We ate lunch 6/10/26 at restaurant building of Mug & Bun & were immediately greeted by Amber, who…read morerecognized us as regulars 2 or 3 times a year for several years ( wish it was more often) . Amber is just like the delicious food, all American & the BEST. BEST coneys with shredded cheese, BEST onion rings, BEST chili cheese fries, BEST breaded tenderloin & Best cold mug of Root Beer. No reason to go to any other drive in when Mug &Bun has the perfect all American food . If you haven't eaten there, you're missing out on a great experience. And it's a flashback in time to a real drive in & restaurant with hometown nostalgia decor, friendliness & unmatchable Americana meals . Love it .

I know I maybe hated on for this review but I have to do it…read more Yes , Mug n Bun is a part of Indianapolis history and yes, 20 years ago, it was amazing. However, I had family come from California who wanted to have a good tenderloin, and I talked to people and everybody said, take them to mug n bun, you know, it's classic, great tenderloin, fun vibe. I regret the decision of going. My teenage nephew, said one word after 2 bites of his burger, and it summed up our entire experience,bleak. BLEAK summed up every bite of greasy, flavorless, cold food we tried. The root beer had no taste and the very expensive milkshake had no flavor and flet like just whipped ice cream. The ONLY good thing was our server, Jennifer. She was busting her butt to server everyone and trying to stay up beat in the heat.

While I've never actually been to the store front, I do want to rave about their catering/delivery…read moreservices! We frequently order from here for work events and they food is always on-time, set-up for us, and gets great reviews from the guests. The cookies and brownies especially are a favorite (and the vegetarian options too!). It is a little more pricey, but the sandwiches are a higher quality than the ones from Panera (or at least, that's our opinion).

I'm not a deli kind of guy…read more But, there's just something about Shapiro's that makes me smile. I'm a lifelong hoosier, and I've always had times when I simply needed to go to Shapiro's. I've shared,quite often, of my deep appreciation for the Shapiro's response when I had accessibility concerns about their Fashion Mall location. They did a remarkably beautiful job of responding well, adapting, and yet also honoring their own business needs. The end result became a more accessible layout that was still customer friendly for everyone. I will always appreciate that response and should their praises. But, there's something special about this location. It's the look. It's the feel. It's the vibe. It's just everything. A little bit of Shapiro's history - you can trace the Shapiro family back to 1795 Ukraine. Louis and Rebecca Shapiro landed stateside in 1905; within a couple years opening a small grocery/deli. In 1925, they leaned into their cultural and faith roots after the election of Ed Jackson as governor (Jackson was a well-known Klan member). They added the word "kosher" to their building and a Star of David. (As someone who's traveled over 7,000 miles by wheelchair, I love a good act of subtle rebellion). They more and more leaned into their cafe routes, and in 1984 added a second location on the northwestside. I probably frequented this location the most since I went to Pike High School. As we all know, that location eventually closed. Fashion Mall lasted about five years. There was a Carmel spot, too. But, for me, it always comes down to this location. It's warm. It's friendly. The food is a premium deli experience. I love the meatloaf (like seriously). They have breakfast, they have a ton of baked good options (cakes, cookies, others), soups, salads, hot deli, cold deli, sandwiches, entrees, and a whole lot more. I love the baked goods. I love the fried chicken. Is it a bit pricey? Yep. You also get enough for at least a couple meals (if you can truly hold out that long). Accessibility is solid here. I've already talked about their attention to that kind of detail. It's real AND it's sincere. Strangely enough, I've never had the Reuben here. It's one of their acclaimed sandwiches, but there's always something else I want more. While you can spend a fair amount here, you can also eat here pretty modestly. Shapiro's, at least for me, is one of those places that defines Indy. I'd likely weep if they ever left our city. Good food. Great family. Wonderful location. Fair pricing. Accessible. Quite honestly, it's just about everything I want a restaurant to be.

Good luck stopping in here for just one item. I tried the croissant cinnamon roll, cheese Danish,…read moreand a sub they had (I forget what was on it!), and every single thing tasted fresh. The croissant cinnamon roll was buttery, flaky, and perfectly glazed, while the Danish had a rich, creamy filling without being overly sweet. Don't sleep on the sandwiches either because the bread alone is worth the trip. The Stutz location is bright, cute, and there's great outdoor seating scattered around. The staff was friendly and helpful, and everything in the pastry case looked as good as it tasted. I have an allergy and they were able to easily answer questions. My only advice is if you want a specific pastry you should go early. The best items sell out fast, and for good reason. Easy 5 stars.

This has to be by far the largest Amelia's location. The selection though mirrors the other stores…read moreand it is delicious. I come mostly for the breads and the cinnamon rolls made from croissant dough. I do have to say I preferred the 'old' way these were made which was with a lot less icing. But I get that the change was probably done on request as folks generally prefer the extra sweet things here. Don't get me wrong, I will still continue to devour my fair share of these delicious works of art. And you cannot go wrong with the bread around here. I tend to freeze quite a bit of it since I don't live near an Amelia's. I have to say it does freeze well, especially if you toast it a little after thawing it.

