Best Authentic Restaurants in Fountain Square

We love coming here! Great food and service. Easy place to take our kids too.

My two daughters and I were there for Thanksgiving lunch which we have done for the last three years. The experience has always been great but this year was outstanding as we were served by Amanda B. which made the whole experience a delight. She greeted us with a huge smile and we could tell that this lunch was going to be one of our best ever. We chatted with her like we had known each other for years due to her amazing personality. She answered any questions we had and just made us not feel rushed. She brought our drinks while we looked over the selections again and promptly took our order once we were ready. She did offer us some of their pretzel rolls which by the way are amazing. Our entrees were served within a few minutes which was oof the hook since this is one of their busiest days. The turkey was tasty and not dried out along with the sausage dressing that was a change from the standard form. All of the food was prepared excellent and the portions were far more than any of us could consume hench take out boxes for us. The dessert was to die for with a pumpkin tart and whipped cream. All of the staff was great from the hostess to Amanda B. that made our day as we found out she had three kids of her own after asking. I know working on a holiday sucks but she never showed that side. We will be back next year and hopefully Amanda B. will be there!

I have been coming to Iozzo’s for lunch for the last 15 years. We treated good friends to a dinner to celebrate a few birthdays! Phil was our server and was outstanding! It felt like a dinner at home and like we knew him forever! He shared his family history with our Italian heritage friends and it made me smile knowing my Macedonian heritage was very similar to his family’s stories! The food, atmosphere and service were outstanding!

Very nice and good food and drinks zzzxzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

We were in town with a group of couples for the football game. We found Spoke & Steel while looking through available reservation options for a nice dinner/drinks, within walking distance of our hotel. (Downtown was crazy busy for the game). They did not disappoint! We were greeted and seated immediately upon arrival. S&S has a great ambiance, OUTSTANDING FOOD, and an amazing staff. Our waitress was wonderful and attentive…we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We would all highly recommend…and will plan to return next time we are in Indy!
