Reviews of Livery - Indianapolis (Coffee Shop)

Justin Reddick

Cauliflower that will make you fight your mother for the last piece! That’s not a typo - cauliflower people! Order one for you and one for your mother. Ridiculous! The wife and I have been many times, the experience is consistently excellent. Great food, friendly professional staff, phenomenal location & a vibe suitable for any occasion!

Tim Applegate

My 1st time here and I must say I was very impressed and especially by our server Michelle. She took such good care of us I just can't say enough good things about her. The food is also delicious I will definitely be back.

Veronika Shumaker

Food and drink are both awesome. I can't wait to go back!

Ann Ayres

They lost our reservation and we had to wait briefly. Drinks were very good. Lamb empanadas had great flavor. Paella was amazing but the chicken dish was not. It was just a glorified chicken sandwich. Chicken entree came to the table a good 10-15 minutes after the paella dish was served. Why couldn’t they bring both entrees at once? Music was a little loud and we had to sit next to the server station so wait staff was walking around the table frequently. I would definitely go back again for the paella and ceviche, but hostess and wait staff need to improve.

Street corn, chorizo empanadas and red drum were all tasty. I had the catamaran cocktail and that was excellent as well. I'll be back.

Belinda Rice

While visiting Indy this restaurant was recommend by a customer I was meeting. Their recommendation was excellent. The menu is limited, but each dish are full of flavor and skillfully prepared. this is popular restaurant and parking is limited so plan a head and make a reservation. Good food and even better cocktails! We tried a few variations of spicy tequila based drinks and loved them all! Evan was a GREAT server and more than attentive!

Scott Koeppel

Best dinner we had in Indy. Had to wait a bit for the rooftop but it was worth it. Knowledge staff with some killer recommendations. The plantains and corn empanada was our favorites.

Carol Speirs

Had a wonderful meal in this fun and lively restaurant- our waiter Adam had great recommendations and described the menu options perfectly. The balance and mix of flavors is amazing- don't miss the cauliflower appetizer!

B Smith

Does this place need another 5 star review? Probably not, but here is mine anyway. We had the brussel sprout appetizer, a mango salad, chicken entree and skirt steak entree. Everything was amazing. What's more amazing is the price. I would expect this stuff to be in the 20 to $30 range per plate, it's mostly$14-20. It's easy to see why it's busy.

Katrice Leslie

This place was amazing when it first opened. Now the portions are tiny and the price is higher. They still make the best margaritas but they are a but pricey. Wasnt impressed

Regina Garvin

The food was delicious and not a bad price.

Marcus Johnson

Wonderful meal I had the paella and a cocktail with gin which was very refreshing. I loved the atmosphere and location as well as where i was seated. I am definitely going back.

Cullen Reed

Awesome food and experience! Adam was the bomb!!! Great service all the way around!

Leo Superarts

Service is very nice, and they have the best corns.

Ram Boyapati

A place that offers great customer service. Mac was exceptional. He spent the time to learn about our tastes and dietary restrictions. We tried Yuka Fries, Cuban Sandwich (became our instant favorite), and Quesadillas. Also, the three desert platter of Choc flan, lemon tres leches, and caramel dipped churros was very satisfying at the end. One thing is for sure, YOU ARE IN FOR A FLAVORFUL FOOD WITH A TOUCH OF CREATIVITY. Also, this place has a very creative barista, prepared custom mojitos for us. Strawberry lemonade with a hint of coconut and zinger is my favorite. A special thanks to Mac, Livery’s team of chefs and barista! I will visit this place again to try the Cuban sandwich, Yuka Fries, and a different mojito this time.

Isabelle Smith

Really enjoyed this place! The food was excellent and so were the drinks.

robert slue

Nice warm feel to it

Coraline Mcflyy

I had a wonderful time it's was my 18th and everyone made it special

Josh R. Falcon

Another incredible expression of the Cunningham group. Elegant yet inviting. Spacious yet intimate. There food and service are top notch.

Jason Hillard

Excellent restaurant for dinner with a friendly staff and top-notch cooking. Highly recommended if you’re from out of town and looking for a great local spot!

Eric Hernandez

Great food, some of the dishes (like the paella) are very spicy. If you are not into spicy food ask about your choices. Empanadas are to die for and the skirt steak is awesome. The tres leches for dessert is outstanding and paired off with a delicious sorbet. Prices are reasonable.

