I will start by saying that their food is almost always fantastic, and that is why we recommended this restaurant for a group of 7 people. We wanted them to know that Indy DOES have great food! Then, it turned into the worst dining experience I have ever had. Apparently in the "small print" on the menu it says they... more

They only have five entrees on the menu are out of one of them. I have a food allergy, so i asked if they could substitute the incredient for something else and they flat out refused.

The wine list, while not enormous,... more

Regina (the "R" in the name) Mehallik has created a warm, cozy yet sophisticated restaurant a short cab ride from Indy central on the edge of trendy Mass Ave. The menu changes constantly as she works to use locally produced and available ingredients.
