We had the best server ever! Duane was so kind and helpful. He went out of his way to make sure it was a good experience for us. Due to the construction in front of the building we had trouble with parking and he was kind enough to go out of his way to make sure we had that taken care of. His suggestions on our food was excellent. THANK YOU DUANE read more

I believe wholeheartedly in customer service, and this team is awesome. I called to have a dessert sent to my baby sister, who was dining alone for her birthday. I called and spoke to Raina (so sorry if I spelled that wrong), and she was so helpful. I described my sister to her, and she spotted her immediately! After she got instructions from her manager, they were able to do it along with the message I had for her. My sister and I live on opposite sides of the map, and I was not able to celebrate her day with her. She was a little nervous about going out alone for the first time in years. I wanted to give her some sisterly support. I appreciate the effort these guys put in for a random girl and her sister on a busy Saturday night. When I am in town (next week), we will be sure to dine with you guys. Thank you all so much. My sister said her food was delicious (I am on the phone with her now as she eats her leftovers), and the service she received was very good. Again, thank you, Raina, the manager, the kitchen staff, and the waiters and waitresses for helping make her night a memory. See you guys next week! read more

My husband surprised me with a Valentines dinner here last night. I have to say as packed as it was, I didn't have high expectations. Hubs made a reservation for 7pm and it took about 40 minutes after that to get a table. We started with cocktails, hubs ordered an old fashioned--he said it was too sweet-- but from what I tasted it was good. I had the prosecco sangria--super tasty and thirst quenching! We opted for oysters for an appetizer. Never met an oyster I didn't like! Could have eaten a dozen myself. Next we had a salad--delicious! Then our main dish perfectly cooked stuffed salmon with Brie sauce. That salmon just melted on the tongue. If you've ever cooked salmon, you know it is very easy to over cook it, especially the thinner part of the belly. This alone was the reason for me to want to return and have this dish again! I'm not a big dessert person--but the dessert was a chocolate box filled with sweet cream and berries. Beautiful presentation, simple flavors. Looking forward to having that salmon again. My mouth is watering. read more

I work across the street and finally stopped in for happy hour. We were able to get right in, our server was great and we stayed a few hours. It was quiet enough to carry on a conversation but wasn't dead. The food was good and the happy hour deals were great, although not extensive. read more

Arrived downtown early before my event and popped in for Happy Hour. I immediately noticed that it was quite stuffy inside. Not sure if they were having issues with the A/C, but it was cooler outside than it was in. I decided to stay after a conversation sparked between a few of us. The bar was pretty full but I managed to squeeze in as a gentleman was leaving. I ordered the Berry Berry Mojito. My cocktail was like summer in a glass. It was the perfect mix of sweet and cool, oOoh so refreshing! I wasn't incredibly impressed by the service. Unfortunately, the initial welcome was lacking from this experience. Water wasn't offered to start and there was a delay from placing my order to having to request for my check, despite being done with my drink. The big question after this experience.. Would I return? Yes. As I wish I had more time to enjoy Happy Hour and everyone has their one off days. The Happy Hour menu did seem pretty good from the quick glance I took. Happy Hour runs M-F, 3:30-6:30pm, which is a great time frame to get downtown after work. read more

Let's start with service. Chase, our server, was amazing! He had great suggestions and ensured my Landrey's rewards were accounted for on the bill. The ambiance is fantastic for a downtown hotel restaurant. It is connected to the Hilton on Illinois near iconic Monument Circle. Our dinners were delicious. Independent of each other, we chose The Voyage-a mix & match special. The seasonal mixed greens had lots of tasty candied walnuts. We both chose the Bourbon Glazed Salmon that cameeith potatoes & spinach. read more

Great place for a happy hour. The bar has a high energy feel and budget friendly prices on food and drinks. I had the burger cooked medium. It was topped with lettuce, tomato, onion and was loaded with flavor. The burger was served with a side of fries. To wash it all down i had a lemon drop martini which was delicious . read more

Started off at the bar. I was there in time to enjoy their Happy Hour. They have a really great Happy Hour menu. The waitress I had in the bar was very sweet . I ordered a Lemon Drop Martini and because it was such a good deal on drinks, I got a Prosecco Sangria to take into the dining room. The ambiance gave very classic steakhouse. It was nice but not overly pretentious. I ordered the Sugar and Spiced Roasted Salmon. It was cooked perfectly. Seriously one of the best meals I have had in a while. I know there are a lot of newer, more sophisticated steakhouses in town but don't sleep on McCormick and Schmick's. Its a solid choice. read more

This restaurant was attached to my hotel so I decided to have dinner one night. M&S is a chain, albeit a nicer one. I had a shrimp cocktail ($22) which netted me 5 giant shrimp. I appreciated that they gave me extra horseradish cause ya girl likes her sauce spicy! They have a great wine list and friendly staff. Thumbs up. read more