Johann P

Very vegan friendly! Had the yucca fries with guac, cauliflower, plantain without dairy, and the gazpacho. Everything was so full of flavor. Great and friendly service too!

Alan Baker

Great food and service. Charming building. A Indianapolis treasure.....from a visitor...and fan.

Nicole Harper

Great restaurant! Large parties can be accommodated. May need to reserve in advance. Two levels with a bar upstairs. Love the layout!

Chris Bascur

My server was great,she was very out going and knowledgeable . I had many dishes on the menu all of then were delicious! The menu is Hispanic favorites,come in with an open mind about the food. Its not your little latina grandma cooking in the back. The chefs did do a great job preparing each dish. Im definitely coming back!

Jorge Rodriguez

Really nice place, different menu fair prices

Shannon Kuhn

Best Manhattans in Indy!! We usually only go for a nightcap but tonight we decided to treat ourselves to dinner too. SO glad we did! Food was amazing and to top it all off we had an amazing server! Adam is an absolute legend. Super personable and very attentive! Looks like we will have to be coming here for more than just drinks now!

Ray Gutierrez

Up here from Miami and loved this little hidden gem. Food was AMAZING and for a fair price. We sat at the bar because it was full but the experience was still great. Our bartender Marc was AWESOME! Extremely helpful and his recommendations were on point. Will definitely go back.

Laurel Hess

Best garnish I ever ate. I love love the garnish and really want them to make it a salad you can order on the menu. We ate other great food the restaurant was clean and friendly. I will definitely come back again and bring my friends and family. Wonderful Hispanic food that was easy yet simple to eat. Executive Chef Rand was on point and had great attention to detail and make each and every plate wonderful.

Calvin Beasley

This is our go-to date night spot in Indy. Awesome food, drinks, and atmosphere every time!

Gregory Gray

Great food and even better service. The take thyme is the best mixed drink I've ever had!

John Velarde

Excellent food, and service also.

Gregg Haskell

Excellent service nice atmosphere you must have the red drum

chris short

Awesome service, great atmosphere. The food is phenomenal!! I'll def be back next time I'm in Indy!

Diego Espinosa

Really excellent food and very friendly and welcoming wait staff. I recommend the Red Drum, a fish dish, with a soft fish flavor and tender meat.

Jason Nickel

The atmosphere is good. It fits a nice high class vibe. The meals were not up to par for the price overall. The $15 lamb tamale was pitiful in terms of size and it was very much overdone. The steak another party member got was fairly ok, though he got a medium rare even though he specifically said medium well. There was a lot of red in the steak. The Cuban was the only entree party got that see decent sized and quality the price. Otherwise the margarita was good, though small and price on bar what what I'd expect from a restaurant of this class.

Jedna Vira

Very good with excellent service. The restaurant is a very cool structure on the outskirts of downtown's Mass Ave. Highly recommend this place.

Ryan Whitney

Had the Yucca fries, paella, and lamb empanadas. It was all flavorful, modern, savory, and delicious. Also, this is an excellent summer venue.

Alex

Went to Livery with a group of friends and it was great! Decent location right next to Mass ave, valet parking (in all honesty, finding self parking can be a hassle), nice interior and tasty food! We tried devour menu and it was very delicious. Our server was attentive, friendly, and fun to talk to. Overall, it didn’t cost much and we’d definitely recommend this restaurant!

David Long

Great fish tacos. Cool atmosphere.

Kelsey

Wonderful food, drinks, and service

Maribel Yanez

I am in Indianapolis for a conference, me and my coworkers are from Texas! We absolutely loved this place. Adam was amazing, and the food was amazing. I loved everything about this place!

Kyle Muir

Enjoyed a fantastic dinner on the rooftop patio. Everything we had (empanadas (chicken and queso), fish tacos, cauliflower, sweet corn, churos, and the red drum) were all delicious. Some of the best prepared food I have had in a long time. Waitress was very knowledgeable about all menu items. Great service. Great ambiance. Can’t wait to return.

Heather Hagy

This was really good. We split the paella and the lamb tamale. We had the corn to start. It definitely had the right amount of spice. We had the churro for dessert. This is a very good date idea.

