Are you under-stimulated?



Great Ambiance
Beautiful Decor
It has come to my attention that you are perhaps understimulated.  Not getting quite enough of the good stuff; the kick and juice that makes you feel alive and awake and happy to be barely surviving on this little blue speck of space lint we call home.


Does that sound about right? Is that you? Are you aching and craving and moaning deep in the night?  I know just how you feel.

It has therefore come to my attention that you could use some additional, shall we say, titillation.  Damn straight.  You are far from alone.

Fresh Brewed Ice Tea...
They say we are an increasingly desensitized country.  We are dejected and perpetually jaded, numbed out at a very deep level.  Everything's amazing and nobody's happy.  Why, just look around. It's like you can't get a tolerable cup of coffee.

Where do you look for stimulation?  Where do you find that vital and bracing slap to your id?  More importantly, just how intense do you need it to be before you feel it worth your time, attention, reaction?

Let me introduce you to the Brick House Grill, an upscale gastropub in downtown Huntington, Indiana at 19 West Washington Street, serving the finest sandwiches, steaks, and seafood for lunch and dinner.

Andrew and Garin are the owners of the Brick House Grill and they offer something truly real.  With an understated - elegant atmosphere, stunning plate presentations, and delicious, freshly cooked food, hope and salvation is finally here for us foodies. May I hear a Hallelu?

Battered Artichoke Hearts
Baby Bellas


Starters include Scotch Eggs ($8), Fried Artichoke Hearts ($8), and Stuffed Baby Bellas ($8), which are absolutely fabulous!




Salads are The Classic Cobb Salad ($8) with chicken, bacon, tomatoes, cucumbers, eggs, and cheddar cheese.  A Fresh Summer Salad ($8) with fresh strawberries, mandarin oranges, dried cranberries, red onions, almonds and bleu cheese.  And a Black & Bleu Salad ($10) which is topped with 6oz of prime sirloin, fresh mushrooms, red onions, cherry tomatoes and bleu cheese.

Nice thick and juicy burgers with all types of toppings and served with fries. Try the Helluva Burger ($10) which is topped with everything they have except the kitchen sink.

Brickhouse' version of the Chicago Dog!


Gourmet Dogs ($6) are 1/4pound all beef franks and served with Lager Rings. The Chicago Dog is missing the sport peppers and the poppy seeds and the NEON relish but beat out a road trip to Chicago.  Ever have a BLT Dog? Wrap bacon around the dog and fry it crispy then add lettuce and tomato; yummy!  And look at those onion rings!


The Drunken Englishman ($8) is a crispy fried beer battered fish sandwich, while the Southern Gentleman ($7) is a classic pulled pork sandwich topped with slaw. 

One pound of Bacon BLT


The BFBLT or is it BLFGT ($8) or maybe it is GLBT (just tell your server a whole bunch of initials and point to the menu!)  I can assure you it is not no normal BLT.  This baby starts with one pound of crispy bacon and is topped with fried green tomatoes.





Filet cooked to perfection!
Grilled Yellow-fin Tuna with Wasabi
Dinners include Lime City Sirloin ($16), 12oz N.Y. Strip ($19), 16oz bone-in Ribeye ($20), 8oz Filet Mignon ($22), Blackened Chicken ($16), Cajun Grilled Shrimp ($16), Bourbon Grilled Salmon ($16), and Grilled Yellowfin Tuna ($18) served rare with wasabi.


Spectabulous!
Dijon Dill Salmon ($16), Veggie Linguini Primo ($14), and Englishman’s Feast ($12) which is beer battered fish with fries and slaw.  The Pile of Pork ($14) is slow smoked and topped with whiskey BBQ sauce. And the Beer Can Quarters ($14) are plump chicken quarters slow roasted with vegetables in dark beer then covered in BBQ Sauce.

Sweet Potato on the side!
Fried Green Tomatoes
Side of Broccoli

The Brick House Grill is available to cater weddings, rehearsal dinners, showers, birthday or anniversary parties, or any type of celebration on or off sight.  They also offer a full bar (with many specialty martinis) and a nice wine selection and beer list.

Give them a call at (260) 224-6696 or check them out on the web at www.brickhousegrill.org and make sure to call for reservations because Awesomeness now has a name; and that is The Brick House Grill.
