50 Best American Restaurants near Creve Coeur

“We eat here a couple times a month at least, be it for their huge breakfast menu or their impressive selection of lunch and dinner items. They work hard for their customers and if you’re looking for a local mom & pop type diner, this is the place.“

“I had always wanted to try this. Brought my family in tonight from an hour and half away to try and I have no desire to come back. The service was so so bad. We saw her when she took our drink order, when she brought the drinks out, when she took our order, and when she delivered our order 75 minutes after ordering. The wait time for the service in the kitchen was extreme. The restaurant was not busy at all. Not once was a drink refilled without one of my family members going up to the bar to get it refilled. It was very apparent the waitress did not care about the service to our table and it was very disappointing. Employees in the restaurant were not welcoming nor friendly. Food was very mediocre, nothing impressive. Shake was okay. I do not recommend kuchie's on the water at all!“

“Good service. Friendly. Pretty good menu with possibly daily specials. Tasty food and ample portions.A little difficult to spot the entrances in the dark, but there's one in the middle of each long side. Nothing fancy inside and the floor is painted concrete, so it's a bit cool in cold weather, but it should be nice in the summer. Screened in outside dining for warmer weather, too.Worth a visit.“

“Just had breakfast there , it was great!“

“Food and service are always excellent, hands down best fine dining in Peoria. Inspired menus, extensive bar, welcoming atmosphere and dim lighting make it the perfect date night landing. Get the Brussels sprouts.“

“Our first time in and it was great!! I was in a breakfast mood so I got the lumberjack breakfast : cinnamon roll French toast, 2 eggs over medium, hash browns, sausage and bacon! we also tried the biscuits and gravy which were great and the biscuits were really fluffy! He got the bacon cheeseburger with fries and we also had a chicken quesadilla for an appetizer! Generous portions, food came out promptly and everyone was really nice! We can't wait to go back!“

“We were told about this place by a nurse in the Peoria hospital. The food and service was amazing.“

“food was very good. Our waitress was excellent and she was very busy. Our group of 12 enjoyed our lunch“

“I ate there for the first time last night. The waitress was great. I ordered a turkey ponyshoe but received a hamburger instead. I didn’t mention it because I like hamburger too. It was delicious! The sweet tea hit the spot; the waitress said they brew it fresh daily. They desperately need new chairs, but overall, it was a great experience. I look forward to going back.“

“Great service, roasted Brussel sprouts, chicken salad and beet salad were delicious.“

“Food is really good but they are very short staffed and the day we were there they couldn't handle the crowd without becoming rude. Waited 45 minutes for someone to take our order and when we asked if we could get someone to take it the service quality tanked even more. No one to take people's money, so people had to stand in line to get their checks. They do not combine their tips, keep that in mind.“

“Best tenderloin and fries I have ever had! Very fast and friendly service.“

“I went for lunch today and had the catfish, dinner salad, and Cole slaw. It was an actual channel catfish, cooked with the most perfect crust that was not at all grease on it, the salad had the freshest salad greens, slices if cucumber, and tomatoes, with delicious croutons. The cole slaw is made there, is creamy, and I fell in love with all of it. The owner is a perfectionist and the food is too quality! I have not found anyone else in Peoria that serves this quality of food. I will be there at least once a week! Highly recommended!!!!!!!!!!“

“Not only is their food amazing and fast. The staff is amazing. We went today (me my husband and youngest son) after my son had a procedure to get tubes in. They where super genuine about how he was doing. The gentleman who works there (I didn’t catch his name) was such a sweetheart. He came up to talk to us and ask about my son. He also gave him a stuffie. Which made my son smile for the first time after his procedure. THANK YOU FOR THAT! The little gesture was greatly appreciated!“

“Awesome tenderloin! Great staff. And the best malts and shakes in town. We eat here at least once a month!“

“I am 62 had never been inside a Culver's. Visited on November, 7th 2024. The menu option was wonderful, the service fast. Employees were very professional. The facility was spotless, even though there was a lunch crowd. The food was freshly made and to my surprise, hot. It wasn't lukewarm nor just microwaved. I don't usually do fast food, but will visit Culver's before the other fast food options. Pleasantly surprised!!“

“As always, the food here is great. But the employees make everything even better. I can’t tell you how many of them go out of their way to make going to Culver’s a good experience. I highly recommend going to this Culver’s. It’s evident the workers really care.“

“Large portions of great food for a very reasonable price. Friendly waitstaff. What more could you want!“

“We frequent this restaurant. The food is always very good. The service is always very good. The staff seem to be very loud and conduct themselves in an unprofessional manner. Most of the time we go there we dine in. We can barely hear our conversation at our table because the staff is carrying on in a loud party like manner.“

Parking: Besides street parking there is a very large parking lot across the street.“

“We stopped in on route from Derby to Chard, having found you quite by accident on Google maps. What a wonderful surprise! A gorgeous little boho paradise with great food (the vegan tagine and broccoli and Stilton soup were delicious), and a warm and friendly welcome from the owner and from Xena the dog. It’s a long way from home, but hopefully we’ll be back!“

“Strong food ranging from traditional bar food to some more unique/healthier options (like the Irish Stew). The true distinictive of Kenny's though is the long list of bands they show off.“

“mushroom Swiss is delicious“

“Definitely will have to visit again, so so good!“

“Our first time! The Brats are good. Loved the haus slaw but they only filled the container half way up which was disappointing. Was hoping for German potato salad too. Overall what we got was good but not enough food for $30.“

“Staff makes you feel like family when you walk through the door. There isn’t a bad thing I can say about this place.“

“Food was excellent, service was excellent. Everyone was very friendly and kind to my kids. They even gave them pizza dough to play with while we finished eating! Definitely recommend“

“Have you been looking for a great burger and fries? Look no further. Best I’ve ever had!“

“Best breakfast shoe I’ve ever had ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“A wonderful night. The waiter misheard my order and corrected it straight away, which I was really grateful for. But then he brought the most decadent turtle cheesecake to make it up to us, and the taste alone was so worth the wait. I really recommend the lamb, it melts in your mouth, and I think tastes the way a good steak should. I really thank the staff for showing up for us at every point, as we were positive we made a reservation for the dining room but ended up at the bar upstairs. They found a way and quickly sorted us a table when it was obvious that it was difficult to do so. It was refreshing to be treated so kindly by everyone involved. Needless to say, we'll be back.“

“Love Cracker Barrel great food and service“

“Was very disappointed this time we waited a half an hour to get waited on then it took over an hour for a hamburger and fries and two orders of bacon wrapped poppers and another sandwich. I ordered my second drink and an hour later I finally got it. The couple that we were with come here all the time and they were very upset said they would never come back on a weekend. We have been here before and the food was great in the service was great this time not so much. Also our food all came out cold didn't say anything to the waitress because we are afraid to be another hour before we got our lunch.“

“While traveling in central Illinois, we stayed in Groveland. Our Airbnb was just down the street from Woody’s Family Restaurant. We bought breakfast two times for our whole family. They were quick, friendly, and tasted great.“
