Five stars every time! Service is prompt, gracious and professional. The menu is varied enough for anyone who really wants a treat and not afraid of calories! Smothered pork chops with two sides is enough for me for another meal to take home. Candied sweet potatoes, baked beans, bourbon creamed corn are to die for! Chef 2J is a kitchen genius! read more

The staff was so welcoming right off the bat. They sat us quickly and our server Amya was so wonderful. The food was INCREDIBLE. we ate here because it was close to where we were staying but next time we are in Indy it's a must visit! read more

This place gave me horrible food poisoning. The food tasted great, but unfortunately I fell severely ill after consuming it. I ordered the fried chicken with mashed potatoes and Mac & cheese. read more

I was in the area and looking for Mac & Cheese nearby for my daughter, and so glad we stopped by! The service was top notch. Employees were waiting in the front, refilled water, offered a box for multiple to go boxes. All the little things. Like checking in a few min after food drop off to make sure all is good. The fries had a nice crunch. The burger was juicy and the onions and accompanying tomato gave a nice contrast. The real star was the Mac & cheese and the green beans. The Mac had a nice creaminess to it. I think I'm gonna try the brisket or some of the smoked goods next time. Everything that came from the kitchen looked awesome. read more

His Place Eatery - Steakhouse Cheeseburger was decadent! - Southern Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Second time visiting and the food did not disappoint. It was a first time visit for my friend so he got a variety of dishes to try. I settled on the fried fish with the cabbage and green beans. And the cornbread muffin while he wanted to try the chicken and waffles as well as the candied yams and Mac and cheese. Initially, I didn't plan on getting dessert but decided I would try it, and we both got the peach cobbler. All the food was well seasoned and delicious. I did find the crust on the fish to be a tiny bit salty I did find the crust on the fish to be a tiny bit salty. And I wasn't automatically offered the tartar sauce and I had to ask for it. The only dish that was a bit of a letdown for my friend was the Mac and cheese because he felt it needed more cheese. The cobbler was delicious but definitely needs the ice cream to dial down the sweetness. Service was excellent and our server was friendly and kept out drinks filled. Will definitely be back. read more

His Place Eatery - Chicken wings, Collard greens, coleslaw, cornbread muffin. I'll be back here for sure. - Southern Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Very mid food. I ordered chicken, waffles, mac and cheese, greens and sweet tea mixed with lemonade. The chicken was unseasoned, the greens had no flavor other than salt, zero meat in greens. The mac and cheese was stove top, straight out the box mixed with milk, and that salty fake powder cheese heavy on the yellow dye side. Absolutely inedible. The waffle was served with a golf ball size of margarine and corn syrup similar to Log Cabin brand. The waffle was actually tasty, but that margarine and corn syrup made it a 3 instead of a 9. Your food may taste better if you add real butter and real maple syrup with your waffles. The sweet tea and lemonade was the best item I had there. Our male server was really nice and polite. read more

This place is banging! Great food and service to match. 6 stars.Would recommend the wings and cat fish.

Yes it's me again it's been awhile but I found this new place in Indianapolis, ind. It's a soul food place called "His place eatery" a must if you are ever in the area. The soul food crusine is to die for , the price for 3 was under $100 and we ordered everything on the menu ( see pics) ambience is southern soul. $$ waitress are awesome, but get in early as it gets very crowded after 5 pm. read more

Excellent food and friendly service. My family gets carry out here at least once a week. The fried chicken, meatloaf, catfish and all of the sides are so delicious peach cobbler too!!! read more

Had to come back with my friend! I will say it, everything here is good! She tried the chicken and waffles, loved it - I had the Po Boy, loved it! The sides are just as delicious as the main course! Our server was a polite young man who made sure we were well taken care of! Honestly, It's a pretty busy restaurant but we stopped in right at noon so it was still a little slow, lucky for us our food came out quickly - but it started to fill up as soon as we started to eat! His Place has such a welcoming ambiance, I can't wait to come back again! read more

Made my initial visit here on August 9, 2025 for a late lunch. First impression was that there were a lot of cars in the parking lot so that's usually a good sign. The interior is very clean and spacious, menu is very professional and plenty of choices with reasonable prices. Pulled pork, brisket, greens, cream corn, sweet tea all were great! As was our waitress and the whole staff. I live too far away to make this a frequent stop, but trust me, I'll be looking for any excuse to make a detour any time I'm back in the area. So many other items I must try. read more

The food was amazing and the service was just as good. Everyone was kind and nice. My brisket was flavorful and tender, my sides perfect. I will return and work my way to the next options as soon as possible. read more

