Delighted to have discovered this place. We had a delicious meal that included a shared appetizer, shared main entree, and separate desserts. Enjoyed a bottle of very good wine. Decor is cozy and comfortable. Perhaps most outstanding was the service. Shaunda was beyond excellent. She definitely aimed to please. Shaunda was efficient, professional, and very, very friendly. Another server (did not get her name) also helped by arranging for us to pay for part of our friends’ dinner, one of whom was celebrating his birthday. Will definitely return to Portofino’s

Amazing food. The octopus was cooked perfectly. The scallops were amazing. The ricotta donuts were insane. It was our anniversary and they made us feel special. We really appreciated the attention to detail that is so rare in the service industry these days. These folks are professionals.

Fortville

About the restaurant

After years of working Downtown Indianapolis, Executive Chef/Owner Jake Burgess decided to come home and open an establishment that delivered the style of service and quality of food he had become accustomed to. FoxGardin is tucked away on quaint Main Street in Fortville.

Minutes to Geist, Fishers, Klipsch Music Center, and I-69, and only 25-30 from downtown Indy, FoxGardin Kitchen & Ale is a perfect spot to sneak away, while still being close to everything!

***FoxGardin Kitchen & Ale is a 21+ establishment. ***

5 stars – Perfect Anniversary Dinner! We celebrated our anniversary at FoxGardin and had an amazing experience from start to finish. The food was outstanding—definitely recommend starting with the baked goat cheese appetizer (and be sure to order extra bread—it’s that good!). I had the Best Damn Chicken Parm, which absolutely lived up to its name, and my husband enjoyed the Shrimp and Scallop Primavera special, which was fresh and flavorful. Portions were generous without being overwhelming. The service was top-notch (thank you, Sarah B.)—attentive, friendly, and really made us feel special. We’ll definitely be back!