Very solid dinner and Happy Hour option right in the heart of DT Indianapolis. The steaks are the items to get - although the fish is solid as well - go for the ribeye or strip steak with a side of truffle fries and lobtser mashed potatoes. The calamari and korean fried chicken are great starters (and on the daily HH menu as well!). Service is friendly and the ambiance is casual yet lively. read more

From start to finish Aejay took care of us with recommending the perfect dish to match my dietary restrictions and pairing it with a drink. The food was great! The shrimp was cooked to perfection and the steak was the perfect pink. I'll be back for sure the food and the exceptional service were amazing. Ask to sit in Aejays section!!! read more

Great restaurant here in Indy. Been coming here since 2003! Tonight we had the Shrimp&Crab stuffed Salmon and the Swordfish Casino. Both Excellent. Service by AeJay (AJ) was terrific, excellent humor that made the experience memorable. As always the drinks by Parker at the bar are right on. read more

We weren't greeted when we walked in. It wasn't busy. It took someone about 3-4 minutes to help us. Our waitress was amazing. This was my first time visiting. Certain drinks you can't get a refill. I ordered a salad and the dressing didn't agree with my taste buds. Being vegan/vegvegetarian there are only certain things I can eat. My sisters on the other hand enjoyed their food. You are served with bread and butter which was hard and not edible. read more

Luke was my bartender! He was amazing!! I'm here coaching a busy volleyball weekend and he handled some very drunk parents incredibly well! He gave me solid recommendations, the wagyu steak frites were absolutely amazing. I enjoyed a couple glasses of wine to relax and I loved how clean the bar was! I came in close to closing time to grab dinner and he was never rude or rushing me! I will absolutely be back next time I'm in Indianapolis! read more

5 stars. Happy hour is a great time to feast on a few different items and save a few dollars. But I also enjoy the regular menu items, as well. The sea bass is amazing. The clam chowder is delish. The fresh squeezed lemonade is refreshing. Fish tacos were so good I ordered more! $2 Taco Tuesdays are fantastic. Calamari are excellent... when served hot & fresh. Thai sauce on the calamari is soooo good. The cheeseburger is better than most. My fav! Service is always great - even in the bar area. Street parking is available. And there's a garage, too. read more

We chose this place on a whim after being told there was a 2.5 hour wait at another restaurant. I suggested we try this restaurant because I enjoyed my experience at the McCormick & Schmick's that used to be in Virginia Beach, Va. We were quickly placed in our seats upon entering. There was not a lot of customers on this Saturday night. Unfortunately, the heating system they share with the Hilton was not working and it was cold inside of the restaurant. While it was a tad uncomfortable, I didn't want to deduct any stars for something out of their control. For the appetizer, we had the calamari that had the sweet & sour glaze with Thai chilis. I had the Raspberry Mule and it was a delicious drink. That was probably the best calamari I've ever tasted. I would go here again just for that! For the main course, I ordered the dry rubbed black Angus ribeye steak (medium) and lobster mashed potatoes. The ribeye steak was perfectly cooked and the lobster mashed potatoes were great. My family enjoyed the food they ordered. The place has a beautiful decor and our server was great. I'd like to check out happy hour the next time I come here. read more

Attended the wine pairing dinner on 1/26/23. The food was really good. The host , Orin, was very nice and informative. The salad with grapefruit, blood orange, fennel was refreshing. Duck with cherry really tasty, the beef cheeks were succulent, the sauce on the gnocchi was drinkable, so much flavor. It was interesting to learn about the Gallo wines and how they came about and how they got their names. The wines were very nicely paired. The only down part was the coffee was flavorless and luke warm. read more

McCormick & Schmick's Seafood & Steaks - Wine tasting dinner - Seafood Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

It has been awhile since my last review. Service was extremely slow. I realize it is casual dining. It took some time to get out our server so we knew what we wanted before she came to the table. We ordered and 15 min or so we got salads. About 30 to 40 min in server came to the table to tell me they were out of the fish I ordered. So I changed my order. Food was all good. Tea were refilled and emptys removed. We ordered dessert togo. They have a small fee for togo orders. For our two desserts it was $1.35 tacked on to the bill. It seems so unnecessary. We were already spending over 140$ on dinner. I would think food prices should off set items like togo containers and a bag? $1.35 is nothing compared to the total bill. But just felt like a cheap tactic. read more

