Any suggestions on where to eat for 22nd birthday? (Greenwood: food, dinner)

Hey everyone,
I am from the Indy area, and will be going out downtown after we have dinner on Friday night for my birthday. Are there any suggestions on where I should eat for my birthday? Nothing TOO expensive, in the past we went to Texas Roadhouse, S'getti Factory, Cheeseburger in Paradise, etc. I just wanted to go somewhere else and I can't seem to think of something. Requirements: Family appropriate (of course! my parents and baby sister will be there!), not too expensive, fun, and will allow large groups, and is on the South Side (greenwood area) or closer to downtown.
Any suggestions on places to go afterward? We are mainly Tiki Bob goers but I am willing (and ready) to try something new! THANKS!!

Most enjoy the Cheesecake Factory for an interesting meal. Allow enough time to read the menu, it is huge, and the portions are very very big. Consider this when ordering and think about sharing. Friday is a difficult night so I suggest calling for reservations or understanding there will be a wait.

Enjoy, my birthday is Friday also. Hooray.

thanks! I have been there before with my boyfriend and LOVED it! I will definetly be putting that in the running for Friday night! Also, I think that it is AWESOME that we share the same birthday!

For a family meal I would recommend Buca di Beppo. There is a location downtown on Illinois and one on 31 in Greenwood. Entrees are served family style so you can try several things. My family enjoyed the downtown location a few months ago. We ordered 3 items for four people. It was WAY too much food so we had lunch the next day. My sister's bday is on Friday also. Mine was last week. Happy B-Day OP and Sweetana3!
