I had a calzone. My wife had the chicken wings and "small" Greek side salad. My calzone was hot and delicious (and so was the side of marinara)! The naked, baked wings were hot and delicious. The Greek salad was enough for two! Atmosphere was fun and upbeat. Our server was friendly, helpful and attentive. We'll be back! read more

Ordered on the phone. It was ready when promised. Had a dirty bird and a muffaletta. As usual it was DELICIOUS!!! Both are enough for 2 meals. read more

Orders a large salad and pizza. Was absolutely delicious we had also ordered 3 donuts to try and I would say way too much food but great price! Highly recommend trying this place it's so good read more

I never considered eating at the bar before. I will do it again! Friendly staff, quick seating and food. The wait for a table in the restaurant was really long. Very comfortable in the bar. We sat in comfortable chairs, with no cold air-conditioning blowing on us, nor too close to the screaming kid in the dining area, and watched the Cubs win. Quickly yummy doughnuts, vegan with olive oil and Italian seasoning. Fresh Prince was my pizza choice (vegan) and my hubby had a MUFFALETTA Pepperoni + Salami + Ham + Provolone + Mozzarella + Mayo + Olive Tapenade on a Pizza Dough Bun. Perfect for the night! A shout out to Vicky Marie who we ran into there from Malibu! read more

I have been wanting to try this place. I currently cant have dairy because of my daughter having an intolerance so we decided to eat here since they have vegan / dairy free options. The pricing isnt terrible for what you get. If you've never had fake cheese you can very clearly taste the difference. With this pizza it was not that noticeable. All the toppings blended well together. I would definitely try other vegan versions that they have next time I am looking to eat pizza. My husband got the buffalo chicken pizza & loved it. Their pizza most definitely tastes good & it smells amazing too. The inside is very spacious & the lighting is nice in there. They also have multiple people working to make sure everyone is well taken care of. I would recommend this place for sit down & for take out. Their menu is nice & diverse and they get things done in a timely manner. Only issue I really see if that the parking lot can get packed. But that can happen anywhere. read more

I love the tomato bar. They have just about any combination of pizza that you can think of. The pizza is always good. We come hete here every year. It's part of our tradition to stop here after we by a Christmas tree at Guse Farms in Wannatah. We stop every year with the kids snd grandkids. Every tomato bar we have eaten at didn't disappoint. Prices are a little steep but, that's o.k. The pizza is worth it. Service is always great too. Tip them good. They work hard. If you have never been here? Uou got to check this out. read more

The name surely drew curiosity, so I almost had to try this place. I was hoping for something tasty with a unique flavor. My significant other and I walked inside and we were seated fairly fast. From the Beverages section, I went with a Diet Coke for 2.95. From the Oven-Baked Sandwiches section, we decided to get the Dirty Bird to share. It was 13.95 and had Chicken, cheddar, provolone, mushrooms, banana peppers, onion, green peppers, herb mayo, lettuce, tomato on pita bread. From the Specialty Craft Pies section, we went with a 10 Inch Good Ole' Boy to share. It was 15.95 and had Red sauce base, mozzarella, provolone, pepperoni, mushrooms, red onion, pineapple, jalapeño peppers. The Diet Coke was decent and so was the free refill. I was surprised at how large the Dirty Bird was at first sight. It was excellent. All of the flavors mashed together perfectly. The Good Ole' Boy was packed with flavor. I enjoyed the texture of the crust. This item was also excellent. The service was alright. I think an improvement should be made in that area. Overall, I really enjoyed this place. I would like to come back and explore the menu more. Date of visit: 12/22/24 read more

Food was good. Service was good. I was disappointed in how loud it was; it kind of ruined the whole meal for me.

Recommended by a local we decided to try this place. Very good service and food. The menu is quite unique and offers only salads, sandwiches, calzones and pizza pies. We tried the calzones and were very good but are so large 2 people can split one! The ambiance is a bar like atmosphere and has a full service bar. The calzones are a very heavy meal. Kids menu only offers cheese bread and you can add toppings for extra cost. read more

We stopped on a road trip and wanted a place we haven't tried before. The place smelled great and had a new feel to it. The decorations were zany and cute. The service was fantastic and really fast. Honestly a lot about the location was just great. We ordered the cheese bread appetizer. It was really just herbs and cheese melted on a small loaf of bread. It tasted good, don't get me wrong, it was just underwhelming. The red sauce that came with it was good, a little sweet for my taste. For entrees we had the Portobello and the Cheesesteak Oven baked sandwiches. We didn't want anything too heavy before continuing our long drive. The sandwiches come out on a small tray as a pair packed into pita bread for each order. The portions were decent sized, but the sandwiches do not come with any sides. I actually don't recall seeing any sides on the menu, but I may have missed them. The pita was soft and rather tasty. The cheesesteak was decent, but maybe I have been spoiled by some amazing cheesesteak in the past because I was not really wowed by it. The portobello was actually the better of the two sandwiches. The flavoring was more robust and it made you want another bite. All in, it's a good place to stop for a quick bite. There are so many options on the menu that I am sure if I had more time I would have found something I loved there. Let me know what you loved there if you stop in. read more

I just LOVE the food and the service at this place!! It's always very busy here, which means I'm not the only one who knows how great it is! The atmosphere is always fun and boisterous - great for groups. The servers have always been friendly and fun, too, which is great! Excellent experience overall! Oh, and the pizza is even better on day two (if you can make yourself wait that long!) read more

