Great food, amazing service. 11/10 come here all the time Kevin the owner is a such a great guy!

tl;dr - It's been months since I had Val's and I'm still thinking about it lol I came through Chesterton back in March to visit my boyfriend's hometown. On one of the first nights we were there, he took me to Vals to get a drink and some food. I had pasta in a bread bowl. It was a great meal, and honestly a highlight of the couple days we were there. We went back to hang out with some of his friends and had more good food. I don't remember everything we ate, but we had a variety of pizza and wings that were all delicious. Fast forward to last night... It's been about 7 months since I've been to Indiana and I just got home after pau hana with friends. We had drinks and a pizza at a pub downtown, and by the time I got home, I could not stop thinking about eating at Val's. Through my delirious 1am drunk stupor, all I could think about was the chicken broccoli spagoni I had all those months ago. The bread was perfect, the chicken was tender, the balance of acidity with the lemon... I literally could not sleep last night because I was thinking about eating that pasta. I woke up and was still thinking about it. So I figured I should probably write a review. And this isn't the first time I've had this craving, but it is the first time I've felt it so strongly. Something about the vibe of the place, the quality of food, the people- it makes me want to come back to Chesterton. I think the only thing stopping me is my schedule and the fact it would take ~13 hours of airplane travel to come back. Go eat at Val's! Great place. If I can figure out how to use Yelp I'll add a picture.

We love Val's. Great food, great service. Atmosphere is great for the whole family. Friendly staff.

The Bomb was the bomb. Order it, you won't regret it! Really enjoyed our carry out order- everything was accurate and the cashier was very friendly!

If you ever have the opportunity, there's a little family owned spot on the west side of downtown Chesterton called Val's pizza & grinders. They have this thing called a "bomb" that is basically like a gourmet Italian beef hot pocked brushed in garlic butter. The dough is the perfect amount of salty, chewy, crispy and the beef is 10/10. You should come here. It's truly a life changing experience. Probably in my top 5 all time favorite things I've ever eaten

Val's is hands down the best pizza in Chesterton. If anyone tells you otherwise, they are lying. I debated whether to post this because I really don't want to have crazy long wait times for pizza. Also, the Bomb sandwich is to die for.

Val's is great. The pizzas are really good and there are some unique flavors. Chicken and broccoli is my favorite. The mozzarella sticks are really good, and my kids love the ham and cheese stuffed sandwich. The service is always friendly but sometimes kind of hit or Miss. sometimes we have a wait person who is on it and quick and friendly and never lets a cup get empty. Other times we have multiple people taking care of us because our original person is distracted or busy elsewhere. But the food is great!

Carried out and the service was fast and friendly. I got a half stuffed sandwich with Italian beef and hot peppers. It was soooooo good. Husband got a calzone and said it was delicious. Kids meals are cheap and such a generous serving.

First of all, they serve Guinness on tap. The Guinness Couple approve. We sat at the bar for our first experience here. Old movies on the TV as we drank. We ordered a pizza, cheese sticks, and mushrooms. Everything was really good. The pizza will definitely bring us back. So good. The waitress we had was friendly, attentive, and had a good sense of humor. We are looking forward to a return visit here.
