Wood-fired pizzas, hand-crafted pastas, housemade salami and cured sausages fill the restaurant's menu which can be enjoyed family-style or a la carte. With an open kitchen, and a comfortable atmosphere, Indaco can seat approximately 85 guests inside for a casual night of food and drinks. The wine list is focused on affordable Italian varietals, the Gin & Tonic cocktail is on tap, and the fresh sodas are made in-house. Large windows fill the restaurant with natural light that reflects off the white subway tile, wood accents and butcher block tables.

    They just opened for lunch during weekdays and was our first visit for lunch (been there for dinner a few times). Great experience. Had a pizza and a salad to share with my wife. Prices feel a tad high, especially for the salad during lunch, but you get quality food and service (you want cheap counter service, go to Fuel or Inizzio). Great additional option in SouthEnd for lunch.

    We recently enjoyed the Feast of the Seven Fishes at Chapter 6, and it was a great dining experience. The pacing of the seven-course meal was well-timed, allowing plenty of time to enjoy each dish without feeling rushed. Our server, Tanner, was friendly and knowledgeable, which made the evening even better. The dishes were all well-prepared and paired nicely with the additional cocktail, making for a satisfying meal. Chapter 6 delivered a pleasant evening overall. We’d definitely recommend it for a special occasion or a unique dining experience!
