Almost skinny chicken sandwich on a pretzel bun
Kyle A.

I think we are becoming regulars here. It's such a relaxing and friendly place with good food and service. This trip I tried the crab Rangoon dip and oh man, it was simply delicious. It comes with big chunks of crab meat covered in a cheese sauce and fresh fried crispy wonton chips. My only complaint was that I didn't order one entirely for myself! My entree was the almost skinny chicken sandwich. The pretzel bun, bacon, and house made honey mustard dressing combined with a grilled chicken breast and Gouda cheese is a near perfect combination if you ask me. One note for the fine operators here, the side salad in the teeny tiny boat dish was maybe 4 bites. Waaay too small. Pretty sure lettuce is cheap so let's get a nice side bowl next time?

So I found myself in Pendleton and stopped here. Pretty much sorry that I did. They close at 7pm on Sunday and I arrived at 6:20pm. I sat down at the bar and waited 10 minutes for someone to actually notice me at the bar. I asked for a menu and a cocktail menu. I chose a cocktail off of their menu, Birthday Cake martini. I also chose the Garden Delight panini and the loaded fries on the side (yes there was an up charge for this). The bartender who seemed new put my order in and then started searching for the ingredients for the martini. I heard him discussing the ingredients for the martini with someone who clearly worked there but was on the customer side of the bar eating. I heard him ask about the raspberry cream that goes in the drink and there was none and then I heard her say just use strawberry. What? So they were going to sub strawberry (known allergen) without telling me. I spoke up then and said it is raspberry and she said you can use either one, so be careful y'all. I looked at the bartender and said just give me a pineapple and Malibu rum. Super simple! This was definitely a bar and it matters who is sitting at the bar as to how loud it is. It is all pretty open. So I received my food soon after that and the loaded fries were anything but, take a look at the pics! The sandwich was alright hence the two stars except by the time I got to the second half it was a bit soggy on the second side and I did not eat it or the fries which were severely lacking. Unlikely I will give this place a second try.

The Almost Skinny is my new favorite!! Great recommendation by the server. The grilled tenderloin was also very good as an alternative to the traditional breaded version. The beers on tap rotate frequently which is great if you enjoy trying new craft beers.

The food is always good. The service is very personal and friendly. They are awesome and the atmosphere is great.

Good food, service, and ambiance. Enjoy stopping in for a drink and dinner. Have watched music here and it is fun. It is loud so it's hard to talk, but it's a fun time.

Cheeseburger and fries
Jeff L.

Good food. Good service. Live music. Kitchen open late. Good price. It was late and a few of us needed to eat before we drove back to Indy. So we stopped in at The Stable to eat. We got the buckeyes for an appetizer. They are pretzel bites with a cheese sauce. I did not get a picture of them because they were eaten so quickly. I got a bacon cheeseburger. It was good. All of the food that my friends got looked really good including the salads. I enjoyed the live music. About 3 different groups were up performing. A good variety of covers. Definitely a place to grab a quick bite at night and catch some local bands.

Dined at The Stable last night and had an amazing Philly Cheesesteak and fries! Looks like weeknights are a great time to get dinner in here, there was plenty of seating available, our food came out fast, and the bartender (who was also our server) offered great customer service. She answered our questions about bands that came to play there, drink options and their menu favorites. I opted for a Philly Cheesesteak based on the reviews I had seen on Yelp. It didn't disappoint! The cheese and housemade horseradish sauce were super YUM! My husband had the Western burger that was piled high in bacon, bbq, and an onion ring. Their fries remind me of In-n-Out Burger fries, which if you've read my review on my first experience there - you'd know these were some of the best fries ever. We also ordered the Buckeyes as an app - pretzel bites and their own beer cheese. Triva is offered the first Wednesday night of every month and they have live music Thursdays-Saturdays. It's a seat yourself venue and bar, 21+ only so leave the kiddos at home. We did for a great date night!

I visited a friend in Pendleton, and we went to the stable. I really enjoyed my visit! There was a live band doing relevant covers, the food was great, and the service was awesome. We got the spinach artichoke dip and pepperoni flatbread pizza. The spinach dip was extra cheesy, which I love. The flatbread pizza left a little to be desired, as I feel like their pizza sauce may need a little more seasoning. The girls bathroom was a little odd with one main secure door and two seperate stalls facing the door with no privacy. The stalls had no doors or curtains. Overall a great experience!

I got iced tea and it wasn't the best or the worst, I'd probably get a Coke next time. I saw them bringing out a lot of wraps to the party they were serving and since it was like 107 degrees with the heat index Mom and I decided to get the fried chicken bacon ranch wrap with onion rings. They claimed on the menu the chicken was hand breaded but I'm not sure about that. The wrap was huge and also 95% lettuce which was obviously from a bag and had a funny bagged lettuce taste. There was the smallest sprinkling of cheese, bacon and tiny chicken tender pieces. They didn't put much ranch on the wrap so that made it dryer. Luckily we asked for extra when we ordered because we like to dip our onion rings in ranch too. We really liked the onion rings. I would have said something about the wraps but our server had that large party so we didn't see her again until the end of our meal. The view was beautiful and they do offer cocktails. They have a nice outdoor covered patio with ceiling fans but Mom said it was too hot even with the fans and since she's nearly 84 I wanted her to be comfortable. We will definitely go back again but I will try something different or leave off the lettuce if I do get a wrap.

