Amazing service, good vibes and atmosphere. The food was amazing, my waygu burger was so thick, full of flavor, and had plenty of toppings. My husband said his steak was one of the best steaks he's had. read more

This is right up my alley--an upscale atmosphere but not too pretentious (casual). The 2 sliders with Mac 'n cheese was the perfect amount of food. I paid the $8 to upgrade the mac to lobster mac...so delicious & so worth it (the upgrade was so unnecessary but so necessary, iykyk!). 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! read more

Several floors above the legendary Saint Elmo Steakhouse, sits 1933 Lounge. Here, spaced out between several cozy rooms, equipped with small group seating arrangements, you will find a speakeasy themed cocktail lounge with small plate food also available, and a selection of exquisite period, vintage, and modern cocktails. The period atmosphere and ambience is absolutely intoxicating. This is a perfect starting place for pre-dinner cocktails, leading up to a fine dining experience at Saint Elmo's Steakhouse. The service was superb, friendly with plenty of recommendations on what to try. This venue gets my highest recommendation, and I very much look forward to a return visit, and hopefully to introduce some of my closest friends to this incredible experience. read more

Step into the prohibition era when entering this old time speak easy. It just has that feel here. The bar is just magnificent in itself. The lights are low and the music is softly in the back ground. Enjoy a small meal here, sliders, shrimp cocktail, mac'n'cheese... it's all good. The cocktails are nice and boozy, but not overpowering. Let's just say the barkeepers know what they are doing. So for an upscale speakeasy experience, this is the place to be. read more

The ambience has never changed, which is the part. I love the most. When you walk in the door, you know you are at one of the oldest establishments in Indianapolis. The food is phenomenal yet slightly limited in the lounge area. But if you go downstairs to the main restaurant, Saint Elmo, you can have the full menu with a full array of smells coming straight from the kitchen. The service is great and it's a place I keep coming over and over again. It is in my top five places to eat in Indianapolis area. read more

We had a little difficulty finding the place (it is above St Elmo!) but it was worth the search. We were dressed for an event and wanted to do something special and 1933 was the perfect spot. The place is gorgeous. Every single thing is beautiful. We loved learning about the history in the bar menu. Ladies-go check the bathroom The drinks. OMG the drinks. The St Elmo Cola was fantastic. The lemon drop was perfectly balanced and refreshing. The service was the best we experienced in our visit. We loved the stop. read more

1933 Lounge - St Elmo Cola (AHHH-mazing) and Lemondrop (also soooo good) - Lounges Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

This is the bar above St Elmo's and Harry & Izzy's. There's a separate exterior door you can use to go directly upstairs. Once upstairs, you see that this is one of the most popular after-work watering holes in town. The place was packed on Wednesday at 5:30 PM. It probably didn't help that Devour Indy was going on this week. I managed to snag a spot at the bar after asking the very nice bartender if skmeone was sitting at an empty barstool (she booted someone who had left his coat on the back of the chair but was wandering around chatting with people). Happy hour drinks were we'll-priced and there is a large selection of eligible items. read more

Were there on Saturday evening around 730pm & the place was SLAMMED with people! We did manage to find a table within about 10 minutes of arriving, and in the meantime a nice couple offered us the chairs opposite of them in front of the fireplace. We ordered a few cocktails, the filet sliders w/ mac & cheese, their amazing shrimp cocktail, chicken wing lollipops, and bourbon cake. Although they were super busy, the server did a terrific job of getting our orders taken quickly and checking on us frequently. Our drinks & food came out pretty quickly, & everything was delicious - as expected! An unexpected favorite was the chicken lollipops. I didn't really know what to expect, but they were nicely charred, the meat was flavorful and tender, and the sauce was delicious. I could have eaten two orders of these because they were that tasty. The other star of the meal (aside from the delicious cocktails) was that bourbon cake. It was warm and only slightly sweet, which was a nice contrast to the vanilla ice cream. All the other diners packed into those tiny rooms were obviously enjoying themselves and it was a nice vibe. Everyone was so polite and pleasant, which is exactly what one hopes for but doesn't always get with crowded places. Once again, a fantastic meal and experience at St Elmo's!!! read more

