These
four restaurants are not the only
restaurants that are talked about in
Indiana. Many people have opposing
views on other restaurants as well.
First, we have Ruby Tuesday, a chain
restaurant located right across the
street from Eat’n Park. People seem
to agree that the food is delicious, but
that it is way too expensive. People
also stated that the wait is always
long, but that the workers are very
well-mannered and kind. Another
restaurant many people talk about
is Kim Moon, a Chinese/Japanese
restaurant located at 718 Philadelphia
St. First, people found that
their prices are cheap and affordable.
Others have said that it is the best
Chinese restaurant in town. Many
people have also stated that the sushi
is amazing. Another restaurant
talked about in Indiana is Perkins,
another chain restaurant similar
to Eat’n Park as it serves breakfast
among other things. Customers
have reported that Perkins has a nice
atmosphere and that it is very familyoriented.
Multiple people stated that
the food comes out quickly and that
the prices are inexpensive. A negative
review found here is that the
wait can be fairly long. One other
restaurant that has many different reviews
is Romeo’s Pizzeria. Romeo’s
is located at 1112 Oakland Ave. One
major positive thing about Romeo’s is
its late hours – it is open until 3 a.m.
on most nights. Many people find
the pizza and breadsticks to be “delicious.”
Other people find Romeo’s to
be too expensive, and some find the
service to be “terrible.”
Tres Amigos is the final restaurant
that will be focused on, as it
is one of the newer restaurants in
Indiana. Tres Amigos is a Mexican
restaurant located at 1540 Oakland
Ave. The main positive review found
was that the wait staff and service
is “phenomenal.” At this restaurant,
you get an enormous amount of food
for a cheap price. The food comes
out “hot, fast and delicious!” From
all of the reviews, it is apparent that
the most popular item served at Tres
Amigos are the margaritas; they are
strong yet delicious.
So, although there was no clear
winner or loser for the best
and worst restaurant to dine
at in Indiana, there are many helpful
reviews that can enable a person
to make that decision. In the end
though, it isn’t up to someone else to
make the decision as to where a person
should dine at in Indiana. People
need to go out and discover that for
themselves.
