Hear us out: Caesar salad, french fries, and a martini. The combo has been called “the perfect meal” by The Washington Post and lauded by TikTokers across the world searching for the perfect marriage of textures and temperatures.

Here’s where you can find your own pairing in Indianapolis so you can judge for yourself.

1933 Lounge | Multiple locations | Pair your meal with the very fancy Robin Lychee martini, made with Glendalough Rose gin, lychee, lemon, and a dash of Bittermens burlesque bitters.

Union 50 | 620 N. East St. | This restaurant spices up its salad with herbed goat cheese, giardiniera, and anchovies, while its fries are available in truffle oil, sea salt and parsley, and duck fat and rosemary varieties.

The Brass Ring Lounge | 1245 Shelby St. | If you’re hungry for something a little more substantial than a salad, opt for a chicken caesar wrap here instead. Bonus: It’s under $10, meaning you’ll have extra cash on hand for a second drink.

Meridian Restaurant & Bar | 5694 N. Meridian St. | Let’s hear it for a caesar salad made with fresh local ingredients on the cozy patio or by the fireplace.

The HC Tavern + Kitchen | 9709 E 116th St., Fishers | Love grilled flavor? You’ll enjoy this salad, complete with grilled lemon and herb crostini croutons.

Know of another place serving the perfect combo? We’ll toast to that.