Beautiful atmosphere and amazing food! Everything was done perfectly and allergy issue was taken and then the manager came over to make sure as well. I'll say although everything was perfectly done the service really didn't shine once we got seated. Our waitress had 2 other tables which were 2 and 4 people. We were also a table if 4. The restaurant wasn't packed as it was 2 pm. She wasn't attentive. It started with our devour menu. She went to make sure we could order dinner and didnt come back for almost 10 minutes. Then she didn't bring us the menus so we waited another 5 for her to remember that part. Our drinks took about 10 more minutes. Mind you even the bar had no one yet and yes it's the bartender at that point. Left a sour taste in our visit from almost the beginning. During devour you'd think everything shined but she had us distracted. In all I definitely recommend this restaurant. It's beautiful and above board with their food. The service just needs to shine as much as the rest of it did read more

I've here before but it's been a while. Came with my mom and uncle from out of town for a couple of drinks and lil bites to eat. - Ambiance: Nice and laid back. Interior is nice with a speakeasy flare. Music is set at a good volume. If you get cold easily I'd suggest bringing a light jacket - Server: I came dressed in leggings and an anime t-shirt and our server treated us just the same as some upscale patrons that come dressed in suites. Abbie was our server and she was a delight and someone I'd look for just for her vibes alone! She held great conversation as long as you kept it real and acted humble. Love her tbh. Suggested the espresso martini with tequila and it was chefs kiss I would come again. Drinks have a good kick to them in the $10-$17 dollar range but honestly worth it. I believe they do have a happy hour, just haven't had the pleasure to make it to one yet. read more

This is a great hidden gem in the heart of downtown Indianapolis right above the iconic St. Elmo's. 1933 lounge serves a menu of smaller plates and appetizers, including the world famous st Elmo's shrimp cocktail! There is also a full bar with a great list of signature drinks and generous pours from their whiskey list. Would recommend this to anyone looking for a classy environment with great ambiance, food, and service! Can get a table or take a seat at the bar! read more

We had such a fun happy hour at 1933 Lounge. The vibes were dark but cozy, as we chose to sit in the room off the bar outfitted with leather couches and chairs. One of our friends said we must try the shrimp cocktail here because it's a famous Indy staple & that the cocktail sauce/horseradish mix would really clear our sinuses out. The shrimp cocktail comes with 4 large shrimp & we each tried one - delicious. We also split the warm spinach dip & it came with ample chips which is always a plus. The spinach dip was $10 on happy hour & was a surprising amount of food which filled us all up. The bartender was attentive & helped us scope out the happy hour deals. Overall great experience & we will be back in the future. read more

Wasn't able to get into St Elmo but learned about their upstairs speakeasy bar and was able to get in within about 15 minutes. Does not obviously have the same menu but does have some of their awesome appetizer items like their famous cocktail which is a must Awesome spot with a nice dim vibe Had a Great old fashion as well as the shrimp cocktail which is just so good The ambiance and service were great and I will definitely come back for a drink when I'm town. Recommend checking this place out if you are in town read more

Awesome hospitality from Caylan, Frank and Brynn! Had been excited to visit 1933 and St Elmo's for years and was even better than I expected. Amazing spaces, everyone was so friendly and best shrimp cocktail I've ever had. Loved the Flirting with Fire cocktail too - really cool combination of bourbon and mezcal. Will definitely go back again and highly recommend! read more

Loved it but thought the seating needed updating. A lot of old mismatched tables and chairs. Hard to get around and sit. Some nice leather booths would work. read more

Nice place. Food and service are terrific. Ambiance is positive. Would definitely go back.