Wow! We really enjoyed this place from the friendly service to the food. Got that country homemade taste! We have the fried perch sweet potatoes and bourbon corn on the side, also the combo of pulled pork and barbecue brisket with collard greens and Mac and cheese. All were very good! Very friendly and at home feeling! read more

The food is delish. Chicken crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside. The fish was cooked to perfection. The collard greens, dressing with gravy was delicious. I hope to try the chicken and dumplings soon read more

This was a nice surprise! It's a clean and small place with a few tables inside. You walk in and you can approach front counter and they will seat you if you are dining in. They have a nice and friendly staff. We ordered the grilled Cajun tilapia with collard greens and and corn muffin and the grilled cheese with brisket sandwich with candied yams. Holy cow! Food was better than we anticipated - always awesome when this happens! The tilapia was very flavorful with a slight kick to it. The grilled cheese sandwich with brisket - did not ever think this would go well together but it was so fork tender and juicy. This is definitely a good spot for some soul food that will definitely stick to your bones. Haha Check them out - enjoy some finger lickin' good food!! read more

Everything here, from the service, to the food and timing of everything was perfect!! There was plenty of parking when I arrived close to 12 on a Saturday. The staff were so friendly and asked if it was dine in or carry out. I was seated right away and although I was eating alone, this type of restaurant just made you feel right at home! It reminded me of a place you stop in on a long road trip, hungry and ready for a good meal...but then wanting to stay for hours! I order the fried chicken with a side of mashed potato's. The seasoning of the chicken and the succulent tenderness truly had me doing a lil' food happy dance in my seat. It was SO GOOD! The waitress was attentive and personable and refilled my coffee right when it ran out. She made sure I was well taken care of. I had been told by a friend not to miss out on the banana pudding so it was actually the first thing I ordered! I lived in Georgia for 3 years and the banana pudding at His Place blew me away! It is perfectly creamy and sweet. I cannot wait to come back to this place. A bit of a drive for me but so worth it. read more

Nice portions, Mac-n-Cheese-ah, yes please!! Everything tasted wonderful. Brisket melts in your mouth.

Oh goodness!! This place is amazing!!! We got the Southern fried chicken, and placa(?) fried fish, with mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, and cole slaw. The food was so flavorful and delicious. The place was super chill, very relaxed atmosphere, it was pretty busy, but not overly loud or hectic. That being said the service was okay, I feel like it could've been better, the waitress didn't check on us until we were almost done with our food, we never got offered or given extra napkins, we didn't get our drink refilled until almost the end I had to go up to the counter and ask for hot sauce from a different server. The server I asked, was annoyed with me and instead of handing it to me while I was standing there, she handed it to my partner who was sitting on the table eating. I think that this place is 100% worth it. I think that with any place, there will always be room for improvement, but overall, the food is amazing and worth the wait and experience. read more

His Place Eatery took us to church. Okay. I made an error and didn't post immediately. I feel that I did my Yelp community wrong by not sharing this place right away. Forgive me. It is the holiday season after all. My friend and fellow Elite were able to meet last minute for lunch on a Saturday. Like hello, stars aligning with our busy schedules. Of course we wanted to try a new place so I suggested His Place because y'all know a good thing when you eat it. Off we went. We arrived just after they opened and it was already booming with business. An excellent sign! The service was immediate. We ordered all the things. My friend had tears in her eyes from the greens. Actual tears. I damn near did too from the chicken and dumplings. The fried chicken? Don't you start with me on some perfectly seasoned, amazingly fresh, juicy deliciousness. I've had some good chicken in this city and this tops them all. The mashed potatoes, the mac, everything just jaw dropping amazing. We really did try it all and it was a religious experience. Must try. read more

Literally doesn't get better than this. If heaven were a restaurant, it'd be this place. OK, I grant you this isn't fancy dining. And I've had very, very fancy dining. But it's darn good dining. The staff act like family with each other and you in all the best ways. Everyone is friendly and just there to help you have the best breakfast or brunch possible. And the food! This is chicken and waffles done as an art form. The chicken is fried so perfectly. And the waffles were to die for. Both the red velvet specialty waffles I got, and the plain jane waffles some others in my party got. If you want chicken and waffles, this is the place to go. Nowhere else is quite this amazing. read more

