Editorial Review for The Porch – by Christopher Raymond
The Scene
With a design inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright, this casual open-air restaurant is perched high above the expansive atrium inside Indy's downtown Hyatt Regency hotel. Dark hardwood floors have small tables tucked tightly together inside the airy sky-lit dining room. Servers are attentive and well versed in menu details, but the leisurely pace in the kitchen may test a diner's patience.
The Food
Familiar American cuisine with a dash of culinary creativity makes for a lively menu that is as appealing to high-end hotel guests as it is to budget-conscious families. The lunch menu offers the most variety. A line-up of hefty sandwiches and oversized burgers compete against the all-you-can-eat pasta bar's array of steaming noodles and homemade sauces. The Porch rolls out its red carpet on Sunday mornings for an award-winning brunch.

Insider Tips
ParkingPark in the Circle City Mall parking garage ($2) and take the skywalk to the hotel. It's a bargain compared to the hotel garage.
Where to SitFor people-watching, ask for a table near the entranceway and take in the activity in the busy atrium below.
