Quick and dirty: Â Upscale atmosphere with a good wine and food selection. Â Very good food and excellent service with a noise level that permits reasonable conversation even in the bar. Â We often stop here midweek after work for wine and munchies from the appetizer menu. Â Over the last few months, the appetizer menu has been shrinking, but good selections still remain. Â The have a very good wine list both by the bottle and by the glass. Â Very good for both steaks and seafood. Â They have one of the top two lobster bisques in town (they are tied with the Columbia Club in this regard). Â Excellent steak toppers. Â Be prepared - entrees and sides are al la carte. Â Highly recommended.
On this trip, we went there at around 5:30 PM on February 13th (I'm a bit behind on my reviews) on one of our after work drop-ins.
We had their signature stuffed shrimp and the meatballs.
Shrimp: Â "3 Shrimp Stuffed with Our House Made Crab Cake Mix, and Wrapped
in Applewood Smoked Bacon from The Smoking Goose." Â Large, meaty shrimp stuffed with a crab mixture, wrapped in bacon, and baked. Â The order normally comes with three shrimp, but they will add a fourth (so the order can be evenly divided by two) for a slight additional charge. Â The saltiness of the bacon nicely sets off the tastes of the shrimp and stuffing. Â The crab mixture has a good flavor and stands up well to the other taste combinations. Â Recommended.
Meatballs: "A Family Tradition with 9 Meatballs, Brown Sugar Barbeque Sauce, Black Pepper Croustinis." Â Very flavorful in a sweet barbeque sauce. Â The meatballs are about an inch in diameter - nice single bites. Â Recommended.
Overall good selection of liquor including makers, Johnnie Walker Blue, Black and others..
The food was good, but limited as we had a select menu in our room for the event. Â The ceasar salad was good with just the right amount of dressing. Â I had a chicken something or another for my main meal and they brought out some sides to share. Â The mashed potatoes were very good and had good flavor. Â The green beans were fresh and cooked well. Â
Service was good.. they kept our drinks filled and took good care of us overall.
Why does Peterson's deserve 5 stars? Â Because I can't find a reason *not* to give it 5 stars. Â Not even close to finding a reason.
It's on the pricey side, but you're paying for excellent service and great food, so it's worth it. Â I recently had dinner at Peterson's and chose the dry-aged NY Strip that was one of the specials that evening. Â Not sure that I've ever had a better steak. Â Perfectly prepared and even better than I expected it to be.
The building is small, but doesn't feel crowded. Â Same with the bar - it's small, but I've never felt crowded there. Â
Definitely check Peterson's out the next time you are in the mood for a steak. Â They have some excellent sounding seafood option, Gunthorp Farms chicken and at least one pork entree but I've always gotten a steak the times I've been here.
This place is fantastic in terms of ambiance. Â I requested a quiet corner in my reservation and was given exactly that. Â Everyone knew upon our arrival what we were celebrating and everyone congratulated us. Â
The downsides of the place is the cost. Â It was pretty pricy, especially for what we were given. Â Also, I found the food to be a little too salty. Â I ordered the prime rib medium rare but it was given to me medium. Â I was too hungry to take it back. Â My husband loved his aged strip and that was cooked perfectly. Â With as many great steak places as there are in town, I'm undecided if I will try here again.
We just happened into this local place since out hotel was nearby. It also look good on YELP. The hotel actually recommended them and gave us a coupon for a free desert. I was a little skeptical , but we had a great, reasonably  priced meal... and all local !!! It is a steakhouse but  i had some great fish, and the staff was attentive but not overbearing -- we liked it so much we went back the second night of our two night trip..[this time for steak] .. if you are nearby, give them a shot!
Review Source:I had reservations on a Monday night - requested a table in a quiet area since it was a special occasion. Â We were seated in the back room next to a group of 12. Â Within the next 20 minutes, 3 more large groups were seated in our proximity. Â It was so loud, we could not hear each other across the table. Â Finally, the waitress moved us to another area. Â It was quieter, but this is just a loud place. Â This was on a Monday when the place was maybe 15% full. Â The food was okay; nothing special - but when I pay big $$ for steak, I expect better.
