Don't ask me what beef skewers, boba, karaoke and camping have in common, because I don't think there are any connections to be drawn here. However, despite everything, these things all come together nicely at Chill'n Camp Tea & BBQ. Are you like me and despise camping? Well, no worries. You won't need to squat in a hole in the ground, nor pick sand and flies out of your food and pretend you're having a good time at Chill'n Camp. This camping-themed restaurant doesn't have any of the stupid things about camping. Just cool, aesthetically pleasing camp-like things, all in an air-conditioned setting. So much better than camping! Does your dumb camp site have someone delivering roasted duck bao and black pepper spaghetti to your table? I didn't think so! Does your campsite have a corner where you can sing karaoke? That's what I thought. Therefore, it's obvious that Chill'n Camp is way better than camping. I'll need to come back and try the food here. My kid and I just stopped in for a boba drink. We got the Oreo Cake Milk Tea with boba. Keep in mind that they only have tapioca boba here -- no popping boba. My child really enjoyed the Oreo milk tea, though! He just wished it came with popping boba. Chill'n Camp is a place where you'll want to dine in, if you can. The atmosphere is what sets it apart. It's a camp-themed restaurant! There isn't anything else like this in Indianapolis. Chill'n Camp is like if Shelley Long and crew from Troop Beverly Hills joined forces with a Korean restaurant. I don't understand it completely, but it's a fun and family-friendly restaurant that you need to visit. read more

My friend and I went around 5pm on a Wednesday and there was no wait to be seated. We were both greeted and offered beverages to try if we wanted. We ordered the beef kebab sticks, cauliflower kebabs and the bulgogi steak. They ask you what spice level you would prefer. My friend asked for spicy and I asked for mild. Our meal arrived at perfect temperature. The food had amazing flavor and I am excited to go back and try new items. I look forward to bringing others to try this delicious spot. The inside looks like you're at a camp site. Very clean inside. read more

First time in here. I came with a group. Service was great especially waiting on a group of people. Place was clean. I ordered the rock shrimp, enoki mushrooms, and the scallion pancake. I loved the rock shrimp dish, the shrimp was crispy and the sauce over it was divine. The enoki mushrooms were bland and got cold very quickly and then they were worse. The scallion pancake was a grease bomb. I don't know if they just had old grease or what. It was worth trying once and the service was excellent. No cocktails here is also another deterrent for me. If you want to try it definitely order the rock shrimp app, if you like a sweet (mayo?) based sauce. read more

Looks like any other strip mall joint from the outside, but when you step inside you will find yourself in such a cute camping themed restaurant. Canvas tents, coolers, lanterns, greenery, lamps the look like the moon... very nicely done. Then you see the menu and it is heavily Asian and it's a bit surprising because stereotypically you do not think of Asian food when camping... or is it just me. So I was afraid that this would be just another gimmick, BUT wait till you taste this food. OMG, it is delicious. There were only 3 of us today and so we shared some of our food with each other. The scallion pancake as super delicious. Beautifully arranged almost like a fan on a round black plate. Stunning. Even better was the taste. The pancake itself had a little crisp on the outside and was light and tender on the inside. The taste of it was even more enhanced by the dipping sauce which was served with it. I will east this again for sure. I ordered the rock shrimp and these put other similar dishes at other restaurants to shame I must admit. You get 6 big shrimp which are coated and then deep fried until they are golden and crisp on the outside, but not chewy and overdone on the inside. These are done perfectly and served stacked on a nice plate and doused with a delicious sauce... Sort of like a bang bang sauce... yummy. I will get these every single time I visit here. We also had several skewers, my favorite were the shrimp and the lamb skewers. The cauliflower were pretty good, however the Portuguese sausages were only ok in my opinion. One of my guests also ordered the squid balls appetizer and loved it. I don't eat such things, so I'll have to take his word for it. All of us took home the dry chili noodles. I wasn't overly impressed with those. Don't get me wrong, they are good, but I am a snob when it comes to food, so I will try something else next visit. In summation: the food is great and beautifully presented, the restaurant's decor is so cute and Instagramable, the prices are quite reasonable, service is friendly and accommodating and there is free parking out front. Really what more could we ask for. read more

