    Shroomin' Sammie.
    David L.

    From the moment we walked in, we were happily greeted. The space was absolutely beautiful with exposed brick as their walls and the service was impeccable. Our waiter was extremely helpful in selecting our drinks and mains. We ran into a few snags with our mains but they were quick to address the issue and offered us complimentary drinks and a dish. Which was not necessary as we understand some situations out of their control but it was much appreciated. The Garden Benedict was good. Bread was toasted just right with a good amount of avocado. Topped with a generous amount of smoked salmon, followed by hollandaise sauce which had a bit of acidity to it which helped cut through some of the dish' richness. As well as a perfectly poached egg on top. The salmon itself lacked a bit more moisture but good dish overall. The chilaquiles were flavorful and generous. The chips were crisp and topped with salsa verde which was tangy and vibrant. Blackened chicken, black beans, Mexican crema, sprinkled queso fresco and perfectly cooked eggs finished the dish. I didn't get to try the Shroomin' Sammie but it looked tasty. Drinks we tried were the Mimosa with Lush Love cold pressed juice. Perfect recommendation as it was refreshing and flavorful. As well as the detox dream. It may look off putting due to the use of activated charcoal but tasted amazing! It had a subtle heat so be warned. I absolutely recommend and would visit again.

    Went with my friends for brunch and it was good as usual! Went with a burger this time and thought it was great. They also had these awesome ube cookies that I definitely recommend!

    What a great place we came across today for lunch. Lee was our server. He was awesome, friendly and attentive. The food was really good. My wife had the BLT Smash w/ London Fog Tea. My daughter had the BLT Smash topped w/ Egg with a Butterscotch Latte. My Son-In-Law had the Fajita Bowl (lots of very tasty meat). I ordered their Korean BBQ Burger (fantastic).

    The Garden Table on Mass Avenue is my favorite brunch spot in all the land so I decided to give their Carmel location a try when a friend was in town. We arrived on a Saturday morning and were able to be seated immediately without a reservation. The menu is comparable to their downtown sister location. I truly love how consistently fresh, clean, and beautiful their ingredients are. Unprocessed and still indulgent, Garden Table offers nutritious dishes that don't leave you feeling lethargic after your dining experience. As big of a fan, as I am a Garden Table, I am subtracting one star due to the quality of our service. The restaurant was busy, but it wasn't overwhelmingly packed, if that makes sense. There was no waitlist or line to get in, but it seemed like most of the tables were full. I'm not sure if they were short staffed that morning, but our server was on a mission to take orders and nothing else. No friendly banter or suggesting any recommendations. My friend had to ask for her Coke at least three times. Everyone has their bad days though, and I have full respect for the service industry so this will not deter us from returning to try them again. Keep in mind though that there are plenty of other places to dine in the Carmel area so the comprehensive experience does matter.

    Definitely try the cold pressed juice!!

    Love the vibe and the food!! Ive been twice, but the first time, my eggs were cold (like, refrigerated cold) so, my score is a little lower. The second trip was perfect though!

    Juice flight
    Courtney E.

    If I could give half stars I would, but unfortunately this trends more 3 star than 4 star experience for me. My work group visited for brunch with a table of 8. I personally ordered the chilaquiles with chorizo. The chilaquiles themselves were good, the chorizo was a chopped up patty instead of being ground which I found strange and wouldn't have ordered if I had known it would be patty style. We had more than 1 issue at the table with food, including 2 plates of cold eggs and one hair in food. The eggs were not even warm, just outright cold. They did immediately offer to fix that, unfortunately a small hair was found in one of the replacements. Presentation is beautiful, execution needs some work.

    Breakfast burrito with queso
    Amy H.

    My friend and I were in Indy for a concert Saturday night & stopped here for brunch before heading home. We had to wait for quite a bit, but it was well worth the wait. My friend ordered fresh juice which she enjoyed and I had a mimosa. I ordered a breakfast burrito. It was delicious, but my friend and I could have definitely shared the huge portion. The ambiance was cute inside and out. I would definitely return if I am back in Indy.

    Salmon toast and southwest potato bowl
    Dez W.

    Hey yall! Upon my first time visiting Indy I KNEW I had to try a great restaurant. My first stop was the Garden table. The vibes are hipster, millennial, and idk if this was just because of the parade that weekend but very pride friendly- yall do yall thing. I ordered a bottle of mimosas which came with 3 different flavor shots and all had their own pizzaz. I tried the salmon toast (5/5) but you gotta like capers as they put alot. I also had the southwest steak and potato bowl which was filling and phenomenal! If youre in indy pull up!

    gardening break and dirty dartini
    Josie M.

