“We were in town for a graduation. We did not have a reservation, and they found room for the five of us. The service was excellent. The food was delicious. The cocktails were fun and tasty. My husband doesn't like mac and cheese. He ate half of mine along with his own dinner. Everyone at the table tried my mac and cheese dinner I ordered and loved it. Next time, I'm saying hands off.“

“Very fun place, our waitress was the sweetest and very considerate. Tried going two other times and couldn't make it. I'm so glad I was able to get in, dine upstairs, and dinner was excellent. It was so nice having grilled octopus instead of fried calamari. Lamb chops were perfect, and I had the "scalabet" for my entree. We finished it off with a cookie skillet. I was STUFFED, so it's worth it.“

“We ordered delivery. At first look, my dish (the ceviche) looked delicious, vibrant, and fresh. Sadly, it was pretty bland and flavorless. BUT it did seem some care was taken with the preparation, and I appreciated that it seemed freshly made!

We had some special instructions for the chimichangas which weren’t followed, but my son said it still was really good and seemed good quality :-)

We also ordered horchata, but that was never delivered.“

“Pikk’s Tavern might just be the best spot in Valparaiso. Went there tonight for my birthday and in July for my wife’s birthday. Jay was there both of those times and he’s so nice and welcoming. Natalie was our server this last time and she was the bomb as well. This place got me hooked on mules and when we returned tonight I seen they had an apple pie mule on the menu that I had to try. 10/10 that drink was absolutely amazing, I had to have a couple. I had the open faced steak sandwich with fries and my wife had the filet. They always bring out their signature steak sauce that’s made in house. At first I was skeptical because a good steak doesn’t need a steak sauce and this one definitely didn’t either. Juicy, cooked to perfection and flavorful. Well their steak sauce just turns it all up a notch. It’s good on the steak, fries or whatever else you want to dip or douse it in. Both times we’ve been there they’ve substituted our birthday desert for us as we’re not the biggest cake fans. They let us get the brownie and it is seriously the best end cap to dinner. We will be going here again and again for our special nights out as not only are the food and drinks delicious but the atmosphere makes you feel like you’ve stepped back in time but in a very homey way.“
