50 Best Seafood Restaurants in Indianapolis

“Really excellent and exciting food like heirloom rice and beans from new Orleans, Oaxacan mole, and dishes inspired by local produce. The cocktails and wine selection are world class!!! A shocking amount of rare spirits from Mexican mezcals to Austrian aquavits. The staff are very knowledgeable and friendly. Could not recommend more if you are in Indy!“

“We recommend Salt on Mass for its incredible consistency. The experience is always welcoming and forever delicious. My husband David treated us to a delightful dining experience for Valentine's Day Eve. (I love dining "off holiday" for a more peaceful pace.) We've dined at Salt on Mass many times and continue to be thrilled with our experience. We reserved through Open Table and were seated immediately with our on-time arrival. I love a table with a view of the room's comings and goings, so #41 was ideal, again. We were welcomed by our server Ryan, who explained he was also our bartender. (Love it - special insights on cocktails and wines.) He served us well, attentive but not too much so, and we loved his creative chocolate martini as our "appetizer." :-) We chose our dinner favorites - Chilean Sea Bass with delectable risotto for David and Salmon with expertly grilled asparagus for me. The portions remain appropriately generous, so we split the Key-Lime Chiffon Cake for dessert. Congratulations Johnny and crew for delivering another memory-making visit. Each one leaves us craving the next! Here's to you all! Sincerely satisfied, Garnet and David 2-13-25“

“We went here after a terrible room service experience at the Conrad hotel. So happy we did! The waygu special was fantastic and our server i think his name was Carter, was exceptional as well he even gave us a complimentary apple pie dessert. Thank you!“

“We had what may very well have been the most extraordinary dining experience in our 15+ years living in Indianapolis, thanks to the unmatched hospitality of Sean. He is, without question, the best server we have ever had. His attention to detail, warmth, and genuine care elevated an already phenomenal evening into something truly memorable. From the moment we sat down, everything was flawless. We began with oysters and the French onion soup. Do not skip the soup—it is a masterpiece in a bowl. The Chateaubriand arrived perfectly prepared, accompanied by impossibly good fries and glazed carrots that were simply next level. And just when we thought it could not get any better, the chocolate cake arrived. Rich, decadent, and absolutely unforgettable. Geraldine’s is a gem. But it was Sean who turned our night into something we will be talking about for years. We cannot wait to return, and we will be asking for Sean by name.“

“Great service and tasty food. Food came out super fast and was fresh and delicious.“

“Dude, I think this is the best spot for chicken in Indiana, no cap. 😋🐔💯 Even though I live up north near Chicago, I always hit this place up when I'm in Indy and need some fried chicken, fries, fish, or catfish. 🍗🍟🐟 The chicken is seriously good and clean. ✨🌟👍 I've seen some other places where they don't keep the oil clean, but the owner here cleans it every day. 🧽🧼💯 Plus, the staff and the manager, Hesham, are always super friendly and helpful. 😊🤝🌟“

“Made my Aunt Maggie 99th Birthday’s Celebration so wonderful we will be back next year.“

“My dinner at Harry & Izzy’s was truly one to remember. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere felt both sophisticated and welcoming, combining the charm of an upscale steakhouse with the warmth of a neighborhood favorite. The lighting is soft, the decor elegant, and the buzz of conversation gives the restaurant a lively yet relaxed energy.

Our server greeted us promptly and set the tone for the evening with friendly professionalism. We started with the shrimp cocktail, which lived up to its reputation huge, perfectly chilled shrimp with that signature spicy cocktail sauce that Harry & Izzy’s is famous for. It’s an absolute must-try appetizer.

For the main course, I had the New York strip steak, cooked to a flawless medium rare. The flavor was outstanding tender, juicy, and seared beautifully. My companion ordered the filet mignon, which was equally excellent, paired with creamy mashed potatoes and grilled asparagus. The quality of the ingredients and the attention to detail in preparation really stood out.

The service was efficient and attentive without ever feeling rushed. Drinks were refilled promptly, and the server checked in just the right amount. The wine list was impressive, and our server helped us choose a Cabernet that complemented our steaks perfectly.

For dessert, we shared the bread pudding with bourbon caramel sauce, and it was the ideal finish warm, rich, and beautifully presented.

All in all, Harry & Izzy’s delivers a top-notch dining experience that rivals any high-end steakhouse, but with a friendlier and more relaxed feel. Whether for a business dinner, a date night, or a special occasion, this place never disappoints. Absolutely five stars from me.“

“The food was good. The workers were very friendly. The food was averagely priced. And there was plenty of parking. The atmosphere was pretty laid-back. They were singing happy birthday to a little girl while we were there. The Happy Birthday song what's playing over the intercom it was so cute.

Kid-friendliness: They were singing happy birthday to a little girl. Her cake was a little cupcake with a light on it. So cute“

“Ordered Kitchen sink. Fish, Clams, shrimp and crab cake were incredibly delicious. I had an issue with the 4 percent discount for cash not being honored. I got a business card from them and emailed as soon as I got home.

They replied quickly and escalated to someone higher up and was asked to call. Spoke to Molly Caplinger for 16 minutes and she was so nice, professional and understanding. Sent me a gift card for my troubles and appreciated me bringing the issue to their attention. I will be back! This is how you do business right!!“

“Excellent food, excellent service and Cam was an amazing bartender and server. Highly recommend!“

“Una chulada están super las chelas y la comida está super like“

“Although the servers are supposed to be rude, the interactions were much more toned down than I expected. The interior decorations were more surprising...Overall, it's a good experience. Finding a parking space was more of a nightmare compared to the service, especially when I was visiting on the weekend with events happening nearby.“
