“Hello My Foodies. I was on my adventures again in Indiana. I stopped by this place with my family. I always passed by this place but never stopped in until I finally did! The people who worked there were super nice. We were the only ones in there at the time so we got great service ofcourse. The food was good. Those appetizers were so good tho. It was some kind of pizza bread. Never had that before, and it was pretty darn good. The burger was good as well. I recommend checking this place out. It is small but there is parking on the side.“

“I called for carry out. I asked if they were Neapolitan pizza? I was told yes. So I ordered a medium, Neapolitan pizza and what I recieved was not Neapolitan. This would have been a 5 star review had the crust been Neapolitan or had I just wanted a thin crust pizza. My issue is this is not Neapolitan pizza, even if it's very tasty pizza.“

Ammirato's Meatball Cafe Salad •

“Will definitely be going back again! We had the meatball bowl, pizza tots, and meatball panini and all were amazing. I had the spicy meatball in my panini and it was delicious. Not overly spicy, just the right amount. Pizza tots were a fun and different appetizer and it did not disappoint. We also had the lemon cake which was very good too. Great customer service as well!“

“Our food was great. Romano's has been a fixture in Highland since we moved there.I had the chicken parmesan sandwich, others had the roast beef and onion rings, chicken tenders and fries.They were all very good.Next time I will have the ham and mozzarella hoagie.I didn't have the hoagie this time because I had made hoagie's at home a couple days before. They were good but not quite the same as Romano's.I haven't had the roman burger lately but plan to another time.We have not tried the steak and cheese hoagie.“

“This was our first time here. We came out for our daughter’s birthday. We were so pleased with our whole experience! Our server, John, was a delight. His humor was our kind of humor. My husband ordered a steak “rare” and much to our surprise, it was actually “rare”! Like really rare. My husband was beyond thrilled. I ordered the short rib and it was delicious! The grill work on our dishes was so fantastic! From the grilled asparagus, to my short rib to the pièce de résistance, the ribeye, was as good if not better than anything we make on our backyard grill! Kudos to Skip, tonight’s grill master! Also, thank you to all the staff that came and sang Hapoy Birthday in Italian to my beautiful daughter. You made her day!“

“*** EDIT- we were very pleased that management corrected things and allowed us to give them another shot. This time around the customer service was way better and the food looks way better than last time. I appreciate management reaching out and making things right with us it does show that they care about their customers and their dignity. Thanks state line in Dyer !We usually go to Schererville because they never mix up our order and its always awesome. But today we went to dyer because schererville is closed on tuesdays. The customer service was horrid, employees were so rude. They absolutely burnt our bread sticks. And then the lady working up front ran out and knocked on my car window stating i didnt have the right food and that she didnt give me the right bag. I had to physically show her everything in my bag was MY ORDER. this location is a disappointment. Never again.“

“I ordered a John's sausage pizza for pick up. The pizza was ready for me when I arrived. John's offers a unique pizza cut. The sausage was crumbly, spicy and generously topped on the pizza. The pizza crust was amazing.I grew up on John's pizza when I lived in the Calumet region. My family usually visited other locations....Hammond and Calumet City. It's probably been 15 years since I last had John's. I picked up the pizza pictured and it was the same quality as the pizza I grew up on. Munster's John's did not dissappoint. I would recommend John's to family and friends. I'll visit this location again the next time I'm in town. John's is a gem in the Calumet Region.“

“Aurelio's pizza is another establishment with great pizza and chicken On their buffet If the location has one. Northwest Indiana is fortunate to have several pizza establishments in the region that are outstanding. You can have pizza 7 days a week from a different location and never get tired of pizza. Aurelio's pizza is one of those great places you can sit with your family and enjoy your pizza and time together. Aurelio's pizza is definitely worth stopping in.“
