We ate at 4:30 (before a concert). We were the only diners. Although we are somewhat knowledgeable about Asian food and one of us had researched the menus ahead of time, we were overwhelmed by the number, complexity, and sometime redundancy of the menus. What would have been a complete fiasco for the four of us was only improved by the kindness of our server who cautiously guided us. The food did not wow us; there was a lot of fat on the meat items, and the flavors were surprisingly bland. We actually ordered very little, but the bill was high. One wine on the menu was listed at $65 per glass!

This was such a great experience and the food was outstanding. We arrived and they were having problems with the gas lines being turned off as there were city workers out front working on the street. They let us know it would be 10 minutes before they could start making food. After 15 minutes they let us know they were unsure when the gas would be on and that they could make us a few select dishes on the menu if we would like to stay. They were very friendly and made an effort to help and inform us of what was occurring that was out of their control. We opted to stay and ordered the Caramelized pork and eggs and the Beef stew and both dishes were so flavorful and delicious and the owner came out to ensure we were enjoying our experience and let us know that the Caramelized pork takes 48 hours to cook! It was so juicy and moist. Definitely will return when we are in the area.

This restaurant went downhill fast. A year ago, I raved about them on social media being a hidden gem. Being only one of two tables in that large restaurant on Thursday for dinner was telling. Food quality was bad. Pork in the rice noodle bowl and pork skewers was 80% fat. Fried dishes like egg rolls and crab rangoon were burned. Service was poor. The vegetables for the Pho came out 15 minutes after the dish was served. Sauces were not brought out with the meals but much later. And the meals came out one at a time for a party of five so food was sitting around waiting for the rest to be served. And again - they were only serving two tables! We had to send back the mochi because it was freezer burned and tasted old. And the worst part - a couple of us had stomach issues that evening. They’re not going to stay in business for much longer. Too bad. It had a lot of promise but they got lazy.

Service was slow with only a single waiter and cook. Food is expensive for portion sizes. They brought appetizers and one entree at same time and the other entree later making it so we could not eat together. Poor staging. Not likely to return.

My partner and I had the most amazing experience at Eating Fresh last night. The only negative of the evening was trying to find parking. Once we arrived at Eating Fresh, we were immediately greeted by our waitress Novlee (sp) who was our guide through the evening and made for such a great experience. We had booked the all you can grill experience and when they say all you can grill, they mean it. The menu starts with a choice of appetizer. We sampled the deep fried tofu and the soup of the day. The tofu was good but the soup was an amazing pho-like broth with meatballs. While we could have sampled the other appetizers available (like I said it’s all you eat/grill) we wanted to get on to the main event. For this you have a list of meats you can choose from including various cuts of beef, pork, chicken, and lamb. Being true carnivores and loving the opportunity to give the staff a chance to show off their place, we put ourselves in Novlee’s hands. She choose our first 5 meat selections for us and she did not disappoint. Once she made our selections, and she picked out the perfect bottle of sake to accompany our entree, we only waited a few minutes, until our proteins were ready and brought to the table along with Korean side dishes and rice to accompany. I have to pause here and mention the kimchi…Eating Fresh makes the best kimchi I have ever had, we ate so much kimichi. We grilled our meats and everything was great but the spicy pork icon, Korean beef short ribs, and filet mignon were particular hits. For dessert we again put ourselves in Novlee’s hands, with the only caveat that I would like something light and cold. She suggested honeycomb cake for my partner and mochi ice cream for me. The cake was amazing and the mochi was a new experience for us. Eating Fresh is something special!! The food is amazing!! Novlee is so fun, and the chef is a talent!! We will be back soon!!

No liquor license although bar is large appears ready to serve. Service is extremely slow (appear understaffed). Food was not served at the same time, so I watched my partner eat until they finally brought my order (seemed to have forgotten to deliver my food). People were nice but do not have a sense of urgency or concern about good service. Food is authentic Vietnamese and very good. We will return later if they are able to stay in business.

Hi ConnieS, This is Ricky, the Head Chef at Eating Fresh, first of all, I want to personally apologize to you for such a bad experience you have went at my restaurant. Second I want you to understanding that all of us here in Broad Ripple just breaking through a 2 years long City's construction, there are many things that we have prepared to serve our customers including full of staffs have all been taking away for these suffering. Everything does take time for us to rebound and be able to do better for you. Lastly, there is a good news, we just have our liquor license back and we should ready to serve alcohol again sometime next weekend, all we need to do now is just waiting for the license to show active and we ready to roll. So please make your plan to come back to see us again soon.

Eating Fresh is a gem of a restaurant! Everyone we encountered were super nice and willing to answer all of our questions about the dishes and drinks. I had the #20 Lemongrass Steak Banh Mi, Authentic Banh bao, Milk Coffee and #110 Fried Banana...Every single item was amazing will definitely be coming back to try more!

This was our 2nd time here and the food was fabulous. If you are looking for made to order, fresh, healthier options I recommend trying Eat Fresh. The menu has traditional and unique Vietnamese options. The chef and owner is really skilled and if he is available will come over and review the menu options to help you find something you would enjoy. Also, he will share how best to combine flavors when the food is served. This is a great added touch and the reason I gave the service a higher score otherwise the service is typically not why we go here. If you are on a time crunch be sure to make the server aware as there typically is 1 server who can get busy. We can't fault them as it is tough to find servers. The beef wrapped in kettle leaves is a must. The Pho is always a great go to. The price-point for this restaurant is a bit high particularly for the location. The portion sizes are large and the quality justifies spending a bit more on the meal but we can't frequent this restaurant as much as we would like due to the expense. It would be great if there were specials or something to enable cost savings? We would love to eat here more often. It's a definite for a special occasion and can accomadate large parties. We always forget there is parking out back so don't stress about parking as it's on a busy road.
