There is at least one great one, and several good ones

I'm not sure I'd call any of them "great," but there are some decent ones on each side of town. I used to love the one downtown--India Garden--but I think it's gone downhill a bit over the last couple of years. Their northside location is better. If you like Thai, we have some good places, too.

I do think the India Palace and the Shalimar (owned by the same folks) have really good food - especially on the ala cartedinner/carry out menu. I agree that the India Garden downtown, and their other location, have seen better times but it works for the occasional lunch.

Indy, where have you found a good Thai restaurant? I have given up trying to find one here that I like...

Come here! We have loads of Thai places!

Siam Square on Virginia (Fountain Square. They have a southside location called Thai Spice. It's near Greenwood Park Mall. I also like Jasmine Cafe on 96th, between Keystone and Allisonville.

I will have to keep that in mind - I still want to come and ride the Little Miami trail with you if you don't move here. It is still close enough that we can do that if'en you do

Cool, thanks! I tried to find one that I liked the first few years that I was here but eventually just gave it up as a lost cause. I love good Thai food and am quite picky where that is concerned...

I grew up here in Indianapolis and love it. I did however go to undergrad and grad school in Bloomington where the main IU campus is located. There is GREAT riding down there, as well as Brown County, which is only an hour and fifteen minutes-ish minutes away. I am back in Indianapolis now and must say, I was spoiled with the riding in southern indiana. There are places to ride here, but it's just different (can't really explain it).

Best of luck getting into med school, I hear the IU Med School program is quite difficult to get into! Regardless of what IU med school location you are placed at, they're all good. I have some friends who's parents are profs/docs at the IU- Indianapolis location and they seem to really enjoy it.

Good info, but you're over a year late. Owlie ended up at a school in Dayton. In any event, welcome to TE!!
