Best Date Night Restaurants in Fortville

This is such a unique and elegant experience. Book a table, put on some nice clothes, and make the drive. From the time you turn into the drive that takes you through the manicured grounds flanked by sculptures to the door of the estate that houses RH, you are transported to one of the most lovely places in Indy. The store itself covers every room with beautiful RH furniture, but the restaurant is spectacular. The menu has everything including different caviar service as well as a modern brunch service with expertly crafted drinks, espresso, and two types of freshly pressed juice drinks. The impossibly thin pancakes and their black Forrest bacon was unlike I’ve had anywhere. My wife had the avocado toast which was very hearty yet light with pickled onions and a salad of parsley and dill. We can’t wait to come back and see the handsome views (not to mention the outdoor furniture) in person when the weather is warmer. Get on the list now!

This was our first time visiting Salt. It was much more spacious inside than I thought it would be, yet still felt comfortable & warm due to having different seating areas vs one big open room. We really liked the lighting and the decor, there was music in the background that wasn’t too overwhelming yet still made it feel like a fun Friday night.  The ambiance alone makes me excited to dine there again. My daughter and I shared four appetizers and liked each one. Our favorite was the poke … beautiful presentation, and the rice underneath was addictive. The only preference I would have next time is no Sriracha mayo drizzled on it, instead just a little of that caramel soy they put under the rice. The calamari was nice and crunchy … it had good flavor on its own, but the dipping sauce was also good.  The spicy tuna roll was nice & fresh, lovely presentation. Our least favorite of the four were the dumplings. They were really good, but didn’t need to be served in the citrus chile sauce. Maybe just squeeze a bit of it over the dumplings versus filling the bottom of the dish with it? Every dish that went by us to other tables looked amazing.  Next time I’m excited to try the oysters Rockefeller and lamb lollipops, plus the skillet bread.

Wife and I were immediately greeted by the owners as we walked in the door. Had reservations, but decided to sit at the bar as they were the ones tending. Service, drinks, and every last item we ordered was absolutely outstanding. We made a reservation to bring family while eating dessert. Our new favorite spot.

Food, drinks and service were excellent. I said 4 stars for value because it was pricey to add steak to my salad and I just got 2 little bits of steak. I thought for the price, it should have been more. A large cut, properly cooked and sliced and placed on the salad would have been a better value and experience to eat. Everything else was good!

Great food! Quick service even on a Friday night..
