    Everything about this place is outstanding! Our server, Imani and her support staff were courteous, professional and knowledgeable. Every recommendation was delicious and I will return the next time I visit Indianapolis.

    We usually like coming to this restaurant but they really lost the quality and forgot how to treat people. After our meal, I requested to go order of the banana pudding brûlée and when I opened the box at home without the box moving it was served as a slop bowl. It was so disrespectful. I went back to the restaurant and tried to talk to the manager instead of putting a review. Even worse, the manager didn't even care. For the price of our dinner they should offer a better service.

    Service was great, but I ordered the snitzel and spaetzle, it was dry a tasted awful. My wife liked the salmon. The cook should keep away from trying German dishes. It was a bit pricey for the over all quality of dining experience.

    Michael was a great waiter. Noise level a bit high, but food was pretty good, reasonably priced. Interesting brunch menu with an Easter special. Had biscuits and gravy, bacon maple French toast. Bacon a bit too fatty for me. Hub said his B&G were good, but not as good as he makes at home.
