Restaurants in Hammond

“We thoroughly enjoyed having our wedding reception at The Emerald Green. The new event coordinator, Dani, is truly fantastic. She is very familiar with event hosting and has a solid understanding of the wedding industry. It was a pleasure to work with Dani for her reliable communication, attention to detail, and professional coordination of vendors and reception timeline. Dani respected our floor plan design so the seating arrangement was exactly what we envisioned for our wedding. There was ample seating and space for our DJ, photo booth, dessert table and a gifts table. Our guests especially loved the food and the open bar. Overall, we were pleased with the entire server staff of The Emerald Green. If you are interested in a beautiful venue to host your next event, we recommend this!”

“Love this place, but the dining area is massively reduced (March 2025). Might be just getting worked on (?), not sure, but had family in from out of town that loves this place too and we couldn't fit our group so we had to go somewhere else!”

“Nice place good bartenders good jukebox. Old fashioned bar”

“We had Great time food was excellent. Yes even the bourbon cream corn was very good filet mignon was excellent mashed potatoes. Lots of them WOW!!”

“Visiting the area and family wanted us to try their brews as one of their favorites. Tried a flight of 10 beers and favs were Tangerine Trackstar, Toxic Words, Lucifer in a haze, Immoveable King, Nuban overlord and the top one Here comes the reaper. We also had the Pretzel and queso for snacks. They were very good and fast. They also had ice tea which is not always available at breweries. I will say the art work gave me pause and some of the names being a Christian but I don't know the background to comment.”

“Cool little place! Drive past it all the time and had no idea it was a bar. Stopped there last Saturday and it was such a great time. Not sure if they serve food there. Everyone was so friendly. Mabel the bar tender was awesome. Definitely will be back”

“Steve, Jenny, and Gen are all great bartenders who are quick to capture the vibe of their patrons and understand how to create a positive atmosphere behind and in front of the bar.”

“This place is a GEM. Super friendly staff and the pizza is phenomenal. So thankful to have found this local place on Google!”

“Give Dan the chef a raise! Absolutely the best cheesesteak I had from here! Flavor was phenomenal”

“This is my most favorite restaurant. The food is ALWAYS delicious. The owners are ALWAYS pleasant and welcoming. The restaurant is ALWAYS clean, and that is a big plus. Their orders are very fulfilling. I've also never received a wrong order. They absolutely care about their patrons, and that means a great deal. I live in Chicago, and have a Chinese food restaurant in walking distance from my residence, but I come here, and I wouldn't dare go anywhere else”

“Owner made a valid point.
My apologies.
They offered to clean a table for me. They had a pretty full restaurant.
The reviews said the food was really good.
I will have to check it out again next time. I did look in the refrigerator for ingredients in mineral water.
I prefer 100% natural mineral water.
No big deal as it wasn't a requirement.
I hope to check this place out in future.”

“You can’t go wrong with anything on the menu but if you’ve never had one, you need to try their cheeseburger.”

I would absolutely recommend stopping by if you’re in the area. I’ll definitely be back whenever I get the chance!”

“Stopped by after work to grab a couple of slices and the pizza had a generous portion of cheese on top and the undercarriage was delicious and crispy and not charred or burnt which was nice on a thicker crust! What happened to the phantom menace pinball machine?”

“Best best pho ever. I get pho combo each time. Egg rolls are delicious and wings are delicious I always come here for a few years now. Pleasant servers. Cordial and accommodating.”

👌🏿”

“After having a disappointing experience at another restaurant, we called Casa De Luz to see if they could accommodate our party of 13. From the moment we walked in, we were warmly welcomed, and the staff made sure we had everything we needed. The service was top-notch—attentive, friendly, and efficient. We had no issues with seating, and our orders were taken promptly without feeling rushed. The food? Absolutely amazing! Everything was fresh, flavorful, and delicious. You can tell they take pride in the quality of their dishes. On top of the great food and service, the prices were very reasonable, making the entire experience even better. We couldn’t have asked for a more enjoyable dining experience. If you’re looking for a place that values its customers and serves fantastic food, Casa De Luz is the place to go! We’ll definitely be back!”

