Everyone loved the building and the history along with the atmosphere of the restaurant. Our server Tanner was amazing! Everyone's sides were great along with the shrimp cocktail of course. The reason for the 4 out of 5 stars is because one person's steak was brought to the table undercooked. Sure, that happens and usually isn't a big deal. But when the steak was brought back out it was way overcooked, burnt and tasted charred. So obviously, it wasn't edible. I think what was disappointing was the fact that the chef allowed the steak to be served like that.

The place is pretty with a nice bar area and the ambiance is nice with good lighting. We sat in one of the booths which was dirty but on the plus side love the privacy of them. To start the food took a long time to come which is always understandable and sometimes expected at fine dining, but was not worth the wait or price. First, the steak was said to be good, but the asparagus side was underwhelming with little to no seasoning/ butter. The lamb chops come with Alfredo pasta and was not seasoned and just not good. We had three orders of those so everybody can't be wrong. The shrimp and linguine pasta was dry with no sauce at all. On top of that the noodles were brittle and hard. I asked if we could have more sauce which helped a little bit. But i could not eat it because the noodles themselves were hard and dry and i did not want to send anything back because of the company i had. The presentation was pretty but the execution did not land. We also got espresso martinis and raspberry martinis and those were made well. For a place like this you just expect a little more pizazz and things to be on point! Especially at the price point they are at i expect everything to be tasty and saucy and flavorful and juicy. Can skip this one.

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.

The Fountain Room in Indianapolis, IN, is an amazing restaurant that combines elegance with a…read morevibrant atmosphere, but the food is where it's at. They have all the choices of steak but the King and Queen options for prime rib was the path I took. It was top 5 best prime ribs I have ever had. The horseradish cream sauce that was served with it was also to die for. Make sure you have room for dessert because they have many options. I settled for the Grasshopper Pie which was an explosion of different flavors in my mouth. In summary, The Fountain Room stands decor and atmosphere but honestly the food is want you want in a high end place. Whether you are like me and just in town for a conference or need a great date night spot if you are local The Fountain Room is top tier.

I had the purple haze and it was good! I enjoyed the presentation and the taste! Would definitely order again. We tried the popovers, crab cakes and meatballs for apps. My favorite were the crab cakes and the least fav were the popovers. That leaves the meatballs in the middle. Of the 3, the only one I'd try again would be the crab cakes. On to the main course. I ordered a filet with a sweet whiskey sauce. We shared broccolini, carrots, French onion mac n chz and au gratin potatoes. I ordered my steak medium and it came out closer to medium well-well. The sauce was super sweet but different. The French onion Mac surprised me ...it was better than I expected. The other sides were decent. Lastly we had dessert to go. I heard rave reviews about the pineapple cake so I opted for that. By the time I got home , it was cooked and it was ok. I like the glaze on top. If you love pineapple upside down cake , you will love this cake.

The atmosphere is fantastic, especially during weekend brunch with the DJ and lively vibe. The service has been excellent both times...friendly, attentive, and welcoming. The food has been great as well. The French toast sticks were amazing, and we both ordered omelettes that were excellent. They also have a really fun selection of brunch cocktails on the menu. If you're looking for a cool, energetic brunch spot, we definitely recommend checking out The Oakmont. We'll absolutely be back.

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!

The restaurant features an extensive drink menu that will suite anyone's pallet. We chose to start with the bread service which was killer especially the honey butter. All of the apps look d amazing but went for the dry rub duck wings with home made ranch. My only critic was I wish there were more than 3. Finished off with the shrimp and grits. Although, I wasn't in New Orleans the spiciness took me back there. The wait staff was great. Even though we were late for the reservation we were seated promptly and had multiple people taking care of us. Spoke & Steele is a must if you are staying in the hotel but also if you want a cool vibe for drinks and great food I would stop by and take a look.

Overall somewhat satisfied with my wife and I's experience at Spoke and Steele…read more We made a reservation about a week in advance for Valentines Day- eve. We arrived to the restaurant around ten minutes prior to our reservation, and quickly sat. We walk to a table- a booth that normally houses two tables pushed together, with around two inches between tables. We were practically sitting on top of the other two individuals sitting at the table. Forgot conversation- we heard everything they said, they heard everything we said, might as well have been on a double date. They weren't short of two top tables either- there were at least two, two top tables that sat empty our entire dining experience. Our server was on it throughout the night. The food was good to okay. We started with bread service. One piece of my bread was cold, and the other was warm. The honey miso butter was maybe a highlight of the whole meal. I started with a kale Caesar salad. Nice crunch to it, and an appropriate amount of dressing. My wife and I split two meals. The first- Coq Au Vin Pot pie. The meat was flavorful- but man, there is a lot of pastry when compared to meat. We got the braised short ribs. I wouldn't call the short ribs, short ribs- it was more of like a pot roast taste and consistency. There was a decent flavor, but nothing overtly amazing. Our cocktails were strong, but nothing to write home about. Overall, wouldn't be my first stop for a restaurant downtown, but if I was invited by someone else, I would most likely try it again.