Maxim Bulanov

Very lovely place, welcoming staff and delicious food and drinks

Ellen Klage

We went to Livery during Devour Indy. We had a super waiter, Adam. He was well informed about the food, the wine and the parking. We had about 4 choices for appetizers and for the entrees. My hubby had the manchego crisp salad which had fresh, crisp vegetables. I had the street corn which was really delicious. Before we ate, I had a carriage house margarita and my hubby had a regular one. They were so good, we each had a second. For the entree, I had a wonderful quesadilla. Every time I come here that's what I order. My hubby had the chicken cannelonis which he really liked. Our dessert were churros. They are like heaven on earth, so light and sweet. There was caramel sauce which was yummy. We definitely plan on returning, especially if Adam continues to work there.

Lauren Martinez

I had an amazing experience at last night. a decent amount of veggie options but not a ton of vegan ones. I ordered the cauliflower and it was amazing. The waiter noticed I was looking at my friend's plantain, and couldn't try it because of the crema. He came out with an order that was dairy-free for me and it was on the house. I truly appreciate that. The drinks are also a great addition!

Distinctly Unique Ms. Latrice

The food was great!! The service was amazing! Definitely pricey but worth the experience.

Michael Camp

$17 for a plate of rice with 3 shrimp and 1 scallop. Not all of the dishes seemed to be this out of proportion for the price but I did see other dishes that seemed a bit small.

Kelly D Winsley

The food was very flavorful.

Nick N.

Fantastic spot! Great service. Stylish decor. Get a margarita and the grits. Boom.

Andy Glassley

Went for my wife's birthday with a large group. Service was great and the food was excellent!

Jeremy Orcutt

Visited for Devour Downtown. The food was excellent. The portions were slightly smaller than normal, but definitely still filling. The service was impeccable.

William Keene

Was amazing, the food was excellent and the service was as well. Would recommend for any date you may have. I would highly recommend the lamb, and any other of their, empanadas. They have a wonderful flavor that can't be matched and something that is truly unique. The best of the few that I have had were corn and lamb but the others were good as well!

Matt Carey

Absolutely fantastic. Excellent menu, great cocktails, the service was dynamite. Even the space is beautiful. This place nailed it.

Anthony Marsiglio

Loved it. Another great Cunningham restaurant!

Danielle Beuchle

Excellent atmosphere, service and food!!

Ashley Trowbridge

Corn empanada for the win. Solid margarita too

Akasake

This is a great place for great food and great atmosphere. They were very attentive. The price range is great too.

chris partlow

Good margaritas and great fish tacos!

Arunima Ram

3rd visit to this downtown darling...cocktails are good here, their margarita is pretty good! However their food from their entree section doesnt wow me. My husband always orders the paella here and that definitely is good..the options I have tried are just okay, not bad but not something that wows me with flavor and texture. Lamb empanadas are very good, chorizo and chicken empanadas are fine. Service has never been an issue at all. Good wait staff. Dislike that there are just 2 restrooms for such a big place.

Danielle Wachter

Excellent, fresh, fast. We got the Livery margaritas and they were excellent. Definitely try the empenadas. (Corn was my personal favorite style.) I had the skirt steak and it was delicious--crispy outside, pink center. The jalapeno butter made it! Restaurant was bigger than it looked from the street, and it bit nicer than I expected from the website. Highly recommend!!

Tonique Smith

Invited to the Livery for a team function. Excellent menu items. We had a 5 course meal with dessert...each bite was absolutely delectable. The ambiance and service is an added bonus for your money.

Spencer Biddle

Seemed like a really cool place. We walked in at 11:05 on a Monday night after reading on Google that the bar was open until midnight. The sign on the door affirmed that. Unfortunately, as soon as we sat down at the bar, the bartender let us know the kitchen closed at 10 and the bar closed at 11. Total bummer because it seemed like a cool place. Should figure out their hours and market accordingly.

SPhillip

Poor service and the people at the front desk were being racist. We are an interracial couple and we were flat out discriminated against. Our glasses was empty for most of the night even when we requested water, the waiter severed the couple next to us and refused to speak to us. His back was turn towards us, and we were toss two cups of chorizo when we asked for refill in a condensing way. We literally had to beg him for attention as we raise our hands for some water. It was the worse expi had ever had. Also the bathroom wall says " Niggers life does not matter" with a scratch over it in the men's bathroom. Furthermore they're restrooms are gender specific.

Andy Hall

The ppl and service was fantastic. The food..ridiculously satisfying, portions were perfect. Loved the corn empanadas!

