With an open kitchen, and a comfortable atmosphere, Indaco can seat approximately 85 guests inside for a casual night of food and drinks. The wine list is focused on affordable Italian varietals, the Gin & Tonic cocktail is on tap, and the fresh sodas are made in-house. Large windows fill the restaurant with natural light that reflects off the white subway tile, wood accents and butcher block tables. An open kitchen invites guests to keep an eye on the action while enjoying the sights and smells of Italian cooking. During warmer months, a 44-seat patio invites guests to dine al fresco.

Atmosphere is fabulous, the service is outstanding as was the food. Cannot recommend enough! They were especially attentive to my dietary restrictions, + we did not feel rushed to finish our bottle of wine. This place is a gem.

Great restaurant experience! Definitely bringing my family to try the brunch menu. Already a favorite of mine in Charlotte. Service was excellent, the kitchen also does a great job with flavor and presentation. I loved that they have live music on weekends. The Limonada de coco and Bronx Old Fashioned are a must if you’re visiting this spot. Thank you to the Muraya team for a great time.

They just opened for lunch during weekdays and was our first visit for lunch (been there for dinner a few times). Great experience. Had a pizza and a salad to share with my wife. Prices feel a tad high, especially for the salad during lunch, but you get quality food and service (you want cheap counter service, go to Fuel or Inizzio). Great additional option in SouthEnd for lunch.
