“This place was great. They made us feel like family and the food was fantastic. We got the chicken satay and crispy spring rolls and each came with homemade sauces that were delicious. The thai tea was one of the best I have ever had and the sushi (calumet roll, spicy tuna and the white dragon roll) was fresh. We ordered three rolls and it was served on a sushi boat which was a fun touch for my kids. The shrimp in the drunken noodles were huge and the dish was flavorful and authentic. We will definitely make a return visit.“

“We had a 50th Anniversary celebration here 5-4-24. We cannot say enough about how wonderful this restaurant is. The staff is exceptional, the room was beautiful, the food was delicious, every plate a picture that tasted as good as it looked. Everything was served at the same time and hot. From our fist inquiring to the last guest leaving they treated us like royalty and everyone felt very special. We can't thank them enough! We will be back!“

“I can't tell about the atmosphere of the restaurant because I got a delivery but I can tell you that I was extremely satisfied with the pizza I received lots of flavor maybe it could have been cooked a tiny bit longer but it was absolutely delicious“
“It looks like Hunter's doesn't need another five-star review but here goes... I enjoyed my first visit there a few days ago. The rauchbier (smoked beer) was excellent and a rare find, and the red ale, kolsch and lager were good as well. There are many others I haven't tried yet. Bill knows his beer and he pays attention to his guests which is becoming less and less common in a world of corporate microbreweries where your server often doesn't even drink beer and doesn't know a thing about it. The flatbread pizza was just what I needed to go with my drink, and the live entertainment from Beth Niemann went well with both. And they played Cheers on the TV rather than the usual sports. I'd rather look at Shelly Long than at a bunch of guys running around in helmets. I'm glad I chose to stay in Chesterton and visit Hunter's for my beer, and I'll be back.“

“I tell you what. I've been all over the region and hands down, Brown Bag has the BEST biscuits and gravy as well as their HUGE breakfast croissant sandwiches! The staff is always so pleasant and it is a small family business catering to the community in Burns Harbor as well as all the Steel Mill employees (me) and the truckers passing through... they all know where to stop!! Pricing is on point and I'm just glad we've got an option here in the Steel Mill aside from overpriced food trucks!!! Roxanne Saia Burns Harbor, IN“

“Came here at the recommendation of a good friend was definitely not disappointed. Its a smaller establishment so that was tough to deal with as far as anxiety goes, but we didnt have to wair long to be seated! Dexter aka Spicy White Tuna Roll was our server and he was efficient, friendly, and hilarious! I tried the Dragon Egg (what a masterpiece!) as well as the Autumn Lemon Roll (I LOVE lemon and was quite pleased). You get what you pay for here but it was an awesome sushi time!“

“It was our first time visiting here, while traveling through Indiana. And it was quite enjoyable. Milkshakes are 2 bucks on Mondays and who could pass that deal up? I had the chocolate peanut butter and it was so good. My husband had the mint chip which he really enjoyed as well. The burgers are big and the fries are delicious! Also, the Irish nachos are my fave! Hospitality was on point! Such lovely people working there. And it's a fun, 60's type atmosphere. Try it! You won't be disappointed.“

“Vegetarian options: As a long-term vegetarian, I’ve sampled many veggie patties over the years. The veggie patty at this Schoops location is AMAZING! The best I’ve had in a long time. Beware, each NWI location has a different veggie option-the one at this location is the best by far!“

“I have updated my review. Kosmos has become one of my go to places for an inexpensive, fresher option than fast food at lunch time. I regularly get the grilled cheese and soup special. It’s consistently great tasting and the service has always been very friendly!“

“Cozy, friendly, the food was really, really good. Possibly the best breakfast food in the area. The coffee I ordered great. Tge waiter had a good sense of humor, I'm goofy and take nothing very seriously and he picked up on that. Did a good job.“

“This place is rediculous! Amazing Food. Best Mexican restaurant in the Region Hands Down. The Alombre is amazeballs. The Burrito El Cantirito is so Good. The spice on the steak and chicken does the trick and the queso is the best. Oh yeah I almost forgot about the awesome Margaritas. Enjoy!“

