Fifteen years ago, White Lodging redefined downtown Indianapolis hospitality landscape by topping out construction on what was the worlds largest JW Marriott and, still today, the citys largest hotel in Indianapolis - bringing a new level of luxury to the heart of Indy.

Today, that legacy of excellence continues as JW Marriott Indianapolis introduces the flagship location of Deans Steak & Seafood. Already making its mark in Charlotte, Austin, and San Antonio, Deans Steak & Seafood now arrives in Indianapolis as the crown jewel -a modern steakhouse that blends classic steakhouse fare with fine dining, all in a stylish yet welcoming atmosphere.

This opening marks a new chapter for the city's culinary scene, once again placing Indianapolis at the forefront of elevated dining experiences.
