A few years back I brought my son here for a few good steaks. My bill was over $150, and I could've made better steaks at home....not worth the money in my opinion. read more

First experience was very good. Potato skins were best I've had in ages. We split the prime rib. It was huge! Not as tender as I've had other places but maybe due to the size. We very tasty though. Deserts were delicious. Server was friendly and terrific. Will definitely go again and try the steaks. read more

Everything is amazing!! Food, service, atmosphere!! Thank you for the great experience, We will be back.

Great atmosphere with outstanding food. The service was impeccable as every dish was delivered with perfect spacing between courses. The shrimp cocktail was divine with just enough zing in the cocktail sauce. I had the homemade honey mustard dressing on my salad and it was the best dressing I've ever tasted. The onion soup was perfect with the warm bread provided The prime rib was delicious and as big as a roast while the filet was as tender as could be The lobster voodoo appetizer has to be tried its so good too read more

The first time we went to Bynum's we did so because Indianapolis Monthly had it written as one of those "hidden gems" and a steak house worthy of noting. We found it to be true. After not going to eat at Bynum's, due to COVID, my husband's craving for roast beef got the best of him. We were not disappointed. We shared the rib roast and added a salad for me. The meat was perfectly prepared and so very tender. The service was spot on and the quirky atmosphere was a pleasant change for normal "big time restaurants". The worst thing for us was not be able to "reserve" our rib roast as we had in the past. Driving to the southside from the northside is not an easy task with all the construction. Especially with my husband muttering, "why don't they let you reserve anymore". If they had run out of my husband's desire for big beef....well, let's leave it that reserving beef was an asset to the atmosphere of this steak house. They had the beef and it was delicious! read more

This place has the best Prime Rib steak. I had the most amazing shrimp cocktail with colossal shrimp. My prime rib was cooked to perfection, I couldn't ask for anything else. The customer service was out of this world. Someone is always walking around checking on tables. The ambiance was what to be expected. We are here to celebrate my birthday dinner and I have been looking forward to this all year. I love this place and if you haven't gone, GO... read more

This place is always consistently great when i come here. It's been here forever and you can't miss it with the big cattle statue outside. I feel like I can never shy away from the filet with the truffle butter, but they have steak, seafood, and chicken options on the menu. Nearly all the meals come with a salad/ soup app and they have great French onion! They always have a huge dessert selection after- so save room for that too. I've been here a lot recently, for different things, so I have uploaded all the pictures I've taken within the last few months! read more

I know this is a steak house and my surf and turf was fine. My fellow diner however, didn't want anything but, chicken fettuccine Alfredo. On the online menu it said it was $21 but, in reality it was $33! Who in the world charges $33 for a pasta dish? He didn't see anything else that he liked, on the menu,so he went ahead and ordered the fettuccine knowing how much I had been craving a filet and lobster tail. If I would have known about this egregious price I would have gone to a finer restaurant like Capri or Harry and Izzy's who had fettuccine more much less. The service was also disappointing. The server was almost rude. I had to ask her for water, she didn't go over the specials (as she did with other tables) I felt like she was just anxious to be rid of us but, at other tables she was chatty cathy. When we sat down the table was very sticky and when I asked the bus girl to please wipe it down she gave us an attitude. I haven't been to Bynums in years and now I know why. It was a very mediocre and disappointing meal. Again, $33 for chicken fettuccine Alfredo?! Really? read more

went bynums located at 3850 s meridian street, saturday oct 4, 2025 for our cousins 60th bday party he reserved the banquet room let me start by saying the prices are ridiculous, secondly my husbandhad to send his ribs back and order something else which was not any better, the ribs had no flavor and the steak he orderd he stated medium rare it came back so extra dry. secondly when it was time to pay then took my credit card and came back 30 mins later the service was terrible. i would not recommend this place read more

Our new go to steak restaurant in the city. Very causal but the food was incredible. This was our first visit and I can't wait to go back! Again super casual but so happy to have a great steak without the sometimes overly stuffy atmosphere. I had read some past reviews of the service being short, rude or just not friendly but we had no experiences with that. our server was attentive and checked on us regularly. It was so reasonably priced, we spent around $200 but had 5 cocktails/ glasses of wine and desserts. Soup and salad are included with our entrees. Downtown we would have spent hundreds more for the amount of food and drinks. read more

Best meal I've had in a very long time. From the onion flower to the cheesecake I couldn't ask for better service or flavor. The steak was melt in your mouth fantastic. Well done! read more

The worst place ever. Over priced and mean! Just mean people. I will never ever go back. They smash there salads.