His Place Eatery has incredible southern style soul food and hospitality. We chose to eat in - the inside is simple, but reminded me of the classic small town restaurants, which was very nostalgic. It wasn't too busy on the weekday evening we visited, which meant we were served right away and the food came out quickly. From what I gathered, it is commonly very busy on weekends and even some weeknights. The food was everything I wanted and more! It had great depth of flavor and was served in generous portions. We tried the southern fried chicken and brisket grilled cheese with baked beans, bourbon creamed corn, mac and cheese, and potatoes. They were all incredible, but my favorite was definitely the creamed corn, followed by the baked beans. We also ordered the peach cobbler as we were finishing up, and they nicely packed it in a to-go container for us. Even if you're full (which you surely will be after visiting here), I highly recommend ordering one of their desserts to-go. It was the perfect sweet treat for later. I savored every bite of my meal from His Place Eatery. I had a great experience and already look forward to returning! read more

Always excellent! I eat here whenever I am in town every couple years. Have eaten here five times. Had smoked meatloaf, green beans, mac n cheese, and cornbread. Hardest thing about the menu is choosing sides!!! Took home banana pudding for dessert. Scratch cooking all day long. Comfort food like my mom would make. Love love love that the chef mingles with the diners. Restaurant is always busy with locals. Good service- seated promptly, server was attentive and friendly. Food arrived in a timely manner. Comfortable setting. I'll be back at least one more time on this trip . read more

Wet soggy no seasoning smothered pork chops- huge disappointment went straight into the trash!! That was a waste of money except the corn muffin was good. Ordered the smothered pork chops, macaroni and cheese and sweet potatoes. They swapped the mac & cheese for the sweet potatoes when I got there because the mac & cheese looked like some in the skillet not cooked in the oven type Mac n cheese. They should be ashamed of the smothered pork chops. The pork chops themselves are not seasoned at all directly on the meat. Instead they are battered in heavy thick breading and evidently kept on a steam table because all of the dough completely comes off of the pork chops. They show you your food, but when something is breaded and has gravy on it, you can't tell if it's soggy until you touch it yourself. Otherwise I would've left it all right there! I went at 2pm so the food should've been fresh, it wasn't. See the photos. The sweet potatoes are cubed and some were still hard. They should've been cooked tender if they are already cubed up that small. No seasoning I could taste except the sugar. Some of them are still hard. I don't know what in the world they did. Huge disappointment won't be back! Positives: They were professional over the phone with taking the order, but not knowledgeable about the smothered pork chops being a lunch item too. The place looked clean and organized. Location- 86th street read more

Came here to join my friend for a Yelp elite event. If you don't know about Yelp Elite you should look it up! Place opened at 11 and I got there at 1130 and got the last table! Not sure if they are always this busy or if there was a slight uptick due to the Yelp event. Plenty of parking available and plenty of seating. Great attentive service. I went with the Thursday Only Chicken and Dumplings with choice of 2 sides. Hardest part was narrowing down which sides to get but ultimately I went mac and cheese and candied yams. Chicken and dumplings were pretty good but the stars of the show were the sides. The candied yams were amazing!!! My friend got the pulled pork grilled cheese with green beans. Both were phenomenal! Can't wait to come back and try the fried chicken or The Experience! If one of those is as good as this time then this review will jump up to 5 stars! read more

I'm a tough critic when it comes to soul food cause I come from grandma's home grown garden of greens and poppin peas while talkin shz with the cousins, gathering every Sunday for family dinner and not a holiday was missed without warm food and giving thanks! With that said, my experience at His Eatery was inviting, the service was kind and very attentive. If you notice the pic, my corn bread is picked at only cause, again, my "expectations" of moist cornbread, but that wasn't what was on my plate. The Rib Tips were delicious, well cooked and the flavor was perfect, not too sweet and not too spicy. The Mac, tasty, I'd eat the Mac again! Yams were a bit sweet for my taste but if you like "candied yams" order those! Hubby had catfish and that was fried and seasoned perfectly!!! read more

Oh m'goodness this place threw me off and in a very good and delicious way. Came here with the wife, who BTW had the Yelp deal. She got 4 fried wings, side salad and cornbread. I ordered 2 fried thighs with mac'n'cheese and collard greens. Those collard greens were FIRE!!! No cap, I've been to soul food places all over the U.S. and this is the best collard greens ever! The chicken was so good. It was light, crispy and juicy. I will boycott all fast food fried chicken from now on ( except the occasional Popeyes and Jolly Bee). His Place will get my business again for sure. Oh and did I mention that the waitresses were the nicest and happiest servers!! Such a great Soul Food place, please come here and be fed great good and be served with love!! read more

Stopped in to get takeout while passing through Indianapolis. There was a wait for dine-in, but the front counter hosts helped me right away. All the staff were super friendly and welcoming. Even though they were clearly very busy, I got my food in about 20 minutes--faster than I expected!

I ordered the ribs and brisket--both were tender, flavorful, and delicious. Definitely worth the stop! read more
