9 thoughts on “Experts select 10 of the best-designed restaurants and bars in central Indiana

    1. Restaurants are preferred for the quality of menu items, wait staff, and ambiance. These three things are the things create an “experience” which separates a mediocre dining option to a superior one.

    1. Kan Kan is quite interesting but shouldn’t be on this list. It’s a movie theater with “more”. It’s located on near east side next to Spades Park. It’s an underrated neighborhood on the up-in-up.

    1. No kidding. Maybe the bar area as you come in but the decor and atmosphere of their dining areas leaves a lot to be desired. No one should have to pay those prices and sit one foot from other customers on each side of you. No privacy in your conversations and I have no desire to hear others’ conversations.
