Family dining in Indianapolis

There's no signature Hoosier food, but the state is known for succulent tomatoes, pork tenderloin sandwiches, and flavorful corn on the cob. Well-known chains are robustly represented and some-such as Hard Rock Café, P. F. Changs, Buca di Beppo (known for abundant family servings)-are fine family choices. For lots of choices in price and taste, head to Broad Ripple, the artsy enclave and the north anchor of Indy's Midtown district. Downtown, go for a room with a view of the skyline or canal-or both.
