Best meal I’ve had in St. Louis - by far. Great service, lovely ambiance, and everything on the menu is delicious. Can’t recommend enough - but make sure to make a reservation! Pictured are the palm sugar ribs, seared salmon nigiri, rice pudding desert and garlic chili noodles.

Flavor. That's all you need to know about Indo. The entire experience from the first to last bite is an experience in flavor like none other. Indo's small plates allow you the opportunity to try as many dishes as your heart (and stomach) desire. The only thing that could compliment the flair experience better is the exemplary stuff. From the moment we walked through the door,.we were greeted by the friendliest employees,.each ready to make our experience memorable. Be prepared for a pricey meal, but it's one well worth the money and experience. Note; Reservations are highly recommended, and Indo does require proof of vaccine upon entry and masks while not seated. Some photos courtesy of Simon Lam.

Words don't do the dining experience at iNDO justice but I'll give it a shot. First suggestion is to arrive early - 4:50p - and be the first in line to get a seat at the first come/first come sushi bar. Watching Nick and his staff prepare the sushi is like watching a master at work and it really enhances the meal. The quality of the sushi is unmatched in the area and the unique twist Nick adds to each piece is incredibly memorable. As so many others have mentioned, the shrimp toast is unlike anything I've ever tried. It's a must. The Isaan hamachi is my go to for sashimi - an incredible blend of flavor. The prices are on the high end but you're getting what you pay! I'm already looking forward to my next visit! UPDATE: Mask optional and no paperwork needed to get a seat! :-)

Wonderful food, probably the best Nigri selection in St. Louis! This restaurant is quite expensive however well worth the price if you're interested in quality nigri and South Asian cuisine. Service was quick and well informed. There is a two hour dining limit and I recommend placing a reservation if wish to eat here.

The food at iNDO is delicious and has all the flavor profiles you would want in a South East Asian focused restaurant. The Short Rib Curry is amazing, and is very filling. The Roasted Cauliflower is spiced very well, and the Chili Garlic Noodles is also a must try. Overall I would highly recommend for anyone looking to take their time and enjoy a very delicious dining experience.

First time, and it absolutely did not disappoint. We had a reservation for the patio but ended up wanting to sit at the bar(proof of vaccination is required to sit at the bar). Bo was preparing the food and it was amazing to watch and ask for recommendations, very knowledgeable and engaging, all of the fish was remarkable, very fresh, thoughtfully prepared and paired. An absolute must in St. Louis will be returning ASAP.

honestly super impressed with the quality of service; i sat at the bar to dine alone, which was admittedly a little chaotic, but my bartender (Kenny?) was helpful and attentive; they also gave me a complimentary piece of salmon sushi after inquiring on what i liked. was also comped an item after a little mix up with the tab. the scallops are divine. the gyoza and crunchy rice are very good, but word of caution to anyone dining alone, both of those dishes are easily 2-3 servings (i didn't find serving portions lacking as some other reviewers). also highly recommend being proficient with chopsticks.

The food was great! Portion sizes are quite small but the quality was there. Service was excellent and the presentation was lovely. We were sad to miss the seasonal items from last month, though.

Indo was phenomenal. Excellent service, great food & presentation, and the vibe felt intimate. Perfect place for a date. The food was absolutely delicious. They change their menu between seasons, so I'll definitely be back.

Food was beyond delicious!! First time trying and it did not disappoint whatsoever. If you’re reading this trying to decide to eat here or not… Make the reservation!!!

I’ve eaten here many times, the way they prepare sashimi is unique, filling and absolutely delicious. Don’t forget to use the spoon, it’s there to prevent one from licking the plate! Although I’ve come close, the sauces are that good. Highly recommend (after multiple experiences) in order of favorite: Isaan, Masu, Bluefin, Yellowtail, Tuna. Hand rolls are good, however in my opinion, the sashimi is a must for first timers. For cooked options; Shrimp Toast, Japanese Eggplant are excellent as well as the rice pudding, it keeps the meal light at the end. No pictures of the Crab hand roll, but that’s a winner! Service is impeccable too. This will always be a place I return to when visiting STL.