“Pretty good food with great service. Unfortunately, inside is filthy & humid with multiple dehumidifiers running & multiple stacks of knockoff laundry detergent pails taking up 20% of the seating/waiting area. Dirty plexiglass separates you from the flattop grill. At least that allows you to watch the preparation of your food. I always get takeout, so atmosphere is acceptable to me for the authentic Mexican food 😋”

“The food is authentic as it gets. All the Polish food is made from scratch and the staff is incredible. Service is great and friendly. Absolutely give this place a try!!”

“omggg everything there is so delicious and all fresh made. if you ever need bread or sweets come here because you’re supporting a family owned business. i HIGHLEY RECOMMEND this gem please come and support them”

“They make the gyros the way I like it, the fries are good, they give you plenty of food for the price and the staff is excellent.”

“The joy I feel when I go to Home Plate Pub is indescribable! The bartenders are the friendliest and most efficient in all The Ville! The quality of the coke has gone down a bit, but the patrons that frequent Home Plate are some of the finest people that you’ll ever meet. The only other bar in Hessville that was FAR SUPERIOR the Home Plate was Brothers II, and sadly that fine establishment is no longer in business! RIP RON & SUE”

“Once again, a great meal!! Some of the best Mexican food in the region!!”

“Bianca did all of the desserts for my wedding and bridal shower, I got tons of comments from guests that they were the best cupcakes they’ve ever had! Our wedding cake was amazing too. Bianca is super easy to work with an made an amazing experience for us!”

“if anything just go there and tell them that your gonna "TRY ONE" and it's smooth sailing from there.hello to all the Sportman patrons!”

“I absolutely love this place! 😍 The people who work here are so wonderful and welcoming, they make every visit feel special 😊✨. The atmosphere is cozy, the food is delicious, and you can really tell they care about their customers 🍴💖. It’s one of those spots you’ll keep coming back to because of the friendly vibes and amazing service 🙌🌮.”

“Honestly, not bad at all! 😊 The drinks were really good and reasonably priced, which was a nice surprise 🍹👍. I also liked that the music wasn’t blasting, so you could actually enjoy it while still having a normal conversation without having to yell across the table. 🎶🗣 The crowd seemed to be a little more mature, but that didn’t take away from the experience at all. Overall, we had a really nice time and would definitely consider coming back! ✨”

“Tzatziki catered my wedding desserts and they were a hit. Thank you Andreas!”

“What an awesome place, every shake sounds like it would be delicious I can't wait to try them all. Their location is kind of obscure but very convenient it is right off of 173rd just west of Calumet. Directly across the street from Terry's aquarium and Walgreens. All of their shakes have natural ingredients and natural sweeteners and they use Herbalife protein powders and vitamin supplements.

Would definitely recommend”

“Not only does Tammy decorate and create the most beautiful cakes, Joy assists to every attention to detail! They both go above and beyond to satisfy the customer; And cakes are DELICIOUS!!! 😋😋 Oh and I would never forget to mention that ALMIRAS has THEE BEST DONUTS ever created! The homemade chocolate frosting is to die for with sprinkles as an added bonus!! 😉”

“This is seriously one of the best spots around for specialty drinks, delicious food, and an awesome atmosphere! 🔥🍹🍽️ The Henny Island is absolutely incredible and easily one of my favorite drinks of 2026! 😍🌴 The cocktail menu has so many amazing options that it’s honestly hard to choose just one. Every drink is creative, flavorful, and made with care. 🍸✨ The bartenders are also fantastic at what they do friendly, skilled, and always bringing great energy to the place! 🙌 If you’re looking for good drinks, great food, and even better vibes, this spot is definitely worth checking out! ❤️”

“Great customer service and good was fresh, hot and delicious!!”

“went there for the 1st time last Saturday for Nomad Planet show . Fantastic venue ! Very cool vibe great art work really good food ..had a taco and amazing pulled pork slider that was huge and delicious. We look forward to future shows ! we'll definitely be back .”

“Going there tonight to watch the 🐻 Bears beat the Rams I will let you know what I think about the place”

“Best Birria hands down. It's so flavorful you don't need cheese and they don't sell it. Very unique consume but definitely the best flavor I've tried.”