    Brunch was fabulous! The drink menu was so much fun and very unique - I wanted to try everything. We got the gardening break which is good of course if you like mezcal. It wasn't too much passion fruit either. The dirty dartini was quite dirty and not all that boozy but I liked it for a brunch drink. They forgot the feta stuffed olives so I asked and they brought me 4 olives which was very nice. As for food, we got the GT club and the chicken sammie. The club was loaded with turkey and prosciutto. It was really tasty. The chicken sandwich was phenom. The meat was so juicy and the caramelized onions were delicious. Our waitress was super nice and gave good recs. Overall great experience and vibe.

    Smoked Salmon Toast
    Yiesha B.

    I had a meeting here this week and I ordered the smoked salmon toast. During lunch time on Mass it's hard to find parking but it was ok. I only had water but they a great beverage menu. As you can see my toast looked and was amazing! It was pretty, flavorful and I added the egg... so glad I did! . After my client saw my order they said they were going to order that next time they were there. I enjoyed the chilled environment. People were having meetings, people were working and some just met up with their friends. It's a very diverse environment. Our server was very kind and accommodating. My meeting ran a little long so I got a parking ticket because my time expired! Warning: always check your meter because if you go past a minute in that area you'll get a ticket!!! That's the one thing I hate over there... Other than that, I enjoyed my experience. Definitely give this spot a try!

    Croissant french toast...you won't be disappointed!
    Teresa L.

    Definitely one of my fave spots on Mass. Ave! Had to bring my guy here since he's never been. The decor, the staff, the vibe is very welcoming. He ordered a fresh juice...beet red and absolutely delicious. I decided to try the croissant French toast and he ordered the garden Benedict with the lamb bacon. Both dishes absolutely beautifully presented and very tasty. To take home we chose the lush love. I'm definitely sure we'll love it. Maddie was our lovely waitress. Love her smile and energy. Always a pleasure to see Slim, an absolute delight and their vibe is infectious. Always simply a beautiful soul. Can't wait to come back when the weather warms up a bit more to sit outside and enjoy some sunshine and cocktails. Best Sunday breakfast brunch spot in downtown Indy!

    I really enjoyed this visit to Garden Table. I have been here for drinks but this was my first time having food. The service was amazing and the food was even better I had the Turn-key sandwich and it was 100% what I expected! My friend grabbed us a table so I was lucky to have a seat already. It got packed in there pretty fast. Also, the music being played in this place was superb. I left with my tummy and soul full!

    Liz T.

    We had a wonderful time here with some friends from out of town. The location is great and the ambiance is fun. The food was a sad salty, so be beware if you get anything with the smoked salmon. I highly recommend getting a juice flight! They are a lot of fun.

It was also a big plus it is located in one of my favorite hotels in the city. My friend and I arrived right when they opened. The bar is beautiful. It is spacious with tons of seating. My friend and I decided to sit at the bar. There were two bartenders working. Both super nice guys. I told them I was wanting a mocktail that actually tasted like a cocktail not just some juice or soda. The one bartender made me a cocktail based on the flavors I liked. It was delicious. Definitely one of the mocktails I have ever had. The service was great. The drink was amazing. This is now one of my favorite bars in Indy!

The menu doesn't feel as "wide" to cater to more tastes. But the prices are still the same as other Mass Ave cocktail bars. BUT what Sundry and Vice has going for it is its locale. It's one of the only cocktail bars on this side of Mass Ave. Not only does this mean that it's easier to get to (depending on where you're at), but it also means that I've never had any issue getting seated here. In fact, even on peak Friday or Saturday nights, I have multiple choices of tables. (The only caveat I've seen to this is the unpredictable schedule of hotel conferences. If Bottleworks is hosting a conference, this place can get busier.) Compared to other cocktail bars down the road where they're on a 1 hour wait (or the "wait and see if a table opens" approach), I know I can always be reliably seated with zero issues at Sundry and Vice. The music exists, but it isn't overwhelming, and the low lighting and softer music makes this place great for actual conversations with people. They have both indoor and outdoor seating with a large selection of booths. The cocktail bar is inside of the Bottleworks Hotel; it's effectively a swanky cocktail bar version of a traditional hotel bar. Some of their cocktails are draft/prepped in bulk, so if you're looking for something fast, that can also be a factor. And it's right across the street from Garage Hall if food/snackies sound great afterwards.

Then the server came out and told us that the chef has decided they will no longer permit any modifications, including those that meet dietary needs. We were out on the quiet patio surrounded by other customers, so on top of being totally blindsided, it was actually pretty embarrassing, too. Folks, let me tell you how much I wish I could just eat the ramen noodles like everybody else. So much food that I love (and in some cases spent years learning to make myself) went out the window forever when my body stopped being able to handle wheat. But at Strangebird, I could still go in and enjoy the depth of flavor in every other component of a bowl of ramen. And that meant the absolute world to me. I'm heartbroken.
