Pier 48 Fish House and Oyster Bar

Seafood restaurant · Wholesale District

"The best lobster roll in Indy can be found at Pier 48, thanks to the fresh seafood flown in daily and the expertise of East Coaster chef Matthew Ace. The New York native knows how to make traditional Buffalo wings too, which are just as good as any cut of seafood on the menu. The beautiful establishment is in the heart of downtown, right across the street from Bankers Life Fieldhouse. You can enjoy salmon, monkfish, shrimp, and steak, but save room for some of the best lobster mac and cheese in the city and vegetables seasoned so well even kids will eat them. Also check out the weekly specials, based on what has been flown into town." - Mike Gillis
