Here, we provide a list of famous restaurants and diners in the Indianapolis metro
area. Use this guide to satisfy your taste buds when either visiting or living
in Indianapolis.
St Elmo Steak House
127 S Illinois St
Indianapolis, IN 46225
317-635-0636
Description: The legend of St. Elmo helped sailors find their way
through the stormy seas. Circle City steaklovers feel the same way about
this downtown carnviore's cavern. Visiting celebs, beautiful people,
atheletes and locals alike pack the mahogany-lined walls seeking its
rich atmosphere and USDA prime cuts of beef every night. For its part,
the restaurant doesn't disappoint from the Tiffany room's paneled walls
and tin ceiling, to the obscenely big shrimp cocktail and seemingly
endless juicy porterhouse steaks and veal chops.
Le Peep
301 N Illinois St
Indianapolis, IN 46204
317-237-3447
Description: Some people dabble in a little bit of everything, while
others do only one thing, but do it amazingly well. Le Peep falls into
the latter category. With a menu comprised soley morning cuisine, this
national chain truly makes breakfast the most important meal of the day.
Pancakes are a house favorite and come in a number of lip-smacking
flavors, including granola, blueberry and wheat germ (think IHOP on
steroids). Other popular options include French toast, omelets and
Belgian waffles.
Cheeseburger In Paradise
4670 Southport Crossings Dr
Indianapolis, IN 46237
317-883-4386
Description: The young, old and Hawaiian-shirt clad have been called
home to the mother ship -- Jimmy Buffett's popular chain restaurant.
Buffett's outdone himself in creating a tropical atmosphere, perfect for
Hoosiers in landlocked Indianapolis. Murals of colorful sunsets and
island memorabilia, like surf boards, palm trees, a wave runner and
more, surround you as you dine. Fare includes six different
cheeseburgers, of course, as well as seafood, sandwiches, chicken,
salads, pizzas and more -- most with a Caribbean flare.
P.F. Chang's China Bistro
8601 Keystone Xing
Indianapolis, IN 46240
317-815-8773
Description: Where there's good food, reasonable prices and
super-friendly service, the lines are bound to form. But don't let that
stop you from experiencing the freshness of Asian dishes at P.F. Chang's
China Bistro at Keystone at the Crossing. Like its sister restaurant
Downtown at Circle Centre, Chang's is consistently busy. Use the wait to
more closely examine the reproduction of sculptures and artifacts
depicting the T'ang Dynasty; The pair of imposing horse sculptures are
especially favored by children. It is tempting to devote the entire meal
to appetizers.
Three Sisters Cafe
6360 Guilford Ave
Indianapolis, IN 46220
317-257-5556
Description: Located in a restored Victorian home just a few blocks
north of downtown Broad Ripple, Three Sisters is still considered a
vegetarian mecca of sorts. Open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, the
restaurant specializes in both vegetarian and vegan entrees, soups,
salads and organic coffees. The decor is overtly Bohemian, with a mix of
colonial and garage sale furniture outfitting the various rooms. There's
also local artwork exhibited on the walls.
Iaria's Italian Restaurant
317 S College Ave
Indianapolis, IN 46202
317-638-7706
Description: The family-owned and operated business had been dishing up
Mediterranean fare since 1912, but a recent shift in the family power
grid closed the doors temporarily. With the fourth generation securely
at the reins, the secret family recipes that made Iaria's popular are
flowing out of the kitchen again. Crispy thin pizza dripping with cheese
and tangy sauce, savory sausage sandwiches and tender chicken piccata
are among the house specialties.
Acapulco Joe's Mexican Foods
365 N Illinois St
Indianapolis, IN 46204
317-637-5160
Description: An authentic Mexican eatery with "native" decor and a
traditional menu, Acapulco Joe's has been serving up chips and salsa to
a regular crowd for more than 20 years. Although some consider the
locale to be "a small step up from Chi Chi's," Acapulco Joe's has a cult
following in Indianapolis that keeps the place packed.

Cio's Pizza & Pasta
3855 E 96th St
Indianapolis, IN 46240
317-846-8051
Description: Cio's Pizza & Pasta boasts a menu full of "authentic
Italian dishes and New York style pizza." The restaurant, which has been
open since 2002, offers a variety of dishes including pastas, salads,
sandwiches and pizza all made to order and created fresh daily. Try the
Penne Alla Vodka Sauce, the Pasta Contadina or the Fresh Mozzarella
Salad. The pizza is thin and crispy -- an homage to Gotham's finest.
Cio's also offers a strong menu of wine, beer and specialty drinks.
Bonefish Grill
1001 N State Road 135
Greenwood, IN 46142
317-884-3992
Description: Fresh fish delivered, inspected and cut daily before being
cooked over an oak-burning grill has made this emerging chain wildly
popular with local seafood enthusiasts. The interior is inviting with
three-dimensional seascape murals gracing the walls. Metal mango-tree
sculptures separate the dining room from the bar, and spacious booths
line the sides of the room. The sophisticated yet casual ambiance and
gentle lighting will have you convinced that you're dining alone -- not
inside a sprawling 6,000-square-foot space that seats over 200.
Ruth's Chris Steak House
45 S. Illinois St.
Indianapolis, IN 46204
317-633-1313
Description: chain restaurant with an original feel, this long time
Indianapolis steakhouse now has two locations in the city. Using only
the finest aged USDA prime beef, Ruth's Chris serves up more than a
half-dozen sizzling steaks that are big enough to share. The appetizers
will please seafood fans, while soups and salads dominate the rest of
the starter menu. There are few choices for the diner that may be
watching their waistline. The petite filet topped with jumbo gulf shrimp
may be your best bet if you're counting calories. The steak and lobster
combination is one of the more popular entrees. The combo lets you pair
any steak with an Australian lobster tail or whole fresh Maine lobster.