Indo is not merely a restaurant, it's a captivating culinary voyage that transports your palate straight to the vibrant flavors of Southeast Asia. Situated in the charming Tower Grove neighborhood of St. Louis, this gem of a place stands as a testament to the extraordinary culinary genius of the owners, whose legacy at Nixta is evident in every nuanced flavor profile that Indo offers. Stepping inside Indo is like entering a dimly lit sanctuary of gastronomic delight. The decor is sleek, elegant, and subtly Asian, exuding a sense of understated sophistication. The intimate, albeit somewhat cramped, setting makes it an ideal haunt for those special, romantic occasions. If you're seeking a dining space bathed in bright light, you might find Indo's ambiance a tad too subdued. Yet, it's precisely this dark, cozy environment that adds to the charm and mystique of this extraordinary establishment. The food, however, is where Indo truly shines. It is a symphony of flavors, a culinary kaleidoscope that leaves you mesmerized. The Spicy Tuna Handroll is a revelation; it dances on your tongue and entices your palate with its invigorating spice. The Yellowtail Sashimi, a treat for seafood enthusiasts, is arguably the best in St. Louis. This delicacy is a testament to the quality of fish at Indo, and it could even rival some of the best New York has to offer. The Gyoza and Shrimp Toast are each a sensory delight, their textures and flavors perfectly harmonizing to create a gastronomic masterpiece. The Cabbage Salad is an exercise in simplicity, yet it bursts with a freshness that will make you fall in love with greens all over again. The Palm Sugar Ribs are a succulent treat, while the Sake Yaki and Vegetable Crunchy Rice provide a hearty, fulfilling experience. However, the star of the show is undoubtedly the hand rolls. Delectable enough to warrant ordering at least two per person, they are the epitome of Indo's culinary excellence. Indo is not just a top-tier Asian restaurant in Missouri, but it undoubtedly stands as a beacon of exceptional South Asian cuisine in the Midwest. It is an experience that transcends dining, offering a journey through an exotic landscape of flavors and textures. This isn't just a meal; it's a culinary adventure that promises to delight and surprise at every turn.

During my recent visit to St. Louis, I had the pleasure of dining at Indo, a restaurant I hadn't been to since before the pandemic. Indo offers a delightful selection of Southeast Asian-inspired dishes and Japanese hand rolls, which made for a truly exciting culinary experience. We indulged in numerous starters, a few items from the raw section, and some shared plates. Our server was attentive and thoughtful, skillfully coursing out our dinner. The Isaan Hamachi, featuring yellowtail with candied garlic, Thai kosho, and coconut naam pla, was a standout dish. The fish was fresh, and the combination of citrus and spice created a perfectly balanced flavor profile. The Massachusetts scallops were cooked to perfection, elevated by the accompanying lump crab, shrimp butter sauce, and sweet pea purée. The Laarb, composed of lamb tartare, spices, and candied peanuts, was another highlight of our meal. The tokujo uni toast, which showcased sea urchin on milk bread, was yet another delectable bite. Our meal also included a variety of other dishes: cabbage salad, gyoza, shrimp toast, crispy tofu, palm sugar ribs, Japanese eggplants and hamachi kama. We shared the laksa, Indo's creative spin on the classic Southeast Asian noodle dish. Their version featured mussels, prawns, ikura, and chili oil in a rich red curry broth, which was bold, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. For dessert, we ordered coconut apple rice pudding and grape soda ice cream (the flavor of the day), while our server kindly brought out a miso banana upside-down cake as well. The ice cream was intriguing and delightful, while the tender texture of the banana cake paired beautifully with the sweet and savory soy condensed milk. Our entire dining experience at Indo was truly enjoyable, and we are grateful to our server and the rest of the staff for making it such a memorable meal!

Everything was beautiful. The server was sweet. The ambiance was stunning. The staff was upfront about the added 20% gratuity rate & 2 hour meal limit (which is gracious). The food is flavorful. The rooms were very inviting and intimate with plenty of elbow room and space for dishes. The servers are knowledgeable about their dishes and make great recommendations. I would recommend.

10/10. Food, atmosphere, service…everything! I am beyond impressed with the wonderful service and every single thing we ordered was delicious!!! Good service is so hard to find nowadays and this place nails it. Serving sizes are perfect, I ate every last bit of my crab fried rice . lol You won’t regret it…make your reservation now!

