Don’t leave Patties of Jamaica without grabbing some of their signature spicy ketchup.

Reddit strikes again with a very important question: What’s the most unassuming looking place in Indy with the best food?

Here are a few of the top answers:

“I love Ichiban Noodles! The owners are so nice and the sushi is great. They don’t do anything crazy, just a great spot with a lot of charm and atmosphere to get some classic, hearty nigiri and simple rolls!”

“I love Patties of Jamaica. Stefan treats people like family. Get a frozen pack of patties to go so you can scratch that itch when it hits!”

Mama’s Korean is straight fire. Great dine-in date, take home to cook yourself, or take-out. They even sell Korean and Japanese beers to go.”

“Just finished my leftover Chicken Marsala from Vito Provolone’s. I’ve never ordered anything else in close to 30 years. Always wonderful.”

Tortas El Guero is literally a little shed in the Home Depot parking lot. But the tacos are fire.”

What other secret spots look simple but are slinging incredible eats? Let us know.
