- NNancyIndiana •38 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoOur server, Andy, was the best! He made great cocktail recommendations and let us chat between courses. We had the crab dip as an appetizer which was fabulous. We tried the primavera cocktail as well as the paper plane. Both very good. I had the Caesar salad and my friend had the burger. Both are the best versions in town! We finished off with espresso martinis and the butterscotch budino. Amazing! It costs a pretty penny but it’s worth it for a special treat!More infoC3 BarPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Bloomington•4.8
- CChristaVirginia •4 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoMy husband and I are in town for the WWETT show and decided to try it out and omg..AMAZING food!! Some of the best Italian food we have ever had. Everything we had from the bread to the dessert was excellent. The short rib ragu and rigatoni vodka were chefs kiss!!! The homemade pasta is freakin delicious!! We also had the calamari, market green salad with the delicious lemon vinaigrette and the soup of the day which were all fantastic. The service was also amazing. Our waitress Kendra was super friendly and made great recommendations. The atmosphere is very relaxing as well. We loved it so much, we made reservations for another dinner before we leave town. Highly recommend!! You won’t want to miss!!More infoIozzo's Garden of ItalyPrice: Moderate• Italian• Downtown Indy•4.9
- GGinaVIPIndiana •63 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoI have been to Salt numerous times, but this was my husband's first time eating here. He really liked it. We started out with the Skillet Bread & Crab Rangoons. Both were delicious. The skillet bread comes with this honey butter which is so tasty. And the crab rangoons were filled with so much real crab meat. Just awesome. For his entrée, he got the Pan Seared Diver Scallops w/ mashed potatoes. He decided to try two different sauces. The Lemon Butter & Chili Sauce. The lemon butter definitely fit better with the scallops. I ordered Miso Sable Fish w/ Mashed Sweet Potatoes. And I got my fish with the caramel soy sauce. The fish was so buttery and light. Fit so well with my sauce selection. I wish my mashed sweet potatoes came with some cinnamon butter or brown sugar. Felt like they were missing something. For dessert we got the Crème Brulee. It was so delicious!!! We will definitely be back.More infoSalt on MassPrice: Expensive• Seafood• Downtown Indy•4.8