I have started my pizza tour of Valparaiso, a town with so many mom and pop pizza places to try. A friend of mine recommended Tomato Bar, which also has 2 other locations in northwest Indiana. I have had 2 types of pizza from the Tomato Bar, Good Ole Boy and Heavy Soul. The Good Ole Boy comes with red sauce, pepperoni, jalapenos, and pineapple. Heavy Soul is the BBQ pizza with chicken, bacon, and onions. Both pizzas had merit but the Heavy Soul is what I am going to rave about. The BBQ sauce base is thick, sweet, and a surprisingly superb BBQ sauce that I would expect from a BBQ joint. I have had a few BBQ pizzas over the years that use a thin BBQ sauce and that doesn't work on pizza. The waitress let me sample some of the sauce bases. Beside the BBQ and red sauce, I sampled the Spicy Alfredo and the Red-Buffalo mix. I hated the Spicy Alfredo. I wish I could be more descriptive about it but I just simply hated it. The Red-Buffalo mix wasn't much different from the red sauce in my opinion. Do not use the drive-thru. You will have several employees walk by and not notice you at all. It is better to go in and pick up for carryout. read more

I had the BLTA bacon lettuce tomato avocado it was so good.. the rest of the food was pretty darn good. The customer service was pretty nice. The atmosphere was pretty beautiful.. oh and we really loved the 1919 root beer. Images to follow at a later date read more

Got a Bianco pizza to go and loved it! They didn't allow any replacements on the pizza, just add ons. So we got mushrooms removed & another type of cheese added on. Overall awesome flavor & so fresh. I didn't go inside the restaurant but the ambience and vibe looked awesome from the outside. Would definitely go here once I'm in the area again! read more

I went here after visiting the Indiana Dunes State Park and doing the 3 Dune Challenge. The pizza was absolutely delicious and the service was great. Everyone we interacted with while there was friendly and helpful. I'd definitely recommend this place if you're in the area. They had lot of great pizza options but we built our own, because we always like to try a more traditional pizza to judge a place first, and I'm glad we did! The crust, sauce, and pepperoni were all perfect! I was really hungry when we sat down so I ordered a Greek salad with jerk chicken. It was very tasty but the sauce on the chicken didn't taste like jerk to me. We also had the doughnuts and they were great! read more

Always a great experience. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable about the beers. I always have my favorites ("Heavy Soul & The Buff" pizza). Their salads are huge and amazing. Their sandwiches are also good, my fav is the "Dirty Bird." when I go there. Only downside, is it can be a bit loud if you are hard of hearing, but overall, a great place to dine! read more

Philly calzone was basically hollow with a bunch of raw onions. I think I paid $17 n some change for a crispy bread ring. Personally I know I will not be returning. read more

Everything was awesome! 100/10!!!!! Service, food, drinks...EVERYTHING WAS GREAT! It was darker, which we love and just a perfect lunch.

I really like this place! We've had it a couple of times. I like that they have a drive up pickup window, so I don't have to go inside. The staff has all been really friendly. Last time, she opened each person to double check it before handing it to me. I really appreciated that! It's nice when they check that they're giving me the right food! We have had: vegan dough nuts-fine. Not much flavor, but the sauce is great. dough nuts-fine. Not very different then the vegan ones. Don't risk it pizza- fantastic. This is a vegan pizza with no cheese. Build your own vegan pizza: spinach, garlic, vegan cheese- fantastic. Side saddle salad-good basic salad I really like that they have a separate gluten free menu and a separate vegan menu. It's super helpful! read more

The Greek salad was huge but wasn't my favorite and it was to loud inside. I went with a friend which introduced me to her friends and it was hard to talk with the loud atmosphere. read more

The concept of this place is amazing. This is ofcourse an extremely overdue review I just kept putting off. The selection of pizzas to chose from is varied well. I also like how they have a pizza of the month to choose from. It might actually be pizza of the week I forget. I ended up grabbing a beer at the bar while I waited for my pizza. The bartender was very attentive and explained the menu to me since it was my first time. I truly enjoyed the pizza I chose. It had a generous pesto drizzle that made it amazing. If I'm back in the area I will for sure be stopping by!!!! read more

Great pizza. Made fresh. Been back 3 times and each time was better than the last. Highly recommend

Extremely impressed with their extensive vegan selection at their Crown Point location. They have a whole vegan menu with more than 10 options, I enjoy that I can get something different every time. Today I had the vegan sandwich and it blew me away. It even had hummus on it so I could get protein for the day. I've also tried two of the vegan pizzas and was blown away by the taste, care and quality of all three visits. Truly a restaurant that serves all types of people. Also had gluten free options. Staff is also friendly and knowledgeable. Also, they have some nifty craft hot sauces! read more

I love the crispy wings! But the sauce options are kind of blah for them. Hot is a bit spicy but not overly Flavorful, BBQ tastes like they just buy it from the grocery store. If I liked the sauces, I would say these are the best wings ever. We had doughnuts for appetizers and they were also somewhat bland, but the kids loved them. The pizza is ok, some nice flavor combos available. The service was great. read more

Decent enough pizza but enough other annoyances to keep me from seeking this place out again when in the area. Just a quick five minute wait for our family of five on Saturday night at 7. It was a large booth and probably would have been quite comfortable were it not for the significant rips across the seat that had been "repaired" with duct tape. Summer evening so I had shorts on - my legs weren't happy. I stole a peek at the other booths on my way out and there were several with this issue. The pizza was good; I've had better and I've had worse. I thought the dough nuts were bland; had Parmesan shook on rather than "crusted" on. Marinara sauce was missing something - salt maybe? Multiple vegetarian options. Decent beer selection. I was annoyed at the lack of dinnerware provided. The dough nuts were served without plates, and the pizzas were served without plates - tough on those trying to share a pie. I had to ask for an extra plate. My husband said "well, maybe they are trying to be earth conscious and save water" - but they have no issue serving up plastic straws with your water so me thinks that's not it. Final verdict - this place could be much more with a little effort. Grab the pizza to go if you have the option. read more