Review Source:The best restaurant in Fishers that I've been to. Expect to make an evening of the experience. Ask what they have that's not on the menu, and discover hidden secrets. The salt-rubbed roast was extraordinary - hasn't been matched since.
I make my own steaks at home, fresh from the local butcher, exactly how I want them. No chef in the world knows my tastes better than me. So I don't order steaks in restaurants. Unless it's absolutely extraordinary, it's bound to cause disappointment compared to what I can make at home. So I can't rank Peterson's on steaks.
Soup and appetizers are superb. The bisque is very good.
The waitstaff is formal and responsive. This waitstaff WILL NOT interrupt your meal and ask "how are we doing?" Thank goodness! Next time somebody asks me that, I'm going to scream. Nor will they try to take your dishes from right under your fork. Why do so many restaurants attempt to snatch up your plate as soon as you slow down? Are they running low on dishes?
This is exactly what it posits: a quiet formal evening dining experience with top-shelf (expensive) drink and food. If you expect something else, you'll be disappointed.
My wife and I celebrated our 5 year wedding anniversary here, and it was great. Service was very friendly and thorough. The atmosphere was great as well. It was dimly lit too, which is great for any romantic dinner. Â The food was cooked to our specifications, and tasted great too. It was everything you would expect from a high end restaurant. They did give us free champagne and a dessert to celebrate our anniversary too. Price was high, but that is what we expected. A beer, mixed drink, 2 salads, lobster tail, and the 16 oz strip ran about $140 not including the tip. We'd definitely go back. Five stars!
Review Source:I was there a week ago and I honestly can't remember what I had for an entree, so I guess it was not "the best I ever had" of whatever it was. Â I do remember the WEDGE SALAD was a delight -- not just bleu cheese, but pears, walnuts, and balsamic vinegar made THAT a top five salad for me. Â The atmosphere is very nice. Â Our server was a bit to excited about the special--- we butterfly the shrimp, stuff it with crabmeat, and wrap it in BACON!! Â (alllllrightly).
Review Source:This is simply the best food in Indiana, and is priced accordingly.
The bisque is wonderful. Read a review that it didn't have a lot of lobster in it...it's bisque, not chowder. It's made via a long process involving shells, stock and LOTS of simmering. It's smooth as silk-- just not something easily reproducible without a lot of time and skill.
I love the sashimi tuna appetizer, but am also a big fan of the portabello fries.
I wish they had dry aged ribeye all the time like they used to, but there is a sourcing problem from what I was told. The lamb porterhouse was a great alternative. in the dozens of times I've been here, I've never had a steak that wasn't spot on, and they go +/- on all their temps. They warn that well done steaks are not guaranteed, but if you're ruining a steak....
The pinot noir risotto and scallops is one of the perfect dishes about which you should change nothing. It is a perfect meal.
The sides are meals unto themselves. Skip the baked potato (it's a potato...) and do the asparagus or the scalloped potato which is almost too rich. All are made for sharing.
The wine menu can be daunting, but there are some real gems on there. Ask for advice, or samples of the by-the-glass.
Dessert is good, but kind of an afterthought after the entree extravaganza. I would not go just for that like I might somewhere else.
Surprisingly good coffee, by the way.
And, last, but not least, the service: it does not get better than this. I've never seen a mistake. Never. I say that without reservation. Orders/timing/recommendations, it's all what it should be. You see the same faces over the years instead of the constant parade at other places.
I save up to go here.
OH!! And NO children! Love that.
Was there on tuesday night about 9 pm. Had the best steak I've ever ate!! Was told kitchen closes at 930 weekdays, Came back Wednesday at 9:20 was told kitchen closed at 830 because they were slow. At the prices they charge only a couple of customers should pay the help!