“Food was great, customer service was less than great. No smiling faces, curt service. They have drinks but you wouldn't know if you didn't ask. Handed my husband his soda, he asked if they had straws and she slid him one. Why not ask if he wanted a straw? Won't go back, even though the shrimp were pretty good. I value service more than anything.”

“Been coming here for 20 years this year. Great food, great service and great people who run it. I hope this place stays around forever.”

“Best beef and good prices”

“🍦😋 This is a fantastic spot to stop by when you're craving something sweet and delicious, with plenty of other tasty options to choose from! I ordered a cone and asked them to make it as huge as the John Hancock Building, and they definitely delivered! 😂🍦 I also grabbed a Polish beef sausage after noticing they carried Vienna Beef products. 🌭 Everything I bought was enjoyable, and I was happy with my choices. Next time, I'm planning to try one of their sundaes! 🍨 They have such a great variety of treats and food, so there's always something new to try. Definitely worth another visit!”

“A very clean bar. I didn't eat anything there or even know if they have a kitchen. The bartender was very nice and outgoing. The crowd was like an after work crowd. We were meeting friends there to go to a ball game. Had a great time, the time we were there. I would go again.”

“Hands down, best smashburger . Jacob is a master on the grill. Don't forget to try the wings Great owners and the bartenders are always friendly. Fun environment. They offer table games for larger groups such as Jenga and Cards against Humanity...so fun! Great bar.”

“When I lived in that region several years ago , Toni's was my favorite spot to ha. Ng out with new and good friends! Miss all of you so much , especially you Toni...Terry TC Carrico”

“The food was amazing, service was wonderful, and the place was very clean. I will definitely be back!”

“This place is awesome, from the decor to the staff to the food. Prices are fair especially for how delicious everything was. You can't beat the atmosphere of an old diner, especially with all the props all over.”

“catch it on a night I. the middle of the week, good food for quick bite and nice place together a drink with friends”

“I would definitely recommend this restaurant. Their food is definitely authentic and I'm not easy to recommend as authentic, prices are reasonable and service is great”

“We got the chicken tenders and they were very tasty! Very testy and fresh! Came with fries. Also got regular size veggie sandwiches which were about 8 inches. Came with your choice of potato chips/Doritos. Can only imagine how big the large sandwiches are! Call ahead, as everything is fried to order and tenders take 10-12 minutes and wings about 20 minutes. We will be going back again and again and again!”

“Hi House of Pizza! I have a question for the owner. I grew up eating your pizza in Hammond, Indiana, and it’s something I’ve always loved and remembered. I now live out of state and was wondering—would you ever consider shipping one of your pizzas overnight across the states?

I know it’s probably a crazy question, but I figured it couldn’t hurt to ask! I’d love to be able to enjoy a pizza from back home again. 🍕”

“I love the gorditas mostly the lengua en salsa verde that's my number 1 favorite and the agua fresca de melón it's so refreshing. And they have very good prices great family place”

“Service was great they were patient and helpful. Didn’t take long for me to get my food and everybody working there was very nice. I visited yesterday on my way home for the first time I’d definitely recommend this place if you’re in the area.”

“Sit at the bar and watch Neil and Greg concoct bespoke cocktails. They were both engaging and enhanced the experience. The barkeeps seem to be at their best when mixing brown liquors.”

“I went in and I was greeted immediately and I was able to get a booth by request. The restaurant was also extremely clean.
My server, Melanie, was extremely kind and she constantly checked up on us and made sure we had everything we needed. I ordered the appetizer sampler and it was delicious and a great temperature when I received it. I also ordered the lemonade splasher and it was amazing, 10/10 would definitely recommend!”

“great food,great staff,best buffet. i sometimes comes all the way from rockford,il”

“The horchata was not overly sweet and smooth! The pastor tacos were absolute perfection!! And I bypassed the red and green sauces for the spicy jalapeño sauce and it was the right choice! That stuff is amazing!!”

“the Chicago thin crust taste here in hammond. The butter crust is a must have. Not to mention it's so crispy so none of that floppy pizza.”

“There ain't no DQ like the Hessville DQ!!!!!!!!!!!”

“One of the best food in IN.”

