Best Dinners At Home Indianapolis Near Me

Owen Sweitzer: I'd have to rate this among the best meals of my life. Steak was perfect, I got the 12 oz filet Oscar Style (which adds crab, asparagus, and bearnaise sauce) which is such a good addition. The creamed spinach was wonderful, and a large serving that was definitely sharable. The onion rings were fantastic, breaded in a way that reminds me of calamari, which I found to be amazing. I highly recommend upgrading to the lobster bisque if given the option, because this was extremely rich, creamy, and tasty.The atmosphere was very fun, gave me an old time speakeasy vibe. Our table was down stairs, around a few hallways which added to this vibe. (The restaurant was quite large!)The service was extremely attentive and it is obvious that St. Elmo is very selective of their staff, with very high expectations. I felt well taken care of.One thing I'd recommend is don't come with a tight budget in mind. I would have missed out some amazing dishes if I had been worrying about picking the cheapest option. This was a very expensive meal but in every way I believe it was well worth the cost. Definitely a treat-your-self kinda dinner. I hope I get another chance to come back to Indianapolis to have another meal here.

James Heersema: The steak was great as always! We even had our 10 month old there and the staff were very welcoming and accomodating. It gets quite loud... I don't know if there are different sections that are quieter than others but we were in the room behind the bar and by the time we finished dinner, it was packed and loud.Celiac knowledge but no promises of cross contamination but we didn't have an issue. They even remade a plate because they were unsure about something. We didn't even ask them to remake it!Dietary restrictions: Celiac knowledge but no promises of cross contamination but we didn't have an issue.

Bill Loeb: The Good-hostess stand was run quite well. April is a front a front end rock star.-Lobster bisque was amazing. White bean soup excellent-waiter was outstandingthe bad-4 steaks, none cooked properly, 2 overcooked 2 undercookedthe ugly-getting a drink while waiting was exceptionally difficult. downstairs they wouldn't even acknowlege me. Upstairs took a while-while at a conference the next day, I heard some frineds complaining about their steaks at St. Elmos and their plans to go elsewhere-wrote a friendly but informative note to GM Richard Edwards and didn't get a response.bad night?or how things are these days?dunno, but I will be going to Ruth's Chris if I return to Indy

Jacob Paulsen: Visiting from out of town and was treated to dinner here. Service was fantastic and the history here is amazing. Everybody said their steak was amazing except the 2 people who ordered the tomahawk. Those were ok but not special. Everyone in town told us to order the shrimp cocktail. I think it's an inside joke because that thing will kill you. Maybe you will like it but consider yourself warned. Had a great time because I was with great friends.

Bryndon Preston: It's elegant, the service is amazing, and the food is absolutely delicious. It's safe for people with food allergies because everything is made from scratch in the kitchen.Our meal was beautifully presented, and our server did an incredible job guiding us through the meal and the choices available. This is one of the few places in town and in the Midwest where you can get a legitimate crab cake. It was So Good! The Sea Bass was incredible and perfectly prepared. Every part of this meal was crafted with care.If you want to "Wow" someone with a dining experience, Tony's is a fantastic choice. These are not Texas Roadhouse prices, but they aren't any more expensive than Sullivan's or Ruth's Chris, and the food is phenomenal!!For your next big meal or celebration, give Tony's a try. You won't be sorry that you did!Dietary restrictions: The food is made from scratch and all dietary restrictions can be accommodated. If you have questions about your restrictions, please contact the restaurant in advance.

