I went to Spoke and Steele on Sunday morning for brunch before the Colts game. Well worth it. The food was excellent (I recommend the yoghurt parfait by the way) and the service was very good too. Next time I'm in downtown Indy, I'll stop by again.

Waitress was great however drinks took forever. Bartender was slow, too busy smoozing guys sitting at bar. Wine list is atrociously marked up, so much that I just wanted a Stella, then that took like 20 minutes before they brought me something else as the keg blew. Said it was free so I appreciated that, however they never did bring original beer as promised. Two of three steaks were overcooked. They wanted medium and medium-rare. The rare steak was mediocre at best as it was 40% fat. Parm fries were great. Have to be better places in Indy to choose from.

I attended the Swiftie pre-concert dinner party on Sunday and it was extremely disappointing. It was held in a conference type room with no decorations and was very boring. It was not easy to socialize because of the set up and felt very uncomfortable. All they did was play Taylor’s music and provide a buffet. The food was good but not even close to worth the price, especially since no alcohol or mocktails were included. The downstairs lobby and restaurant was great and had all kinds of Taylor stuff and had a great vibe. I wish I had just made normal dinner reservations and not spent the extra money to attend this so called “event”.

I gave up my 5:00 reservation at spoke and Steele which is the restaurant on the main level for the Taylor swift “party”. There was one other table there. The food was essentially a Thanksgiving dinner. For $65 I didn’t think it was worth it at all. My friend and I tried to eat but didn’t end up eating anything except the olives and pickles on the charcuterie board they had and drinks were not included. So we literally wasted $65 a piece. The staff was nice though.

Waited 20 minutes after being seated in an almost empty restaurant for drink orders to be taken. Had to ask for appetizer plates. Ordered a filet, was brought steak (strip) and frites. Out of the first 5 local beers we tried to order.