“great people calm environment”

“such a good dining experience. The food was made fresh to order, Guacamole was absolutely delicious, the wings were fire, and the owner and his Family (His Mother especially) were very friendly and welcoming. I will definitely eat there again.”

“it's called Las Palmas now”

“We always love the food from Cracker Barrel. This last visit was unfortunately not very good. We had to continuously ask for syrup for the pancakes and then when they brought them, they brought the wrong kind as we needed sugar-free by the time they did get it to us pancakes were a little bit better than lukewarm. The eggs were not cooked the way we had asked. The service was very slow and although all this sounds bad, we will of course be going back because most of the time it’s good service and good food. We were at the Cracker Barrel in Merrillville, Indiana.”

“The food was delicious and fresh. Service was great and fast. Will definitely go back!”

“Typical breakfast dinner. Place is clean. Service is good. Food is average - not bad, just not spectacular or anything out of the ordinary (some breakfast places go over and beyond with presentation, portions and seasoning). We have been coming here for years and the place is very consistent. Always good and fast service. Food is always exactly what you ordered and expected. Coffee could be a bit stronger...”

“Great Service and food that is satisfying as well!”

“Great subs. Not too cheap but totally worth it. My mom was brought here as a kid and it's stayed a family favorite for over 50 years now.”

“Delicious. I had my mom's favorite ice cream cone, black walnut and coffee. My brother had ice cream , coffee and donuts. After all, it's National Donut Day.”

“It's impressive! This store was absolutely the best! Coffee and food are tasty and satisfying. Besides, the atmosphere was tidy, cozy and smelly. Even the server who delivered my order at that time was really polite and sweet.”

“what a great place! the best mangonada I have ever had! you have to try it!”

“Shoutout to Bernina and Ana for helping me out on Tuesday. You are both very sweet and kind and I was happy to have you guys helping me out. Also my sandwich was great 😁”

“We have been coming to this White Castle for years. It has always been a wonderful experience! From the dining area, staff, washrooms. Thanks See you next trip by Dan and Kim Holland Michigan”

“Great customer service and good was fresh, hot and delicious!!”

“This is our favorite restaurant! We go almost every weekend. The food is delicious and a great value! You get a lot for your money. We were SO sad to hear that Chuy doesn’t work here anymore! 🥲 He is such a hard worker and has an excellent personality. It won’t be the same without him!”

“Drive through Dubai strawberries after work was a nice treat. The lady on the speaker was very kind and in the window was also very pleasant and compliment my gear shift. The staff alone is reason enough to come back. Anyone that can make you smile is worth going to see.”

“I’ve been here twice now! The food is magnificent! The Senior Menu is awesome and the staff efficient and friendly!
10.00 senior menu for a 3 course meal! Outstanding! Do go if you haven’t yet! You won’t be disappointed.”

“I've never been to a Subway before so I was a little nervous about ordering. I entered the building and was greeted by a young man named Brayden. I think he could tell I was a little nervous about ordering so he went through the entire menu with me, ranking each sub from his favorite to least favorite. Then he told me all of the different variations they can do...I was astounded 😳! I was ordering for my 3 kids and wasn't sure what subs to order them. Brayden asked me about each kid and then suggested which subs they'd like based on their personalities. Well....he was right!!!! My kids LOVED what he picked out for them. While I was getting ready to pay he asked if I wanted chips and a drink. I said I wasn't sure so he suggested which chips and drinks would pair well with each sandwich!!! He was right again! To say I was impressed would be an understatement.”

“Recently had the New Club Original Chicken Sandwich
$7.19
The New Club Original Chicken Sandwich features a lightly breaded all-white meat chicken patty, topped with melty Swiss cheese, crispy bacon, double mayo, crisp lettuce and juicy tomatoes on a sesame seed bun. Best Chicken Club sandwich was exquisitely favorable to my liking. Unfortunately I don't have pictures, but I will definitely order again.”

“Great food. Chili cheese beef is my favorite.”

“Pizza is good, but it's really a go to place for subs. Super Subs took it to another level. Huge subs. Don't be fooled by the price. You'll get two meals out of it. Super All Meat, BBQ beef, meatball ( my favorites ) plus many more. Support your local business.”

“Fish nibblers! Chicken rings! Slidersssssss! BURP! You're welcome.”
