What started as a food truck over 10 years ago put Byrnes on the circle city map! Opening our brick in mortar in 2015 has given us the most enjoyable opportunity to serve the Butler-Tarkington, Sobro, and Meridian Kessler Neighborhoods. We are known for our thin and crispy crust. Topped with heaps of quality, local, and fresh ingredients our pizza will always satisfy your cravings. Alongside pizza, we offer salads, sandwiches, pasta and fantastic deserts!

We love to host afternoon lunches, intimate dates, family outings, quick meals before or after a game at Hinkle or a show at Clowes Hall, and even private events and catering parties.

Root & Bone is always excellent! The food and drinks are consistently created and served with care, and the service is top-notch (including Lindsey on our latest trip!). We've been to dinner and brunch several times, and it has become one of our neighborhood favorites.

The Meridian has a neighborhood feel but with class. The ambiance is good for celebratory dinners for a group or an intimate dinner for two. You can expect to be attended to. The reception is warm. And you feel safe in the space and not rushed. Catlin was our server and she was exceptional! What I enjoy most is if you have special dietary needs, they listen and accommodate as best they can, which in my experience has proven to be above my expectations. I would recommend The Meridian to my friends.

Don't make it here often, but when I do it is always a treat. I love the pasta and the vibe from the speakeasy. Only complaint would be having to wait more than 30 minutes past my reservation time for a table. Was not an issue this time, but if heading to the theatre could be.
