Indianapolis-area restaurants that opened and closed in July
August’s arrival marks the end of summer vacation and the start of a new school year. The ever-churning cycle of endings and beginnings is nothing new to Indy’s dining scene, which welcomed a fresh crop of eateries while saying good-bye to others last month.
For the third consecutive month, a beloved neighborhood spot said farewell after a 20-plus-year run. Meanwhile, regional chains expanded throughout the Circle City and the North Perry neighborhood received an infusion of Filipino flavor. Here are the restaurants that came and went in July — plus one to kick off August.
Restaurants that opened in July
Mambo’s Cheesesteak Grill, Salesforce Tower
111 Monument Circle Suite 120, mamboscheesesteakgrill.com, opened July 9
While the closure of City Market shuttered the original Mambo’s, the cheesesteak outfit has maintained booths at Gainbridge Fieldhouse and The AMP at 16 Tech.

Situated next to the recently closed Yolk location, Mambo’s brings its renowned cheesesteaks and other sandwiches to the corner of Pennsylvania and Ohio streets.

MOTW still has three Indiana locations: Eagledale, Fishers and Carmel.
Rene’s Bakery
6524 Cornell Ave, closed July 14
After more than 20 years in Broad Ripple, this beloved bakery announced it “will most likely be closed indefinitely” amid owner Albert Rene Trevino’s ongoing health concerns. Rene’s opened on Cornell Avenue in 2004 and sold a variety of pastries while amassing a loyal customer base throughout its neighborhood and beyond. That community showed out in full force when Trevino’s daughter Olivia launched a GoFundMe to help pay for her father’s medical bills — the fundraiser has netted more than $85,000.

Indianapolis teacher talks new challenges ahead of first day of school

INDIANAPOLIS — For the past 25 years, North Central journalism teacher Tom Gayda has looked forward to the first day of school.
“I think it comes a little easier with knowing you know what to do on the first day,” Gayda said.
WRTV
On Thursday, Gayda will join teachers in Washington, Pike, Lawrence and Franklin Townships as they embark on another school year.
Indianapolis Public Schools and Center Grove are also back in session on August 1.
“You can always kind of reinvent yourself,” Gayda shared while reminiscing on his past 24 first days. “Even at the semester, you get a little chance to change things up. Every year is a new start and that’s kind of fun.”

Gayda is part of a teaching workforce that has seen its fair share of challenges since the COVID-19 pandemic.
According to a 2022 National Education Association survey, More than 55% of educators said they were ready to leave the profession earlier than planned.
The survey claims it is largely due to teacher salaries.
WRTV
Gayda says an evolving classroom has taken it’s toll.
“It’s been a lot of a lot of change,” Gayda explained. “My grade book used to be a notebook, and now it’s instantly online. There’s good and bad with that.”
Gayda faces a new challenge as a new Indiana state law prohibits the use of cellphones in the classroom.
“I mean, everyone has got their phone in their hand,” Gayda said. “I think (the students) will live.”
WRTV
Despite the challenges that come with a new school year, the end of each summer marks an opportunity for Gayda to reconnect with his students.
“Tomorrow, it’s more about getting to see people you’ve not seen in a while and reconnect,” Gayda said. “That’s kind of a fun thing.”
