About this Neighborhood

Indianola Forest balances food and greenery: 44 restaurants and a deep 16-cafe coffee scene, both averaging 4.5, set against 13 parks. Yelp reviewers give it a 4.6, and the culinary range is genuinely wide, from Chinese to Mexican to American. The local favorites make that variety concrete: dumplings and stir-fry at N.E. Chinese Restaurant, a neighborhood breakfast at Emmett's Cafe, and grilled plates at Exotic Latin Grill. Foursquare tastes fill in the everyday layer with bars, pizzerias, and quick-serve spots, so the neighborhood works equally well for a lingering dinner or a fast bite.