The Wagyu sliders are an addiction. They have consistently provided quality drinks no matter what I ask, so that speaks to high bartender standards. Servers are always so attentive no matter how packed ( it was super packed last time I went). 4 stars only- because they don't let you order fries downstairs and combine with your sliders when they bring them upstairs lol....all of the food is coming from downstairs ... wtf not lol? Very cool place to have a Lowkey happy hour meetup, date, etc. read more

This speakeasy is a cool find with good drinks and a great vibe. The service was okay but it was packed, thought my husband I were able to get seats at the bar. The spinach artichoke dip is to die for, the Pinot Grigio smooth (and reasonably priced) and my husband like his mule (but not the old fashioned which he said was a bit syrupy). Definitely swing by here for after dinner drinks or happy hour. read more

I walked into this place after reading some really great yelp reviews. And it did not disappoint. It's attached to Saint Elmo's steakhouse. In fact, I think the kitchen is Saint Elmo steakhouse. The lounge has moody vibes; a fireplace and dim lighting, it's a perfect place to hang out with a significant other, a girlfriend, or even just yourself. I am not a mac & cheese kind of girl at all. In fact I can count on the fingers of one hand the amount of times I've eaten mac & cheese in my life. But somehow that evening I needed something comforting. So I ordered the two slider dish which came with a side of mac & cheese, and i am so glad I indulged and got the king crab topping. The Wagyu beef and brie slider was ridiculously tender, and the contrast of the brie with the tender beef made for a really flawless, gastronomic experience. You almost didn't need to chew. The filet mignon bite was really fantastic as well. The sauces/dips were completely unnecessary -- tasty, but not needed. The mac & cheese, well, let me just say that I finished Every. Last. Bite. Not overly goopy, cheesy. A perfect, al dente, pasta, a really great combination of cheeses, and the ocean-tasting king crab made for a really great contrast and added an excellent textural element as well. I chose a cocktail called The Last Word - Citadel Gin by Journeyman, Chartreuse Verte, Luxardo Maraschino liqueur and lime, and it did not disappoint. Strong, we'll balanced and dangerously delicious. And finally I rounded out this incredible meal with a Madagascar bourbon Brown Butter Cake with a caramel sauce drizzle and Madagascar vanilla bean ice cream. This meal was so off brand for me. I never order pasta or dairy based foods, and I don't usually like cake. But, I'm glad I took a chance. It was a most wonderful meal and I really enjoyed sitting by the fireplace reading my book, sipping on a delicious cocktail and enjoying the atmosphere. read more

I had only been in 1933 for cocktails and a snack but we decided to go before a Colts home game. The atmosphere is outstanding cool seating areas throughout the packed space. Our server was outstanding. She took our orders quickly and got us in and out with plenty of time to get to the stadium. Of course, we started with shrimp cocktail and then all of us enjoyed several of their sliders, fries, and the crab mac & cheese. High-quality. read more

The gold standard for all other bars. The shrimp cocktail is the same one as in St. Elmo's and is the one thing you must get if you go to Indy. The Lobster Mac and Cheese is the beautiful cherry on top. The place was like a smokey speakeasy that us mere mortal would not be cool enough to be invited in to, but somehow we snuck in. read more

On top os St. Elmos Steakhouse, there is a swanky little bar. Menu is a reduced version or variation of what is downstairs. Windows have been shaded out but not to the point where it is not warm inside. Probably due to the amount of woodwork and properly placed artwotk on the walls. Service is outstanding and a testament that folks can work in the same place in the service industry for years. read more

Upstairs area is perfect for happy hour, great cocktail menu, service good, ambience great for conversation and 1:1 meeting.

Very Classy! Loved the ambience! Great drinks & delicious food! Will be back! Upstairs from St Elmo's.

