Gelsosomo`s Pizza in Chesterton

Waited 2hrs for pizza and a burger after they said it would be 45 min. Pizza arrived cold and was hard on top. Burger was made out of mystery meat (don't think it came from a cow). Called and they did nothing but apologize. Turned out to be a $45 meal for my dog. Never Again!

This had been one of my favorite pizza places for years! I love that they have an arcade and karaoke on Saturday nights. They even have gluten free pizza!

New chef, new sauce, not good. We got a large and with 4 of us, we did not finish half the pizza. Way to much sauce, not enough onions and WAY, WAY to heavy on the herbs in the sauce or cheese.

Great pizza. A little higher priced but you get what you pay for.

Good food, decent price. Good service

Food is delicious. But I would sit in the pub next time. Kids running and screaming. Hard to enjoy the meal and family

Their pizzas and other foods are great but their bread sticks are the best around.

Food & Service was GREAT !

AMAZING PIZZA Their pizza is some of the best we’ve had we always stop by when were driving past as its easy to access from i94 and easy to get back on. They are open for dine in! We get there greek salad with bacon jalapeños and pepperoni pizza. Staff are friendly, they didn’t make any fuss even when we poured an entire cup if water all over the table (whoops😅). Definitely recommend this place!

We have always just used carry out. Decided to have dinner inside and it was awesome. Bar was great, drinks were as we like them (martinis). We all ordered different items and everything was delicious. Waitress was awesome too. Highly recommend giving them a try inside. We will be back.

Between here and the valparaiso location ... by far the best pizza overall food and service ive had in a long time ... they got it down how to satisfy a costumer ...me and my family thanks you

It's an old school family pizza restaurant. Offers a pizza buffet for lunch. There are four or five different pizzas, breadsticks plus a garden salad to choose from. Each pizza sort of blended in with the next one in flavor but they were all good. On a street covered with fast food regulars, this place is recommended.

Got delivery to our hotel room. Staff was friendly, our order was right on time. Price was a little high but not too bad. The pizza was good, however the Popeye stuffed pizza was very disappointing. It was ruined by being filled with Velveeta cheese. A couple of bites that did not have the processed cheese like product were really good but the majority of it was hard to eat. Would recommend this place just not the Popeye pizza.

Excellent service, food quality superior, definitely a great place to visit!

Service was fantastic and the food was excellent. Highly recommended this place for pizza and pasta.

Oh my Goodness. This kind of Heavenly pizza can't even be found in Italy itself! D E L I C I O U S ! great service and very fair price for the quality. The servings are huge! If you visit the area, eating here is a MUST!

Pizza and atmosphere are great but these guys are CRAZY expensive for their pizza. We got a large carryout order the other day and had sticker shock. Other Gels in the region don't break your wallet like Chesterton and Valparaiso do.

Some of the best pizza I've had since Chicago!

I wasn't sure if anyone worked there when we walked in. Food wasn't bad the guy that was there coughing up phlegm was beyond gross. We couldn't even eat our food it was so gross. Our awful waitress was snotty. And brought our bill right after our food. we will not be going back

Slow service, but good food

Excellent crispy crust!

Great stuffed pizza, the waitress was very nice and gave good service.

I was in the area and wanted a quick pizza. Gelsosomo’s was open later than the other pizza spots in the area. The pizza’s I ordered were good but the crust was great very crunchy for my liking. I was able to place my order online very easily. The girl are the counter was very nice and got brought out my order quickly. The prices were very reasonable and I would return if I am in the area.

Not as good as I expected! Ordered Pretzel Stix with Cheese priorto the pizza for kids. This turned out to be Totally Cold!The waitress took this off the bill. The pizza came, it was niceand hot but didn't taste very good!The waitress was very friendly and attentive. She did everythingpossible to make our time pleasant.But when I went up to the cashier to pay the bill, all I couldsee was young employees. I was hoping this was a Italian familyowned restaurant, not a Teen managed and cooked mess!

Great food, full bar. Always has game day and daily specials with a great atmosphere.

Amazing! Family of 8 looking to eat after a day at the beach and this pizzeria didn't disappoint. We live 2 hours away and we will be back! Thank you!!!

So much better than the one in Michigan City!

