    Mousse and butter cake (dry ice added a nice touch)
    Lisa W.

    I absolutely recommend this place, especially if you are celebrating a special occasion. We went to celebrate 2 birthdays that are a week apart in our family and they really went out of their way to make it feel special and personalized, including a birthday card at the table treating us to a free dessert option, a gift card as a gift to us from the restaurant, and they even took a picture, printed it on-site framed it and delivered it is us sitting out visit at no charge. Simply amazing first experience!! Now let's talk about the food. Presentation was great. We had a variety of orders from steak to seafood and everything came out as ordered. There was plenty of good between the soup/salad side and the meal. Everyone was really happy with their dinners. Now let's talk about the dessert! OMG. Since there were 2 of us they were kind enough to offer 2 options so we chose one of each (cookie & ice cream/white mousse with berries) and our waiter Nick even surprised us with a 3rd option of the butter cake which was his favorite option! Everything was extraordinary! AAAA++++ all around!

    Such a good spot to celebrate! We went for a rehearsal dinner, and it was awesome! The upstairs space was great for a large group, and the Sea bass was my highlight. It was great for an event like this, and I would definitely recommend it.

    Had the best family dinner here. The filet mignon was served tableside and that was so fun! Service was a little slow but it was still such a great time. I loved the ambiance with the live music as well. The artist had a lovely voice.

    This dinner was so amazing! My husband hates seafood and I LOVE it! That tower was my entire dinner and I was not at all mad at it!! Menus are my fav! Had only ever come across them at a steakhouse in New Brunswick before!

    Took my in-laws out before a concert, plus celebrated their anniversary. Terry was a wonderful server, and his partner Edwin took great care of us too. The food was absolutely amazing. Do yourself a favor and get the Truffle Mashed Potatoes and Brussel Sprouts. The Lobster Mac n Cheese, however, was a bit salty. Love the vibe here as well. Backlit menus, chandeliers, giant flower arrangements. It's a particular style that makes everything feel even fancier.

    I ordered the New York steak and truffled fries. They were both spectacular. The Caesar salad was good too. I didn't love the lava cake but it wasn't bad either. The service was top notch. Our server was available when needed without being overbearing and had great knowledge of the menu. The atmosphere was good too. We felt like we had our own space. If I lived in town I would certainly go back.

    Service was a little off today (sat Nov 1). There was some confusion of who our servers/waitstaff were. Ordered drinks that came after our app and were made tableside. 1 of the drinks came out incomplete and may not have noticed if another wasn't poured right next to it. They waited until we said something about it to then admit they thought it looked light. They replaced the drink free of charge. While taking our orders our waiter seemed preoccupied with what else was going on. My filet was great and super tender. It didn't have a butter sauce like the last time I ordered it (see picture). Also It was seared tableside which was a nice touch but inconsistent. Also the cheddar asked potatoes seemed to be missing the cheddar aspect. They just weren't as delish as I remembered last time. Overall it was fine just seemed like an off night.

    We went to Prime 47 in Carmel located in Clay terrace mall on a Saturday nite. Prime 47 offers valet service which is nice. They were busy so we went to the bar until the table we wanted was ready. The bar tender (mixologist) made us nice drinks. I had to run to the car and get my phone charger and as I ran out there I noticed 4 or 5 employees standing out the door smoking. I'm not sure why that struck me as YUCK. But that was a total turn off for me. In the past we've ordered here before but it was always take out. I will say they have delicious steak and prime rib, and their Mac n cheese is delicious. They also offer Wagyu prime rib that is so tender. After seeing that we paid for our drinks and left. I'm not too sure if Prime 47 has a credit card hold for reservations as we were walk ins. I won't go back I guess we'll stick with Anthony's chophouse.

    This Prime 47 has a different owner than the one in downtown. Yes, I got the gift cards from Costco. Let's start with the staff. I sat at the bar like I did at the one in downtown. The bartender was a lot more friendlier and was pretty cheerful. It really made a big difference from the experience from the downtown one. I sat at the bar in both places. I ordered the blackened scallops as starter and the sea bass with green beans and risotto. The scallops were well seasoned and cooked right. The sea bass was delicious and the sauce with really smashed well together. The risotto was accentuated with the wine and cheese, eccellente! The foods came out in good temperature and overall I was well satisfied. I definitely would drive the extra miles for this Prime 47. I don't even know why people go to the one in downtown. This is the world we live in.

