Yess!! The valvular tissue present is Pyloric sphincter

The Pyloric Sphincter is a band of smooth muscle at the base of the stomach forming the junction between the stomach pylorus (the lower part of the stomach) and the duodenum.

Food which enters the stomach is mixed with gastric acid to form a tick acidic liquid called chyme, during which time the pyloric sphincter is closed.
