“Steff is just all around 5⭐️ except when she throws a drink at me jk jk“

“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.“

“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!“

“We randomly stopped here on our way home for a quick bite to eat and to avoid Chicago rush hour. We ordered the Italian beef. Let me just say IT DOES NOT DISAPPOINT! It was super yummy! I spoke with a cook and they cook it overnight. Our server Mandy was friendly and took good care of us. Food was great and cheap compared to many other places. The atmosphere was laid back. I definitely would come back again just to eat. Seriously, if you want good food or a good sandwich. Stop and get their Italian beef!“

“To come to Cheers and not compliment Trish, Kelly, and Nikki would be a disservice to the lifeblood of this establishment. The drinks, the delicious food, the atmosphere, and the overall vibe are second to none. I LOVE this place and it comes down to the staff and the vibes.“

“A Valpo landmark and well worth a visit if you are in the area! The food is delicious, great craft beer selection and always friendly service. They also have outdoor seating, bar, bags pit, shuffle board. Inside they have a 'holiday' tree hanging from the ceiling, decorated with different themes ?.“

“I enjoy duffys place to catch up with friends. They have reasonably prices on food and drinks. I look for their specials and special music the most.

Parking: They have a decent amount of parking in front and back. When they are really busy it can be hard to find parking“

“Had a great experience. I got the chance to meet the owners and they were super friendly as was our server/bartender. Tap list was good and the smoked options on the menu were phenomenal. I highly record this spot if you are in the area.“

“Great place. Nice atmosphere“

“Stopped in here for drinks and food before a concert at the Hobart Art Theater next door. Took a while for my food to be made, but apparently they only had one cook on a Sunday with football going on. Would visit again before a show if we had time.“
