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.

There was only one guy working the floor but we still got good service. It was busy for a Tuesday night which was good for them this place deserves to be busy! There was relaxing music with a calming slideshow of a reef playing. Here's what we ordered Shrimp tempura 8/10. 4 pieces and comes with sweet chili sauce. Pretty good for a restaurant that doesn't specialize in Japanese food. Tea leaf salad 9/10. Good flavors, slightly spicy, good addition to have at the table. Dry beef salad 10/10. So yummy. Flavors were great and if you ask for it spicy it will be SUPER SPICY so be warned lol. It had a good pepper and cilantro flavor. One of the best things we got. Baby pork ribs 9/10. You get a lot of ribs for the price. They're a little on the dry side but they pair very well with rice and veggies. Gailan 10/10. This was the best thing we had! So good and necessary to add freshness to all the spicy and flavorful dishes we ordered. It's chinese broccoli stir fried with garlic. Very good. Kway teow with chicken 6/10: good flavors but too sweet for my taste. Kungpao chicken 9/10. the chicken was super crispy and delicious. It was a little spicy and sweet. Mango lemonade 10/10. So good. It comes with a lime slice that makes it even better when you juice it with your straw. Overall great food will be back to try more items. Make sure to order sides of rice to go with everything as it is not included. A lot of the saucier dishes skew on the sweeter side. Love this local spot!

The interior was a bit smaller than I expected, but it made the place feel intimate. I went for lunch - I bet open kitchen's vibe is even better for dinner. Overall I'd go back here.

One thing I really love is their rewards program in the app. I've received several perks over time, from free shakes during their business anniversary celebration to a birthday treat. I even randomly received a free entrée coupon and used it toward the Sunrise Burger. It was delicious! It comes with two patties, so I ended up sharing it with my husband since I'm more of a one patty girl myself. Saving money while still enjoying a good meal is always a win, and I really appreciate how they reward loyal customers in this way. I've dined inside a few times and have never had any issues. They have a family friendly ambiance, and during the holidays they decorate like during Christmas with trees and holiday lighting. There's plenty of seating available, including outdoor seating, which is really nice when the weather is good. Their kids meal is also a solid option. It comes with a single hamburger, fries, a drink, and a cookie, and the cookie is actually really good. Their shakes are definitely worth mentioning too. My favorites are the Cookies & Cream and Banana Split shakes, but honestly, the other flavors I've tried have been tasty as well.

It is conveniently located on the 2nd floor of The InterContinental hotel. The host stand for the restaurant is located directly across from what appeared to be the guest check-in desk. It was a little confusing. Several of the items on the menu were very appealing, the B&B Omelet, Croque Monsieur, and Ribeye French Dip to name a few, but I opted for the Little Gem Caesar with Blackened Salmon. My husband ordered The Traveler with eggs over-medium. Everything was perfectly prepared. The proportions for the salad were just right and the salmon was juicy, flavorful and crisp from the blackening. My husband wasn't expecting the somewhat unique preparation of the breakfast potatoes, but I found them to be satisfyingly crunchy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside. I also ordered the seasonal Strawberry Margarita with a sugar rim. It was light and refreshing. The atmosphere is very chic, stylish and feels very upscale. The dining room, and even the restrooms, boast this amazing natural light from all of the great, big windows! Our server, Roop, was kind and attentive and the hostess was warm and inviting. We will definitely return to try some of the other offerings in the future. Very cute brunch spot!

The parking lot was not a lot of spaces due to this business sharing parking with other businesses. We lucked up and were able to find two spots but if not we would've had to park further away from the building. Once we got inside the building, it was a lot of people in there. You could tell that a lot of people do order ahead at this location because it was very packed on the order ahead side. Once it was my turn to order I was able to create my own bowl which is what I typically always do. I did not like that they did not have pickled onions because I really love putting these in my bowls. I wasn't sure if they just did not have them out and did not want to put them out due to it being busy. The worker did not explain she just said we don't have any but I could see the spot where they would be at if they had them. I have this new love for pickled onions which is why I really wanted them ughhh. Once I got done before I paid for my order I made sure they scanned my reward app so that I can collect points. The rewards program is very beneficial because you can earn different items for free, which is great. Who doesn't love free stuff.? We had wanted to eat outside but they only had about 4 tables out there and all of them were taken. So instead, we had to sit inside the restaurant to eat which space was very limited in there. We were able to find seating. It was very cold inside there after sitting for a while. While eating we had to use the restroom. In order to utilize the restroom you have to have the bathroom code which we had to ask for they were very nice and gave us the bathroom code so that we could utilize the restroom.

It's mostly grab and go sandwiches and salad, but they also have soup and a great selection of paninis that the staff will press while you wait.

The price point is reasonable and the woman who took my order and prepared my food was super nice. Yamallama for the win!

I already wrote a review about how obsessed I am with their chicken pesto panini, but I need to…read morewrite again now that I've tried more. I looooove their tangerine tomato soup, falafel bowl, and taco bowl. Last week, I asked an employee which item on the menu is her favorite and she said the curry cauliflower bowl, so I ordered it. I CANNOT EXPLAIN how delicious it was. I got the tahini dressing and opted to add on pulled chicken for $5 and have not gone a day without thinking about it. The curry cauliflower bowl has: curry roasted cauliflower, golden raisins, cashews, pickled red onions, crispy chickpeas, and artisan lettuce blend. I know it sounds healthy and I don't care if you don't even like curry... you will LOVE THIS. I want it for every lunch for the rest of my life and I'm already planning my next visit to The AMP so I can get my hands on it. Order it. The only turmoil I now feel is the stress of wanting to try everything on the menu but not wanting to *not* order this bowl. Take one look at their menu and you'll be so impressed. I mean... they have an "everything bagel caesar" dressing. How delicious and creative is that? They have sandwiches, salads, warm bowls, soups, desserts, and more. Everything is colorful, fresh, and delicious. Thank you so much @Yamallama for being incredible. I saw that you now sell your bowls at Dream Palace Cafe too and I hope to see Yamallama meal options at many more coffee shops, stores, and cafes around town. I'll buy one every time I see one!!! PS: I just saw that they closed their second location in The Garage Food Hall and opened one across the street from The Children's Museum instead, so visit there or this AMP location.

Was in town for my daughters cheer comp when we walked over to this adjoining building for some lunch. Me not being a salad guy at all I went with a Italian grilled cheese. My wife got the Athena salad and my daughter went with an ultimate grilled cheese. Line was pretty long due to the thousands of cheerleaders in town. However they worked the line rather quickly and we had fresh and warm food. My wife said her salad was pretty good and filling. Her only complaint is it was hard to eat out the to go box. But when you are setup as a mall food court there really isn't much else they could do. My Italian grilled cheese was a solid and fast lunch. Nothing special but it did the trick and filled my stomach. My daughter didn't really care too much for her ultimate grilled cheese. I tried a bite and it was solid. The Italian had more flavor for sure though. Overall solid spot for a mall food court option. Pricing was average compares to other mall eateries so no big issue with that.

We ordered the Caesar broccolini and the Burrata for our appetizers. The portions were plenty for 2 to 3 people. Both appetizers were good. We ordered the lamb Ragu and the half chicken for our meals. Neither one of us typically orders a pasta dish, but the server recommended it and it did not disappoint! The half chicken was incredible. My friend even said "this is the best chicken I've ever had in my life". I would order both of these dishes again! We were too full for dessert, but I'll be sure to leave room when I come back next time!

**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.
