Best Restaurants with a Happy Hour in West Indy

From the moment we walked in, to the time we left, everything was perfection. The ambiance is incredible. The beautiful lighting, big windows looking out onto the city, the comfortable leather booth seating, and striking decor- everything around us felt special. The drinks were spot on, with a unique espresso martini. And the food, WOW! Everyone’s meal was phenomenal. My pork chop was perfectly prepared, my husband had the lamb and gave it a 10/10. Our friends had the dry aged Ribeye and Chicken dish and they were both impressed. Our server Ben never missed a beat and helped guide us through the menu. I highly recommend dining at Commission Row as soon and as often as you can! Oh, and don’t forget to stop downstairs at Mel’s Speakeasy for a drink! Such a cool and swanky vibe down there with an eclectic list of drinks to choose from!

We splurge once a year to come here and it never disappoints. It’s not super fancy so we don’t feel out of place, but it’s a very nice place for a special date night. The food and drinks are always delicious. This visit I got the filet which was *chefs kiss* as always, but the brussel sprouts were where the meal really shined. The toasted ravioli appetizer was perfect. My husband loves the shrimp cocktail, with the signature famous cocktail sauce they share with their sister restaurant St. Elmo’s. If you’ve somehow never tried this gem, do yourself a favor and go. Worth every penny.

The Eagle is always one of our favorite. Great chicken sandwiches and shareable sides!

First time eating here. Party of two. An overall very pleasant surprise. Service was fantastic and the food was outstanding. While they have a limited menu for a Mexican restaurant, everything that we ate was super, and everything that we saw go by, looked really good.  They don’t play traditional Mexican music, but opt for more pop style music, which can be a bit annoying. We did not like the layout or the numerous small 2-top tables that they have. The 2-tops are so small, there’s hardly room for your food when it arrives. Too crowded. With all that said, we would go back. PS. - the $17 margarita was quite small for the price tag, but it was tasty. 

I am very pleased with my dining experience. The food quality and preparation thereof, with the exception of poultry, was outstanding. As to the poultry, it was very, very dry and I declined subsequent offerings. The beef, lamb and pork were outstanding, as were all side dishes. As to service, the wait staff was equally outstanding. Very, very attentive. As a customer, I found their initial attempt to upsell somewhat excessive. Were I ownership, however, I would have been quite pleased with their attempts and would reward them accordingly. Will I return? Certainly so.
