While I personally relish autumn's slate gray clouds, and brisk whisper knocking burnt orange leaves from thinning trees, I find myself having a mild case of withdrawals from dining outside around this time of year (this recent bout, no doubt, triggered by my recent weeklong visit to Florida, during which time I dined indoors precisely once).

Share with me, in the seasonally signature and soggy-leaf atmosphere of fall, what Indy restaurants have offered the best outdoor dining and enjoying cocktails?---patios, balconies, verandas, and what have you.
