Boulder Creek - Brownsburg

Part of the Cunningham Restaurant Group (CRG) family, Boulder Creek Dining Company opened in 1997 in Brownsburg, Indiana. Over the last 15 years, we've made a name for ourselves with our homemade barbecue ribs, wood-fired pizzas, steaks and pastas. We invite our guests to relax in the ambiance of a rustic mountain lodge while enjoying excellent food and service. The recently renovated bar area, as well as a private dining room for more than 100, adds to our position as a neighborhood staple.

"decided to try boulder creek; just moved to area and looked nice, menu looked good online. Unfortunately, they were busy but that does not excuse lack of good service. Waitress was in hurry to take order, didnt put it in correctly so we got half of a meal. Waited on sweetener for tea for at least 10 min after asking 2 different people, had to go find some for myself. We had to speak to the manager and he was nice enough to comp the entire bill for us, but we do not intend on going back. This place is usually busy, therefore they know to plan for Sat. night crowds and should be staffed accordingly."

"They advertised a Mother's Day brunch and have a history of serving one. When they called me to confirm my reservation, they told me about the brunch. We showed up,...no brunch. Disappointing. Our waiter was a nice guy, but service was very slow. Normally good food was pretty mediocre. We are Boulder Creek regulars and usually enjoy it. I wish we had chosen something else on Mothers Day."

"We enjoyed our Anniversary dinner at Boulder Creek. The servers were most friendly. We loved the salads and the ribs, but were not so crazy about the blackened Mahi Mahi. It was well prepared, but we made it one of our combo choices even though we do not often like "blackened" dishes, so that was our mistake."

"Overall the dining was great but I thought it was very expensive for a buffet on Easter.. $110.00 for 5 of us and 3 were under 14. They did have a good selection but I'm not sure it was 110.00 good! But we will eat there again!"

"I used a generous gift card which brought me to this restaurant for a first try. I took my parents and my daughter. We visited Boulder Creek on Easter Sunday evening for a 6:00pm reservation. The shift manager was friendly and we missed the brunch rush treated to a relatively quiet, and sparsely filled back bar room with tvs. Our server was appropriately friendly and attentive. Between the 4 of us, we ordered calamari (excellent), braised pork shoulder (good flavor but a bit on the mushy side, seafood broil (excellent), chicken scaloppini (excellent but didn't care for the bleu cheese potatoes), and grilled sea scallops (fantastic and surprising tomato beurre blanc). We shared a delightful apple strudel with vanilla ice cream."

"The food keeps changing - and not for the better. I chose this restaurant specifically for my birthday dinner with family because I enjoy the chicken parmesan, but the dish I was presented with had cold, tasteless pasta and the driest, smallest chicken breasts I had ever had the displeasure of tasting. I was also offered a free dessert by the hostess for my birthday, but the waitress never mentioned it. We have been going to this restaurant for eight years and have seen it decline. The only reason it stays in business is because it is Brownsburg's only non-fast food restaurant."

"A little on the higher end as far as the price was concerned but the food was excellent so it was worth the money! The only down side to the evening was that they had a group of about 30 people seated right behind us and they were noisy. Generally killed the ambiance and romantic Valentine's dinner I had planned."

We also frequent and enjoy the other sister restaurants in Hendricks county.

"We went for brunch on a Sunday morning. The only breakfast item was french toast. The french toast was "mushy" on the inside. It was not good. It was still normal priced for Boulder Creek, so it wasn't an inexpenseive "nasty" breakfast- I don't think we will ever go back for brunch; however, I DO recommend Boulder Creek for any other meal. Normally, the food is excellent- but they don't know how to make french toast. I've ALWAYS enjoyed dinner and lunch!"