Was not sure what to order, but have been wanting to try this place for some time. I ordered the beef skewers, (DELICIOUS!) They were seasoned very well, but a bit hard to get off the stick. I would FOR SURE order these again. The Scallion Pancake got ordered since it was marked as a "popular item" on the menu. It was flakey crunchy and fantastic! I also ordered the jumbo shrimp skewer, they were seasoned very well and I would also order this again when I go back! For my "main" I chose the Roast Duck Bao Bun, it was flavorful and fresh and the sauce was sweet and really good. I can't wait to go back and try some of the more non mainstream items perhaps, such as the grilled oysters or fish tofu! The atmosphere is clearly the highlight of most reviews and yes it is cute, but the food is just as good IMO. read more

Okay. This place is so cute and fun. If your kiddos have a solid palette this would be a great family night out. I had the Korean sweet & spicy wings, scallion pancake and the braise beef bao bun. Everything was delicious and fresh. The bao bun and scallion pancakes were my fav. I loved the wings came only as flats(yes. I'm that girlie) but wasn't super impressed by the sauce. I will definitely be back. read more

The ladies in my life suggested Chill'n Camp for lunch today. We drove across town to East 82nd Street to start our lunch adventure. I'll start the actual review by saying, I wanted it to be better than it was. The theme of the restaurant is a camping type theme while serving Asian fusion type food. I had the Teriyaki chicken over rice, which while well priced and being an adequate sized serving, it just needed to be better. It was a grilled chicken breast over rice with a pan seared egg with some sweet chili sauce. (Not sure what was Teriyaki about it). Another of my dining partners got the Steak Bulogi over rice with a pan seared egg. The meat lacked flavor and there was no sauce at all. Again, it just needed to be better. The last member of our party had their interpretation of white meat General Tso's chicken over rice. The dish was a battered chicken again with the same/similar sweet chili sauce. I'll say it again about this dish, it wanted to be better. Finally the appetizer we ordered which was the sweet and spicy Korean wings arrived after we had eaten our entrees. The meat to batter ratio was off as they were too heavily battered. The sweet spicy sauce was OK. A couple of the wings didn't seem fully cooked. Again, I'll say it. These should have been better. Regarding the service, I'll boil it down to "it should have been much better". I'm told the ladies restroom had no toilet paper... Should have been better... The theme of camping fits because like most camping trips, it didn't live up to the hype and the idea of it was better than the execution. read more

Very cute atmosphere but the chairs very uncomfortable. Chairs don't slide well so watch your knees when you pull yourself into the table because those also have an issue. Tables are metal and crossbars are directly at your knees .... Ouch! Duck noodle soup was excellent but very little duck for the price. Wonderful authentic broth though. Beef skewers were full of flavor but a little tough for my taste. Beef Bulgogi with rice was good (better at dedicated Korean restaurants). Korean wings were just ok (the dedicated Korean wing places nearby are much better). The waiter we had never checked on us after serving us and the waitress got our bill and togo box. They had 4 tables so it was unfortunate. Overall cute atmosphere and will return for the other soup noodle dishes and give them a try. read more

My sister found this place on Instagram actually and we were out anyway so me and my mom dropped by. OH MY GOSH you step inside and already get the camping vibe. Their menu is so haha well the variety is awesome as well as the drink menu. To start off we got the Takoyaki the calamari. To describe it, it's kind off like a calamari fritter and to drink I got the Brown Sugar Oreo Boba Milk. All excellent! Next we shove to try a little but if everything; lamb, Fish Tofu, Jumbo Shrimp, Enoki Mushroom and cauliflower. Oh my Josh SO good! Almost forget the owner is what she must've been was SO nice! I don't know why we were the only ones there. I'm telling everyone about Chill N Camp! read more

Ambiance: cute themed camp site and it looks like they do Karaoke there. Food: not the worst, but definitely not amazing. The noodle soup was average, not overly salty which I appreciated. The chicken pineapple rice had soo much sauce. It was swimming in sweet&sour sauce (at least that what it tasted like). And I was so disappointed with my boba . They cooked the boba to be overly sweet and not really chewy. The drink was really bland like water. Service was fine. It reminded me of a fast food sit down. Overall, very average read more

