The Industrial Revolution Eatery and Grille is next to Valparaiso University.
[Samantha, 08/28/2021]This restaurant is filled with artwork of the industrial revolution. A working G scale railroad runs every 20 minutes. The outside is a work of art, from the ironworkers eating lunch on that beam as they build that iconic skyscraper, to all the others scenes and plaques dedicated to that era. The door handle torches were actually used to construct this art.
[Joe Nowak, 02/24/2018]The restaurant features the sculptures of Sergio Furnari, whose rooftop ironworkers-eating-lunch can also be seen elsewhere.
