The was hardly any lobster and what was there was chewy. Sadly Red Lobster has a better tasting lobster pie.Definitely not worth it.

It’s also an ideal venue for hosting events! There's a private room upstairs, where we celebrated my 60th birthday along with a surprise wedding. The food was incredible, thanks to Chef Courtney. The staff was wonderful—very attentive and accommodating to all our needs. A special thanks to Timea John for her planning and for being such a great host. With delicious drinks, wonderful food, and the company of great friends and family, the party was a tremendous success, and everyone had an amazing time. I highly recommend Val’s for any private event!

We also had a thin-crust pizza that was cooked to perfection. Courtney and Timea were both fantastic, checking in to make sure everything was to our liking. We will definitely be coming back!