Food is excellant waitresses & barmaid is very friendly, service is very slow, took over 20 minutes just to get the bill.
I will go back because of the food, but they could be so much better.
I really had high hopes for this restaurant. I'm a regular at Sullivan's but after reading reviews on Yelp I decided to give it a try. Nice atmosphere and great service. However it gets 1 star as a steakhouse for me.
Why one star?? Because both my partner and I had to send our steaks back because they were severely overcooked. We ordered Medium and got Well Done TWICE!!
I'm sticking with Sullivan's for now. Sorry Petersons but if this was Top Chef you'd have to "pack up your knives and go".
We were 4 people on a Tuesday evening during the Northsidenightsindy promotion which featured a 3 course meal for $30pp. We have dined at Petersons on a number of previous occasions and always had very good meals.
The food was excellent. Both salads offered on this promotion were fresh and good. 3 of our party had the filet and all pronounced it excellent. My mahi mahi was superb. The raspberry sorbet had a rich flavor and was a perfect ending with a good cip of coffee. The flourless chocolate cake was very much like a thick hunk of fudge - too rich to enjoy more than a small piece but great flavor.
The service was a tad too attentive - plates whisked away at the earliest possible moment, before all 4 of us were finished with the course.
However, the fly in the ointment  were the unexpected and chintzy extra charges for what I don't consider "extras" in a restaurant of Peterson's caliber. We were charged $.75 per anchovy on the Caesar salad; that was $3 for 4 anchovies. One member of our party had the wedge salad and asked for some of  the thin cracker- like wafer that was served on the Caesar. Those crackers appeared on the bill for $3.
Because we considered these charges uncharacteristic and inappropriate, we brought them to the attention of the manager who simply said the charges reflected his costs.
We will return to Petersons for their good food but are disappointed and hope they will revise this practice which is more suitable for a fast food chain.
Excellent food. Â Ridiculously overpriced wine menu. Â Still.
Much as I love the food here, my ears are always turning red as I review what is certainly, a very nice, broad wine menu. Â
At most fine restaurants, as the price of the wine increases, the mark up actually decreases. Â This makes sense. Â The restaurant needs to cover fixed overhead and costs and so it makes sense to have a higher markup on cheaper wines than on expensive wines. Â Not so at Peterson's. Â Not only are the wine mark ups high, they are actually some of the highest wine mark ups in the entire country. Â
A couple of examples:
A 2007 Justin "Isoceles" Red blend (A nice bottle by the way, I've been to Justin a few times) sells routinely retail for around $50. Â At Sbicca Bistro in San Diego: Â $110. Â Peterson's price: Â $150.
A nice trophy Cab: Â 2007 Nickel & Nickel C.C. Ranch. Â Retail usually around $65 to $70. Â Go to the Vivace Restaurant in the San Fran bay area and the 2008 (which sells for about the same as the 2007) is $99. Â The 2005 C.C. has a little higher retail price and sells for $155 at the very pricy Trump Golf Club in L.A. Â The price at Peterson's: Â $175. Â
My guess is that Peterson's management thinks most of us are too wine naive to know better. Â My suggestion at any restaurant: Â pull up <a href="/redir?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwine-searcher.com&s=d0268ff02533d7db98f7aa974357a75a69e7166e42f47e706dac96e661fa6f52" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://wine-searcher.com</a> on your smart phone (or use Google goggles) and at least see what the real retail price is. Â It's very reasonable to pay a 2x mark up on a $50 bottle of wine; the mark up on a $100 bottle of wine ought to be no more than 1 1/2 to 2 times retail. Â More than that is shameless gouging.
