    Lunch time salmon
    Kristi B.

    Server was so weird, she was very hot and she seemed disheveled. She was kind but concerning. You can't order dinner items at lunch apparently a different chef so he can't do dinner items. Salmon was good. But nothing to write home about.

    BBQ Smoked Brisket Hash*
    Elaine F.

    Best brisket hash by far!! Most restaurants that I've ordered hash from served diced potatoes and shredded brisket. But this brisket was a cut above! The brisket was sliced thick, smokey flavor and served with whole redskin potatoes that were so, so good. If you want a great brunch, add Connor's Kitchen to your list.

    Lump crab hush puppies

    I've stayed here at the Marriott several times but this was the first time I ate at Connor's kitchen. The Service and food were excellent! I dined during lunch service so I ordered off of the lunch menu. My server was Andrew and he was super attentive. I immediately ordered the lump crab hush puppies and they were delicious, I definitely recommend! I also ordered the wagyu Burger in my goodness, It was worth every calorie! I really like that they toast the bun and the cheese was cheesin!!! I look forward to trying other things off of the menu as well as the dinner menu.

    We stopped in to Conner's while in Indianapolis for a multi day conference. It is very near the capital building and the convention center in the downtown area. What I really liked about it is there is a large and very comfortable covered patio in the front facing the street. This was great to gather upon, during the waning hours of the day with colleagues to review all the things that had taken place. Fantastic menu with handcrafted cocktails, and delicious shareable appetizers. I did review the menu but didn't have a regular meal at Conners. Everything looked well prepared on the other guest tables. It is not standard pub food, instead it is several notches up. All in all, I would say that this is a fantastic place to unwind at the end of the day with friends or coworkers.

    Lemon Buttermilk Pancakes

    My first visit here, for Sunday brunch. There were only a few diners here when we arrived. The Colts were playing in Berlin at 9:30 am, and we thought it would be a good opportunity to watch the game while enjoying brunch. We ordered a few brunch entrées to share. The lemon buttermilk pancakes were doughy and undercooked in the middle. The edges were good. My friend ordered eggs, potatoes, and bacon. My favorite was the roasted potatoes. They were nicely seasoned and perfectly roasted. Our server was rather indifferent and seemed to be annoyed. Not annoyed with us but just seemed to be annoyed in general. Maybe he was just having a bad morning, but the service was not what I had expected to experience. The restaurant is attractive and we were able to see several tvs easily so we could watch the Colts game. We stayed for the first half while we were eating brunch then left for another nearby bar to watch the second half.

    My group of 6 visited on a Wednesday night. We had 6:30p reservations, but this large restaurant was fairly empty. Earlier in the day our team mate dialed to change our reservation from 5 people to 6 and was asked if we'd be paying with one check for the larger party. Odd. Visually the restaurant makes a nice first impression with its tall ceiling, bar, and lighting. Good thing I took in the initial scene because we were sat in a corner of the room and I stared at the wall for the remainder of the night. Most of our group ordered old fashioned cocktails and the Waygu cheeseburger with fries. Other than the burger standing tall, nothing stood out about either item. After eating hotel food for 3 days you'd think this burger would've been the star of the week. Our server was friendly and our food arrived quickly. However, nothing kept us there for another round of drinks and we took our dollars to other restaurant. While I'd return if this was someone's pick for lunch or dinner, I wouldn't make the effort on my own or recommend Conner's.

    Shrimp  Grits*
    Yining D.

    My family and I came here on a Saturday for brunch. We wish there more lunch options available on the menu. The food was pretty good, but I expected better just because of all the high Google reviews. We ordered the crab hush puppies which had a generous amount of crab in them and paired really well with the dipping sauce. My husband and dad got the wagyu burger which came with a generous amount of fries and you could add an egg or thick slice of bacon for extra cost. The shrimp and grits had a nice spicy flavor to them. The main item that was disappointing to me was the fish tacos. The fish was not seasoned well and was pretty flavorless with the other taco toppings. Service was friendly and efficient. Our waitress came over to check on us pretty regularly. Bathrooms were clean and all the booths were incredibly spacious. You can definitely come here with larger parties pretty comfortably. The food was a bit on the pricey side.