My brothers and I treated my parents for their anniversary only to hear that the service wasn't great at all (we didn't go, sent them with a gift card). We have a tradition to send them to a new restaurant every anniversary so they can experience new foods, great service, etc... This was their first time to McCormick and Schmicks. We recognize the information is one-sided, but my parents are NOT ones to complain. If anything, they are very understanding and usually extend more grace than necessary. We would expect top notch service from a fine dining restaurant (as they have experienced other fine dining restaurants around Indy so far), but we were disappointed to hear it was less than sub par. And it wasn't just one thing, there were multiple reasons to justify our dissatisfaction. Also, it sounds like the server took advantage of the fact that there was a language barrier which makes us even more disappointed. My parents are used to it, doesn't make it okay, but it happens, YET we still expect more from a fine dining establishment. Would that service have been so bad if we (fluent English speakers) were there with them?? hmmm... Server's name was Kristen. My parents are NOT ones to complain. I'm also not one to write a negative review. If anything, they asked me not to post this, but I was so disappointed at the MANY things she did that I am writing a review to express my and my brother's frustrations. I won't list them all. The review is purely on service, not food quality (although there was one mishap with the calamari). Service wise - please do better. read more

I was in town for a convention. I got to town on Sunday and went to M&C for a work dinner on Wednesday, the last night of my trip. This was without a doubt the worst experience from start to finish during the trip. We had a reservation for 8 @ 630P. When we walked in there was another group of people already waiting at the host stand but there was no host. The host came back to a packed entrance with around 15 people. She sat the party that was ahead of us. As she walked them back, I looked at the dining room and it was empty. Maybe they let the other host go home early because it was so slow. They sat us in a table in the back of the dining room straight back from the host stand. The server was very nice, but didn't have a clue what she was doing. She took everyone's drink and appetizer orders at the same time. She brought the drinks out first and gave the first few to the wrong people. After she messed up the first couple, she started auctioning them off to the table. There were 2 or 3 conversations going at at this point, so no one was paying attention. The appetizers came out a few minutes later and the same thing happened. This time it wasn't our server dropping food at the wrong spot, but it was other staff members auctioning off apps. When there was no response, the apps were dropped at the closest open spot on the table. The server also rung in 1 of the 2 shrimp cocktails as a shrimp kisser. It created enough confusion with the servers that the manager noticed he needed to come over. The manager seemed more concerned with telling us the mix up would be complementary than with getting the order right. I ordered the shrimp kissers. It's hard to screw up shrimp, bacon and pepper Jack cheese and these were pretty good. I tried a couple calamari too. The sauce the cali came has chilis in it so keep that in mind if you don't like spicy. More of the same during round 3 when the soups and salads came out. People came out with bowls and plates and just started auctioning them off to the table. Bisques were going to people that had salads. There was an extra bisque that was vocally complementary as well. There were so many people delivering food, our server bumped into another server and almost dropped my strawberry salad. She prevented most of the contents of the salad from sliding out of the bowl with the front of her shirt so she had to readjust before dropping it off. I would have said something if I wasn't at a work function. There wasn't much substance to the salad, but dressing was pretty good. Out of the 8 at the table, my entree came out last. If they would have taken the scallops out of the pan when they were plating everyone else's food, the scallops might have been okay. Instead, these were burnt. I was sitting next to a guy from the south that likes seafood and when they dropped these things off he looked at me and said "I thought you got scallops". He was messing with me because these were so over cooked they almost didn't look like scallops. The sautéed spinach and crab hash were decent. The entire dish was dowsed in a lemon butter sauce. If the sauce wasn't there, the scallops would have been in edible. I had a Millionaire's Coffee for dessert. It tasted pretty good. It had whip cream running down the side of the glass which made the entire drink sticky. I think the reason the whip cream was running down the side was because it was frozen when it went on top. As the coffee started warming up the whip cream it melted pretty quick. I'll never go back. I might even pass if I get an invite. read more

We stopped here for an early dinner while in town and pretty much had the place to ourselves! I didn't realize it was a hotel restaurant when we found it. You could just tell the decor hadn't been updated in a good while and may need a little refresh. I enjoyed my shrimp alfredo, and my husband liked his oysters. Our server was friendly and took good care of us. I'd probably try somewhere else next time I'm back in town but had a good experience nonetheless! read more

Not the greatest. We ordered their 50 celebration menu. Clam chowder, Lobster carbonara, Brown sugar salmon, and crème brûlée. Clam chowder was delicious. Salmon didn't have any flavor. It was served over risotto which was not risotto. Tasted like over night oats/under cooked brown rice. Drinks were mediocre. Service started out great then went terrible. He messed up our dessert and then it took forever to get our bill. It wasn't even dinner rush yet. read more

We went to dinner here with our friend that's were celebrating their Anniversary and he had requested a quiet table when he made the reservation. They stuck us in a booth but kind of in the middle of the room so it was not quiet. The waiter was very nice but it was not communicated to him that we were there for a wedding anniversary. My husband got the steak and it was cooked perfectly!!! I got the Sea Bass and it was really good and I loved the broth it was in.