I do plenty of business entertaining and I think this place has an incredible menu - cannot believe I am in the middle of Indiana. The waitress said they are rated in the top 5 in Indiana every year. Â I can believe it due to the offerings but maybe we came on an off night. Â We both ordered seared tuna prepared differently and the Tuna was excellent. Â The sides were not anything special and a bit overcooked. Salad was good but not great. Â Great wine list. Â $120 for 2 including tip for a salad, main course and a glass of wine. Â A bit pricey compared to what I would expect. Â I will go again for the steaks next time and reconsider the value. You should go as it presents itself first class and the menu is as well.
Review Source:Here's how our night went:
- Bacon-wrapped Shrimp (3 for $20, but amazing)
- Coconut Martini (Wife loved it)
- Glass of Cabernet ($14, very good)
- Lobster Bisque Soup ($8, Not too much lobster in it, but great taste)
- Mixed Greens Salad ($7, Delicious and sooo fresh!)
- 16 oz. Ribeye ($37, Not the *best* steak I've ever had, but probably Top 15. Go to Texas and you'll get twice the steak for half the price.)
- Amish Chicken Roulade ($27, Wife said it was "the least favorite part of the meal". Â Orzo was so-so, chicken was kind of bland. For the price, go with some of the fresh seafood instead.)
- A flourless chocolate torte was complimentary since we were celebrating our anniversary. Save some of your red wine for this! Delicious, almost like eating fudge. Â Rich and decadent.
- Two truffles for the road, compliments as well!
Used the recent $70 Groupon for a night out and was treated just as a normal customer (Groupons typically get the raised nose at this type of place, just tip well and you'll help the rest who come behind you :) Â Got out of the door for $50 + tip with the Groupon (paid $35), amazing meal for a great price.
Stopped next door (wolfie's) for a beer and asked for a nice restaurant suggestion since we both were from out of town. Â Peterson's was suggested. Â We went for dinner on Thursday night, and had excellent service, wonderful food; I had the pan seared tuna, while my friend had the crabcakes. Both of us were extremely happy with the meal.
The ambiance is cozy elegance, and was pretty busy for 8 pm. The prices are upscale, but would definitely suggest this for a special occasion!
We used to be regulars here and for the life of me I can't figure why we have neglected this place. We sat in the bar area which is usually my preference anywhere. Small group of good friends. Service was outstanding. Great cocktails! Started with Kobe ravioli and Lobster Bruschetta. Ravioli were excellent but the Bruschetta  made me feel like Usher, OMG! Something about Lobster, prosciutto, goat cheese, Balsamic vinegar and olive oil that just gives me the goose bumps! So many great ingredients in the same dish was exciting. That said on to entrees.My wife got the Maine Diver Scallops which she loved. I opted for the Tuna. seeing that they serve several different types, I was hoping for my all time favorite Bigeye! I was out of luck. They only had Yellowfin. This came out cooked perfectly RARE! I loved it. It was an excellent cut of tuna that melded extremely well with the accompaniments along side it. Service excellent! Food exquisite! Great overall experience. I can't wait to get back so I can have the Foie Gras and Wagyu Carpaccio appetizers. Stay tuned!
Review Source:This restaurant never disappoint us. Â Starting with the food (which is why most people choose a dining establishment in the first place), it is among the best restaurants in Indy with its primarily seafood and meat menu. Â Unlike many restaurants in our fine city that overdo it on the serving sizes to mask the fact that the food is simply mediocre, Peterson's offers suitable portions that leave you satisfied but not overwhelmed. Â Fresh ingredients, beautiful presentations, warm bread with fresh butter and walnut pesto, a great array of desserts...ahhh!
What puts Peterson's above other upper-end steak and seafood establishments though is its service. Â Attentive, but not overbearing, servers and bus staff. Â An unpretentious wine steward who truly wants to help you navigate their impressive wine menu and select a wine that suits your taste and budget, without making you feel as if you're a Hoosier whose preferences in alcohol gravitate toward Coor's Light and Cuervo tequila shots.