One if my favorite restaurants in Indy. Great food. Not pretentious. Casual atmosphere with high quality. Great combo.

This place is a GEM of Indianapolis. I have driven by it so many times to see the infamous cows outside, and finally got to find out what we were missing. The interior is so cozy and unique and doesn't even show any wear and tear from being open since 1989. The service was stellar! The wait staff seemed to work in tandem making the whole experience seamless. The FOOD was obviously the best part. From the stuffed tater tots, to the incredible ranch dressing, every bite was delicious. My husband and I both ordered the special - the creamy blue cheese topped filet, which melted in your mouth. It was SO GOOD. I could go back tonight for the same thing. Then we all decided to have dessert and the endless options looked amazing. The apple bread pudding and the cookie cake were stellar. Overall we couldn't stop talking about our experience and the food, and we can't wait to go back! read more

Service was good and the food wasn't bad, just ridiculously overpriced for what it was. Wouldn't go back for that reason.

Talk about a steakhouse. I saw the biggest portion of prime rib be served to others than ever before. It was unreal. The place is super homey and what you'd think of for an old school steakhouse (the three life size cows out front add a nice touch). Staff was friendly, Jess much more than the other servers. House wine reasonably priced at $20 a bottle and very good. My husband and I split the bone in rib eye, adding on the nibblers plate so we each got our own salad, soup, bread and side. The steak was phenomenal and my husband loved his loaded potato. Bread and salads were great as well, however soup was very salty. Overall we had a great experience. I'd highly recommend splitting entrees unless you really enjoy leftovers!! read more

ordered the ny strip steak and it was so tough it was not edible . I always thought as a child growing up they were supposed to be the best but was very disappointed! would not even make us another steak read more

Service was excellent and they were very attentive! Kept our drinks refilled. We had the sirloin for two but in reality three could eat off it. Perfectly prepared medium rare and nicely seasoned! Yum! read more

Almost feels like a hidden gem, tucked away in Indianapolis. Excellent service and very friendly staff. The food was exceptional! The prime rib could feed a family of 4, unless you're really hungry! Delicious! read more

Bynum's Steakhouse - The thickest, juiciest prime rib! - Steakhouses Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

We had dinner with a close friend last night who loves Bynum's and highly suggested we try them. We have dined at the Martinsville location years ago but never at the Greenwood location. There is a parking lot in front of the restaurant and it was cleared well from snow. As we entered the restaurant there was a small hallway and turn to get to the hostess stand. My friend asked for the closest table since she uses a walker. The hostess gave us an 8-top round table in a cubicle. It was a little close to the walls and made the chairs tight plus the size of table made it difficult for the three of us to share bread and appetizers. But it was the closest table to the entrance. We started with an Onion Flower and Shrimp Cocktail. The Onion Flower was large and would easily serve four as an appetizer. The Shrimp Cocktail had jumbo shrimp served with hot and tangy sauce. Both were tasty and good choices. The menu offers the ribeye, porterhouse, NY strip, prime rib, chopped steak, pork chops, BBQ ribs and accompaniments. We had the rib eye, filet and NY strip. All were cooked perfectly and were tender. The baked potatoes were tender and perfect with a salted skin, the salad was crisp and my blue cheese dressing was so flavorful. When our server brought out the dessert tray the decision was difficult. Many amazing flavors of cheesecakes, peach cobbler and bread pudding to select from. My friend had the white chocolate raspberry cheesecake which was the best of the three in my opinion. My husband had the death by chocolate cheesecake which was decadent. My peach cobbler was delicious but second choice after tasting the white chocolate raspberry cheesecake. We had a wonderful meal, our server was friendly and service was spot on. I enjoyed dinner, our meals were wonderful but certainly on the higher price end. read more

Prime rib was excellent and huge 32oz. My complaint is all the online menus showed price as $56-$58! We get there and it's $68!!!! All the beef was about $10 higher than what all the online menus show including yelp. Was so looking forward to it, went ahead and ordered it. Just really need to get the menus updated!!! read more

Whatta meal! Had the steak which came with soup, salad, and bread. Got free cheesecake as we were celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary - we will be back soon! read more

The food is always on point. I've never had a bad experience! The staff will go over and beyond and help you out. i'll definitely be back.

