Gomez BBQ

I've long heard good things about Gomez BBQ and I noticed that they'd been showing up recently to downtown Indy's Statehouse Market. Today, I finally decided to dive in. The set-up at Statehouse Market has been pretty simple. They don't use a truck. They set-up under a canopy with their BBQ goods - Pork, Chicken, Brisket, and possibly one other option. They also have a "bowl" option available. The only beverage option I saw was a bottled water. The sandwiches come on a white bun. They include cilantro and pickled red onion, though they did ask if toppings were wanted. I was a little confused as I was charged $12 for the chicken sandwich - the menu indicated $10. I did get the correct sandwich. The sandwich itself was quite tasty - I don't usually order the toppings, however, I decided to order it how it's usually served and I did enjoy it. There were two employees working - one making the food (I'll assume Gomez?) and a young man taking orders (who seemed a bit distracted, however, he was friendly). Because the canopy was off the step, the food was handed to me. Napkins probably should have been included as this was a messy sandwich. However, I enjoyed the meal and would definitely order it again. I've not been to their shop, however, this visit could sure inspire me to stop by there as I do live fairly close to it. Overall, I'm not quite willing to go 5-stars. However, this was a solid 4-star experience for me and I would definitely order again when they return to Statehouse Market.

BBQ is not something I normally pick but when I learned they have a biscuit and biscuit gravy I knew we had to try it. My husband got the breakfast quesadilla with bacon at the owners suggestion. It comes with a spicy chipotle sauce. We each thought our dishes were great!It was only the owner working. It was our first time so I'm not sure if that is the norm. We were the start of a rush so know if there are people already here, it might be a bit of a wait.

Great foods to order via Market Wagon. Their brisket and other bbq meats are tender and very flavorful.

I actually like the new location even so it's not in the best part of town. This is such a quaint little place you will feel at home immediately. The BBQ is as good as ever, maybe even better. I recommend checking out the daily specials. This way I lucked in to a grilled cheese with pulled pork on it with a side of tomato soup... OMG, so good. Espcially the grilled cheese. Cheesy buttery pulled pork on crisp bread. Heavenly. Of course the 'regular' menu is delicious as well. This is one of those great restaurants where you just cannot go wrong because it is all yummy.You can also get specialty softdrinks and a variety of beers here. And there are parking spots alongside the building as well as in the rear.

Giudbess, what a lovely treasure and addition to the near Eastside neighborhood (and conveniently less than ten minutes from home). I was so excited to hear of Gomez BBQ expanding beyond their City Market location and better yet, brightening up a spot on the near Eastside. The space boasts a charming black historic tin ceiling, floor to ceiling windows, cozy vibes and a mural along the side of the building. Rumor has it there are plans of adding a side patio for expanded outdoor seating. One of the things I love most about this location is that they offer a breakfast menu and variety of coffee drinks using Bee Coffee Roasters beans. I ended up ordering an oat milk based cinnamon beverage and it was delightful. I also ordered a pulled pork sandwich and smoked tofu for the road. The pork was amazing---and I'm all about the pickle combo to balance the flavors. I also appreciate that Mike supports other local businesses like Broad Ripple Chips and Four Birds Bakery. I was able to buy the tofu vacuum sealed to take home and prepare with other ingredients. Promise you won't regret a breakfast/lunch or dinner at Gomez BBQ. Cherry on top? Order a beer flight while you're there. Enjoy!

I learned of this location days after a failed attempt to get my bbq fix at their former City Market spot. How lucky for me! The menu isn't huge but has a few standards and daily specials. I planned on getting something "small" but heard myself order the bbq bowl subbing in brisket for the chicken or pork. And a beer. Because...barbecue! I was happy with my food, it had a good amount of meat and the crunchy pickles on top were a nice touch. There are some parking spots next to the building and in back. The place is small so if you have a big group get there before the usual rush times to get one of the bigger tables.

This was a great place! One man operation the Saturday night we went there. Didn't have to wait long to get our food and the man that greeted us was kind and took the time to fill us in on all the deets. Small place. 4 tables, 18 table seats. A dozen or so bar seats. A small fenced in patio to the right of the restaurant with 3 or so wooden picnic tables, but nicely shaded by the two story building next door. Fun upbeat jazzy music, not too loud, just perfect. It was warm inside...but it was warm outside, and the wall facing 10th street is all windows, so that's to be expected. Lots of good beers on draft. Craft soda, which I'm usually not a fan of but the MexiCola was yummy. The chips weren't plentiful, but the meat portion was satisfying and filled my tummy. Prices were really fair. They offer cookies from 4 Birds Bakery and that's always a fav of mine.It was a good place. The only thing for ME though, when it comes to BBQ, because there seems to be one on every corner, it has to have some OUTSTANDING feature in order for it to stand out amongst the rest. And this really didn't have that. If I lived in Woodruff Place, I could see walking here a couple times a month, or ordering carry out and bringing some home. But since it's a little bit more of a drive, I don't see us stopping by again real soon. There isn't anything *special* that I would crave and NEED to go.But def a great small business, a fun new place to try and if you are looking for a great small BBQ place, with big portions and decent prices? This is a must see

Best BBQ I've ever had!!! Everything was delicious - I can't explain how good the quesadilla was - it was the perfect mix of cheese, meat & eggs. And the sauce to dip it in was SOO good. It was also perfectly crisp. The sampler platter is a great option if you want a taste a bit of everything. They also have a lot of drink options - sodas, teas, coffee, bloodys, wine/beer. I got an ice coffee and it was delicious. They have some vegetarian options if you have someone in your group that can't eat meat. And differenr days have specials for sandwiches, ribs etc. Perfect option for catering, take out or dine in. Will be back. Enjoy!!!

This place is so comfortable. It's like being in your friends house with the best barbecue and a draft bar! All of the servers here are kind, knowledgeable, and considerate. They make you feel like you're a friend hanging out. I highly recommend this place to all my friends and acquaintances, both for the food and vibes. Check this place out if you have 10+ minutes!!I heard the red curry ramen is also really good too. They have lots of draft beer and all the recommendations.

The smoked wings with sambal sauce are amazing! I know this is a bbq place but the wings caught our eye and I'm so glad we tried them. You get 6-7 wings for $8.00. The smoky flavor of the wings is prominent and long-lasting, but not overbearing. The sambal sauce is a spicy, sriracha sauce that slightly reminded me of buffalo sauce. The spicy, tangy, vinegary sauce combined with the smokiness created a really unique and addicting flavor profile. FYI the sambal sauce is quite spicy so I would ask for sauce on the side if you want to control the spice level. The guys at the counter were also friendly and a pleasure to chat with. Will definitely be back to try other menu items and highly recommend to others!