Deidra Loyd: This was my first time here. The staff was friendly and engaging. The atmosphere was beautiful, and the ambiance was there! We started off with cocktails. They were good and well balanced. I had a (2) margaritas, and my friend had lemon drop martinis. The fresh bread and butter spread was delicious. I had a wedge salad that was fresh and nice and crispy. My friend had crab cakes that she said were "just ok." Our entrees were the Ribeye, and she had I believe the T-bone. This is where the problems began. I requested my steak to be prepared well...no pink....my friend requested hers be medium, and we ordered loaded baked potatoes. The food was a little slow to come out, but that wasn't too bad, as we were enjoying our drinks. When the food finally arrives, they are cooked inaccurately. Mine was as she'd requested and vice versa. The baked potatoes were luke-warm and tasted old. The server took our food back to be corrected, and the manager came to address us. He was friendly and genuinely concerned. The food came back... still not good. I was given the same steak... cooked to the point that it was totally dry and tough ( i know i asked for well done, but geesh)and my friends' steak was various temperatures and levels of doneness. Mine was so bad I couldn't eat it. To top it off, there was barely any seasoning, and no matter how much salt I and steak sauce, I added flavor still evaded my pallet. The replacement baked potatoes were just as bad if not worse than the 1st ones. When the manager came out to check on us, we expressed our disappointment to him. We told him we would still pay as the communication was mostly to help them improve for the next customer. He was apologetic and offered us a free dessert and took 1 of the baked potatoes . My friend was not happy with our server and felt as if he was rushing and dismissive. He wasn't that bad imo, however I did understand how she felt. Overall I was not satisfied with my experience. For a dining experience that cost over $280 I had higher expectations. Needless to say we will not be back. How do you do so badly serving up the main thing you're featuring....Tony's Steak House had horrible steak. I still wanted a good steak, so the next day, I made my own and it was delicious. Oh I also got sick that night throwing up with diarrhea so that absolutely did not help my opinion of my experience with Tony's.

Caitlyn Jones: Everything was amazing! We had a large group, but Angela did a great job! Very friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive. I had the filet mignon and it was delicious! You have to try the sweet potatoes! I’m not a huge sweet potato fan, but those were like eating a dessert! Definitely recommend!

Jasmine May: Service is amazing the food isn’t .

Mier Cat: The dry aged New York strip bone in is to die for! Highly recommend! Chocolate martini is great as well. Very nice server.

Wendy Buckler: Our party of 6 celebrated 2 birthdays. I messed up on Open Table and made our reservation at the wrong location. They were quick to find us a place in the bar to accommodate. Lucky we were dining early that night. Service was impeccable as expected and the entrees were delightful. The sides were fine. The desserts were average. Hubby had the bone in ribeye, which I normally won’t even try but I had a bite and it was beautifully seasoned and melted in my mouth! I ordered the Chilean sea bass and it was perfectly cooked and seasoned. It came on a bed of oats, which I did at all. Not sure who inspired that but next time, I’ll be asking for a sub on that. Friends ordered the Pappardelle fra diavolo and split it and still took home leftovers. They said it was spicy but so good and would highly recommend it. Another ordered the shrimp and grits, which came with a coffee based sauce so what your normally see as a light colored dish was brown. He loves coffee and enjoyed the dish but said he would not recommend it. Said the coffee overpowered the dish. The last order was the pistachio pesto orecchiette, which was also a giant order. We all felt like it was a little dry and could use a tad more sauce but it was delicious. Our family sized sides included Mac & cheese, blah, nothing special, Bourbo whipped sweet potatoes, yum!, and creamed spinach, bland. I forgot we did order a jumbo lump crab cake, which perfectly describes its perfection. Would highly recommend it. For dessert, our birthday guy and gal were each brought a confection that were shared by everyone and neither was completely consumed. I ordered the crème brûlée and felt like was having a pudding. Bring your appetite and your piggy bank but so worth it!

Peter Kennedy: My wife and I went there tonight for our 25th anniversary. Food was amazing! I had a steak and my wife have the pesto pasta. After we finished with our dinner, they surprised us with a wonderful chocolate cake for our anniversary! Our servers, Zay and Bobby, we absolutely awesome!! We will definitely be going back!

bryanbennett davenport: Dinner at Tony's for Father's day. Party of five. The atmosphere at this restaurant is fantastic. The Tuna Tartare and the Beef Tartar appetizers are fantastic. The steaks were all excellent. Service was spot on. Great attention to detail. Tony's is our go to spot for the special family event. It never disappoints, and we look forward to returning. Returned to Tony's on 02-20-2023 for dinner. As always it was excellent. I highly recommend the crab cake. Not a cheap evening, but great food, great atmosphere, great service. This is fine dining!

Jeff Westbrook: Cool spacious atmosphere, live music and thankfully not dungeon dark like so many higher end eateries. Enthusiastic and knowledgablestaff, great wine suggestion from our server Bill. We both tried the filet, and I think between the server, the cook and the delivery person my wife and my steaks got switched.Other than that all the food was top notch, good flavors and cooked correcly, although lacking some inspiration at this price point.Likely to return and try more of the menu

Marlowe Washington: The experience at Tony's was marvelous! I especially enjoyed our server Alexander Williams who was a class act by himself, and he was great! Please promote him, ok!!!

