1. Tabor Hill Winery & Restaurant

Finally made it to Tabor Hill, one of the only wineries in the area we hadn't been to yet. The Saturday we stopped, every one of the wineries we stopped at was packed, I don't know what was going on but it was busy. Luckily we were just stopping to pick up wine at a few places but we wanted to do a tasting somewhere new. We had to wait a few minutes to get a spot to taste. Our server was overwhelmed, she was waiting on at least 8 people, so it was slow and a little chaotic, she was stretched too thin. My husband and I both did a full tasting, $10/6 samples, we probably could have split it if we had asked but it was ok, we tried different things. We didn't find anything that stood out to us, they have a ton of completely dry wines, and the semi-sweets we found so-so. They make a Cabernet Franc port that was amazing. Outrageously sweet, but smooth like drinking maple syrup. I'm looking forward to going back for a meal on the patio, it's a beautiful spot.

The workers here are good and personable. The food is typical DQ, so you won't be disappointed if you like what they offer. Our only negative reaction is the small area near the ordering window. You can sit there to eat if you can endure the warm temps. Updating that area would do a lot to improve the experience.
4. Union Coffee House

Perhaps it's the ultra-tall space or the hard surfaces, but this place is just not pleasant to be in. Like Goldilocks etc, the bar stools are too tall, the low seating too exposed, the coffee prices too high. It's easy to feel uneasy here -- too few people, not enough people. Claustrophobic in the summer; way too cold in the winter. I applaud the Union for trying, but the place just feels sort of half-baked.
5. Pizza Transit

Pizza Transit is a family owned pizzeria that has been serving Niles since 1987. We offer delivery, dine-in, and carryout. Our belief is that going out to eat should be a treat and we hope to WOW you with every pizza! Our pizzas are made with our homemade, handtossed dough, slathered with homemade pizza sauce, sprinkled generously with 100% real part skim mozzarella, and topped with your choice of the freshest meats and veggies. Although pizza is our passion we also offer great homemade subs, salads, wings, pasta, and more.

Thought to try a new Niles pizza place after 11 years and we were happy we did. Ordered the special of month, Thanksgiving Pizza, and it was just like eating the entire traditional meal in one bite. Flavorful and fun! The Gyros pizza was also very different but delicious. Crust can be ordered soft or toasty and we opted for more well done. Glad to have that option. Delivery took about two hours, guess they are very popular, especially on Friday nights. Will order again.

Food is excellent in relaxed unpretentious atmosphere with reasonable prices for what you get. We have frequented a few times and enjoy the peaceful country road excursion to Wheatberry Tavern. The garlic mashed potatoes and cedar plank salmon and daily dessert specials are fresh. The house smoked ribs are equally as good which my husband had. I am a southerner so the cornbread that comes out before your meal reminds me of home.

We were staying at the nearby Holiday Inn, visiting Notre Dame, and so gave this restaurant a try. It has beautifully decorated rooms, open pretty late, an excellent choice of foods, well prepared. We were delighted with this surprise gem there in Niles, not far north of I-80 -I-90 Indiana Toll Road (Notre Dame exit). (Not to be confused with "Ho Ping House" which is south of the Toll Road, nearer the campus; we did not go to that one.)

Wonderful waitresses have been there for years, food is standard fare but served hot and fresh. It bustles on weekend mornings and the locals pile in. Best place for breakfast.

It had been a while since we were last here. My wife and I both had burgers. They seemed to be a little smaller than our last trip but just as good. They also have a punch card for return visits. 10 purchases over $5 gets you a free burger and fries.
Service tends to be a bit on the slow side.

We were in the area and checked TripAdvisor for food options since we were not familiar with Niles. This place was at the top of the list so we decided to try it. The first clue that it was not a true restaurant was when we ended up in a theater parking lot. It has good food, but the ambience is terrible. The eating area is in the corner of a theater, which was filled with screaming kids, has old furniture, and odd decorations - if you can call it that.
I had the pulled pork and my husband had the brisket. They were out of their homemade beans - so we had cole slaw which tasted like it came from GFS. The meat was really good tho' and I would go in there again if just to pick up some meat to take home.
