    The staff were really friendly from start to finish. We got the family sized Caesar salad to share and 2 medium pizzas for a party of 5. The food was all great and more than enough for our group. Great location to eat in downtown Indy.

    Build your own sausage, onion, mushroom, extra cheese

    We aren't crazy about the deep dish they are known for. We ordered the thin crust which was not super thin kind of a cross with hand tossed - perfect. The servers are very attentive. We would go back!

    Pizza and cheese garlic bread was on point. Our salad was not great at all. You'd expect a fresh cold Cesar salad but it tasted warm and soggy. No crunch on the salad at all. Our server was very good! She was attentive to our party.

    Went here for dinner. This place is cool. They have tvs so you can watch sports. They have plenty of seating. Our waitress was great. She got our drinks and put our pizza order in quickly. The pizza was delicious. We had fabulous pizza and service!

    Ordered to go but totally wished we ate there. Nice decor with an upper New York kind of vibe. Their Pizza was phenomenal!!! In town from Dallas and definitely had our fair share of pizzas over the years. This one was pretty darn good! I would definitely recommend.

    Deep dish Meat and More meat pizza! Largest size please

    This place is my group's go-to place on Day 0 for PRI and it's honestly the BEST pizza ever. I'm from California and ever since I got my hands on a slice of Giordano's signature famous deep dish pizza, it was over. No pizza place from my home state can't compare so Giordano's is always something to look forward to during our 4 day visit. Meat and more meat! This was our table's pizza that was split between 4 people. Honestly can't complain, I love all of their pizza but since we only visit once a year, we always order deep dish style. Never fails and always leaves us full! Carnivore? Then you should definitely order this dish! Make sure it's the biggest one too! Calabrian Chili Honey Chicken Wings Ok so I can't be entirely biased with Giordano's. We wanted to try this out since it was a limited chicken wing flavor and honestly it wasn't the best. I mean it's a pizza joint? They specialize in pizza but we were so hungry that we figured to try it out. Hey, if you love chicken wings or just an enthusiast for wings in general, by all means give this one a shot if it's still available! Overall Always excited to come to Indiana cause I KNOW I'll be eating some damn good pizza. Deep dish style isn't for everyone which is nice that they have their Tavern Style and Thin Crust Pizzas. But since Giordano's specializes in deep dish pizza, it's highly recommended to order deep dish style! can't wait to visit again next year and see what new pizza they'll have! And can't forget about the awesome servers doing their best on those busy convention nights! Y'all the real MVP's! Ambiance is warm and inviting with a bit of high noise since it's also got a bar but it never phases me, if anything it's relaxing since I know I'll be indulging into pizza goodness. Just remember to come hungry and you'll guaranteed to leave happy! See you next year Giordano's!

    We have not been to an authentic Chicago style pizzeria. We found Giordano's. We sat in the bar area with a view of the kitchen. Having worked at a pizza restaurant before I was blown away by the three people making the pizzas and the cleanliness of the entire kitchen. Totally organized. The pizza was very good. Will definetly have one again.

    Greek Salad & Calabrian Chili Honey Wings
    Andrew W.

    My 5 Takeaways (in under 60 seconds) Location: Prime location in downtown Indy near stores and things to do. Street parking and nearby parking garages are available. Vibe: Family-friendly, relaxed, and comfortable atmosphere. The décor and layout are really nice. Service: Overall, the customer service isn't the best but isn't the worst. It could use some improvements, but nothing major. Everyone we interacted with was friendly and warm. Food: Really good deep-dish pizza! BIG portions, standout flavors, and superior ingredients. I recommend the Double Pepperoni - you won't be disappointed! Quick Tip: Don't sleep on their sides! The Greek Salad and Calabrian Chili Honey Wings are both top tier!

    Individual deep dish with mushroom, garlic, pepperoni. Delivered, and unfortunately not super warm.

