On a business trip to Indianapolis this is a restaurant we decided to visit based on its google rating of 4.7, we figured with the writing that high I had to be pretty good and it lived up to our expectations completely! It was only one thing I didn’t like about this restaurant everything on the menu sounded delicious so trying to pick one of the dishes was very hard especially after waitress explain each dish in detail. I had the Barramundi fish plate and it was cooked to perfection!!!
I attended with a friend. The experience was lovely. Happily, they accommodated my dairy restrictions. The server was the best. The food was plated prettily. Sadly, every dish but the dessert was just "okay" because they were over-salted. I have been there before and do not recall thinking that, so, hopefully it was just an off-night. But I took off a star because of it. As a side-note, was sorry to see they no longer offered a tasting menu. Not many places do that around here. Parking: Extremely limited. Had to park on a private street and walk over. Dietary restrictions: Great at accounting for dietary concerns where able.
Our first time here on a Saturday, with 5:30 reservations I'd made that morning. I'd heard a lot of hype about this place and it was even better than we expected. The food was amazing. We had the fried brussel sprouts, which was a surprisingly large portion for us to split. Just enough blue cheese to make it interesting. I had the pork belly not your typical fatty, weirdly crispy pork belly either, it was like a fat slab of bacon & it was delicious. Pan Asian style with a fried egg to make it creamy, very well balanced. My better half had the Shrimp & Grits, also delicious. A little sweeter than expected but a little heat balanced it out perfectly. The Honey Cake with mascerated berries was the perfect finish, sweet but refreshing. Our server wish I'd gotten her name, blonde with great aviator glasses was really fantastic...very at ease & conversational but professional when describing dishes, not like some rehearsed spiel. Also, it was nice to sit on their enclosed patio in early April but their heaters were cranked up so high that by rhe end of our meal, it was pretty uncomfortable. All in all, a fantastic visit and a must do if you're in the area. Vegetarian options: Many, many vegan options! They note what isn't vegan on the menu rather than just having a couple salad options.
My wife and I love this place service is great everyone is super attentive, our waiter was great sorry don't remember his name. My wife had the barramundi, I had the pork belly, and we both shared the korean tacos and the miso broiled oysters my wifes favorite the price can be hefty but oh so worth every penny. The only small complaint I can come up with is there parking lot is small and tight if you're in a big vehicle but will definitely go again.
Service, staff, atmosphere, food and music were all excellent. The only thing I could say is that the brussel sprouts and kimchi seemed way salty for my taste but were way flavorful. Next time I will just try something else. I am pretty sodium sensitive.Dine in: YesOutdoor seating: YesTakeout: Yes
We like to try out new restaurants whenever we travel for work. This one was a gem. We both enjoyed our food, drinks and the atmosphere. The I assume manager greeted us with a small champaign toast and I observed her going above and beyond to greet all of the guests and make sure things were going well at all of the tables. My gf options were very good!
I love coming to Tinker Street because of the buzzing atmosphere and great service. I would recommend the pork belly and chicken with caviar as they were the best dishes at our table.Dine in: Yes
Food was good, with some dishes being so good carrot gnocchi was richly flavorful and texturally ethereal they made it hard to be impressed or excited by the others halibut was technically flawless with [almost-boringly] classic flavor choices. Desserts stole the show; strawberry ice cream with crystallized basil and fig ice cream were outstanding and the ricotta donuts are not to be missed. In other words, Tinker Street's return is a welcomed one!
We came here for an anniversary dinner and it was fantastic! We had the charcuterie board as an appetizer with GF bread due to wife having Celiac Disease. It was wonderful! I added the duck confit because I’ve been eager to try this for a long time and few places offer the dish. It was delicious and our server informed it is sourced from a local, humane provider doesn’t force-feed. Next I had the braised pork belly and my wife had the cauliflower steak not pictured. She raved about the cauliflower and I really enjoyed the pork belly. For desert my wife had the ice cream flight not pictured and I had the ricotta donuts and it was probably the best desert I’ve had at a restaurant in all of Indianapolis. We had wine and even a complimentary glass for our anniversary. Overall the atmosphere was very nice, the serve was fantastic, and the food was phenomenal. The price was hefty, but worth every penny. 10/10 would recommend and we will definitely be coming back in the future.
Went to Tinker Street for the first time. Would highly recommend. Loved the atmosphere especially with the outdoor seating on a nice, summer day. Staff was great. My friend and I shared an appetizer and I got an entree. Both very delicious with a lot of pescatarian options. Would recommend and definitely planning on going again!