Our server, Justin, was attentive and helpful throughout the evening. My partner asked for wine pairing recommendations, and Justin suggested a Pinot Noir that paired well with the meal. I ordered the Lemon Drop Cocktail, which was refreshing and enjoyable. The food was excellent. I ordered the Steak Frites, and my partner ordered the Duck A L'Orange. The steak was cooked to perfection, and the duck breast was tender and flavorful. We also shared the lavender and wild berry cheesecake for dessert. It was a unique offering--the flavors were interesting, although it wasn't my personal favorite. My partner, however, enjoyed it quite a bit. The ambiance of the restaurant is beautiful and elegant. My only complaint was the temperature inside the dining room. We dined indoors on a Saturday evening in mid-July when it was around 90 degrees outside, and the restaurant felt unusually warm and stuffy. I suspect there may have been an issue with the HVAC system, as there seemed to be very little air circulation. My partner was sweating throughout dinner. I'm usually someone who gets cold easily at restaurants and often brings a cardigan, so the fact that I found the temperature uncomfortable was surprising. Overall, I would recommend this restaurant and would happily return, assuming the HVAC issue has been resolved.

    I can see why Lone Pine is getting recognized by the James Beard Foundation this year. Why? In…read moreshort: The food is dope, the service is attentive, the restaurant is classy but approachable. But mostly it's for Aaron Hansen, the chef at Lone Pine. He's a semifinalist for the Best Chef: Great Lakes (IL, IN, MI, OH) category. What an honor! I'm curious to see if he gets the medal, but even if not, hopefully this recognition will draw people to visit Lone Pine, because people really need to visit. I don't know how Lone Pine would describe its menu, but I would call it elevated comfort food. One of the things my table ordered was chicken piccata. When was the last time you saw chicken piccata on a menu?! It was delicious, and served with mashed potatoes and lettuce leaves that added a nice, fresh crunch to each bite. We also got the roasted salmon, which was served with fingerling potatoes in a pesto sauce, with arugula on the side. This, too, was delicious and rich, yet fresh. I ordered the short ribs, which came with polenta and caramelized pearl onions. The short ribs were just fatty enough, and the sauce that they were surrounded by was unctuous and wonderful to eat with the polenta. I guess I should have started this review by writing about our first course! We got the French onion soup, bloody Mary wedge salad and the Caesar salad. The Caesar salad at Lone Pine is probably the best Caesar salad that I've eaten in Carmel, and maybe in all of the Indianapolis area. The thing that Lone Pine does differently and spectacularly is that they use breadcrumbs and not croutons. That makes all the difference! Granted, it does look a bit like a pile of pencil shavings on a plate, but sometimes the dowdiest foods are the best-tasting foods. The result is a satisfyingly salty, crunchy, creamy, crispy salad that I couldn't stop eating. I know I will be back to Lone Pine for the Caesar salad. We ended our meal by sharing two desserts: the apple pie panna cotta and the Lone Pine chocolate cake. Both desserts were amazing, but the cake won us all over because it looked deceptively heavy, but it was light and airy, and came with slightly sweet whipped cream. The service at Lone Pine is exceptional. They pay attention to detail here, and all of the little things are taken care of. Our server gave us just enough time between courses. Our water was refilled unobtrusively. We didn't get asked whether we've dined there before (because who cares?) and the menu wasn't over-explained (thank goodness, because I can indeed read). One thing we also noticed that we appreciated: The music was just loud enough to hear it, but not loud enough to notice it too much! It's these little things that come together to make a great dining experience.

