    Slice options.  Two "specialties" along with a sausage and pepperoni
    Jodi K.

    Came here for lunch and arrived right at 11 when opening. Everything was so fresh! I was slightly shocked there wasn't plain cheese but maybe it wasn't ready yet since we arrived so early. Lunch prices are great. You can buy by the slice. $3 for "basic" type slices. $2.50 for salads. Unfortunately they no longer offer the garlic cheese bread for lunch that they did a few years ago but you can still order from the regular menu! Service was quick. Efficient. Empty but got busier around 12:30. You're given trays and can leave on table once done. Place was clean & Workers were friendly.

    We love this location as much as Broadripple and Carmel. All very consistent with great service and food. We enjoyed a tomato mozzarella salad and Greek salad before the pizza. Our server was a little overwhelmed at the time so we didn't get our salads until just before the pizza but it was still delish. The Mass Ave location has a great patio and lots of dining areas. Always comfortable no matter the party size.

    Great bar

    We come here every year and get the party room during a large convention in town. The service and food are always amazing. All the different pizzas are delicious and the bar has a good selection of drinks. They really go above and beyond to make our group feel special. We will definitely keep coming back.

    I have to laugh that my first review for this location of Bazbeaux, an Indy pizza icon since 1986, was actually my 300th Yelp review. Now, I'm over 1800 reviews and Yelp has become a huge part of my life. I was attending a nearby event related to Indy Shorts Film Festival and decided I wanted to visit Mass Avenue a bit once the event was over. This was early afternoon. After looking around a bit, I opted for a long-awaited return to Bazbeaux. Of course, a lot has changed in this area in the last few years. Parking prices are up (way up), though it's pretty plentiful with nearby street parking (metered) and parking along Mass Avenue. You also have a couple nearby parking garage options. Finding an accessible spot is fairly easy - curb cuts remain solid in this area and there continue to be some (but not all) crosswalks with audio. As was true nine years ago, accessibility on Mass Avenue can be challenging. That said, I think it has improved. I entered Bazbeaux and immediately noticed some improvement right away. There are two sides - a dining side, a bar side (with tables), and an aisle you can use for carry-out. The interior is warm, calming, and surprisingly intimate. The bar area is a bit louder, it's a bar area after all, but it's still pretty quiet. Service here remains strong. The hostess offered the bar area or a booth. Tables are not all wheelchair friendly, however, there are quite a few accessible options. My server, Samuel, was friendly and attentive without being overwhelming. He paced my meal nicely - I ordered garlic bread, my usual unsweetened iced tea (I think they still serve Mighty Leaf - an unusual choice that I love). I ordered a small (10") pizza with one-topping (pepperoni). I lingered a little bit, though not excessively so like my last visit. This time around, I was alone and my meal time was more traditional. The prices were definitely higher than last time, however, what price isn't higher than nine years ago? They were on park with the market these days and I had no issues with it - I think my meal came in at about $19 for the pizza, garlic bread, and iced tea (and I did get my always desired refill). Bazbeaux is unique in that every location (Mass Ave, Broad Ripple, Carmel) is located along the Monon Trail. They all have outside dining options, as well. They serve beer and wine, sandwiches, pizza, and more. One thing I have to say - accessibility is improved. I was noticeably bothered by it the last time I was here. This time around, I was comfortable and could easily function (I did not try the bathroom). While I could still see it being a bit difficult when packed, I arrived at an ideal time and was quite comfortable. The food was good, the service was very good, the prices were fair, and the atmosphere was nice and peaceful after a busy morning event. It really hit the spot. So, yeah. Last time around, I gave Bazbeaux a 3-star review. This time, I'm forking over that 4th star.

    veggie stromboli
    Erin D.

    they called this open faced pizza sandwich a stromboli. ordered not knowing it wouldn't even fit the definition of a stromboli and got no warning that it wasn't a typical version. didn't even finish one piece. only not one star because my partner liked his pizza

    Garden pizza (subbed/added eggplant, pepperoncini and goat cheese instead of green peppers, red onions and ricotta)
    Elle E.

    Always hits the spot when I'm in Indy! Pro tip: Wednesday night is half off bottles of wine, which is a bonus. Bartender is always patient with my adaptations to the Garden pizza. Also lets me sample the beer on draft to choose one I like best.

    Our half pizza
    Celeste M.

