Umi Grill

Reviewed By indymacthedog - Indianapolis, IN

If you are interested in a great sushi place, look no further! The menu has just about anything you want, and is always top grade. The wait staff are very good making suggestions or explaining anything. The ambience is calm & peaceful. You can make reservations for a booth, if you want more of a private setting. We go here often, & have never been disappointed.!

Piloni's Italian Restaurant

Reviewed By Steve B - Paris, Illinois, United States

After seeing the movie 'The Greatest Showman', which one should see by the way - it is just a great pure entertainment movie, we called and got into Piloni's bar room for supper. Friends joined us and we all had a delightful meal. Two specials on the menu, the Oso Buca and the Grilled Scallops were by had by two of the party. Both were excellent and were served with sides that matched the entrée. Veal Marsala is the favorite choice of my wife and again was excellent - one can not do wrong by ordering this entrée. I had not had a pizza in quite a while and had the small meat-lovers pizza- crust is thin and crispy and had just the right amount of sauce, cheese, and meats on it. Ordered a canoli for desert- it was tasty, and they have several desert options. Wines by the glass are all good, and they also have a full bar for other choices. The front part of the restaurant is more of a family room and they have seating in the back bar for a limited number of tables. For family with kids, it is better in front; if adult only, ask to be seated in the back dining area in the bar.

Reviewed By Robert B - Lafayette, Indiana, United States

This is one of the best steakhouses I have visited! It is an old stable for a brewery and the atmosphere is perfect. This is a great place for a romantic dinner because it is somewhat private. Be certain to try the creamed corn and the bread pudding is awesome.

We stopped in here for lunch on our anniversary trip. We loved the history of the building. The decor was also cool! We ordered burgers and a couple of beers we'd never had before. The food was excellent and the beers were a nice change for us. Service was friendly and
prompt!

Chick-Fil-A

Reviewed By Sojournwithme - Xenia, Ohio

It's Chick-Fil-A so nothing new as far as the food and polite service goes. Yes, this one is as crowded or more crowded than every other CFA. The food is not an issue, you will be happy with you sandwich and chocolate shake, I know I was. Parking is the issue, here. The lot was so full peole parked in the adjacent mall. Add to that, the police showed up to deal with some sort of restraining order disturbance and things got real crowded. While backing out of my spot I almost backed into a car backing out behind me. or did they almost hit me? Fortunately, the nice person (aren't all CFA clients nice?) waiting for our spots sounded the horn and we both stopped. My bad for not checking manually and relying on the rear view camera in my car. Too bad they don't show you who is about to hit you in the side of your rear quarter panel! By all means stop in for a sandwich and a shake, just be prepared to park far away and deal with a small crowded lot.

Fifi's Lunch Box

Reviewed By BOVCAT - Chicago, Illinois

My only regret is I've never eaten here before. Nice menu options -- some unique options from the ordinary. Absolutely loved a roast pork sandwich and the Angry Balls (Hash Brown Casserole balls deep fried and covered in Siricha). Hamburger was excellent too. Also, always appreciate great service and our waitress did an amazing job!
