According to FoodLife, the most expensive restaurant in Indiana is the famous St. Elmo Steakhouse in Indianapolis. FoodLife says:

The history of <a href="http://www.stelmos.com/" target="_blank">St Elmo</a> is enough to justify its steep prices. The <a href="https://www.yelp.com/biz/st-elmo-steak-house-indianapolis-3" target="_blank">classic steakhouse</a> has been going since 1902 and many of its dishes, such as the signature shrimp cocktail, have been served here from the very beginning. It’s long-standing for a reason, with even its priciest main – the Tomahawk Rib-eye for $135 – worth a splurge. For the ultimate surf ’n’ turf, you can add lobster tail for an extra $55.

Now, I must admit that I have never been to St. Elmo Steakhouse, but I have heard nothing but good things about it. The steakhouse is one that I would love to visit the next time I visit. While I would love to enjoy that Tomahawk Rib-eye, I might venture for a cheaper option. Speaking of St. Elmo Steakhouse, they sell some of their seasoning, sauces, and liquor in stores all throughout Indiana. I've tried their Root Beer Gaze on pork chops and it is delicious!

I'm also a big fan of bourbon, and one that I have seen on the shelf that I plan on trying soon is the St. Elmo Steakhouse Cherry Vanilla Burbon. It sounds so good!
