I have been helping my best friend with planning her reception this summer and we made an appointment to see the mosaic event. We had family here to see the venue and we waited for an hour. We called and called and the owner never answered the phone or called us back from the voicemail we left. We then sat in front of the building for an hour and a half, two more of her appointments showed up and said that they had appointments at one o'clock and she was not there yet. My friend was really set on this place so I called two days later to reschedule and the owner was unapologetic and told me that she was at a lunch for her nephew. She told me she never made the appointment with us at tweleve because she had something else to do that day. She told me that I was wrong and she was there at one even though we were outside till 1:30pm. I waited on the phone with her to see if she would at least be nice and understanding that she did make a mistake but she was not nice and had no way of trying to help the situtation as if she didnt care!!! I have worked in hospitality and beverage management for over 10 years, I have worked for our govenor Mitch Daniels for special events as well as people like you and I and I would never treat someone the way we were treated without at least an apology. Advice for the owner if you are not happy with dealing with people one on one mabye you should get a advocate or manager with good interpersonal skills to run the front of your business. And with the economy like it is and events not being a priorty to many people these days , you need to keep all the business that comes your way. ...read more

The managment here, especially Mary Anne, would do well to learn that it pays to be polite to the community they serve and operate within. I wouldn't recommend doing any kind of business with Primo's purely on the basis that this ""Owner"", as she proclaimed almost hissing at me and my children during a recent encounter, is self serving and quite rude. If I am going to pay upwards of thousands of dollars to anyone, they better be able to at least pretend to have my best interests in mind! ...read more

Our table guests all purchased tickets a couple of months in advance of the event and we all looked forward to attending. However, we were all more than disappointed not only in the quality of the food, the small portions we were served, and the lack of professionalism of how the murder mystery portion of the evening was presented. Back to the food: extremely small portions (one of our guests only had two soup spoons of mushroom soup), the salad was suppose to be a beet salad which in reality was a small portion of Romain lettuce with three croutons a a splash of dressing, the linquine was a baby sized portion with two small sections of tomato and one 1" piece of aspperagus, the stuffed chicken was so dry (and virtually no stuffing) and hard to swallow that most at our table ate but half or less of it. In fact, the first piece served one guest was burned to a crisp on the bottom. The advertised dessert never was served to us. As far as the "Game" part of the evening went, two words, Too Long! The facilitator kept talking about Ireland using the same game for what reason it impacted us I don't know, and was using a microphone to tell the 300 guests scattered through out the building what to do next, but she yelled so loudly, it was very annoying and unnerving . So, would I recommend this to anyone else? Easy to answer, NO. For that kind of money, you're much better off heading to St.Elmos! ...read more

I can't stand a restaurant with smelly stale carpet. Wet and musty. It's just nasty. Red Lobster needs a major over haul! ...read more

Never thought I would sign up for a review site to post a negative review but feel I am doing a public service to anyone who might visit. My wife had several good experiences a few years back at the Prop, so we took a client to tea this winter. What a mistake. The tea was not hot with only 2 choices and the scones not edible. The service was poor, and the manager on duty was belittling an employee in front of everyone. We could not hear each other as the same woman was speaking so loudly on her cell phone about personal problems. Round two: my wife makes reservations for Easter dinner here, which is the only place we could get in (should have been a big clue). An even worse experience. The food was flavorless, limited choices, poor service, and very overpriced. Frankly, I had not heard good things about this place recently, but we now know for ourselves. This food critic has done his due diligence here, and will not be returning anytime soon. ...read more

A for architecture. This building is a gem on the old northside and has a wealth of history that has been well preserved.\t\n\t\nD for food. Sandwich was overpriced and lukewarm. Waitress was not friendly when it was mentioned.\t\n\t\nF for service. It too nearly forty minutes to be served and there was only one other table occupied.\t\n\t\n ...read more

I just had the best date of my life this week end. Took my new friend to the wine tasting dinner and had a great time. Eight course meal with a different wine for each course. It was just the right amount of food and wine for the perfect evening. The Propylaeum is a hidden treasure in this neighborhood. ...read more

I saw the Groupon for their 8-course dinner with wine pairings and thought that $35 (originally $75) was a great deal for this package, so I purchased 5 certificates to take my family. The "8-course dinner" was very misleading because the helpings were sampler/small plates in size. Even more misleading is the use of the phrase "wine pairing". You were given enough for wine tasting, but certainly not wine pairing for an 8-course meal. So basically, you got to "taste" 8 types of dishes and "tasted" 8 types of wines paired with the dishes for $35. Okay, that's fair. But here's the real rub. We were given an event calendar and saw that these 8-course dinners/wine pairing for $35 were listed in the events....not the $75 that they said was the value in Groupon. So Groupon wasn't a discount after all. The real kicker though is that they added 18% gratuity and 7% sales tax on the $75/per person price! They were charging sales taxes on the other $40 that was never a sale! They eventually took $20 off my final bill, but the other 150 diners last evening without a doubt overpaid. The wine was nice, but the food was not consistent. There were two dishes (sample plates) a beef burgundy and chicken with rosemary that could have been an MCL cafeteria selection. So for the evening, I paid $250 for 5 people to have 8 sampler plates and 8 tastes of wine. Take that money and head for Fogo de Chao.\t\n\t\nOne other note to the owner of the catering section of this place. It was good to get wine advice, but stop there. You have people wanting to have a lovely evening with their group and don't need to hear you bragging about what Queen you met and the rich old Grandfather who had something major to do with whatever publishing giant. All the name dropping you were doing made you look like a desperate wanabe. Sorry, but it became a joke around the tables. ...read more

A friend of my wife recently got married and had her reception here. It is truly a lovely place and we anticipated a lovely evening. We entered and were directed into a small back room where staff was eating. Our food was cold upon arrival. We could not hear anything from the main room and the acoustics were awful/non-existent. We never received cake, and witnessed one of the employees yelling at the groom in front of the entire room. The guests we chatted with shared that the staff, one member in particular, had treated the bride, groom, and the families very poorly. I hope that they do something since their event was ruined by this bad behavior. You can't get away with that for very long or you will be out of business. We will never go back and that seemed to be the sentiment of those around us too, along with pity for the bride and groom. Too many other great places to enjoy than to go through hell with this place. ...read more

MBP Catering did my daughter's wedding reception 8 years ago and all the guests and relatives are still talking about how wonderful the food and service was. They are wonderful and I highly recommend them to everyone. ...read more

MBP is the best Indianapolis caterer. My husband and I own a company that often provides food and beverage for our clients. We used to use a different caterer, but decided to switch due to poor service and food quality from the last caterer. The first event we did with MBP, we knew we would never use another caterer. The quality was top-notch and our clients raved about the food and service. We are so grateful to have found such a wonderful caterer in Indianapolis!! ...read more
