    Spicy Hawaiian pizza & Chicken Tikka Magzone with ranch. Fast service, great food, fun vibes inside.

    The service was so friendly and fast! He made excellent suggestions. The pizza was delicious. We ordered meat lovers with the garlic sauce based on recommendation from employee and a gentleman standing in the lobby. I would go here again and again when visiting Indy.

    Jalapeno Garlic Bread with Cheese

    Magoo's is one of those places we keep coming back to, and every time, it hits the spot. Their pizza? Top-tier. The crust is buttery and crisp, the sauce has just the right touch of sweetness, and every bite is phenomenal. The owner is just as much a reason to visit--one of the friendliest people you'll meet. He genuinely cares about making sure every customer has a great experience. This time, he recommended the Tikka pizza, so we took the leap--and wow. So cheesy, so flavorful, and such an unexpectedly delicious combo. Definitely worth trying! Of course, we couldn't leave without the jalapeño garlic bread (because, let's be real, it's impossible to pass up) and their homemade ranch, which is next-level good. If you haven't been to Magoo's yet, consider this your sign.

    Pizza is delicious

    Coming from California I can say Food is delicious, flavor point on and crispy. 100/100 Service was fast easy to order and on time Ambiance loved it feel comfortable and friendly

    Chicken Tikka Pizza

    We ordered a delivery order of pizza for the first time trying this. I didn't use the app to order but wish I would've. You can track the delivery and you get points for every dollar spent. I did sign up after the fact, but I wasn't able to track my order or record the points. Our pizza arrived about 15 minutes late of their estimated delivery time, but it arrived in 45 minutes, which was fine for us. Considering I ordered around dinner time so they were probably busy. We got the chicken tikka pizza and I substituted banana peppers for bell peppers, we thought it was very good and will definitely give them another try the next time we want pizza.

    Good pizza and friendly service. First time trying their pizza had a large supreme. Good tasting pizza but could have used a bit more sauce. 4 stars

    Pepperoni and jalapeño large pizza

    Came here after my OB recommended Magoos during my appointment and was pleasantly surprised! The son of THE Mr. Magoo was running the store and you could tell by the way he spoke of the business and food that he has a genuine passion for the food he makes and growing the business. It was refreshing to listen to him speak of the meat they bring in from their own farm and to see the joy on his face when he explained how long the company has been operating and what they do with their food to make it so delicious. I'm a firm believer that in order for 5 stars, it needs to be good food, service and atmosphere and magoos was it! Aladdin made our experience trying this food even more enjoyable than the way the pizza and jalepeno cheesy bread tasted (which was 10/10). Highly recommend! Update: HE BROUGHT US A COOKIE AS WE WERE LEAVING TO SAY THANK YOU FOR TRYING THEM

    Chicken Tikka Pizza

    Food was AMAZING, got the chicken tikka and jalapeño cheese bread. The ranch is delicious!! Best pizza in Indy hands down. The service is friendly, clean and comfortable environment. Coming back for more!!

    We drove two hours for this pizza and honestly, 10/10 experience, no notes. Guy at the counter was super nice, the food was DELICIOUS, and the portions are huge like we have sm leftover !! We got the chicken tikka pizza with the white sauce and it was incredible. Highly recommend!

    Magoo's Pizza was a hit! Fusion doesn't always work, but this middle eastern pizza did more than work for dinner. RJ working the front of the restaurant was helpful the whole time. The feel of the place is exactly what you want for a good pizza dive. Give this joint a try today!

    cheese pizza
    Sai P.

    I stopped by to pick up an order for lunch, and the food was hot and ready at the time I was told while ordering! There was a parking lot in front of the restaurant that could fit about 12-15 cars, and I didn't have any trouble parking, which is always nice. The inside was pretty calm and quiet when I walked inside, and I would have liked to sit down to eat if I hadn't been in a rush I got a personal cheese pizza, but the menu had a few items that caught my eye, like the chicken tikka pizza. I believe this is one of the few pizza restaurants in the Indy area that use only halal meats in their recipes. I was able to snap a quick picture of the pizza I ordered, but the fries I ordered on the side were gone before I knew it.... They were well-seasoned, crunchy and, deliciously crispy--I wouldn't have guessed how much I would enjoy fries at a pizza restaurant :) Will be going back to try the other menu items and those fries again!

    Hi, Magoo’s is not a traditional pizza place and we try to accommodate different tastes and spices so give it a try! I am sure you will find something you will love.

The hamburger patty was thick and juicy and cooked the way I'd prepare it myself. Portions were more than ample. After finishing my "feast" it was time for dessert, a Root Beer float, served in a tall larger glass with an ample portion of ice cream. I would suggest ordering it for two...it's that big. All enjoyed their burgers and we're looking forward to returning next year. * I purposely didn't review the other meals served, as they will be doing their own Yelp reviews.

Vegan friendly which is great for a burger place. You can come here and pig out while bringing someone who doesn't enjoy the slaughter - a big plus for extended family outings. A couple of other pros are there is a whole freaking parking lot which is unusual but awesome. The full bar has plenty of options including great craft beer. Last but not least the cheese curds are the best in Indy that I'm aware of. I've had a couple of their burgers so far and I don't think you can go wrong with them. The Motörhead is basically a Greek style burger which I found to be exceptional. Burgers are cooked to how you like it so execution is also phenomenal.

It fits right in with the Fountain Square neighborhood! This burger had a lot going on. Chicken, waffles, bacon and a sweet syrup making it taste like something you'd want to eat for breakfast. Everything worked, except the actual burger. And since that was supposed to be the star here, I knocked it a little for not meeting burger expectations. Unfortunately the burger was not seasoned at all. You can probably tell just by looking at it that it was also pretty dry. All the other elements were holding this together and the burger itself got lost because of the lack of seasoning and flavor. No complaints with service or presentation! Just needs improvement on the actual burger, at least with this one anyway.

The menu is simple, but still offers a nice variety of options. I ordered the Swissy That Walk burger sans mushrooms. I also ordered the Baked Potato Fries with jalapenos added to be shared with another member of our party. The burger was DE-licious! The fries could have benefited from a more generous helping of the toppings. They have a bar with the options to make your shakes boozy. They also offer Delta 8 and Delta 9 THC cocktails. An addition to the regular fountain beverages, they also offer a couple of mocktails and NA beer, I believe. The restaurant itself is very cute. It reminds me of a 1950's soda fountain re-imagined. I would return for the burgers, but most likely to-go.

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.

We wouldn't return. 2/5.

They primarily have table service but also a small bar "inside" - when the weather is nice, they open up the garage doors to make the entire establishment be outdoors.

The wings were good, and I especially enjoyed the Fat Dan's hot BBQ sauce over the regular BBQ. I really liked the extra crispy wings. My boys also wanted burgers. One ordered the Wake N Bake Burger and the other got the Fat Dan's Burger. Both looked tasty, and neither of them complained. The ambiance strikes a nice balance between sports bar and family friendly restaurant. There is seating both inside and outside, and when the weather is nice, they open the large doors to create an open-air feel. That's where we sat, and I enjoyed it. Service was quick and efficient, which was much appreciated since my family arrived hungry. This is a solid spot for burgers, wings, and fries.