I enjoy the food here. I really like the fishers district locations because of the outside seating. That whole area is really cute and its nice to sit outside while you're eating good food. read more

1933 is probably one of my favorite spots in Indy. The food is always great and the service is always better. We stopped in on New Year's Eve at the downtown location. We grabbed comfy seats by the fireplace and dined on appetizers as well as cocktails. If you're in the downtown in the area you have to give 1933 a try, you won't be disappointed! read more

After my stellar experience at 1933 in Fishers, my family (5 total) decided to get together to celebrate my sister & I's birthdays at the Lounge downtown. We didn't realize that this wouldn't be the same environment/dinner experience considering they only serve appetizers & drinks in this more bar type atmosphere. After we waited about 15-20 minutes for a few tables (because they are small) and could get seated, we ended up having a good time. Food, although smaller portions, was excellent as always! Service was a bit slower, but to be expected in a very busy bar. We know to better prepare next time! read more

First time to 1933 and I've never been to St.Elmo's. We stopped in before a colts game and I'm so glad we got there earlier because the lounge was jam packed!! People were standing everywhere but we managed to snag a table. The environment is sophisticated with dark lighting and an older, historic feel. Our waitress was great! We started with just one shrimp cocktail... it was so good we got another, but then we got just one filet slider... and that was also so good we had to get another! The shrimp cocktail is a staple and must get here. I swear the filet sliders melted in my mouth... they're simple but absolutely perfect. We had a few drinks too which were all great. We regularly rave about our time here and will for sure be back!! read more

1933 Lounge - "World Famous" St. Elmo Shrimp Cocktail - Lounges Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Stopped here on a whim after a movie for food and drinks. It was late night and there are not a lot of food places open in downtown Indy late (unfortunately). We sat at the bar since the restaurant was completely booked plus there was immediate open seating (at the bar). While they do have a few more additional food options than the St Elmo side; the menu for me still lacks. I will say I enjoyed my St Elmo Coke, and the tequila based drink the bar tender whipped up was on point. They definitely know how to make a great drink here and you won't be disappointed. However if you're starving unless you're a solid steak eater, this is not the place for you. read more

Located above the famous St. Elmo's steakhouse downtown on Illinois St. The original 1933 lounge is just a staircase above and gives a totally different vibe than the steakhouse below IMO. I's low lit with leather loungers, a huge wood bar and mantle with pub tables and private seating areas. The drinks aren't cheap but it's worth a visit if you like the look and feel of 1960's lounges. We tried the Journeyman Manhattan, Pop's Old Fashioned, a Chocolate Martini and a Blue basil spritz. The bar upstairs operates independently from the steakhouse bar. They make their cocktails strong upstairs. I certainly got my money's worth for my cocktail. The service was not quick and we had to wait for our drinks after we got the text message for our reservation but they waitress was friendly. If you plan on checking the place out and dining downstairs, make sure you plan for about an hour for a cocktail. We didn't have time to drink any of ours and had to carefully carry them down the stairs and through the crowd to get to pur table. read more

1933 Lounge is the awesome and overlooked middle child of the Saint Elmo's family. Harry and Izzy's gets a lot of love as the cool younger child, Saint Elmo's is the older sibling that matured years ago and sadly, Burger Study is no longer with us. Everyone seems to forget about the cool middle child, the 1933 Lounge! Old school service & decor, speakeasy like staircase, simple menu. Everything you want for a chill evening. The abridged bar food menu has all the essentials, and is a great sub for a full meal downstairs. If you want beef, the sliders are a solid value & come with Mac for $15! The calamari is always a good choice for $14. Your money goes a long way upstairs. read more

We were in town for the weekend for the Colts/Patriots game. My friend had never been to St Elmo's before - so we had to stop in to get the famous shrimp cocktail. When we walked into St. Elmo's around 6pm on Friday they did not have two bar seats available. However the hostess told us that if we were just wanting shrimp cocktails & drinks we should head upstairs to the Lounge (which I did not know they had). We walked up stairs & found to seats at the bar. The bartender was just cleaning off the bar top from another couple who had just gotten up. So we were able to grab the two seats at the bar. There was other seating available on couches and large tables which would be perfect for larger parties. The atmosphere of the Lounge is way more laid back than downstairs in the restaurant area of St Elmo's. The bartenders were friendly, service-oriented, & just absolutely great! We were planning on having dinner in Fountain Square but we ended up befriending the couple next to us and talked to them for most of the night. Everything we had to eat was excellent. We will definitely be back. read more
