A stable in Indy! You either LOVE it or you HATE it! There is no in between! Our family & friends love it! Well, except for our son-in-law. . . he goes because he loves our daughter! If you are there at noon, be prepared to hear the National Anthem played as soon as it starts the place gets quiet. Typically there are big lunch crowds during the work week! We used to go here in the mornings for breakfast when I worked the night shift as a RN! Make sure you get the queso dip!