I've had Brickyard Crossing Smokehouse bookmarked forever! Why have I waited so long to visit this…read moredelightful restaurant a mile and a half from my home? No longer! We'll be back soon to sample more of the menu option and take advantage of the beautiful view from the deck. First, know you DO NOT have to pay track admission at any time, including race days (the 500 & 400), to dine at the restaurant. Just inform the yellow shirts (there during races) as you enter off 16th Street you're there to dine at the Smokehouse. They'll wave you right in. Their regular hours are 11 a.m. - 7:00 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday. However, they opened Sunday from 11-5 for the Brickyard 400 fans. Free parking is conveniently located in front of the restaurant. The Flag Room (over 21 only) is just off the lobby to the left and tastefully decorated in black and white race decor with a 60's feel. Slightly dated decor in the venue section of the building but it's coming back! The Flag Room has bar seating or 4-top tables with windows overlooking the back of turn 2 of the track. There was another dining area inside for under 21 patrons when we visited. Not sure if that area is always an option. As we entered the Flag Room our server asked if we'd prefer to sit on the deck. Yes, of course, on this beautiful fall day. And thank you for asking!! We could see both the jumbotron at IMS, hear the cars right next door and enjoy the players on the golf course all while sitting on the deck. On normal, non-racing days it's very peaceful and quiet. The deck is a large, family friendly, three tier deck overlooking the stunning Brickyard Crossing Golf Course. Room for families, friends or co-workers after work or a quiet table for two. The menu is larger than I expected. Simple two-sided menu with starters on one side and main courses on the other. A few of the appetizers are BBQ pulled nachos, smoked chicken wings, loaded fries, Smokehouse chili and three salads (Caesar, chef, tex-mex). Main courses are mostly sandwiches such as pulled pork hoagies, beef brisket, turkey bacon club, burger, tenderloin, chicken, smoked brisket tacos, house smoked baby back ribs and a veggie wrap. My husband ordered the Brisket sandwich which was not only a delicious sandwich but a good value for the price. It was served with yummy, thick, homemade chips finished off with their own in-house seasoning. Quite tasty and I ususally don't care for thick chips. I ordered a cup of the Smokehouse Chili with cheese and onion. I enjoyed the meaty, tomato based chili. For my entree I had the flavorful pulled pork hoagie served with excellent lightly battered fries. Again, it was a generous portion of pulled pork with a smokey sauce that had just a touch of sweetness. Most sauces are to sweet for me but I really enjoyed this one. The fries were amazing with a light batter, golden brown and seasoned well. Our server, Alicia I think, was attentive, very personable and friendly. Our drinks remained full, our tasty food arrived quickly and the prices are reasonable for the portion sizes. Stop by for lunch or dinner and definitely take advantage of the deck before winter arrives.

I was pleasantly surprised. They prices were not outlandish and the portions were large (I had to…read moreleave some behind and if you knew me that is, wow) And the food was Outstanding. I had a Brisket n Pulled pork samich (called the double) and a side of bacon Mac n cheese. Have to say this was one of the better Mac n Cheese I have had anywhere. The Sam. Was really good very tasty. Whoever mans the BBQ deserves a raise!! Piled high with fries it was to much for this big boy to finish. The only down side is in a pro shop. Make a point to check it out.

If I would change on thing, I might put less peach jam or add more prosciutto so its not sweet on sweet. Service was great and the ambiance is bright and welcoming. You can sit at a table and dine in and there's additional high top seating against the wall. Will stop in again soon and try their coffee drinks.

It's been about a year or so since Borage first opened and I finally got around to trying it out…read more First off, I love the vibes in here. It's giving cute, cozy, sunny brunch vibes. My boyfriend and I came on Mother's day (unintentionally) and we waited about 10-15 minutes to sit at the bar. Getting our orders taken & our food served definitely took a bit of time, but we enjoyed seeing all the cooks in action and getting to smell all the amazing smells!! I got Grandpa's one pan skillet and my boyfriend got the sausage breakfast sandwich on croissant bread. All I gotta say is those chefs definitely knew what they were doing! The flavors were unique and intentional and I enjoyed every bite. The home fries (potatoes) were also so yummy and everything was cooked really well. There's nothing basic about borage and I love that! This place is a gem. They also have a cafe/market area where you can order drinks and pastries. I wish we waited until we got seated to order drinks because the menu was much more extensive than what I saw in the cafe and I would have ordered a different drink had I seen all the other options. The staff here are also very welcoming and friendly. We enjoyed our little brunch and will be back with family next time!

Why have a huge sign that says "half off milkshakes on Saturdays and Sundays" and decor center around sandwiches and milkshakes ("order your shake now!"

Also, I love spicy food but I strongly discourage getting the "hot peppers" on the sandwich when it's made. They come in an oil or something and because capsaicin (the molecule that you taste as "hot") is water soluble, it hits you so hard and makes the sandwich WAY too spicy. Instead you should get them on the side and put one on each of the bites you want, as you eat the sandwich. You'll thank me later. Also, don't go to this location between noon and 1. They are just way too busy
