Indiana is full of incredible, eclectic restaurants that are like no place else in the world. From a world-class brunch restaurant to an incredible restaurant where you can tailgate in the parking lot, there are a variety of unique eateries to choose from in the Hoosier state. And there’s one incredible restaurant that not only offers amazing food – it’s also completely underground… and you’ll want to check it out.

Down Under is a unique restaurant in Syracuse that seems to be incredibly tiny upon first look. But, that’s because the entrance to this restaurant is a small gazebo. The real eatery is located downstairs, completely underground.
