With only a modicum of perfunctory decoration, the starkness of Indigos brightly lit dining room is totally devoid of warmth. This atmosphere, however, is incongruous with the relaxed, California bistro feel conveyed by the menu. With selections from Celery Fennel Bisque and Pumpkin Risotto to Braised Lamb with Potato Gnocchi and Roasted Chicken Breast with Squash Puree, it provides diners with eclectic, but limited, choices. The chef makes excellent use of seasonal ingredients, delivering flavorful, but unimaginative, dishes, and the friendly wait staff lacks polish, but provides adequate service. While the wine list features interesting selections and even includes short descriptions of each wine and brief overviews of each wine type, it offers limited choices by the glass. Situated close to Opera Plaza, Indigo is good, but not quite there. All in all, selecting Indigo over other, superior establishments may leave diners feeling a little blue.
Pros: Opera Plaza Location, Intersting Wine List
Cons: Stark Decor
