“Nick, the owner of Albano’s, showed our family a level of generosity we will never forget. I reached out to him to cater my mom’s 75th birthday. She comes from an Italian family her grandfather emigrated from Alessandria del Carretto and she is very particular about her Italian food. Albano’s is by far her favorite restaurant and truly blows every other place out of the water. This birthday meant so much because my mom hasn’t been well. I wanted it to be special and intimate. When my husband picked up the food, Nick insisted we not pay. We were completely overwhelmed by his kindness. The food was absolutely incredible and everyone raved about it. We can never thank Nick enough. If you want authentic Italian food made with heart, Albano’s is the place.“

“Went on Valentines Day, was told about an hour wait, gave them my phone number and was going to get a call when my table was ready. They had a cancellation and my table was ready in 15 minutes, not bad for 4PM on a Saturday during V-Day. Food was absolutely delicious, good portions, service was great. It was very busy but they were 100% on top of things, can't wait to go back.“

“Went in today with my son and infant daughter. There was a miscommunication between myself and the cashier that resulted in not having a combo added to one of the sandwiches. The store was quick to solve the problem. A bit later we had another issue with the sausage being burnt. I hated to even say anything because I had already had the issue with the combo but my son wasn’t going to eat the sandwich because it was burnt. The manager didn’t even hesitate and made him a fresh sandwich. Once that was solved everything was amazing. The food was hot and delicious. The beef was tender and the bread perfection. The manager and her entire team were super friendly and took great care of us.

Highly recommend the Valpo Buona!“

“After years of driving by, we finally stopped in for dinner. WOW! Everything was delicious. Mixed drinks were done right, salad was fresh, and our entrees were fantastic! It was Chicago quality food hidden in Burns Harbor, IN. Tiramisu was just the way we like it and the service, from the Hostess to our Waitress, were friendly and helpful. It's a small and popular restaurant so be prepared to wait...but it is totally worth it!“

“Always a great experience dining in or carrying out. Love how fresh and delicious the ingredients are. From starters, to salad, wraps, calzones, or pizza. We’re always happy with whatever we get and it’s such a fun place to bring our kids too. Love the beer options as well. Thanks for making us happy customers.“

“I had an antipasta salad and brownie.
The antipasta was delicious with the raspberry vinegrette, it is also enough for me to eat again tomorrow. I also got one of their house brownies, which was unlike any brownie I've ever had before. Awesome presentation on the brownie too, it stayed in place on its way here.
Ice cold pop wrapped in foil. Refreshing and low priced.“
