Casual Dining
Please note: Under the governor's current executive order, restaurants in the Region may open for dine-in service at limited capacity. While some restaurants are doing this, others are opting to continue carryout only or have temporarily closed. View the listings below to see what each restaurant has to offer.
View our Pickup and Delivery page to see which restaurants are providing take-out and delivery.
Let any of the South Shore's casual dining restaurants help you unwind from a fun and busy day. Serving up delicious steaks with a great selection of wine, Pikk's Tavern in Valparaiso will make you feel right at home in the 1940s-themed Chicago steakhouse. As one of the South Shore's best kept secrets, Freddy's Steakhouse in Hammond has been serving delicious meals for over 45 years. For some extra ambiance, dine on Cedar Lake at Lighthouse Restaurant and watch the sun set. South Shore restaurants know how to ensure a relaxing atmosphere to enjoy a delicious meal!
