Up Cellar

Service is outstanding, probably would go back but would definitely order something different. I had the Beef Filet and it was on the fair side!

My husband and I had a date night and made reservations at Up Cellar. There is no signage outside to tell you where exactly this restaurant is located. It is actually part of the Pizza & Libations restaurant, just up a long steep flight of stairs. We were taken upstairs after waiting in the P&L lobby for about 15 minutes. Our server was a very bubbly girl who approached our table quickly to get our drinks. I viewed the menu and had a slight panic because it was totally different than what is posted on the Up Cellar website. When I viewed the menu on their website, it showed they had a chicken entree and a mushroom pasta entree that I was excited about. I do not eat beef or pork and choose my restaurants carefully by viewing menus prior to making reservations or visiting. I asked our server about those dishes I found on their website, she replied that the menu has changed and other people have said the same thing about the website not being updated with the new menu. I was quite frustrated at this point. You would think that a restaurant with expensive prices like Up Cellar would update their website!!I told the server my dilemma and she suggested baked Mac & cheese with lobster. I had no other choice so I agreed. I did get French onion soup and also ate some of the bread that was brought to the table. The French onion soup was good. The lobster Mac & cheese was just ok. I ate maybe half and the server boxed up the remaining for me. My husband had the NY strip that came with potatoes and a wedge salad. We had the apple pie for dessert that was ok. On the drive home, I started to feel strange. We got home and I ran to the bathroom to vomit my brains out!! I believe the lobster or the creamy sauce in the Mac & cheese was off which caused me to be sick . Our date night dinner was $245 dollars and I was the lucky one to spend my evening vomiting in the bathroom.

This was a wonderful surprise. Parking is very easy and just across the street. The entrance is shared with the pizza place, so it's just a bit confusing, but the person at the door was very helpful. The music and lighting fit just right with the food.The stairs are a little steep but easy to get up. The bone in ribeye was just about as tender as a waygu steak. It was very flavorful and good. Mashed potsotes are on the top of the list. Baked mac and cheese is very creamy and wonderful taste.The wife couldn't get enough of the gnocchi. She doesn't eat much but almost finished the plate. This is now on the go-to list for food.

We had a wonderful anniversary dinner at up cellar.It's located in Bargersville Indiana by the railroad track look like there's a fun pizza place as well as a coffee shop deli next to it you can easily walk by and not know how to get in you just go through the door that says 75 where the pizza shop is. then they take you up a long flight of stairs to get up upstairs it's a very elegant setting place. Easy it reminds you of a speakeasy.We ordered the wedge salad and split it and glad that we did even splitting it was a large salad. I also got the shrimp cocktail which was amazing.My wife got the fillet and I got the ribeye both were fantastic and came with a side of mashed potatoes and vegetables.we splurged and got dessert and my wife said the cheesecake was one of the best she's ever had. I had the bread pudding and it was good as well.We would highly recommend this place. It is a little pricey, but a nice treat.

I have held reviewing this restaurant for some time in order to let my initial expression mellow. First, the owners of this upscale eatery of transformed the once sleepy rural crossroad village into a true destination for dining. Taxman Brewing and Pizza & Libations have a well deserved following in the Bargersville area. Up Cellar is on the second floor above The Pizza & Libation restaurant. A true obstacle to any handicapped or elderly person is the fact that the only means of reaching the second floor restaurant is via a long steep stairs. The ambience is perfect for a romantic date or evening with your significant other. The night we dined our server explained that she was pinch hitting from the Taxman Brewery down the street. Obviously, the pacing of cocktails, appetizers, entrees and desserts is far different in an upscale restaurant than a sports grill. Delivery of the meal components were very slow and dirty dishes not removed before delivery of next stage of the meal. This was so evident that it detracted from our enjoyment of the evening. The food was a diverse range of outstanding to poor. The crab cake appetizer was indeed the best I have had. The molten lava cake dessert was very tasty. However, my pork chop and my wife's skirt steak were very dry. We certainly will continue to visit the brewery for casual food but we feel that an upscale eatery is in need of major improvements.

There is so much potential at Up Cellar but there is always something that makes the experience less than ideal. They have an amazing bar but you can't wait at it before your table. They have never sat us on time as per our reservation but the place has several empty tables and you can get more common cocktails downstairs but not upstairs. The food is inconsistent, sometimes it has been amazing but sometimes it is lacking. Wait staff continue to serve like it's their first day. I hope for the price they can get more consistent as I love the coolness of the interior and its location in Bargersville.

Whoa! Let's just start there. The decor is to die for! Celebrated my birthday here with hubs. We started on the patio with some cocktails. The patio was empty and the weather was beautiful. After we were seated we were treated with a complimentary bite from the chef. A bite of sushi grade salmon with some caviar. The salmon was smooth against the briny caviar. In a word; decadent. Next we had our appetizers: Wagyu tartare and crab cake.Wagyu- absolutely delicious. The combination of the briny capers, creamy sauce and soft beef on top of a salty crispy chip is a creamy opulent bite.The crab cake had no filler! It was coupled with a sauce that had a lemony punch but still very velvety. The combination of the fried crab and grapefruit that accompanies provides the perfect amount of punch.Dinner:Me- Wagyu sirloin: perfectly cooked medium. Great sear and velvet texture.Hubs- Wagyu ribeye: first time over cooked. Upon re-fire, was cooked just as he asked and well seasoned. However it was very thin and based on texture and beefy flavor, it resembled a prime cut. In the opinion of these two seasoned eaters, it fell short of expectations for the price tag.Sides:Lobster Mac: excellent, noodles had perfect amount of bite and they hold up to the creamy cheese and smoky element. Creamed spinach: good. I would've liked to have a little thicker sauce and a little more Parmesan punch.Dessert: Bananas Foster: everything you want. Case closed.Our server J was awesome! Took our experience over the top. We will be back for sure, lots more to try.

Ok so this place was so yummy! The service was great. The ambiance was great. They had a busy week and were out of a lot of things but they still had plenty of options. The cocktail special of the night was yummy and so pretty with the rose mold ice cube. The lobster chowder was good but didn't have much lobster pieces in it. I saw just one piece. The chopped salad was so good with the lemon vinagerette and goat cheese. Amazing flavor. I ordered the 6 oz filet which came with carrots and whipped potatoes. It was overcooked but still good. We had to wait a bit for our table but it was worth the wait. You enter at the door that has 75 above it. It is a speak easy style so not very obvious where the entrance is. P&L is next door. You wait until the host takes you upstairs. Definitely a hidden gem. The drive out was a bit scary. Dark and windy roads. Highly recommend for people on the south side esp.

The ambience is beautiful, perfect for a date night or girls night out. The food was delicious, especially the crab cake. Service was quick and very friendly waiter.

The service is good, the ambience is very nice. The food is pretty good (not outstanding). Presentation is somewhat lacking. We've been there 3 times. The food portion and presentation is way overpriced. A 6oz steak came with only one small scoop of potatoes, no garnishes or other sides. A salad was add'l $12 and up. For two people on Valentine's Day with one cocktail each, wine, dessert it was almost $300 without tip. There are some good choices much more reasonably priced on the south side now to go to with outstanding food quality and value. Some of the nicer steak houses in downtown Indy offer a better value. I'd like to see this restaurant do well, however, the food value needs improvement.