“We had them for our son’s wedding and they were fantastic!!! James is wonderful to work with and is very responsive with communication! I still have guests talk about how wonderful it was and not your usual toppings! I highly recommend them! If you don’t have an event coming up then definitely go visit him by the Dunes!!“

“1st time here, so kinda limited in what we tried from the menu. Great pizza! The crust is a bit crunchy, but soft inside. Wonderful!! The toppings were nice and fresh and plentiful. A good amount of cheese on the pizza too. Not skimpy, but not overwhelming either, just right.Also tried the Spinach Galette, which was awesome!!! and the onion rings are good, but the onions themselves (inside the onion rings) were a bit tough to bite through. Good flavor and crunch on the breading though.2 kinds of Italian sausage ( 1 mild, the other slightly spicy), but with big containers of crushed red pepper on the table, a bit more heat is never TOO far away!Vegetarian options: Like most pizza joints, options for vegetarians are plentiful!!!!!“

“I never wanted to post a review on this place because I feel like it's a well-hidden gem in Valparaiso just off Calumet Ave. But I love the place so much that I've decided to share the secret. This is our go-to Pizzeria for Family Pizza Night. My very picky-eating daughters love this place for the mozzarella sticks, cheese pizza, and the fun, inexpensive toy machines that they have. We always order their wings because they are always served hot and crispy, as good wings are. The food never disappoints and we always leave stuffed and with leftovers to spare. The staff is always friendly and polite. They're always working and aiming to please. This place has excellent customer service and delicious food for a great price. No matter how busy, my family will continue to come here for years to come.“

“I have been coming here for years and I genuinely love the food and highly recommend it to anyone looking for Chinese food in Portage!Portions are generous as a combo plate + side of lo mein typically gives me two meals. Prices are super affordable too! Love the lunch specials, combo plates & egg rolls!I had mono last month and First Wok was the first meal I ate after a month of drinking only water + chicken broth (picture below is roughly 35-40% of what they give you I had a whole other meal for the next day). I love this place so much.“

“This place is pretty cute and we thought we'd splurge a little on a nice meal and drinks while traveling cross country. We were seated outside and realized it would be too loud with the traffic, train and people seated on either side of us so asked to be re-seated inside. We did tell the server why we would like to be moved.We got a cute table inside but then the waitress seated 8 women who were obviously celebrating something directly next to us which made it impossible to carry on a conversation.We ended up only ordering a charcuterie board (which was excellent). We would have loved to ordered meals and enjoyed the stay but the noise level was incredible. I guess my complaint is with the accoustics. With the combination of the high ceilings and being seated between the window and a row of loud, raucous other diners we were not able to enjoy our evening. My cocktail was beautiful and tasted okay. Not sure if it had a full shot of alcohol.Again- the mediteranean charcuterie board was excellent.“

“Explain to me how a stuffed meat pizza, and the best breadsticks I’ve ever had… is rated less than Taco Bell. Look Taco Bell is good, but not as good as this JJ’s Pizza Shack!!! Best Pizza in this area ? ? hands down! EVEN THE FRICKEN SALAD IS GOOD! ?“

“Sister ordered J&Js for dinner and wasn't disappointed. The delivery driver guy was nice. We had stuffed pizza with sausage,mushrooms, green peppers & peperoni. It's not bad for a stuffed pizza . We also had an Italian beef with mozzarella cheese and pepperoncinis. The sandwich was hot and delicious. I definitely recommend this place for something different to eat..“

“We've been meaning to try Cinco de Mayo. It looks nice from the outside and did not disappoint. The veggie burrito was delicious, but I wish you could have ordered just the burrito. The veggie is only available as a dinner option with rice and beans. Regardless, I really enjoyed it! My kids really liked their beef soft tacos and the veggie fajitas were a hit with our oldest daughter. Thumbs up around the table for Cinco de Mayo. It's been added to our Mexican roster in the Valpo/Chesterton/Portage area.“

“Great place to see a band. The restaurant and bar sides are separate. They seem to get a lot of repeat customers. A lot of people seem to eat on either side. The owners also do community events for charity. Also non smoking making for a better atmosphere.“