    Stopped in for a quick lunch on our way home to West Virginia from seeing the BINI Concert in Illinois. We ordered a half pepperoni, half veggie pizza, and both sides delivered. The pepperoni was crispy and flavorful, and the veggie side (spinach, green pepper, black olive, artichoke hearts, and tomato) was loaded with fresh toppings and not at all soggy -- just the way a veggie pizza should be. The Greek salad came with mixed greens, red onion, kalamata olives, tomato, and crumbled feta, all tied together with a tangy balsamic vinaigrette. Super fresh and a great way to balance out the pizza indulgence. And the real surprise? Blake's Mango Cider. Notes of mango, peach, and pineapple came through with every sip -- light, fruity, and dangerously easy to drink. It was so good I had to go back for a second glass. If you're looking for good pizza, crisp salad, and a refreshing drink to go with it, this place nails it.

    Not pictured is the fresh mozzarella plate that we got as our pre meal. Came with wayyy too much olive oil. Felt very wasteful. The mozzarella was good but the bread was hard to tear apart and the tomatoes were flavored a little too sweet. The garlic bread dipped in ranch was very good. For pizza, we got a 12" and split it between two specialty pizzas. We mixed between the Bazbeaux and the Mexican. We liked the Bazbeaux more. The Mexican did not have nearly as much flavor as we thought it would. This has a very relaxed vibe, almost like an upscale Pizza Hut. Lots of different flavors of pizza options.

    Sting Bee with sausage changed out with Genoa salami.

    There are so many options to choose from here. They have inside and patio seating. The service was a bit slow on the patio with it getting later in the evening. It took a bit to place the order. However, once my parties order was placed the food was amazing! I tried the cider local to Indianapolis and it was also 10 out of 10. Clean bathrooms and would return again!

    Garlic bread with cheese
    John P.

    Great pizza place on Mass Ave. The server was very friendly. The restaurant has such a cool vibe. Perfect for this area of town. The prices were great for pizza of this quality. The pizza was amazing. By far, one of our favorite!! Crispy crust, flavorful sauce and the toppings were plentiful and really good. We started with the garlic cheese bread with marinara dipping sauce. Crispy crust and super soft with excellent cheese topping with a great cheese pull.

    A slice of pepperoni & jalapeño
    J E.

    I was in the area for business and actually headed somewhere else for lunch when I walked past Baxbeaux and I smelled the amazing smell of pizza being baked, so I went in. I wasn't sure what to expect when I went in, but I did read previous reviews that were very positive. Upon going in, I saw it was a walk-up counter where you can order a slice or whole pie, drink, sides, etc. They had several pizzas made they were pulling slices from, but they weren't re-heating them, just plating and providing. I opted for a slice of pepperoni with jalapeño and a drink. The pizza looked great, but the crust was cardboard hard and just as bland. The toppings tasted OK, but wasn't great. The temperature of the pizza slice was cool too. Very disappointing considering how popular this place seems to be. Maybe a fresh pizza pie would be better, but based on the taste and texture of this crust, I highly doubt it. Sorry, but I don't get the popularity of this place.

    Quattro Formaggio
    Marissa J.

    Bazbeaux pizza was some pretty dang good pizza. Quattro Formaggio with hot honey and it was really delicious. Pretty good beer selection also. Our server was awesome. I didn't catch his name but he was really great. The restaurant reminds me of an old hole in the wall pizza spot. Really great and must have!

    Amazing sauce
    Amanda W.

    I hadn't been here since middle school and my hubby had never been here so we were downtown and decided to stop in. It was in between lunch and dinner so that was a perfect time to visit as they were busy so everything came out super fast and were top notch as was the service. It was very quiet and nice to have a good conversation. We didn't realize they have a beer and wine menu so we will keep that in mind for next time. The menu wasn't overwhelming it's simple and full of a variety of different pizzas and toppings. We started with the cheesy garlic bread and wow the tomato sauce that we opted to dip it in was amazing. Chunky, flavorful, and complimented the cheesy garlic goodness of the soft airy bread. Highly recommend giving this a try as a starter. The thing I love the most if you can pick 2 different pizzas and do a half and half so you get the best of both worlds so to speak. The crust was perfectly cooked and thin so you get the perfect balance of crust and toppings. It's not a heavy greasy pizza which is also a huge plus for me. We chose the Pizza Alla Quattro Formaggio and the Bayou chicken. The Alla wasn't your traditional Quattro formaggio but the chunks of ricotta was the best part. I do wish it had less mushrooms as I'm not a fan of them. But overall it was very cheesy and not heavy. Bayou chicken- the chicken had a great flavor and the toppings were cooked well and balanced and I loved the garlic cloves on it. Overall wonderful experience and would definitely recommend stopping in here.

    Walked in just to grab a slice and ended up staying for a full pie. That's how good the first bite was. Totally unplanned but worth it.