A while back, I learned that Tom Main, the owner of Freeland's, was nominated for a James Beard Award for Outstanding Restaurateur. Well! That's all I needed to read, and I put Freeland's on my list of must-visit restaurants. Freeland's isn't a fancy joint, but it's also not not-fancy. Vibes were telling me that it felt like the kind of place where you want to put on a clean shirt, and so I got it into my head that Freeland's should be saved for a day when I felt like changing out of my yoga pants. So I visited on an anniversary. Pro tip: When you make a reservation online (and you should definitely make a reservation), tell them whether you're visiting for a birthday, anniversary, retirement, etc. They will make your dining experience incredibly special. We were greeted at our table with a celebratory sparkling wine toast (in shot glasses), and a complimentary scoop of fruit sorbet to end our meal. This was totally unexpected and was a nice touch, and spoke volumes about the service at Freeland's. Honestly, I don't know what to rave about first: the service or the food. But since I mentioned the service, I'll go ahead and just say that Freeland's has some of the best service I've experienced in Indiana. I felt like I was in the middle of a carefully orchestrated play, with people coming in and out to give me new silverware, refresh my water glass before I knew I needed more water, and whisk my empty plates away as soon as I was done with them. At one point, I was transfixed by watching the staff maneuver and dance around each other in the dining room with purpose and grace. It was a sight to behold. I love efficiency! I love moving with purpose! They do that here, all for you. One hundred percent, you should order the carrot appetizer. It's just called "Carrots" on the menu, which is an understatement. These are perfectly cooked warm carrots glazed in a Szechuan sauce, sitting on top of a creamy edamame hummus, drizzled with oil and sprinkled with everything-bagel spice. One order is plenty for two or three people to share, but I could see myself coming back and just hoarding an entire carrots plate all to myself, with a glass of wine, at the bar. For the main dishes, the Sakura Farm Pork Belly was ordered (kimchi, black forbidden rice, duck egg), which was so juicy and tender. I got the Loch D' Art Salmon, which is cooked medium, unless you tell them otherwise (but medium is perfect, so don't tell them otherwise), and comes with Carolina gold grits, broccolini, tomatoes, romesco sauce and harissa. Holy mackerel (I mean, salmon)! This was a perfect fish dish, and melted in my mouth. Every bite was amazing. It was just the right amount on the plate, too -- not too much, but also completely satisfying. They have some creative desserts on the menu. I didn't really want dessert, but we were given a dessert on the house, so how could I say no? The cherry sorbet was pure, icy cherries in a glass. So refreshing, and the perfect way to end the exquisite meal. Freeland's dining room is small, and when we visited, every table was full. Like I said, definitely make a reservation. But despite all of the people, and all of the people talking, it was never too loud. They have sound-diffusing panels in the ceiling to offset some of the noise, so I never felt like I had to shout across the table. They think about every detail here! This is one example of the care Freeland's puts into their dining experience, and it's not the only one. You are well-taken-care-of here.

Whilst I'm no fan of MTM's, and Langton's demise was easy to predict, this review will focus on the folly that is the "new" wine bar. First, patrons are left scratching their heads at why the first floor of the former Langton's space is vacant and the Wine Bar is isolated to its former upstairs? Employees will tell you it's to utilize the first floor as a banquet space. Um, ok, but the space is visible and open to the upstairs wine bar. Conceptually that's odd and what will this actually be like from a guest experience when both the Wine Bar is open and the banquet space is in use? Second, let's talk decor. Nearly all the quasi-Irish decor is still in place despite the obvious conceptual change. Examples: the stained glass work, the artwork on the walls, and the usage of snugs. Third, let's talk televisions. Whilst the abundance of TV's (with sports on most) is a hold-over from Langton's, they have no business as part of a wine bar. In fact, one of Langton's and now the Wine Bar's shortcomings is having TVs in the remaining snugs. I've been to countless pubs in Ireland and countless wine bars throughout this country, none of which have TV's in snugs. It defeats the purpose of a snug. Fourth, let's talk music. Current pop/dance-type music is not congruent with a high-price point wine bar. The music simply doesn't match the concept. Fifth, the wine list is uninspiring. Nothing but well known, upper end labels and they are priced accordingly. Wow, you have Silver Oak, Decoy, etc. . . how imaginative! Listen, I appreciate good wine and will pay for it, but it's much more satisfying to see a well-curated wine list that is geographically diverse and price diverse. It's pedestrian to have a concentrated list of high end Napa/Sonoma offerings. Also, the staff seemed to have very little knowledge of the wine list itself. That's ok at a place that is $7-12 glass. It's not ok at a place that's $22+ a glass. Lastly, the food was a joke. Teresa ordered a cheese plate that looked like it was assembled as an afterthought. I lament not taking a photo. It was a sloppy, disorganized pile of cheese, dried fruit, and crackers that appeared to be remnants from other servings piled haphazardly. There was no description of the cheeses on the menu, nor was one offered by the server. Conclusion: expensive, poor food quality, sports bar atmosphere, uneducated staff, and feels exactly like what it is: a desperate attempt to rebrand a space as something else with no effort.

They were served with a vodka-style dipping sauce that was to die for! For dinner, I had the Parmesan crusted grouper, which came out as a generous fish serving accompanied by pasta. I enjoyed it. Lastly, for dessert we were between two options to share, which we told to our server and asked her for a recommendation.
