Consistently Good – Great service Well prepared and served food from steaks to burgers Good wine selection including their house wines. Do the shrimp cocktail at least once if you can-huge prawns, must eat with fork.

PERFECT FOR VALENTINE'S DAY! – My husband and I have come here the past two years for Valentine's Day. We also went for Mother's Day. Each time, we have had excellent service and wonderful food. Their caesar salad is the best I've had anywhere and the steak melted in my mouth. My husband ordered a baked potato that was almost bigger than his steak. We got dessert to go. Chocolate cake is to die for. The carrot cake is amazing. The red velvet cake isn't perfect, but wasn't too bad either. Great wine list too!

Stick with the carrot cake - I can't testify to anything else, your honor... – I dined in at EM's unexpectedly Friday night. As I drove by Ruth's Chris (which had a line out the door), I was excited to see whether the same business was brimming out of EM's. Maybe this should have been a sign... I arrived and the restaurant was fairly empty with the exception of a few seated tables all toward one closing section. I had planned on reading while waiting for service but the lighting was too poor. The restaurant atmosphere is cal... read more

Worth Every Penny! – My husband and I came here for my birthday. When you make a reservation, they ask if it's a special occasion and when you arrive, the waitstaff already knows. We started with the crabcakes (OK, not the best) and tomatoe/onion/bleu salad (fresh and delicious). They are one of only 2 places in Indy that use "prime" steak, which is the highest grade possible and we could definitely taste the difference. The meat melted in our mouths and had wonderful flavor. Good, attentive service and tabelside bananas fos... read more

Overated – I had heard good things about the Fort Wayne restuarant; Indianapolis was disapointing. After waiting 20 minutes to be seated, we found that the staff was very unattentive and lacked knowlege of wine and the chef was unskilled in the preparation of lobster. After the lobster was brough to the table, it took 15 minutes to get the wait staffs attention to ask for drawn butter. The filet was mediocre, although appropriatley cooked. On a positive note, the crème brule was good, but who can't burn cream.

sales manager – The bartenders are great and will rememeber you by name if returning. We have been there several times on business and have enjoyed our great food and live entertainment. This is the place to go if looking for great food and service. The shrimp cocktail is delicious and the filets mouth-watering. We have been to their Ft. Wayne location which is excellent and out looking forward to them opening in Chicago.
