    Small, old school, Diner feel. Service was quick and friendly, prices were reasonable and the food was piping hot with decent portion sizes.

    Love those counter stools in green!

    If you can get past the uninviting entrance and smudged windows on the door, you will discover a great little restaurant that well deserves their four (4) star review. My waitress was lovely and very accommodating. I don't remember if she had tattoos or not and I couldn't care less. She was Puerto Rican from Humboldt Park in Chicago as I'm familiar with the area too. We hit it off well, I was quite happy with my waitress. Harvey's is a long established business that goes back to the days when Hohman Ave on Hammond's Southside was a booming place. I hope little independent businesses like Harvey's helps rekindle and revitalize Downtown Hammond. Ahh the food! It was great! Ample portions, real ham off the bone, coffee refills and the privilege of dining in a vintage restaurant. Working class, multi-ethnic patrons, walk in and feel right at home. This is not a chain restaurant. Very pleased! Keep up the good work! Success! I'll be back! P.S. Clean up that entrance and you've earned a fifth star!

    Very friendly. Lives by rule I will meet you where you are. Miss Mary is a kink soul in the restaurant buisness which in its self is very difficult. Food portions to price are right on! Great place to get togo as well. A real modern day Mom and Pop restaurant.

    Food and service was incredible! I ordered a hot coffee and hash browns to go along with a bacon burger and I can say it was incredible. The location of the restaurant may be offputting, since it appears to be in a bad neighborhood, and the location seems old and run down, but I can assure you the outside does not affect the food at all. A little teenage kid (I think he was the owners son) served me and he was very polite and had great manners. Constantly checking up on me to make sure everything was okay. Food was really good and service was top tier. Must come again location.

    Co worker breakfast.

    When you are in need of an awesome breakfast and a relaxing atmosphere, this is the place for you. Don't be afraid by the vintage ascetic the food is extremely good and will hit the spot. While waiting for your food to come up you will be able to take in the charm by playing the photo trivia, just ask your friendly server for the Q&A sheet. The tunes are supplied by a vintage stereo that is cranking out bangers at all times. Time will cease to exist while dining here.

    Ham and cheese club w/ fries. Yummy!

The menu covers breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner, with what you want when you want, freshly prepared. I ordered a Mexican omelette with jalapeños on the side, and it was bursting with flavor. The biscuits and gravy were fluffy and soft. The sauce was creamy and delicious, with chunks of sausage. It's not my favorite type of sausage gravy, but it was perfect. The cottage cheese was cottage cheese.

Today she decided there was no way they would be able to mess up her order so we ordered from here again. And of course it was messed up. She gave up meat for lent and ordered fettuccine Alfredo and they added chicken even tho she specifically said no chicken. Then my omelette the cheese wasn't fully mixed into the eggs so 3/4 of the eggs had no cheese and then I had a clump of cheese at the end. And the worst was the salad it had a hair in it and bad cucumbers. I get it mistakes happen and stuff so we decided to ask for refunds for the salad and Alfredo since those were inedible and they said they can give us new food or store credit. Honestly I don't ever want to eat there again with that poor customer service to not issue a refund when they made the mistakes. That's just bad management.

Now if you're from the south side like me, you know if you need your OG fix, you come to THIS Olive Garden and NOT the one in Ford City (it's still not good, had it recently, 0/10 do not recommend). When you get there and if you're like me, you order that new drink they have (with an extra shot if you're not driving). Hopefully your friend gets the salad, so you can get the chicken gnocchi soup, get extra cheese on these items, like so much cheese to can't really see the top and the server has tendinitis from turning the cheese grater. You get 2 orders of breadsticks to go with this starter. THEN, if you're like me, you order the Tour of Italy. I do substitutions, I sub the lasagna for spaghetti with meatballs, I add scallops to the fettuccine alfredo, and no cheese on the chicken parm (I don't like mozzarella cheese and I don't wanna talk about it), you also get the same unholy amount of cheese on this dish as well. Then after all of this, maybe a dessert (I don't know because I don't know how much you eat), but you DO get the $6 entree and freeze it, so you can run it back again when you're too lazy to drive back for more. Is it authentic Italian food, no DUH, but is it good! Yes! As I'm writing this review, I'm plotting my return trip to experience this same meal again. Don't be so pretentious and enjoy one of your fave food spots as a kid every once in a while, it's still good and still has those comfy vibes!

I even did the alkaline detox plan for several weeks...it worked well. I had more energy and lost weight while on plan and even afterwards. For starters, the sea moss latte is perfect for cold weather. It is made from walnut milk, sea moss, burdock, dandelion and and tastes great. The smoothies and juices are tasty with a purpose. Below are my two favorites. The Mucous Buster is made of pineapple, grapefruit, orange, turmeric and cayenne. The Powra is made from kale, green apple, cucumber, ginger and lime. My favorite salad is the taco salad which has perfectly seasoned walnut meat as it's protein. The vegetables include lettuce, bell pepper, tomato, mango salsa, avocado and olives. The Yogi bowl is my second favorite, which is made of portobello mushrooms, quinoa and kale. There is a wonderful dressing to top it off. You can also ask that it be heated...OMG!!! Delicious! Love that the food is alkaline and that they add supplements to smoothies and latte that I wouldn't have otherwise thought of.
