Reviews For Gelsosomo's Pizzeria Valparaiso

We took a road trip just to visit Gelsosomo’s Pizza based on a recommendation from a friend and where not disappointed! Their mozzarella sticks were full of flavor and paired well with the homemade marinara sauce. The breadsticks were deep fried, topped with Parmesan cheese and seasoning and full of flavor. Their pizza is a thin crust and tasted great, the sauce was on the sweet side and the cheese had a great smoky flavor.

We ordered both styles: deep Chicago pizza and flatbread and both were delicious. We were also surprised by a Yuengling 2 draft special of the day! The terrace outdoors is pleasant weather permitting.

We had the anti pasta salad and the Popeye. The salad was fresh and delicious. The house dressing was wonderful, with just the right amount of seasoning. The Popeye pizza was truly amazing. The cheese blend was delicious, and the crust was beyond amazing. Our server recommended dipping the pizza in honey, which sounds odd but was an awesome suggestion. The honey added just a little sweet to the already amazing pizza, which was phenomenal. If you're in the area, this place is definitely worth stopping by. We will definitely be making a return trip to try more items from their menu.

We ordered the Spicy Italian Pizza and the Buffalo Chicken Pizza. Both were fantastic!!! The atmosphere of the restaurant seemed very nice and laid back. We will definitely be going back to sit down and enjoy the whole experience.

They catered our event, "The Great Banquet" this weekend. Every one of the 6 varieties were delicious and perfectly cooked. Fresh hot pizza on a sunday afternoon is hard to come by. They nailed it!

Great spot for delicious pizza. Breadsticks and mozzarella sticks and marinara were excellent. The pizza was amazing! Service was top-notch. There's pinball and an arcade game just like an old time pizzeria. The chairs at the tables were very comfy. Love this place!

Gelsosomo's is that hometown, one of a kind pizzeria. You can order a simple basic pizza or add as much as you want from their variety of toppings. The crust is thin. Sauce is medium thickness with a homemade taste. They offer a variety of different foods other than pizza. This place definitely won't disappoint. The atmosphere is a cozy Italian pizzeria.