L Buddy: Excellent Service !

Rob G: VERY rarely do I give a 10/10 restaurant experience, but it's well deserved. I was recommended Tony's because it is very hard to find a "Pittsburgh style" black and blue rare steak. For me, any experience starts as soon as you walk through the door. I was greeted promptly and professionally as soon as I came up the stairs. I sat at the far end of the bar on a quiet night and was again greeted promptly by the outstanding bartender Payton (apologies if I spelled it wrong). She was incredibly charming and delightful to talk to, but also knowledgeable with steak. I ordered the strip in Pittsburgh style black and blue fashion. It quickly arrived and was absolutely perfect. I have been to many big name steakhouses across the country, and this was a top tier experience. Good restaurants need to deliver a quality product with quality staff. This has both. 10/10

c b: We came here right after getting married and Tony's did not dissapoint. My husband and I even received complimentary champagne from the manager, who came over to congratulate us. The food was amazing (highly recommend the crab cakes) and the service was even better. Our waiter, Zay, was fantastic as was every single employee we had the pleasure of speaking with. This dinner was the cherry on top of a perfect day and we will definitely return.

Jessica lamb: Service was good -Andrew was my waiter and he was kind, patient, and prompt. He answered my questions (i had an few)and was very friendly and respectful. I noticed the overall working staff working and overall being respectful.Food- it was good but not like (omg) I usually order a steak but the price here is more than some of the similar establishments nearby known for steaks and honestly i didn’t see anyone with any. I ordered some grilled chicken which was very very very good but not amazing (EM nearby is better) the pasta with Lemon garlic sauce the waiter recommended was very good and light tasting just as he stated. So for that I would say it was refreshing and good. The sides here were all CERY VERY VERY GOOD!!!!Environment-The main thing I didn’t like it that I was seated on the balcony literally stuck between way to close tables and a rail which I am scared of heights so I was like oh my this is a lot to take it. The noise level is a little too high but it was just. If you go I’d request a booth downstairs it seems more open and comfortable than these pushed together tables but that doesn’t bother other people as it does me. Anyway overall a solid 4 stars. They also gave my daughter a free desert for her birthday and that actually read the notes and knew it as her birthday so for I was appreciative. I would probably return and ask for a booth. The hamburger was $17 with a side so I think that price is a steal for a quality hamburgerOh and GET THE MAC AND CHEESE!

JaQuon Mitchell: Really nice cool looking inside. The food was great. The service was amazing! Definitely recommend.

Kelia: Best steak I've ever tasted. Go for the lunch special, 10oz ribeye medium rare. The seasoning on it is perfection.The lunch special will cost $30-$40. We went for a birthday and had a reservation ahead of time. They brought a little dessert with a lit candle and even had a happy birthday card!On another note, the fried green tomatoes were quite tasty. They paired it with a remoulade sauce.Parking: Parking lot is shared on the plaza so it can get packed on the weekend.

Michael Benjamin Young: Our server was fantastic, the ambiance adequate, and the food was quite good. Went with an old fashioned, the shrimp cocktail, and the prime meatloaf.The mashed needed more seasoning and the bourbon pour was quite small for $16. Otherwise no complaints.

Elaine Arias: I have been to this restaurant at least 15 times with my fiancé and the food is amazing but the management is absolutely horrendous and unprofessional. If you go in there and there’s a manager name, Sarah, then I would walk out immediately because she is very discriminative. I highly recommend that if you go in there that you make sure that she is not working. There’s already a lawsuit on her. She is extremely judge mental for no reason. Especially when you’re spending between two and $400 for a lunch.

Adam Smith-McCombs: We had an amazing evening with great food and a nice atmosphere. All of the food we ordered was delicious. The scallops meted in your mouth and a delicious succotash. The Woodford bread pudding was amazing with it's salted caramel core topped with a heaping pile of whipped cream and finished with a drizzle of Woodford reserve. Looking forward to going back and will ask for Brice to be our server again! The team was attentive and helpful all throughout the evening.
