"A line forms outside Milktooth every weekend. The restaurant, nationally famous for its daytime menus, is still at the top of its game, made even more impressive by the kitchen team’s commitment to source ingredients nearby and patronize other small businesses. The menu changes seasonally, but the options always include some type of waffle, Dutch pancakes, grits, and fried chicken. While you wait for your meal, order one of the excellent pastries and something from the creative coffee menu. The open dining room and unique tables, chairs, and utensils make the experience even more fun. Keep an eye out for pop-ups from other local chefs, limited-run menu items, and other creative one-offs from owner Jon Brooks, who has developed some notoriety for experimenting." - Mike Gillis

"A relentlessly inventive breakfast destination where imaginative morning dishes—Dutch baby pancakes with fluffernutter and grape jelly, sourdough-chocolate waffles with oolong-maple, and bacon-and-beef sloppy Joes—redefine what a creative, joyous morning meal can be." - Bill Addison
"Brunch is having its heyday. Just ask Jonathan Brooks and his team at the Hoosier State’s most buzzed-about spot. Their modern diner is the best reason to get out of bed in the morning, offering daytime specialties that put ol’ eggs benny to shame. Bruschetta Dutch baby pancake, chilled cantaloupe soup, and grilled chicken thighs with gochugaru sauce are only a few of the selections that guests can look forward to. If that’s not enough, the restaurant’s dedicated coffee and alcohol program provides a jolt to start each day." - Jeffy Mai
