10: good flavors but too sweet for my taste. Kungpao chicken 9/10. the chicken was super crispy and delicious. It was a little spicy and sweet. Mango lemonade 10/10. So good. It comes with a lime slice that makes it even better when you juice it with your straw. Overall great food will be back to try more items. Make sure to order sides of rice to go with everything as it is not included. A lot of the saucier dishes skew on the sweeter side. Love this local spot!

It's so much more convenient than driving all the way to the northwest side of Indy. I've been on the hunt for solid American-Chinese food and anything close to more traditional Cantonese-style dishes. Still searching overall, but Tian Fu definitely has some pretty solid options. I specifically go out of my way for their Beef Stir-Fried Rice Noodles (Beef Chow Fun), which I haven't been able to find anywhere else in the city. The noodles have great texture and flavor, and it totally scratches that craving. I also really liked their fried marinated chicken wings, perfect mix of crispy skin and flavorful. I've heard they have a separate Chinese menu you can request, which makes me even more curious to dine in sometime and explore more of their offerings. Overall, I'd recommend them for the variety alone, easily one of the better Chinese food spots in the city, especially if you're on the east side and want something reliable for takeout.

Both of us landed on 1/5. Here's what we ordered: the Mega Bowl Ramen (Chashu & Shrimp) combo with Thai Tea and a Pork Bun, the Fried Squid Tentacle, and the Pork Belly Kamameshi. The ramen was salty and just didn't taste good, which was a real letdown given the crowd. The noodles came out firmer than what we're used to at places in Texas and Japan, and the chashu was the single best part of the whole bowl. The Thai Tea was a complete miss--it looked good but was overwhelmingly milky, like 85% milk, which isn't what Thai tea typically tastes like. The Pork Bun was drowning in sauce and overwhelming to eat. The Fried Squid Tentacle was the highlight of the meal, though it's comparable to what you'd find elsewhere. The Pork Belly Kamameshi was the worst item by far with a tiny amount of rice with a huge amount of sauce piled on top. We got through only about a fifth of the pan because it was too intense and far too little rice. To be fair, this spot gets a lot of love online for its broth and its novelty robot server (can be found in a lot of Japanese restaurants) so tastes clearly vary. But for the two of us, the meal was salty, oversauced, and unbalanced, and we wouldn't come back. 1/5.
