But I'm so glad I was hungry and ordered the lasagna. It's a decent amount of food and I think it was the best Lasagna I've ever had. Seriously. Melted in my mouth and the texture and flavor was amazing. All the pasta and sauces are made in house and I could taste the difference. Delicious. My SO had been thinking about their linguine and clams and was not disappointed. There were fewer clams than the last time (granted it's been a long while now) so it's best for a lite appetite. Service was good and the owner stopped by as well ... from Italy and these are home recipes. Looks like they recently installed new carpet which was nice. Love all the framed pictures especially in the back room. This restaurant is perfect for a special occasion, or an intimate dinner, or for just when you want some authentic great Italian food.

Located in the heart of Fortville on Main St., there is a tiny parking lot in the rear but diagonal…read moreparking for a few blocks either way. I had to walk a bit but it was fine. It was hopping on a Friday night. I had been wanting to come here for a long time.. Everyone I know says this place is really good. This is a 3.5 star review. The bruschetta was 4 pieces and soggy. It was also 15 dollars. They don't serve table bread for free so I ordered some for $4 and it was about 5 1/2 slices of the same bread they used for the bruschetta. It was served with a bowl of oil with balsamic vinegar. I also asked for my pasta to be saucy and the waitress looked at me and she said, do you mean you want extra sauce? So for $2 extra I feel I got a normal amount of sauce so I'm not sure what a regular amount looks like. Unfortunately the pasta was pre-denté. Everyone else's dishes were steaming hot and the pasta was visibly able to be twirled around a fork. Mine was warm and I had to cut it with a spoon and fork just to get it separated for many bites, which were very chewy, almost hard. The ragù was fine. The atmosphere was nice for dinner. I read some other reviews and they are definitely mixed. One of my friends who had been before warned me after I was excited to initially try the cheese wheel pasta, to be careful. She said hers was wet and vodka flavored, so I didn't get it. Similar reviews said the same. I will say the calamari was some of the best I've had lately. Not chewy at all and a lovely light batter, served with tomato sauce. I did find it odd that the sauce was cold. Everyone else seemed to really enjoy their meals so this gets the 3.5 stars.

The ambiance is beautiful and nice, and the bartenders are very skilled in making cocktails. The cocktail menu is very impressive, and their selection of whiskey is phenomenal. I ordered an old fashioned with bullit rye whiskey, and it was terrific. We could also order food from Wolfie's Grill, so I ordered the hot honey pepperoni pizza. It was a wonderful pizza. The highlight of our experience was hanging out on the deck watching the view of the Geist Reservoir on a beautiful day. The Broken Barrel -Geist is a wonderful lounge to have a drink and food and enjoy the scenery of the Geist Reservoir. It is the perfect hang out spot in Geist. Everyone should come check it out!

For me that's supposed to feel moody, swanky, and intimate. This bar is all the opposite of that. I would suggest lowered moody lighting, low jazz music (not loud pop or rap), and curate an on-theme craft cocktail list. I can say that the service was nice and the server spent an extra minute with us talking about preferences and helping recommend drinks for our group.

We sat at the bar and were very well taken care of by Christian, who provided excellent service from start to finish. I decided to order the empanadas, guac, and churros from the happy hour menu. Everything was $5/each. I went with the steak empanadas, cuz unfortunately you can't mix and match flavors. For me, the texture was a bit off. Christian noticed my hesitation right away and kindly offered to replace them. He brought out the chicken empanadas instead, and they were much better. Not phenomenal, but enjoyable. My classic margarita was refreshing... until the manager offered me a sample of the Carriage House margarita. Whew! Yaaaass! That was deliciously potent! Easily two drinks in one, so pace yourself. It has officially become my new go-to leaded bev when dining here. If paella is your thing, I'd absolutely recommend it. That's usually my standard order. But just a heads up... sometimes it can be a lil like my friend when my outfit is cuter than hers - salty! So, you may find yourself needing another margarita to help balance your palate.

Staff was able to find us a table for 10 people in the corner even though they don't take reservations. Since it was a rainy night and we were placed in a corner which normally would be great views, it was still very easy to talk to each other and interact. As we gathered and trickled in, our waitress was very attentive to our food and drink needs and did a great job. Everyone around me had orders that turned out wonderful. My beer, chicken wings with dry rub with hot honey and blue cheese dips was yummy. My Fiesta Lime Smothered chicken was also very tasty. Better than I expected. Couldn't finish it so I had a good lunch the next day. My wife enjoyed her Cobb salad. Firehouse Cheese sticks were excellent even though I am almost certain they are NOT good for you. This is a regular place for us and the food is consistently good across their restaurants I've been to in the last couple of years.

She took great care of us even with a fee hiccups (that weren't her fault). Salt had such fun instagram promos for this event which is what brought us here! My only note is that if something is being advertised there should be enough to go around. The restaurant only had what seemed to be 5 food tower stands and the event menu had the wrong dessert listed. That said, our waitress was able to get us a tower stands eventually, and the dessert misprint wasn't communicated to her until after we ordered. Again, not her fault at all - she was an absolute doll and really saved the experience and made it enjoyable! Highly recommend going and trying the lemon drop martini, sushi and kung poa shrimp!! Would go back again.

I ordered the chicken fried chicken and it was a good portion. The chicken seemed breaded nicely, but it was hard to cut up the chicken and it tasted chewy and overdone. The jalapeño gravy was good, but it wasn't a meal I would drive back for. I tried a bite of the key lime cheesecake - it wasn't great due to bits of granulated sugar. The cinnamon sugar bundt cake was delicious though quite a small portion. Overall I felt the menu was quite overpriced for the quality of food, but I cannot speak on the seafood offerings.

The shrimp were overcooked to the point of having a slight burnt taste and when you bit into one all of the breading fell off. The tomato basil soup was ok but was lukewarm. My martini was like chocolate milk, not much coffee flavor at all. We would not venture in to try again.

Foods that I like: pan pizza, pretzels, shrimp burger, turkey burger, and of course the chicken wings. I get the hermanaki wings. With the wings, you can get snack size or regular portion. Typically, there is plenty of parking. Occasionally on a big game day, parking can be a challenge, but it is very rare.

Very crispy almost too hard. Comes with ranch dip and ketchup. The hibuscus margarita was perfect, not too sweet. There were soooo many food options I had a hard time choosing, but went with blackened salmon, mashed potatoes and creamed corn. Wow, I was not disappointed. The salmon was perfectly cooked and seasoned, moist and flavorful. I've never seen creamed corn on a menue, this had peppers and fried onions and was delicious. For my birthday they brought 2 scoops of ice cream with Carmel drizzled on top and whip cream and a cherry. My husband got the meatloaf which very good as well; moist and smothered in brown gravy. Everything was seasoned nicely; not bland at all. The atmosphere and the decor is fun and our server Liz was genuinely happy and helpful. Even their wardrobes were fun and garage themed.