Fiona Clark

As a fulltime server, and a dedicated foodie, I appreciated the service here, the atmosphere, and the attention of not just our awesome server, ADAM, but other staff as well. hope to be back very soon

Lucinda Sizemore

Awesome food, drinks and service!

Jaime Jusidman

Great Food, Delicious Drinks and Excellent service. I highly recommend it.

Reggie Henderson

Great place for small plates and good spanish inspired cuisine. Service was very good.

Delena Davis

This place was amazing. The food was great. It was hard at first to digest the menu but the wait staff was very helpful. The decor of the restaurant was nice, clean and maintained.

theresa bumbalough

Greeted warmly by the hostess. Our waitress explained the dishes to us and provided recommendations. Very nice atmosphere. We had the ceviche, artichoke, and skirt steak. Delicious! Definitely recommend the place.

Allen Brown

Great food, great service, and a fun rooftop dining area.

Morgan Reid

Everyone should ask for Adam as their server, he made our time so fun!! Plus the food is amazing

Zak Bittinger

Absolutely fantastic place to eat. Food presentation and taste was phenomenal, drinks were creative and paired well, and the atmosphere was perfect (as long as you're like me a love a mix of classic rock to Spice Girls/90s pop). And naturally the service was spot-on, which is invaluable to me as a newer parent of a small, rambunctious child. A must-eat spot in Indy.

painfully uncool

So, so, so, so good. Ask for Samantha, she will really take care of you. Loved the menu and the outdoor patio was great.

Jacob James

Good cocktails, interesting interpretive food definitely Mexico inspired. The inside section upstairs is really well done and can seat groups on up to 10. During summer this is a great place to come and have cocktails on the upstairs patio.

Chad Beasley

Wonderful food and service at a really unique place! Definitely different then your normal restaurant.

Ryan Christie

The empanadas are tremendous. I also recommend the plantains as an appetizer. Great drinks and entrees as well.

T BB

hip, easy going feel and food is amazing

Shana Cureton

Fantastic atmosphere and food. Will definitely make this number one on this foodie's list. The wait staff are knowledgable and seem to be there right when you need them. My friends said the drinks are amazing.

Nathan Marine

OMG, so good. The latin inspired cuisine is to die for. Gotta try the street corn and empanadas!

Angie King

Some of the best Indy restaurants are from the Cunningham group! We love Livery! The vibe is fun, the food is incredible, and the staff is great! The queso empanadas are a MUST!

Sandra Adero

The waiters were very nice

Rosalind Shockley

Nice peaceful fun outing

Shivani Katukota

The place has a nice ambience..we went on a friday night and it was full! Lots of young people there. The service, food, drinks were good. They have good margaritas.

Jordan Drabing

Livery is one of the best restaurants in downtown Indy. Adam is by far one of the best servers I’ve had in the times I’ve eaten here. Another great experience... ps try the corn empanadas

Daniela Minor

Was told I had to wait 1 hour for a table so we was willing to wait. We did the table reservation they send a message as soon as I gave them my number telling me I was on the waiting list around 7:16 waited for 2 hours and never received a text I'm very disappointed I wasted 2 hours waiting..they never contacted me.

Nicholas Lester

An excellent meal in Indy! We loved our first experience at Livery. We each started with the Livery Margarita, a fantastic drink. We had the grilled artichoke and plantain starters and both were delicious. We especially loved the plantains - they weren't like any plantain dish we had had before. We ordered the corn empanadas and the queso empanadas. Both came in an order of 3, and they were fantastic. We couldn't finish all 6 between us, even though we wanted to. We can't wait to come back.

Darya Jackson

Loved the overstated exterior and understated interior. Loved the squatty sniffler-type beer glasses. The food is 8/10, could be better, but is pretty good as it is. The waitstuff was unobtrusive.

Lori Tharp

The food was great. Our waitress wasn't the friendliest.

Emma Williamson

Our favorite main course is easily the paella. The scallops melt like butter and the heat of the shrimp is addictive. The acidity of the pickled onions balanced the fat of the chorizo rice. We also enjoyed the quesadillas.We ended with churros. The finger-sized desserts with a lightly salted caramel is the perfectly sized end to an evening. Overall, the service and the holistic experience of Livery is nothing short of wonderful.

Joe Janik

Best margaritas in the city! Consistency on the food and drink is always spot on. This is always our go to when we come downtown.

Natalie Broadus-Beard

The food and service was Superb! Ask for Josh! Great Empanadas and street corn!

