The chicken teriyaki Philly was fire🔥. They pile on the fries. The Mexican food is flavorful as well. Open late too.“

“Flamingos has been in town for a long time. Nice little cozy place. A good perch dinner. We like a thin crust pepperoni pizza. The flavor of the pizza dough reminds me of Onos which was one of the Best pizza places, that has a Great flavor to it that you can not find anywhere. The cheese is stretchy when hot. Good flavor! Thumbs up?for Flamingos!“

“Fantastic food and a great price! Friendly family service. We were so lucky to have found this for a quick breakfast stop on our way out of town this morning. I would definitely recommend it, and hope it gains online presence so that non locals can find it more easily. I’d love to try their lunch too; it looked great.“

“Very atrentive staff and TASTY beers! Only $8 each which is way better than Chicago prices. They even gave our kids little toy packs with yo-yos and rubber spiders! I recommend the tot-chos (tater toots with nacho toppings over them) and the vanilla porter!

Wife says the Veggie Quesadilla is tasty with a lot of variety of vegetables, and she likes the IPA too. Steppin classss on Thursdays!“

“My server Brittany was AMAZING... The chicken crunch egg rolls I HIGHLY recommend...The pear martini with a sugar rim was on point.. I had a choice between the dim room or the half lit room, I chose the half lit because the setting and mood was just right for ot. I'm definitely going back next time to sit at the bar and get myself a flight of martinis. ..“

“Great Food friendly atmosphere“

“Stayed in Portage after visiting the Indiana Dunes. Ordered pizza to the hotel. Driver delivered directly to the room, the pizza was AMAZING! We also got the cherry dessert pizza which was the single best dessert pizza I’ve ever had (think warm gooey cherry cheesecake pizza)“

“Their food is soo good! We've had the kings bowl and the cranberry salad and both were delicious. Just tried the Baja bliss chicken quesdilla and it was amazing! I don't think they could make bad food! Would definitely recommend!“

“Great customer service. Exceptional wait time. Their Lincoln burger might just be one of the best burgers I’ve had if not the best. Served on great French bread, sub style. Will certainly be returning to try their other burgers.“

“All the steaks were undercooked. When I told the waitress that it was not making my belly feel very good, she said it looked good to me. I would have eaten it. Medium Rare is not maroon deep red. I ordered the sirloin and shrimp. My kids had the kids' sirloin, and my son had a sirloin. When I complained and told them I didn't want anything else I felt sick from eating it that way the couple bites to get to the middle where it was super rare she came back with a bill and charged me for a shrimp meal. I had to argue with her and ask for a manager who did the charging of the shrimp meal, so I complained again. I told them I didn't come to a steakhouse to get a shrimp and wanted a good cooked steak they finally complied and comped my meal. I also told them my kids' steaks were not done right. My oldest ate them, though, because he can do more rare. Was overall a bad experience, I have been there several times over the years as we travel through going up Michigan and never experienced anything like this. I'm not sure we will stop again it has gone downhill.“

“Honestly pretty good gyros! The portions are very big too and do not skip on the sauce or toppings will be back when we are in town’!“

“Me and hubby come here every Sunday morning for soup. He gets pozole and I get chicken noodles the soups are amazing. We also buy their fresh bread and donuts. We drive from Merrillville which is not that far but their soups are worth it. Also, their service is amazing. Paula is a great waitress and so friendly and nice. We love seeing her every Sunday. It does get packed but it's worth the wait which is never that long either.“

“the bartenders are AMAZING!! 😉🥰“

“food was delicious , needed a place open on Christmas and was worth it“

“They always have good food. The service is decent, but they do not back up the mistakes that are made. I ordered a carry out pizza when I ordered my in restaurant meal i the pizza was made wrong when I called back. They said there was nothing they could do. so I bought a pizza we could not eat and had to give away“

“This restaurant was awesome. We walked in w a whole soccer team and parents and was accommodated. The owner and staff were very attentive and the food was amazing. The prices were very low for the quality and quantity of food you receive. It is all around a great value.“

“My family and I love JJ's! And if you haven't tried their version of stuffed crust pizza...it.is.a.MUST! We usually get a sausage and pepperoni stuffed crust and the whole pizza comes with a layer of crust on top! Not a thick layer, just enough to 'stuff' the pizza with delicious ingredients. They have pretty good mild/hot wings and they staff is always courteous. They messed up our order one time and we had driven to pick it up and didn't notice the mistake until we got home. We called them and they offered to deliver our order to us, no charge!“

“Best cheesesteak around with crispy fries“

“Tacos were delicious. Did carryout and was quick! Will be back!“

“They expect you to pay them to be rude. The woman at the front taking the orders needs a different job that does not require her to deal with the public because her communication skills absolutely SUCKS. No worries they have lost other customers and just lost another one and anybody that I can tell. They are definitely not the El Norteno of old so sad after decades“

“I have been coming here for four years. The food has always been great. My favorite recommendation for everybody is the curry goat and The turkey necks and the brown stew chicken cabbage is always seasoning well, rice always got seasoned. Everything is always seasoned to the gods. Great price as “

“I LOVE TACO TIA (CHEAP/SM)TACOS/(3× FOR $9+tax),MEXICAN DISHES. BUT DELICIOUS ? I USE TO EAT HERE (3×) WK WHEN I LIVED CLOSER. IT'S TWO RESTAURANTS AT ONE PLACE. HAMBURGERS/SALADS/PHILLY STEAKS/FOUNTAIN DRINKS-BOTTLE/ETC.. MUST FOLLOW SM INSIDE ROAD TO ENTER (AT LIGHT). SEATING IN BOTH SIDES. ? YOUR CHOICE. CALL-IN ORDERS/SOME DELIVERY.“

“era la primera vez que asistímos a tomar un almuerzo y la comida no fue la mejor elección tenía un sabor poco agradable como que se estaba descomponiendo“

“I randomly chose this restaurant as a meet up spot for friends who enjoy Thai food. Found just a spot off of Route 30 in Merrillville, I was so happy with the experience. Outside it looks like it was once a different restaurant but inside transports you into an absolutely lovely dining room. I had my go to Tofu pad Thai. I had been warned that their spice level may be higher than the average American version of Thai. No problem for me. It was delicious. Too many places make this dish overly sweet and this had that great balance of sweet, salty and sour. Our table also enjoyed various fried rice dishes, potstickers and a panang curry. Everyone enjoyed their food. Service was excellent. Our waiter did a great job making sure wedding had time to order. It is a small restaurant with a small staff but our food timing and service were spot on. I definitely would go back and I found a new “happy place.”“

“My friends and I ate breakfast there the other day. They had remodeled the place. It was brighter& cheery. The only thing I would recommend is bring in some round tables for groups of 6. That makes it Easier for talking & socializing while you eat. The waitress was very friendly and attentive. Our meals came quick & hot. The store area has many nice things but set up too crowded to actually look well to the point you might miss something you would actually buy. I would actually redo the set up of - how you display the products in the store area to be less congested. It’s just too overwhelming to see it all well in its current set up.“

“The best this far from the city LOVE THIS PLACE“

“Every Tuesday evening I travel from Crown Point to Portage to meet with friends. I have to decide what restaurant I will eat dinner in on the way. This restaurant always calls me back so I pass countless restaurants on the way to always eat here. I crave the Hot and Sour soup, a pot of hot tea and the Barbecued Pork Lo Mein. Nothing better in N W Indiana. Great food.“
