What you should know about His Place Eatery

Jones was a lifelong resident of Indianapolis and attended Crispus Attucks High School and Arsenal Tech. He studied culinary arts at Ivy Tech before he and his wife, Shawn, opened the first His Place restaurant in a strip mall on Shadeland Avenue in 2009. The restaurant grew steadily in popularity and moved to 6916 E. 30th St. in the Arlington Woods neighborhood in 2012. In August, His Place opened a second location at 1411 W. 86th St.

His Place’s menu is a mix of the classic soul food and barbecue Jones grew up with and novel dishes he’s experimented with for years.

“Inspiration comes in many different ways and (we) just embrace it,” Jones said. “It’s all about playing with food. That’s what we do.”