To start you walk into this cute little restaurant that feels like a throw back to the early 2000's. Fun light fixtures, yellows and purples, paintings, etc. The owner happened to be serving that day and he was such a pleasure! He gave us a full run down on the menu, why he founded the restaurant, his journey with gluten and told us nearly everything on the menu could be made gluten free. Then he recommended the Benny chips as an appetizer. We ordered it and thought they were a really fun twist on nachos. Now for $17 I do wish we had more meat and a larger portion but overall they were great. Next for the main courses. We ordered the Chicago beef and the taste of Tuscany, both gluten free. The Chicago beef was a let down over all, was a little bland and needed more flavor. The potatoes that we substituted the chips for were bomb! The pasta was the clear winner. Was yummy and was a great tasting dish. Lastly we decided to order some plain cheesecake with strawberries.. fantastic! We loved it. Over all I'd normally give this place a 4/5 based on the food quality/quantity but with the customer service and the attention the owner showed to gluten free people... this is a 5/5! We will be back and this will likely be a staple for us!

We asked questions and she was a little unsure. But alas, she went and found the answer and we were rolling. I got the Mother Clucker chicken sandwich (just because of the name) and it was delicious. Everyone loved their food. I'd for sure come back.

Grill-A Grill only opened in 2024 and is one of the top contenders for best hand-breaded…read moretenderloins in Indiana. Indeed, the tiny restaurant on Main Street in Markleville (population 484) is filled most evenings and weekend lunch with guests anxious for the hand breaded sandwiches, hand cut fries, burgers, wings and more. The owner, Doug, began restoring the historic building in 2019. Now he is working to add dining space upstairs for another 15 tables to help accommodate the demand. I was steered to the restaurant by a fellow Yelper from Virginia. I did not hesitate to make the 90 mile round trip drive for lunch. The dining room is small with a couple cloth covered tables and a bar seating. Soft country music fills the room and a gorilla hangs from the ceiling. The tenderloin is incredibly tender, fresh, juicy and hot with a perfectly seasoned breading. I ordered the regular size tenderloin, Doug also serves a larger version that is about a pound of meat. And don't skip the fries - hand cut and crisp. The fries are 5 star too. The service is impeccable, the kind of small town service that makes you feel special. We loved hearing Doug's story. There is street parking on the side of the building. They do a robust carry-out business, as well. They are not currently serving alcohol. They are not opened mid week for lunch- check the hours. It's worth the drive, even from out of state. So good!

They have the best tenderloin in the state, hands down. The fries are amazing too. Everyone I know…read moresays the same thing about this place. It's a gem and worth the roadtrip. Seating is somewhat limited but they are exapnding. They are also known for their pizza and burgers although I've heard everything is great. I have had the tenderloin twice now and it's consistently perfect.

Bonge's Tavern is what would happen if a world-class kitchen crashed a backyard party in rural…read moreIndiana and everyone decided to keep it that way. The parking lot tailgating before dinner is half the experience. Where else can you sip a drink next to a pickup truck, make friends with complete strangers, and then walk inside to eat a meal that makes you question every life choice that led you to lesser restaurants? The food is absurdly good. The famous Perkinsville Pork deserves its own state holiday. Portions are generous, flavors are bold, and the menu somehow manages to feel both elevated and unapologetically Hoosier. Service was friendly, the atmosphere was chaotic in the best possible way. Everyone having a great time. Come hungry. Come early. Bring a folding chair for the parking lot. Leave wondering why every restaurant isn't this much fun. 10/10. I'd drive past three chain restaurants and a dozen sensible decisions to eat here again. Will be back soon.

Bonge's Tavern is the definition of a "hidden gem." Tucked inside an unassuming, barn-like…read morebuilding, the atmosphere of Bonge's is much more modest than the quality of food they serve. The cuts of meat are honestly St. Elmo's level-caliber. I couldn't believe the size and rich, smoky flavor of the lamb shank. But if you want to see something REALLY huge, order the pork chop--it's basically the size of a small island! While I definitely enjoyed my entree, my favorite part of the meal was hands-down the prime rib pirogies. The shaved prime rib inside was so juicy and tender, and the horseradish added an extra "kick" that took the dish to a whole new level. I couldn't eaten a whole plate of them by myself! One thing to note is that it is notoriously hard to get a reservation at Bonge's, so make sure you plan ahead if you want to dine here. Most of the time, you will have to wait before you are seated due to the small size of the dining area, but trust me, it's worth the wait every time!