    I LOVE Giordano's - it's my favorite Chicago-style pizza - and I'm in town for work this week. My husband told me there's a location 1/4 of a mile from my hotel, so I decided to get delivery tonight. They are not on Doordash - they have their own system, and there is a $1 delivery fee, $3 driver fee, and then tip on top of that. I ordered bruschetta for an appetizer and an individual pizza with garlic, mushroom, and pepperoni. It said on their website it would take about 50 minutes to an hour, so I made sure to order it as I was leaving a work event. 60 minutes came and went, then 70, so I called the restaurant to check on the order. It turned out the driver had left my meal with the front desk. (This was partially my fault - it turns out cell reception isn't great in my room at this hotel, it turned out the driver DID text me, saying "downstairs with your order," but I didn't receive it until 8:25pm ... I ordered around 6:50pm and the order was supposed to be ready 7:50-8:00pm) Because of this, I didn't get my food until 8:10-8:20 or so, and unfortunately the pizza was barely warm. My hotel thankfully has a microwave so I microwaved it a little bit, but even before that, the crust was kinda soggy, as was the bruschetta - even though I appreciate them putting the tomatoes on the side, so that the whole thing wasn't soggy. All of this with tip was about $36 btw, and if I didn't have a work expense account I'd be even more disappointed than I currently am. Oddly enough, the bruschetta was better than the pizza, maybe because the tomatoes were put on the side. The pizza was still tasty but the cheese and the crust was lukewarm at best.

    The best pizza in Indiana hands down. There is no pizza like New York pizza. Giordano's makes me feel at home!!

    Ordered via Uber Eats. I ordered a small thin that was way under cooked. Total was $49 with a taxes and fees. Took two bites and went straight into the garbage! Terrribke.

    Had Lunch here that was recommended by our Uber driver. Giordano's has been here for over 50 years so maybe it's a home town favorite. Pizza was ok. Service was great and the ambiance make you want to come in.

    A slice of Pepperoni with Jalapeños and extra sauce
    J E.

    I absolutely love Chicago food, with Chicago style deep dish pizza being a fav of mine... you can't really get it on the East Coast, so when I visit places where there's a Lou Malnati's, I get it! So, when in Indy and seeing there was a Giodano's I wanted to try it to see how it compared to Lou Malnati's. I previously only tried Giodano's in ORD and didn't think the airport version was the right way to try it, so I came here to see what the actual, handmade restaurant was like. Service was very slow, I had to wait a long time before my server came to the table to greet me, once she did, she was very friendly. Also, if you order a pizza, it take about 45 minutes to make, which I understand. I tried a small pepperoni with jalapeños and asked for extra tomato sauce. It did take about 45 minutes to show up at the table and, as you would imagine, it was piping hot. I dug right in, and the "umami" I crave in the Lou Malnati's sauce and crust was totally lacking - which was my first impression. I took a few more bites and loved the thickness and stringiness of the cheese. The bottom crust was good, but the side crust was thick and flavorless. I ate only 3 slices there and took the rest to go. I actually put it in the hotel room's fridge and then flew home with it the next morning to share with my son, who also love Lou Malnati's. He enjoyed this pizza, but I feel that's because he's been craving Lou's so much lately... so have it! Would I return to a Giordano's? Nope... I'll stick with Lou's!

This downtown location is super convenient. They have a small parking area where you can park for free for a limited time, which is a big plus. Otherwise, you'd have to rely on street parking. I came right around lunchtime and was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't busy at all. I love having no line, quick service, and I was helped immediately. The worker was friendly and walked me through a couple options, like choosing the dressing amount and whether I wanted the bowl tossed. Nice little touch of customization. I also noticed they were offering $5 off if you join their rewards program, so of course I signed up real quick at checkout, I love a good deal! The caramelized garlic steak bowl was a hit. It was a generous portion, fresh, and flavorful. I ended up sharing it with my husband when I dropped it off at his job, and it honestly filled us both up. Inside, the vibe is very chill and clean, perfect for a quick bite. They also have outdoor seating if you want to enjoy your meal outside, but this time we went with takeout. I love that they have fresh ingredients, good portion sizes, and quick, easy service. It's definitely a go-to when you want something healthier but still satisfying.