What a really neat, completely unexpected experience! No, Chill'in Camp is NOT an outdoor adventure store. However, it IS a very new, very one-of-a-kind destination eatery with a menu of Asian persuasion and an extremely interesting dining room - think camping chairs and tables; working lanterns, globes, white light strands, and an overhead light that resembles the moon to illuminate the atmosphere. Although artificial, the addition of tall grasses and green rugs add to the camping ambiance. I was #lost and I hadn't yet even had a bite of the cuisine I was about to meet! Take a look at the photos to understand that camping is the vibe, but the food served at Chill'in Camp is hardly hotdogs and S'mores. For a peek at the complete menu, click here https://www.chillncamp.com. I hope you'll decide to give this new dining experience a try. I'm really glad I did and WILL return for that shrimp! #Getlostindiana read more

We really enjoyed our recent visit to Chill'n Camp. They were fully committed to the camp theme & it was nice sitting in one of their tent style booths. We got the $60 family combo & really enjoyed the options especially the skewers, wings, shredded chicken dry noodles, and the boba. The dry noodles was unexpectedly fantastic. Service was a little slow with orders not arriving all at the same time. Overall though, a very fun and tasty place for lunch or dinner. read more

Thought we would try a new place for lunch. Walking in the place is very clean open and great layout. Very eye pleasing! The chairs, though, if you've got thick thighs and big hips, it hurts sitting in them. I just sat at an angle and I was ok. The food was SPOT on with the flavor! YUM! Everything was wonderful and plenty! Lots of parking also. A great dinning experience. Thank you so very much read more

Our foodie group came to Chill'n Camp Tea & BBQ for lunch today, and it was a unique experience. I was running late, but the other members of our group were there, and the restaurant was not open at 11:00 am like it is advertised on the door. It turns out the staff were running late and opened the restaurant late around 11:15 am because they were stuck in traffic. When I arrived, I was surprised at the theme of the restaurant, which was Asian/Thai, but the ambiance was definitely a campsite theme and looked like a campsite. There were tents that we ended up sitting in for lunch that were booths, but looked like tents. It was a cool ambiance and made me feel like I was outside camping. The menu was Asian/Thai cuisine, like I said, which was a big surprise for a campsite ambiance, but looked very good. I ordered the takayoki for a starter which was calamari balls with eel, scallion, and onion, and lamb skewers. The takayoki was out of this world and a party in my mouth. The taste was unbelievable and loved every minute of it. The lamb skewers tasted incredible and cooked to perfection. The texture of the lamb was just right and had incredible flavors. I ordered the sauteed Jasmine Green Tea to drink and it was very refreshing! My friends ordered the shrimp and scallion pancakes for starters which I sampled and they were terrific. I even picked up an order of the shredded chicken dry noodle entree to take home for dinner because my friend ordered it and it looked amazing. I tried it for dinner tonight and it was very fulfilling. The texture of the noodles were perfect and the shredded chicken and broth made for an excellent combination of flavors. The service was good from the owners. We were the only ones in the restaurant, along with two other people, so it was not a long wait for our food. Chili'n Camp Tea & BBQ is definitely a unique restaurant and a different dining experience that I have been used to in the past, but the food is excellent and well worth the price. You will feel like you are camping, but with a Asian/Thai cuisine twist to it. It is different and unusual, but well worth the experience. Everyone should come check this place out. read more

This place was so freaking cute. It's in a strip mall and you probably would not think to stop in based on the outside, but the service was friendly and there was plenty of seating. We got the duck bao, beef and shrimp skewers, scallion pancakes, seared potstickers and chicken tenders with fries. It was all so good and well seasoned. The beef skewers were especially good. Would definitely come back. read more

I give 4 for ambience and service, staffs are nice. But for food : from Asian / Taiwanese standpoint (taste aspect) 3/5. The portion is huge though. I did feel wow with the presentation. It's a fun experience that's for sure. read more

We visited this cute and quite Asian BBQ spot! The theme is so cute and fun! Very nice vibe! I'm it waiter was very kind! Food wise the appetizers and smaller plates such as the wings, the pancake & the bun were very delicious! In our opinion much better than the mains! Our main dishes were under the over rice option! I got general tsos chicken & he got pineapple chicken! Both really great portions and they were good just not amazing! I think adding something like soy sauces would help! The pancake was my favorite! So delicious & the chili sauce topped it off! Overall, it's a really nice spot and I would for sure recommend the pancake & wings! I would come back to try other items! I forgot to try drinks and so I definitely would like to try those and their ramen! read more