    Dope spot. The Google reviews are all about the beer, which is tremendous, but the pizza is great…read moretoo. I got a pepperoni and sausage pizza with hot honey and it was awesome. The pizza is kind of small though. It will fill two people or one person if you have portion control issues. They serve Narrow Gauge draft beer out of the St. Louis area and it is dynamite....a little pricey though. They had a barrel aged stout called Duality on draft and it was GREAT - one of the best beers that I've ever had and I don't usually like stouts. You can order cans or bottles of some of the beer to go. The bartender did an A+ job and she was delightful. I could have talked to her all day. There were five other people at the bar and all of these strangers just started talking to each other and becoming friends. It was pretty cool.

They have Narrow Gauge Brewery on tap, who apparently doesn't know how to make anything but good beer. I was in the mood for a dark brew and decided to try a few of their imperial stouts, all of which were delectable. First I had the Kofe and it was an aged coffee beer with a robust flavor at 12.5% ABV. Then I tried their guest tap called Hoplore and it would've pair well with a donut. Personally it was a little too sweet to think about having a full pint of but at 12.8% ABV it definitely had a wow factor to it. Finally I settled on the King Copra. This beer hit all the levels for me! I love anything with coconut, having it be 10.5% ABV was the icing on the cake. I can't wait to see what other wonderfully unique beers they have next time I visit.

    Fowling (noun) fowl-ing: The hunting or trapping of wildfowl…read more Google "fowling definition" and this is what you'll find. Google simply "fowling" and you learn about this odd sport where you combine football and bowling. Just now. Right NOW as I'm writing this, the word fowling finally made (sort of) sense. Football + bowling = fowling. Now I'm even pronouncing the word different with a long "o" sound versus the "ou" diphthong. I had to Google that, too, but once I saw diphthong, I knew it was going in my review. You're welcome for the 5th grade grammar lesson. Please redeem your Pizza Hut personal pan pizza for your hard work. Ok, fowling. It has nothing to do with trapping birds or teaching birds of prey to land on your arm (that's falconry). Nope, it's a game you play with friends and beer. The setup is more like cornhole, but you use bowling pins and throw, that's right, a football. Someone was clearly drunk when this game was invented. But what a great way to bring a group of people together! The Fowling Warehouse specializes in the game of fowling, but has several other activities to enjoy as a group: pool, darts, a few arcade games and a golf simulator. I may go back just for the golf simulator. This is the real deal, a full Trackman set up. It was pretty sweet. Those simulators can be a little intimidating at the PGA Superstore, but it's tucked away in the corner at the Fowling Warehouse where you can shank balls and not feel like a fool. Mostly. There are also two bars and you can order pizza and boneless wings. The bar has a nice selection of beers on tap. They use the magnet cup system where the cup fills from the bottom. My favorite thing was seeing multiple signs on the bar that warn you that if you push the bottom of the cup, you will get wet! And I smiled devilishly thinking about curious people testing their luck with the cups and losing every time. For me, I enjoyed a couple glasses of this blood orange IPA. Delicious and refreshing. The Fowling Warehouse isn't exactly my jam, but I think it's the kind of place that is perfect for a certain crowd who enjoys games and likes a new challenge. And they can handle a large party! If you are looking to try a new sport that feels like it was invented by someone who lost a bet, this place is for you! I kid, but the Warehouse is nice and clean and large! The service was good and everyone seemed to have a great time. Seems like a pretty good spot for your next party if games are your thing! Please note: No birds were injured during the writing of this review.

    Recently visited Fowling Warehouse for a work team building event. I had no idea what to expect…read more Parking was a bit of a mystery. There was a sign in front of the business pointing you to turn down a steer for parking; next block there is a huge parking lot but no signs saying you can park there for fowling, BUT, it was abundantly marked that cars will be towed. Since there was nothing else around, I assumed it was the right place and parked. Of course I briskly walked to fowling to inquire if I was in the correct space. I was, whew. Those towers can really work fast. Fowling is in a warehouse with other businesses, hence the name. It is huge. We were on lane 32, I believe so there's at least 32 lanes. There is also a corn hole area. There is a bar where they have a decent variety of adult beverages. I went with 3 Floyd's warpig, a hazy ipa. It was really good. The important aspect of fowling is not eating or drinking there, but to interact with the people your with. Sure you can win a game, but the fun is the game itself and the camaraderie with a drink. Our leader looked up the rules prior and explained them. You take turns throwing a football at bowling pins, one set of pins on each end of the lane. There are two lines to throw from, our group guys threw from back and women from front. I watched a group next to us, both men and women threw from front line, it didn't appear to give anyone an advantage. I don't know if the pizza place is part of fowling or a separate business, but we got pizza from Bonk Pizza. It was ok, it was enough to say we were fed. I'm glad I did this and would go again.