Not a big deal just something to be aware of, and if you are lucky enough to find a spot near them, it's tight getting in and out so just a side note. Upon walking in it was a pretty long line but again it was lunch time (around noon), so no issues. You order at and then get a number and find a place to sit. They have options to sit inside and out. We decided to sit outside since it was a nice day. The food came pretty quickly which was nice since it was lunch time. I ordered a kale salad which was amazing. My lunch partner had a wrap and she said it was really good. You can tell they are using really top notch ingredients which is good. Pricing is pretty typical for these type of places.

We complimented it, asked where they found it, and before we knew it, we were chatting with a wonderful couple who had traveled all the way from overseas just to watch Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever play that night. Moments like that are one of the reasons I love Indianapolis on game days. The patio was the perfect place to soak it all in. Fever fans filled the sidewalks, kids proudly carried homemade signs, and there was an excitement in the air that only comes from a city rallying behind its team. We could have people-watched for hours. Our waitress was exactly what every server should strive to be. Friendly, relaxed, and genuinely fun to talk to, she somehow mastered the art of appearing right before we found ourselves looking around for her. We never felt rushed, but we also never waited for anything. The food held up its end of the bargain too. The fried mozzarella disappeared embarrassingly fast and earned a solid 9.3 on my unofficial stretch meter. Crispy on the outside, perfectly gooey inside, with a marinara sauce that was every bit as good as the cheese itself. The chef salad was fresh, generously loaded with toppings, and easily big enough for a meal. I honestly couldn't tell you what beer I ordered... Because what I remember most is the experience. Sharing appetizers on a sunny patio, meeting fellow basketball fans from halfway around the world, and watching Indianapolis come alive before tipoff.

As for the drinks: beer prices were nice and cheap, but the margarita was on the expensive side and not really worth it.

We wouldn't return. 2/5.

    **Bluebeard... wtf**…read more Bluebeard has been on my Indianapolis restaurant list since I moved here from Chicago in 2021. I've found some really great restaurants here over the years, so I was especially excited to finally make it to Bluebeard. Each year during Devour, my husband and I pick a restaurant for each other as a surprise, and this year I chose Bluebeard. We had a 6:15 reservation and arrived about 10 minutes late due to traffic. I apologized, and we were promptly seated. Unfortunately, that's where the experience started to go downhill. Our server took about 15 minutes to come over, and although our appetizer arrived quickly (chips&dip), our drinks took another 15 minutes. I held off on ordering our meal because I wanted to do the Devour menu with the wine pairing. The food & drinks was a mixed bag: - Beauregard cocktail: 10/10 - Chips & avocado ranch dip: 8/10 - Crudo: 9/10 - Smoked fish dip: 4/10 - Mushroom ravioli: 8/10 - Short Rib Ragu: 3/10 - Chocolate crème brûlée: 3/10 There were definitely some great dishes, but the slow service and inconsistent food were disappointing for a restaurant with this reputation. The biggest issue came toward the end of the meal. The hostess came to our table and told us we needed to hurry because she needed the table for another reservation. **We were still waiting for dessert.** I explained that the service had been very slow and that we were waiting on our desserts. Our server apologized and said the hostess likely didn't realize what had been happening and was under stress. I completely understand that Devour can bring in more traffic than usual, but that's also something a restaurant at this level needs to be prepared to handle. We shouldn't have been made to feel rushed when the delays were not on our end. I really wanted to love Bluebeard after having it on my list for five years, but unfortunately, it didn't live up to my expectations. For comparison, some of my favorite Indy restaurants for both food and service are Bocca, Union 50, Matador, Rosemary & Olive, Tinker Street, Strange Bird, Delicia, and Bodhi. Maybe we caught Bluebeard on an off night, but for me, this experience fell short.
