Limited appeal overpriced menu? Check.
Owners perceived as arrogant and out-of-touch? Check.
Out of the way destination? Check.
Bad results they deserve? Checkmate.
Sounds like the wheels have already fallen off & someone’s pride is in the way to see it. Love that new farting deer mural though…
Is that a mug shot?
Why is the guy that owns Milktooth “selling possessions to pay rent”? After reading the article, I have zero idea what kind of menu they have and it sounds like the owners don’t either, although rest assured whatever it is, it will be overpriced. Pass.
It’s actually an awesome restaurant. The guy is a brilliant chef and he is an artist. Extraordinary cuisine prepared thoughtfully by great chefs costs money. I don’t find the menu to be the slightest bit “overpriced”. It’s certainly in line with cuisine of this quality in other cities if not less expensive. Ultimately, you get what you pay for. Beholder is a great addition to the food scene here and I hope they can turn it around financially. I don’t know why the posts here are so needlessly negative. In full disclosure I have no connection to Beholder or financial interest in the restaurant. Just someone who appreciates what some really hard working and brilliant chefs are trying to do for the Indy food scene.
We tried it once. I was taken back by the ‘baby sized’ drinks and the full price they charged for them. We opted for some appetizers and thought they were very well prepared and while the price is on the higher side, not excessive. We just could not get over the baby drinks and have not been back.
We love Beholder! I agree with Daniel S. I also do not think they are overpriced for what they offer. Cocktails are also very good and creatively balanced. I do think they are a bit ahead of time as far as location but the near east side continues to grow. I hope they reach their goals and continue to stay open.
As rude as Brooks is, I could not be more delighted to read this.
My wife and I visit Beholder with some regularity for the exceptional wine list. Josh is skilled sommelier and always has time to make great recommendations for us. On top of that, Jon’s culinary skill is top notch and stopping by for a bottle of wine and a few small plates makes it an affordable destination for us when looking for a night out. I highly recommend checking it out if you haven’t already.
I live in the neighborhood, and guess I hold a grudge against the owner. As a developer/builder, that has built many homes in Holy Cross/Windsor/Springdale I was thrown off by his social media outbursts about property values rising. I live less than a block away in a new home, and have never eaten there. I feel they have too much pride to admit they were out of line, but some type of neighborhood focused lunch/cocktail idea would go a long way. Don’t want to see it closed.
Side note: don’t appreciate the writer of the article’s negative view on the neighborhood. Disappointed, as you brought no value to the east side at all.