8pm reservation, on a Saturday night and they are out of prime rib:( Their "top shelf" margaritas were definitely not top shelf. The bynum bucket drink was fine. Iceberg lettuce as your salad, not appealing at all. Maybe invest in actual greens that have nutritional value. New york strip was big, but gritty and not cooked to the way my husband ordered...under cooked more medium rare then medium. I had the filet,11oz butterflied, under seasoned:( French fries were to thick, but plenty of cheese and crispy bacon ($3 more loaded) Over all, $112 is not worth it, texas roadhouse is much better than here, i came once, won't come back:( I guess if i want high end i have to stick to downtown restaurants. P.s....the server was very nice though her name was Bridget. read more

This is our very favorite place to have a nice dinner. It's not commercialize and family owned. Today my husband and I had the smothered prime ride with baked potato, salad & soup. The prime rib was spot on! Cooked to perfection. The French onion is a must have when coming to Bynum's and my I add that the homemade bleu cheese dressing is amazing! read more

Very nice romantic atmosphere. Very great stall. The food is delicious and plentiful.

Well, One of our favorite steak houses is not great any more.. After 5 visits to Bynums this year not one dinner has gone well.. On 2 separate occasions we & possibly others.. have been neglected/forgoten.. Sitting for up to 30 min w out our drink order. Getting our salad after people seated after us were finishing thier Steaks..?? Our reservation means very little as we were told we would be seated in 5 min this visit today & 6 tables were seated before us.!! A prior visit we waited 55 min past our reservation time... I hate to say it but every visit has been stressful. If you are in fact understaffed then Don't pack the restaurant.. Unfortunate.... read more

Came here for a birthday dinner. Wasn't sure what to expect at first. The service was good no frills food that was excellent and very tasty. The French onion was a tad salty but the Ribeye, salad, and loaded backed potato was all very tasty. I ordered medium and it was a lot closer to rare/blue but the flavor was fantastic and it was super tender and juicy. Definitely will make this a destination place I'd pick here over most high end steak houses in Indy. read more

It was an amazing meal, they cooked our food to perfection, and the services was absolutely great. We will definitely be coming back, The place has such a welcoming feel to it. By far one of the best prime rib and porterhouse we've had in a long time. Our girls enjoyed the steak burger and the Alfredo pasta. read more

The food is amazing! The Service s fantastic! Ambiance is soothing everything on the menu is some of the best food I've eaten anywhere on the south side!! The prices are coming to any other restaurant of that quality ! read more

3.5 stars. Food is pretty decent. The soup is so salty but in a good way. Drinks are reasonably priced, but for the decor of the place, the food is a little over priced. I think it would be better being named Bynums roadhouse read more

If you are looking for a great steak experience...you can't go wrong with Bynum's! Your surroundings When you walk in the lighting is dimmer (which is nice to give it a softer feel). The interior has an old world vibes...which is a nice if you are looking for a great steakhouse with a more casual feel to it. Staff We went during the busy time and had made reservations prior too...it took about 10 minutes to get seated due to having to clear and clean off a table. The waitress was hurried throughout the dining experience....went to ask for something extra that I needed when she asked how the food was, but didn't get a chance as she was on to the next table as soon as she asked and we nodded our heads. Food This is the highlight of this establishment...I ordered steak tips that night with saffron rice and the steak was very tender and blended well with the rice. Overall If you are looking for a casual steakhouse experience with the quality being on par with the higher end...this place is the place to go....as far as our server experience...every day is a new day:) read more

Always loved this place, great dirty martini and prime rib is a great choice - low key place, out of the way - also don't see to many " wannabe" rich folks here vs fishers/Geist! read more

Loaded potato burnt, no swiss cheese, bacon burnt on it too and still hard potato. Charged for gaic butter was unreasonable and no reduction on untasty food. $29.87 for burnt loaded potator, broccoli with mozzalli cheese instead of swiss onion soup poor too - just broth mix with mozzalli in bottom not placed melted on top of cup. How still in business a mystery. read more

After seeing some reviews and arriving to this lovely looking restaurant I had high hopes for a great steak dinner. I left tho feeling taken to the cleaners. The prices they are commanding for obviously a choice cut of beef are ridiculous. I ordered the Prime Rib and my wife ordered a Porterhouse. Both were chewy and lacking flavor. The highlight of the meal was the service which was very good. Beware tho, you will be paying for a prime cut of meat that is anything but. read more

I very much enjoyed my steak and shrimp. Salad was also very tasty. The warm fresh bread was delicious They did not skimp on the butter. I did not care much for the onion soup as I prefer my cheese floating on top with chunks of bread. Was very disappointed that they did not have a boneless ribeye. Very attentive the drinks were refilled very quickly. The chef came out of the kitchen and asked how everyone liked their steaks everyone was very happy. Looks to be a family business well run that values their client. Will visit again. read more

Amazing hometown place! The food was fantastic and the staff was very friendly and helpful
