Completely underrated easy, solid casual sit down place to grab a meal!…read more Order from the walk up counter, grab a salad from the plentiful and well stocked salad bar, or get an interesting prepared item from the case.

This is where I would put my opinion of the food, if I had the chance to try it. Farmhouse was one…read moreof the most disappointing restaurants I've ever been to. I saw a TikTok about the Farmhouse restaurant breakfast buffet and immediately ran to DH. We haven't had a good place to go to since The Garrison in Ft Benjamin Harrison shut down so I was excited to see this place had a breakfast buffet. If COVID taught me anything, it's to call first to make sure the information and times are correct. I called on Friday August 21st to verify that the buffet is Saturdays and they open at 8 AM. I was informed that the information was correct. On Saturday morning, we woke up early and drove 26 miles to be there at 8 AM. At a few minutes after 8 we walked to the restaurant. There was no one in sight working. I couldn't see a cook or cashier. I did see the completely bare buffet table though. I thought, okay, it's early...we'll walk around the store and check things out for a few and come back. We came back at 8:15 and the buffet was still bare. This time there were two women talking near the kitchen so I went over and waited. When they were finished talking I asked when the buffet would be done. One lady asked the other who was walking away and going over to the buffet table and maybe turn it on? She was visibly annoyed to be answering that question. I couldn't hear what she was saying because of the noise of the grocery store but it took her like 2 minutes to answer the first woman and she relayed that it would be like another 30 minutes. The reason given was "due to the flooding". The restaurant is miles away from River Road but I didn't know what flooding she might be talking about so I thanked her and went on our merry way. After leaving the building we discussed that we might as well wait since we drove to Carmel for the breakfast buffet. So after driving around going nowhere particular since nothing is open at 8:15 we swung back around to The Farmhouse and lo and behold, the breakfast buffet table was still empty 50 minutes after the restaurant opened. Once again, there was no employee in sight. I took the video at that time. The only items out were for salads. Terrible restaurant. Very disappointed in how things were handled, the lack of service and no actual breakfast buffet. We will not try to come back here.

Server is the bartender, casual and welcoming. There's plenty of offerings on the menu but we both went with burgers with me getting the Angus burger and RRR getting a smashburger. Both burgers were quite good as was my coleslaw and his waffle fries. The coleslaw has lots of black pepper which I was able to tolerate, unusual. All in all a nice beefy winter lunch.

The room was packed, the energy was high, and then the food arrived. Before the plates even hit the…read moretables, that rich, unmistakable aroma filled the air, the kind of comforting smell that only comes from a true scratch kitchen where real chefs handle real ingredients with absolute respect. I watched as people took their first bites. Forkfuls paused mid-air, conversations instantly ground to a halt, and eyes widened across every table. Jake Burgess and the crew from the Burgess Restaurant Group weren't just catering an event; they were executing a masterclass in craft for a crowd without taking a single shortcut. "You have got to try this," someone blurted out to my left, leaning across the table before even finishing their bite. "I'm tellin' you, Jake and his team don't miss," another replied. "Between FoxGardin, The Den, Bonge's, Carnegie's... it doesn't matter which spot it is, they nail it every single time." Taking it all in, it hit me why they stand so far apart. In a world full of safe, forgettable catering, Jake and the Burgess Restaurant Group served up the kind of deep, craveable food that ruins standard dining for the rest of us. It's the kind of cooking that makes you immediately start planning your next trip to one of their spots before you've even finished the meal in front of you. A massive, heartfelt shoutout to Jake Burgess and the entire Burgess Restaurant Group: FoxGardin Kitchen & Ale, FoxGardin Family Kitchen, The Den, Smoky's Concession Stand, Bonge's Tavern, and Carnegie's. Thank you for keeping us exceptionally well-fed last night!

Was in the area and decided to grab lunch as we often do when in a different locale…read more Noticed FoxGardin had great reviews and was very close by. We weren't going to get an appetizer but the bone marrow fries looked so good in pictures that we had to try them. They did not disappoint. Very large serving and extremely flavorful. Easily an appetizer for 4 or more people (there was only 2 of us so we brought some home). My dining partner is not normally a fries person and she loved these. For entree, my dining partner had today's special which was a shredded chicken sandwich that had a jalapeño cheese sauce and the house chips. She said it was very good and again half the sandwich came home. I had their breaded tenderloin which was very good, with nice breading to meat ratio and was a bit larger than the bun. It came with lettuce, tomato, onion and pickles. It came ala carte with no sides. Service was excellent, exceptionally friendly and really took care of us. One of the best waiters I've come across. Inside is a bar/pub like feel. We opted to eat in the air condition enclosed "patio" type area which had a bit more light, but was also noisy today due to the tin lined walls/ceiling and another group that was quite loud. Made it a bit hard to converse. Normally don't think this would be an issue. While not tons of items on the menu, the selection was quite varied and you could really splurge on a filet or other such dish and really go all in for a more lavish dinner or have a burger or tenderloin, all at any time of day. Parking was right in front of the restaurant but could see it being a bit tight on a busy day.

I love going to Sahm's. We've been into most of their restaurant styles. We've been to the…read moreoriginal, both Roosts, Big Lug, Haf Brewhouse etc etc. We've never had a single bad experience in any of them. Our go to at Sahm's is the Clint Eastwood burger, which is a cheeseburger topped bacon, onion rings and bbq sauce with a side of loaded fries. The Bertie grilled cheese is good as well and the salad choices are wonderful too. So here is my new problem and it is barely a week old. They took my Diet Mountain Dew off of the menu. I'm not sure which Heathen made this decision, but being one of the few places that serve it was a plus. Get rid of something else if you want Diet Dr. Pepper on the menu, making DMD the sacrificial lamb was uncalled for. Signed, Sad at Sahms

I hadn't dined here for several years but we frequently visit Big Lug, which is one of my favorite…read morerestaurants. We were in Fishers and a couple of friends suggested that we come here for a late lunch. We arrived around 3 pm on a Sunday. There were only a few other tables of diners at this time. Our party of 3 was seated promptly. We ordered chicken and noodles, a tenderloin, and a veggie burger, a side salad, and Brussels sprouts. I'll mention that there were very few vegetarian options on the menu. Actually the only vegetarian entrée on the menu was the option to substitute a veggie burger for one of the burgers. There were several vegetarian sides. We all enjoyed our food. The tenderloin was huge, chicken and noodles tasted homemade as well as the mashed potatoes. We all enjoyed the Brussels sprouts. We didn't receive the fresh baked bread but after leaving we looked at the menu and it said "Fresh baked bread (upon request)" and we hadn't known we had to request it. Next time we will know it is only served upon request, but I wish our server had asked if we wanted bread, especially with the chicken and noodles. Our server was pleasant but didn't stop by our table again after he took our order until it was time to bring our check. Someone else had brought our food out. It would have been nice if he would have stopped by once to check on our table. The food was excellent, we all said we would come back for the same items we ordered today but would also like to try other entrées.