Take your pick: A relaxed, friendly atmosphere where you can feel comfortable in jeans (nice ones, please) or a suit. Â A romantic night with your loved one or a place to close a business deal with clients. Â A quiet table for two or a spot at the bar where you can enjoy an expertly made cocktail while watching a game and enjoying extraordinary food in a lively atmosphere.
Pricey? Â For Indianapolis, it is. Â But worth every penny.
An ideal spot for a casual conversation at the bar, a quite evening out or a non-rushed business dinner - as was last night.
The service was as I like, attentive but not pushy or intruding.
Food was very good with and everything cooked perfectly: rib eye, scallops and ahi. Â The vegetables, especially the snow peas and asparagus were particularly fine. Outstanding wine list. No room for desert.
It was quite enough to have a nice round table conversation and we sat for an hour after dinner telling stories, as we do, without being pushed out the door accepting offers for more coffee, even after we said no.
Not sure what the hype is about this place. I've tried it numerous times just to be sure and each time I leave feeling disappointed and ripped off. Â I am not a fan of over priced food just because the atmosphere tells you it should be over priced. Â We've tried just about everything on the menu between my eating partners. Â The seafood bouillabaise is the most disappointing as I love that dish and you can't normally go wrong. Either you know how to make it or you don't. Â They don't! The steaks have always been cooked wrong and nothing is superb, not even the service. They are very slow. Messed up a few people's order 1 of the times. Â If I am going to pay what they charge...I expect to either have fabulous service, fabulous food, or preferably BOTH. Â I get neither here :( Â Â I can see if you are going to dinner and corporate pays but I would not pay with my own money to come there and eat.
Review Source:Love their food here. We go here for special occasions and always love the entire visit. Friendly waiters and amazing food. In my opinion, this is better than Sullivans and Ruth Chris, which I have been to quite a bit.
They have a great special side room my Dad once rented out to surprise my mom for their 30th with all of our family and friends. Very reasonable priced and they helped him out with all of the details, down to getting some flowers for the room.
I'm a Mortons and Capital Grill girl. Â but you know what Petersons is good for? Â their bar eats. forget about the main dining room. it's freezing in there, anyway (I hate how fine dining does that. Maybe it's to accommodate all the men in their suit and ties but still. Makes your food go cold fast too).
Duck legs, crab cake, teriyaki ribs. Skip the meatballs.
But my favorite is their ONION RING tower. You know how MacNivens has fat onion rings? Â Like that. but bigger and better, yeah it's possible! Â Stroll into their bar and just order that alone for dinner. Knife and fork that humble $8 root veggie with relish. awesome! Â Bartenders are friendly and won't frown on you for doing it, either. Â oh yeah, sometimes it's even part of their special rotating Thurs happy hour 50% deal and you can have that baby buster for $4 (!!!)--
Yes you can order off the regular menu in the bar too. Â I had their scallops once. They were good. But not a big Hello Dolly bc fresh fat sweet scallops do all the work themselves--some s&p, quick sear, splash o' white wine, squeeze o' lemon, you're good. not a tremendous lot of skill req'd. Costco is down the street.
Popular for business parties entertaining clients which is great for them, bad for you trying to enjoy a nice romantic dinner for two (since kids or anyone under 21 for that matter aren't allowed).  Aside from being loud, it is incredibly dark and dreary interior decor.  The service was slow and inattentive.  The crab cake appetizer was either canned or not fresh  -- either way completely unacceptable for an upscale steak and seafood establishment.  The steak was salty and a tad overcooked if I recall.  Sides were not that great.  Overall just underwhelmed.  Much better places to get steak or seafood in Indy (Mo's, Oceanairre, Bonefish, Fleming's, Sullivans, etc, etc.).  Not worth it even with at $25 <a href="/redir?url=http%3A%2F%2Frestaurant.com&s=c5fe485af4df376130bee54f875814d79c4d7913e1258123b1206d2bdbf4873b" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://restaurant.com</a> coupon -- much better food and service in this price range.
