Hitting up all those Indianapolis sporting events (or rock concerts, or museums) can work up an appetite, and Hoosiers take their food very seriously!

From the landmark St. Elmo's Steak House downtown, to Broad Ripple's Bazbeaux Pizza in midtown, to Rick's Boatyard Cafe on the eastside, there are plenty of dining options unique to the Circle City—and of course there are countless chain options like the popular Buca di Peppo Italian restaurants as well.