Carolyn Harris

Walked in at 8pm on a Friday night without a reservation and got seated right away. Lucky maybe. Anyway, great food not too spicy but flavorful. Parking still sucks unless you want to valet. Will goback.

Jenna Spurrier

Everything was awesome. The lights in the upstairs were a little bright though. The guacamole was very good.

Sydney Adams

Stop for drink before we went to dinner at mesh. Wish we would have had dinner there ;-) check out the review. We went to the bar upstairs unfortunately I cannot remember the bartender's name, I think it was Jared. Yes it was Jared. What an excellent Craftsman. The knowledge of that gentleman completely blew my daughter and I both away. He is excellent excellent. Save your money at mesh. And spend some extra money upstairs with Jared. Your pocketbook with thank you, and so will your taste buds

Martin Maynard

Excellent ambiance for a late night out. It's off the beaten path, but bustling inside. Mature crowd. Very upscale menu and waitstaff is excellent. Drink options, cocktails, beer, and wine, are excellent with a wide selection. There ia bar seating, inside seating, and an outside patio seating. Definintely found a hidden gem.

Lauren Kirk

Favorite restaurant in Indy! The corn empanadas are underrated.

Bryn Foreman

Dinner was fantastic. My partner and I went here for our anniversary and had an amazing time. Every bite was seriously good, and our waiter, Adam, was very chill and friendly. My hillbilly partner and I weren’t sure how to consume oysters when cooked, and Adam was very non-judgmental when explaining that you eat them like regular oysters. It was very stylish, fun, and easily the best food I’ve had in months!

Jasmine S.

The food and drinks were good ended up with a fantastic waiter Up on the roof. We were very disappointed with the management and hostess staff they were very rude when we were checking in for a reservation and actually tried to deter us from Staying.

Marisol

Every dish served is an explosion of flavors worth every bite and dollar. Best plate I have tried so far is the Paella. I fell in love!

Justin Speyer

After a horrible first meal in Indianapolis I went for a long walk in the hopes that I'd find a better experience. I came across Livery and it was everything I could possibly have hoped for and absolutely salvaged my trip! The steak empanadas were fabulous, the red drum was fabulous, the churros were actually worth it (How do you make a remarkable churro?! These folks pull it off) and the cocktails were good AND not exorbitantly priced. Amazing meal and drinks for under $70. Do yourself a favor, go here.

Sara Lukach

They had great food! We went for Devour downtown and it was fun to try all three courses! Still a little pricey for what you get, but would definitely come back again.

V Mason

great food and drinks. Shared several different dishes. everything exceeded its expectations

Robin Long

An excellent meal in Indy! We loved our first experience at Livery. We each started with the Livery Margarita, a fantastic drink. We had the grilled artichoke and plantain starters and both were delicious. We especially loved the plantains - they weren't like any plantain dish we had had before. We ordered the corn empanadas and the queso empanadas. Both came in an order of 3, and they were fantastic. We couldn't finish all 6 between us, even though we wanted to. We can't wait to come back.

Seth Paxton

The food has been great since day 1. I try to move away from the Red Drum but it's my go-to and my favorite meal in Indy. But beware the service. Its varied wildly over the last few years and sometimes be a disaster. Still it's the best restaurant on Mass Ave though technically it's just off of it. If you can get good weather patio deck seating you'll enjoy it even more. Solid cocktail choices as well. Not elite but good for a restaurant.

Jinda Bowerman

The service and food were both exceptional!

Karen Wong

Atmosphere is great! The drinks, food and service is top notch. I would highly recommend this place for tapas and drinks after a long week at the office!

Dave Wicks

Delicious food. You can't go wrong with empanadas. The Margaritas were excellent. Great atmosphere and friendly staff.

Kathy Meyers

Good food, good margaritas. We had a. Excellent server who made wonderful suggestions. We were celebrating a birthday and had a great first time here!

Lisa H

We love Livery! Our go to place!! Adam was a great server....... perfect blend of funny, helpful and easy to approach!! We had a great night celebrating our family member’s birthday!

Lori Wanko

Has multiple positives- upscale ambiance, tons of seating options including rooftop, awesome margaritas, and really good & hard to find mexican food! Vegetarian options abound. Feels like a very grown-up but not pretentious Latin food place!

Claude Crowder

Love the South American fusion and great service. Highly recommend.