The atmosphere of this place is phenomenal. The fact that they already included 20% gratuity on our bills was a plus for me. I take care of my servers. I had this fried yellowfin. 😭 crispy on the outside, moist inside and packed with flavor. Their chocolate torte, with toasted sesame on top. I don’t know what sorcery they put on their dishes but they’re all so good!! We went back and this time I brought my partner with me, and we had the candied ribs. 😭😭 yummy! No pictures because, devoured. Lol all in all. This place is amazing. I’m definitely coming back!

Amazing food, great service. We had the cabbage salad (had a nice kick to it), ribs (DELICIOUS), gyoza (nice presentation, great taste) and finally the noodles (omg! Just great). Will definitely come back whenever I am in St. Louis.

The food was absolutely amazing, and I highly recommend trying any of the Sashimi dishes. I celebrated my birthday here, and the patio had a cozy and romantic atmosphere. The service was excellent, and I was thoroughly pleased with everything. It's definitely a great place for a date night or a night out with friends.

If you're looking for a place to be open minded and try new things, this is the place. Each dish, cocktail, and dessert is curated with levels of flavors from the very first bite or sip to the explosion in your mouth and after you swallow. Talk about layers of different flavors from sweet, to tangy, to succulent. Indo is such a great restaurant and deserves to be listed as one of the top restaurants not in St. Louis but all of the Midwest. I've never had a restaurant that literally made me savor every single bite with every single dish. It's a unique experience. It is definitely by far one of the best restaurants I've been to in awhile. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Everyone worked together as a team to bring out dishes as as they were prepared. Each server took the time to explain what we ordered prior to us indulging. Our main server, Sarah, recommended some amazing selections. 👏 👌 The atmosphere was trendy, the decor was modern chic. Everything about this place was just on point. Nick, you did a great job!!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Amazing food. As a sushi lover I love when I can still be surprised and experience something totally new. The staff was perfect and everything about my experience was great. I’ll definitely be back.

There is not one single negitive thing I could possibly say about this place. We stopped through St.Louis on a trip west and this is the only place we ate. And honestly it’s been one of the better places I’ve ever been. Make sure you ask about the off menu items. They were the best part of the entire meal. Also - the lamb tartare was out of this world.

Stunning presentation and beautifully balanced dishes in both taste and texture. Waitstaff were attentive and knowledgeable, and the back patio is gorgeous. The shrimp toast is not to be missed!

Meh. The food was good, don't get me wrong. I expected something more with the 6 week wait for a reservation and $315 for 4 people ($90 alcohol for 7 drinks). I'm glad I went once, but probably won't go back. I had small omakase. A good option if you are overwhelmed by the choices as I was. 2 of 3 cocktails ordered were not good

Wow wow wow!! Unbelievable in every way. Every bite was a new experience and truly special. Highly recommend checking this out. We got the crispy tofu, chili garlic noodles, Kombu potatoes, and a small omakase which is 3 hand rolls. It was all great and way more flavorful than expected. The staff were all super attentive and friendly. We got an outdoor seat but it was very comfortable and heated which was great. Also the cocktails were truly spectacular. Different than anything I’ve had before and all of it was super good.

If you are feeling brave the Omakase (22-36) is very fun. The seaweed is physically difficult to eat but the taste of the fish is fabulous. Shrimp toast was very delicious ($18). If you are picky you can easily pick off the cucumber salad. Palm sugar ribs are seasoned incredibly well ($18). With a cocktail be prepared for $50+ bill. Tip is automatically applied.

Had an amazing time here the other night with my spouse for our anniversary dinner. We started with the delicious shrimp toast, which was a riot of flavors and textures. Then we had a spicy tuna hand roll and the laarb, both excellent in their own way but the contrast in flavors, textures, and temperatures in the laarb was simply divine. We then had the garlic noodles which were some of the best noodles I ever had. We finished off with the ice cream of the day. Definitely recommend this place to anyone that enjoys a fine dining experience and delicious Asian flavors.

Every single dish at iNDO is crafted to perfection. It is made abundantly clear that every element in a dish is present for a reason. Even the design of the tableware is thoroughly pre-determined to enhance the eater’s experience. For example, the Garlic Chili Noodles come in a larger bowl with black garlic smeared on the side of the bowl so that eater’s can taste the noodles with different amount of black garlic added in each bite. On a separate note, the portion sizes are ideal for sharing. Most items can be split among three people or more. The Temaki (Hand Rolls) are recommended to suit one per person, although those too can be shared if desired. Our party of five loved everything on the menu. iNDO is an experience that lives up to its awards.