    Burger and fries

    We stopped in during an IU game to meet up with some friends and grab a few burgers, and overall had a good experience. The place was busy (expected with the game going on!), and even with the crowd our server did a good job staying attentive. Service was a little slower, but totally understandable given how busy they were. The food was definitely the highlight -- everyone at our table ordered burgers and fries, and they were fantastic. They also accommodated us when a couple of us wanted to split a burger; they handled it without any issue. Drinks were just okay. nothing bad, but nothing standout either. I've definitely had better and worse elsewhere. The only downside was how tight the seating felt. The tables are very close together, and with the place full, it was hard to move around or even get in and out of your seat. They also don't allow standing room, so if you don't have a table, you're kind of out of luck. Still, solid food, good service, and a lively atmosphere -- especially if you're in the mood to enjoy a game with friends. We'd go back again!

    Connors is attached to the Marriott Hotel. It gives the Best of both worlds-restaurant and bar. My cousin and I decided to sit at the bar to watch some games. The waiters were helpful and patient as we looked over the menu. The asparagus was cooked perfectly. Fries were standard. I felt they could have used fresh Parmesan. The wings were lacking flavor , and the sauce wasn't spicy at all. I was excited to try the burnt ends, but they were actually burnt ends. It was more like cubed pork with sauce on it. The pork chop was cooked perfectly and had lots of flavor. The butter cake was amazing! Overall the meal was good, but could have been better for what was spent.

    The pineapple mimosas were smooth and refreshing, the shrimp & grits were full of flavor with the perfect kick, and the brisket skillet was absolutely fire--tender brisket, peppers/onions, crispy onions, and that runny egg took it over the top. Even the wheat toast hit the spot. Huge shoutout to Brittany, our server--exceptional service, super attentive, and made the whole experience even better. We'll be back!

    Lemon Buttermilk Pancakes
    Erin D.

    I've only ever had the breakfast here, but have enjoyed it every time! The servers are always friendly and helpful. Gluten free modifications are easy and handled with care. Of course, I am a bit jealous of the lemon buttermilk pancakes that my husband orders. They are piled high, super fluffy, and come with a unique lemon syrup that he loves. I order the eggs Benedict on a gluten free bun with scrambled eggs. The sauce is incredible and I have enough for leftovers. I also love the race themed decor and atmosphere. It's a great hotel restaurant!

    Service was awesome, our server Skye made sure our food came out quickly and our water glasses were filled! Wish I could say that the food mirrored the service in terms of excellence. My entire meal was cold, and my peers who had the Benedict, the egg was hard boiled not poached and was also cold. While the mains missed the mark, the breakfast nachos and deviled eggs were fantastic!

    Excellent spot for brunch! The food and cocktails are out of this world. We had the brisket hash, the half order breakfast nachos and the Full Throttle Fizz during Indy 500 weekend. The staff were very welcoming. I cannot wait to return for dinner soon.

The space is super cute and has plenty of great photo opportunities! They were passing out cocktail samples during our visit, which was such a fun surprise and a great way to try something new. Our table ended up sharing a margarita pitcher and a cinnamon roll, both were delicious! Everyone in our group enjoyed their meals as well, so definitely a win all around. Service was good overall, and we never felt rushed while hanging out and enjoying brunch. The only small hiccup was that the extra plates for our cinnamon roll were placed on a nearby table, so we weren't sure if they were actually meant for us. The interaction felt a little awkward when we asked, but it was nothing major and didn't take away from the overall experience. I'd definitely come back, especially on a sunny day so I can finally check out the rooftop!

We hardly saw our server despite there being plenty of staff and not many tables filled. We had we had to go to the host to ask for a carafe of water. The DJ was poppin and we really enjoyed the music. And the food was fantastic. The avocado toast was $17 and it was heaping with greens and avocado. I would definitely recommend. The two eggs meal came with four slices of bacon and some diced potatoes. At $18, it was not worth the price, but was still good. We could have made that at home for less than half the price. I got the orange mocktail and it was fantastic. The problem was I ordered another one and it never came. I guess the server forgot to put it in. My partner got the Morning Ritual and it was super tasty. 10/10 on the cocktails. I think we would have had a way better experience had we not been forgotten in the corner and baking in the sun. We were quite sweaty and ready to leave by the end. We asked for the check and waited 15-20 minutes for it. Probably would not come again.

The drinks were so fancy and they came in a fancy glass, tiki mug, or coconut shaped mug which I loved! I ordered the Tambaran Firedancer and I'm so glad I did, it came with a whole fire show and it tasted great. It had the right combination of alcohol and other juices. I also ordered the coconut cream pie and it was good.

We wanted to sit in chairs with backs and when they sat us at a table with stools, we asked and they didn't really offer a solution. There were some highbacked chairs in the corner, but the table between them was small and low to the ground... I wish the waiter had just asked us to wait 15 minutes for someone to leave, but that was not an option, apparently. Leaving the old photos from my visit a year ago, including the old lettuce wraps.