Review Source:i've been to peterson's over a dozen times and have yet to leave w/o thinking that it's a GREAT restaurant.
the food is a little on the pricey side, but it's always worth it. Â I've had an assortment of steaks and seafood dishes and i am always blown away.
also the staff is extremely friendly and very aware of their guests. these waiters should teach classes to the rest of the country on how to serve!
ps ask for the flourless chocolate cake for dessert, it's the best dessert i've ever had!
This review is only for their Graham Cracker ice cream. Â My brother completely outdid himself for Christmas dinner this year. Â He ordered Peterson's Graham Cracker ice cream and paid full scoop price to serve 12 people...gulp. Â The ice cream was very good, however, I have to say that Handel's Graham Central Station ice cream is every bit as good (dare I say better) and WAY less expensive, especially when serving a group that size. Â I've never eaten at Peterson's but I hope to some day because I hear their food is incredible.
Review Source:If you are looking for class on the North side on Indy, Peterson's is the place. This is the must go place when vender's are paying for your dinner also! I have never had anything I did not totally enjoy from their menu. The rooms are not over the top fancy, you feel relaxed and well taken care of at all times.
Remember to eat well and live well! And please no chain's!
I went here for a first date last weekend. Â We did not have a reservation, however we didn't arrive until 8:45 or 9pm so I think we must have missed the dinner rush. Â We were sat in a corner to ourselves, which was nice to be able to hear each other. Â There weren't a ton of people there but I thought it was a little noisy for the number of people. Â I ordered the scallops which were fantastic! Â My date ordered the filet, which he enjoyed as well. Â The service was not very memorable. Â They left us alone enough to talk but I never felt that I need to get their attention either.
Review Source:My husband and I celebrated our anniversary here b/c A) we'd never been and B) we've heard nothing but wonderful things. Â We went last night and we got right into our reservation. Â I do recommend making a reservation b/c it did seem that there were people waiting for tables and it's not a large restaurant.
My first impression was that it was extremely upscale and intimate but let's face it...we're in Indy so of course, the locals sport jeans and tennis shoes. Â I never quite get this b/c in every other city there is a dress code for places like this. Â Anyway, aside from that, the restaurant was perfect for our anniversary. Â We had let them know when we made the reservation and they offered to take our photo, congratulated us and we were seated in a VERY private booth - almost too private for us, b/c we like to people watch, but it was WONDERFUL to have that intimacy and not be close to other diners and just be together.
Our waitress was really pleasant but not too involved. Â Our glasses were never empty and we felt attended to. Â She explained the specials in detail, took our order in a timely manner and didn't rush us. Â I like that we didn't feel like we needed to order all at once and our courses were brought out perfectly apart.
We were served warm bread with butter and walnuts. Â It was wonderful!! We each got a shrimp cocktail with cocktail sauce. Â Now, let me just say, we have had shrimp cocktail at many of the steakhouses around town and this was BY FAR my favorite! Â There is something to be said for St. Elmo's shrimp cocktail but since I think that place is HIGHLY overrated and don't like my mouth to be on fire, I would definitely say Peterson's kicks its ass with a perfect balance of spice and you can still feel your tongue and throat after you're finished! Â It was so good and a great way to kick off the meal.
For my 2nd course, I got the lobster bisque. Â There were LARGE chunks of lobster swimming in the perfect broth. Â It was THICK and I could have ended my meal there and been THRILLED, but I am glad I didn't.
For my entree, I ordered the crab cakes and we shared asparagus and augratin potatoes. Â My hubby ordered the dry aged ribeye medium rare and he said it was wonderful. :) My crab cakes were very good and they were large and WAY TOO MUCH. Â I brought them home. Â I have to say, I like the augratin potatoes but wished we would have gotten mashed. :) And the asparagus was SOOOO delicious. Â I am having some for lunch today!! Â The hollandaise sauce danced fabulously on my taste buds!!
