Best Lunch Restaurants in Carmel / Westfield

Exquisite from Start to Finish – A Carmel Gem Anthony’s Chophouse in Carmel delivers a dining experience that’s nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere struck a perfect balance between upscale sophistication and warm hospitality. The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the Wagyu filets—cooked to absolute perfection with a melt-in-your-mouth richness that sets a new standard for steak. Equally impressive were the seared scallops—delicately prepared and bursting with flavor, each bite felt like a nod to fine culinary craftsmanship. Cocktails were equally memorable. Each drink was thoughtfully crafted, balanced, and bold—adding to the overall elevated experience. The bar program here is clearly curated with care and creativity. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or entertaining clients, Anthony’s sets the bar high. This is, without question, one of the finest dining experiences in the greater Indianapolis area.

Took our adult daughter for her birthday - had never been to the Carmel location. WOW. Yes it's a bit pricey but the portion sizes more than make up for that. The food was phenomenally good. And the cake is simply to die for. Will definitely find a reason to do again!

Always GREAT service at VERDE! I have been going to Verde since DAY 1 ! Best skinny margaritas in town ! Excellent menu - Plenty of options and Huge portions ! Aturo is an excellent server !!

Great food. The fresh prince sushi roll was outstanding !!! Service was exceptional!

They did a great job with our fairly large group reservation at lunch time, allowed us to add an 11th person with no trouble, and had no issues with splitting the check. All in all it was great!