4.8 to be truthful. So damn good. Sorry I didn't take pictures. Eat the food so fast. Trust me. Go .

Long story short. They couldn't give me a total. I asked for extra sauce, they gave me pasta with all the sauce on the side. Took 10 minutes to acknowledge us waiting at the door. Had our name order the wrong name. Total mess. It had been 4 years since my last visit. My favorite part was the quarter machines and the bread.

Love their deep dish pizza 😍

Wonderful food, and owners Brian and June Wuerthel are most gracious hosts. Service was great, by far the best mostaccioli, Italian food and pizza in Laporte County. We tell everyone we know about the quality of food ,we eat thers at least 2 to 3 times a week!!!

Food was absolutely amazing.Our server, meh. Found it disturbing that she was wearing sandals and no socks...in all my years of of working food service that has ALWAYS been a huge no-no.

I live 5 hours away, but I drive up to Chicago once every quarter and I always drive 45 minutes out of my way to order 2 large BBQ Chicken Pizzas! One to eat there and 1 to take with me to Chicago so I can eat it the next day! Reheated in the oven makes it taste fresh as day 1! I don't know how they do it! If YOU Love Pizza YOU owe it to yourself to TRY the BBQ Chicken Pizza! If I lived in Chesterton I'd eat here every day!!

Not only is the pizza delicious - crispy crust, slightly sweet sauce (just the way I like it) - it reminds me of a great Chicago pizza, but the service is outstanding! I accidentally called the wrong Gelsosomo’s and I still walked out with 2 large pizzas 10 minutes later. Very accommodating and friendly! Great job!

I invited my family to go there for Christmas eve lunch. Everyone was very impressed with pizza and wings. Ashley took good care of our party.

I celebrated my PhD today in this great place. I am glad to say that we enjoyed a marvelous evening and the place was evidently the reason for this fruitful gathering. The waiters collaborated in a very nice way, the meals were very good and my buddies were extremely cheerful. We shall definitely return for more events. Thank you very much.

Our group loved the Pizza! Staff very friendly and efficient and attentative. Highly recommend!

Great lunch pizza buffet during the week, staff is friendly and on top of your every need. One of my weekly lunch spots.

Gelsosomo's is a very good pizza. In my opinion it's quite similar to Aurelio's in the sauce Department. However what sets this one apart is a generous portion of cheese as well as other ingredients. The quality of cheese they use on their Pizza is better than Aurelio's in my opinion. We ate in the restaurant and within 20-25 minutes we had our order, fresh and hot. We also had a salad... nothing outstanding but decent nonetheless. The one thing about Gelsosomo's is that the taste varies restaurant to restaurant. This location in Chesterton does a great job hence 4 stars.

Awesomely delicious pizza in a clean, comfortable family environment. The waitstaff is very friendly and efficient.

The pizza was very greasy, but it tasted ok to make up for it.

Food was good and server was friendly but overly extended. The buffet is a joke. We arrived at 11:50, and the only food available on the buffet was some salad and maybe 10 pieces of cheese pizza. A bit after 12, the server brought out fresh bread sticks, and at 12:15, two pizzas were brought out. There were people in the banquet room who were eating from the buffet and another 20 people in the restaurant. It was another 15 minutes before any more food was brought out! People were literally hanging out at the buffet table waiting for food. This seems to be a pattern for the buffet. You're better off ordering a pizza from the menu. The buffet is not worth the time or money.

Chose it as the place for my birthday dinner with my significant other. Arrived at 5:00, received drinks and gave order at 5:15....received well-done spinach Popeye at 6:25.... Crust was so overdone that it has to be sawed with a knife. To their credit, the pie was not charged but it was very disappointing. I’ve been a customer of all 3 locations in Porter County since the 1990’s....will not return to Chesterton.

Usually go in for the lunch buffet which is pretty good. Couple of pizzas, bread sticks and salad, good food and buffet for price.

Good service, great pizza

We had the Works Pizza. Excellent! Will be going back to try other items. Great staff

Nice place to go to in Chesterton. Their pizzas are generous. Slightly disappointed that they close at 9.

Great staff, large private party rooms and great pizza too.

Awesome pizza as always, friendly staff, great place for a family gathering
