   We had a table of 8 for Mother's Day at Verde. The restaurant itself was very nice on the inside. A nice selection of drinks and food choices were available, allowing everyone in our party to enjoy their selection for the night. Food was tasty and delivered hot and fresh, but I was little disappointed in the portion size vs. price ratio. It still was excellent tasting food. Here is the strange part: For some unknown reason, the restaurant decided to have a live DJ on Mother's Day. The music he was playing was like I was at some rave.....the music was WAY to loud. We couldn't hear each other talk at the table, my wife received a phone call and couldn't hear the person on the other end of the phone. We asked our server if they could turn it down, but it stayed loud until about halfway through our meal. The volume eventually did lower, so I guessing someone else complained again as well. They even had a disco ball hanging from the ceiling....we might be back, but if they play loud music all of the time, we might not. It thought it was very strange to have a live DJ playing loud electronic dance music on Mother's Day.

   Our food was barely warm. They gave my grandson‘s meal to another table so we had to wait for it to be made again. Celebration cake was really good. All in all it’s a little too pricey for what you get.

   Arroz con pollo was on point and the atmosphere is lively and colorful service was great. We were served chips immediately upon seating. Food is not expensive. Happy to have this option in Greenwood!

   Extraordinary presentations of food & beverages; incredible flavors - we’ll mark this location as a favorite (the ambience is much, much nicer than that of other Verde locations)!

   I had high hopes and was looking forward to this meal. I made reservations for Sunday dinner for four adults. When we arrived we were promptly and warmly greeted. The inside of the restaurant looks amazing. Extremely nice and gave me confidence our meal was going to be great. I have eaten a few times at the Ironworks Verde location and was very impressed every time. The best Mexican food in all of Indy for me so I was looking forward to a south-side location close to our home. The music inside the restaurant is loud and I actually liked the music style but again, it was loud. The rest of my party really did not like it. Water along with chips and individual salsas for all the table were delivered quickly to the table. Our server could not speak English well and could not understand or answer our menu questions. Drink refills were slow. Unfortunately, the food was sub-par. Most every dish was bland at best. The only dish that had a good taste was the Shrimp Ceviche. The Chorizo Queso Fundido was OK but nothing special. The other dishes were the Crispy Taco Salad, The Burrito Mexicano which was just OK filling, the beef enchilada, taco and burrito Combination platter and lastly, the Chimichanga. I really hope this location succeeds and I want the food to get some better taste to improve the quality of the dishes. We will try this location again and count this as just a new restaurant with growing pains. While the inside of the restaurant looks amazing I can get this quality of Mexican food at countless restaurants on the south-side.

   The food was great as always and maybe even a little better as we didn't have to drive an hour north to get there. So happy Verde is in Greenwood, we will be visiting more often now.

   We were not impressed. Our group of four had dinner reservations at the Greenwood Mall location. The pricing is at least 30% higher than other Mexican restaurants in the area and the food wasn't any better and actually worse on some items. I would say the service was no better than average. What was weird was they kept having issues with the sound system and lighting. Lights were going on and off and the music up and down. We won't be going back. The overall experience for the money is just not worth it.

    The food was great, once we got some, but the service was subpar. I'm going to chalk it up to them being new. I believe we were sent in a section where there was not an assigned server. Multiple people were offered drinks and had their app orders arrive before us. We didn't want to complain but finally had to say something after 15 minutes. We will definitely be back. The other two locations are great and I'm happy to have something new in Greenwood! If you go soon just have grace if the service is not great.