Stopped in here on a Saturday night. It was cold and rainy out so it wasn't too busy. We really liked the atmosphere. The room is setup to look like a camping area and even has a corner for karaoke singing however no one used it while we were there. We were quickly greeted and the staff is so friendly. I chose the kumquat lemon tea for my drink and it was delicious. For appetizers we chose the seared potsitckers and wings with the Korean sweet and spicy sauce. Both were amazing especially the wings. For our meal we chose some random skewers. We chose beef, lamb, calamari, wings, shrimp, cauliflower and enoki mushroom. All were amazing. The cauliflower is definitely a must try. The staff was very attentive and super friendly. We will definitely be back to try more things off the menu. The price was reasonable also. read more

Tl;DR: Fun little place with delicious skewers, definitely recommend. Food: Tried the Korean wings and several of the skewers. The wings were good but the breading was a bit thicker than I'd like. Skewers were actually awesome, well seasoned (like flavor seasoning not just salted), and there was a reasonable amount of meat per order. Ambiance: Love the camping theme, but it does kind of fade into the background when eating. It sure what to recommend, but it'd be nice if it was a bit more... immersive? Server was friendly and prompt, no issues at all. Cost: Two of us came in a little under $60 after tip (food plus one boba tea) which felt about right for how much we ordered. Overall: Had a great time, will definitely go again. read more

I was impressed by this place. The concept was cool and chill. The food was delicious. Before we even ordered we were provided a tiny salad with ginger dressing that was refreshing. Service was excellent and brought with a smile. Beef was so tender. Only issue I had was the men's restroom was out of soap and smelled odd but I can overlook it with the rest of my experience. I would come back again. read more

Cute quiet light lunch place, nice to go for good food and nice place to catch up with friends. We went in between lunch and dinner so It was empty with a few delivery/pick up Orders going out. Decorated like a clamping area with chairs and tables in groupings and a couple with a tent over to feel more secluded with a little camp lantern on the table. This gave us a few pics to post! Food is Korean BBQ and Boba teas. We ordered a few skewers and they asked us our heat level to be added we said just a little so we could enjoy the food and it was just the right amount! We ordered regular tea and my daughter got a cookies cake cream boba something she really liked it, for me too sweet and heavy for lunch. We just ordered a few skewers of lamb, cauliflower, squid, shrimp, tofu and enookie mushrooms with garlic eggplant on the side. They do have other meats like wings and an assortment of steamed buns. The skewers were delicious with the a BBQ dry mix on them plus a small amount of heat but then combining it with the garlic eggplant was an awesome bite. Not big portions and no cooking at the table so a great place to grab a bite, share some food and talk with friends around a table. The skewers come out on a metal tray ontop of a wood crate to hold the heat source inside and safe, so cute!! Staff was very friendly and helpful! This is a newly opened restaurant so give it a try, I will go back!!! read more

Food is good. Chairs are beyond horrible. Service needs some work. Things were a little slow today because the server said they were missing a chef. The server was very friendly. My wife and I got the Takoyaki as an appetizer. It took a while to bring out but it tasted very good. I order a set of lamb skewers and beef skewers, both spicy. My wife ordered the bulgogi beef over rice. Her meal came out before mine. It was a bit on the dry side. My wife asked for soy or bulgogi sauce twice but it never came out. My skewers arrived when my wife was half done with her meal. These tasted excellent. Well seasoned and spicy. The meat was cooked great. The atmosphere is 'campy'. Designed to look like the outdoors. It's a neat atmosphere BUT the chairs all very very terrible. There are two types of tables in here, standard height tables with chairs or a couple of camp style tables with folding chairs. We wound up sitting at the folding chair area. I'm 6'5" and a solidly built. The folding chairs felt very dainty to me so I grabbed one of the regular chairs for my table. First problem was that the camp tables are lower than the normal tables so I felt like I was way higher than the table. The other issues is that these are super uncomfortable for me. Apparently my hip bones are wider than these chairs. I spent the entire time with the chair digging into my hip bones on both sides. And with the delay in food this made it very unsatisfying. I hate your chairs and they will make me very unlikely to come back. Which is a shame because I really liked the skewers. I would have rated higher because I liked my food. read more