We were going to order dessert but compliments of the chef, they brought us a chocolate cheesecake that was as thick as fudge. Â It came with a raspberry sauce and a touch of whipped cream. Â My belly hurt but my pregnant ass wasn't letting it get away, so me and Baby Bee enjoyed it immensely!
I would DEFINITELY recommend Peterson's for a romantic night out to celebrate, couples on a third or fourth date ready to "take it to the next level", an intimate double date, etc. Â They also boasted an extensive wine list that I was dying to try but I'm sadly not drinking right now. I Â have also been told their drinks and martinis are QUITE divine...ah, maybe next time!
If you are in Indy and wanting to try a family owned, non-chain restaurant with an eclectic menu, great service and wonderful food, give this a go! Â Be prepared for an expensive but well worth it, meal!
I would almost have gone 4.5, but our waiter seemed more concerned with the table next to us.
Saw this on yelp, and figured, "hey, we live pretty close, let's go check this place out." Â I'm glad we did. Â This unassuming restaurant was great, and even though it's in an odd location, my wife and I are glad it is where it is.
Ambience- Very classy place. Â It's kind of dark in the place, but it makes it seem very intimate. Â Certainly not a casual place, most people were pretty well dressed, and it definitely seemed like a special occasion type of place. Â There are two sections of tables on each side, and a bar in the middle.
Service- Our server was great (when he wasn't engaging the table next to us). Â As I alluded to before, our server was mixing it up with a table right next to us. Â Evidently, it was someone's b-day, so he was making special efforts to accomodate them. Â I can respect that. Â
Even still, our server was very knowledgeable of the menu, and took extra time to explain the menu, as it was our first time. Â They had a team approach to serving, which was nice, because we always had someone attending to our drinks, or questions.
Food- we started off with an order of portabello "fries." Â They are what you imagined. Â Panko breaded portabello mushrooms served with a horse radish cream ($8). Â we were STARVING, and these deep fried pieces of goodness really hit the spot. Â Considering they were deep fried, they were pretty lite.
And actually before that, they gave us some bread, with a walnut pesto sauce, and an appetizer that tasted similar to chilaquiles (just A piece) to get our taste buds going. Â The bread was soft, and the walnut pesto was surprisingly good. Â The "Chilaquile" like dish was just ok. Â Hey, it was free, so how could I say no?
For dinner my wife got the diver scallops with risotto, and I got a 16 oz rib eye with a crab meat risotto on a portabello cap. Â My wife's scallops were cooked well, and had a nice light flavor, that was paired with an apple relish (it totally worked, and didn't really have an apple taste to it). Â The risotto had just a bit too much garlic in it, but not SO over powering. Â
I ordered my steak medium, but it actually came out medium rare. Â Didn't matter, the steak was that good. Â I admit, my first bite didn't blow my mind, but each sequential bite did. Â There was a slight bit of au jus served with it, but honestly, it didn't need it. Â The steak was seasoned beautifully, and I enjoyed each and every bite.
For dessert we got the mile high coconut German chocolate cake. Â The thing was MASSIVE. Â Clearly good enough for 6 people, my wife and I attempted to dent this cake. Â We did pretty well, but the cake was so dense, and so rich with chocolaty goodness, that we had to take it home.
Overall- certainly not a place you would go to every day, we really enjoyed this place. Â Again, the service was spotty at some points, but for the most part, they were spot on. Â I would recommend this place for a first date, or a special occasion.
Chuck Norris rating- Spinning pile driver
The pride and joy of Indianapolis. This restaurant has two Master chefs. Â One who specializes in the food while the other specializes in pastries. Â Their steaks are beautifully picked and cut. Â They cook their steaks to a T. Â I eat my steak rare to enjoy the real flavor of steak(NO A-1 SAUCE!!!) this places steaks have that beautiful charcoal flavor. Â As well my friend had the sushi grade tuna that was just devine. Â They lightly seared each side like a Japanese tataki and it just melted in my mouth.
