Restaurants near Germantown Hills

“I love it here! I can always count on who I'm going to see and they remember my order unless I'm trying something new. The iced lattes are my favorite here. We also love how they have donuts a few times a week.”

“Visited Germantown Grille for the first time today. My husband and I like to take little road trips for lunch on Fridays. Your lunch did not disappoint, the Dixon Cod sandwich was delicious and the haystack oh my. Half is for supper tonight. We will be back, I give you a 10.”

“I would recommend Michael’s to anyone looking for great Italian food. The food is great and the staff is extremely friendly. The restaurant has a great atmosphere.”

“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.”

“Catering experience was AWESOME this evening. Thank you all for the delicious taco bar with great variety and value. Everyone was raving about the generous portions and delicious offering. Appreciate your professional service. Thank you so much we all said we'd order catering from you all for future parties!!!”

“Love trying new spots. Crab Rangoon are amazing and hot and sour soup was tasty. Can't wait to come back snd try other things. This is the spot to eat. See lots of people ordering from here, that is how you know it is good.”

“I was having a conversation with a worker and noticed her using lots of organic ingredients and real Himalayan salt... this sparked my curiosity and I started paying attention to the food she was making ... I decided to buy lunch here after initially just grabbing my first ever coffee at this coffee shop .... to my surprise that dragon berry fruit bowl was absolutely amazing. I have never been to a place that uses clean ingredients like this. This was a great experience. 5 stars!”

“Had my first experience today with a friend for lunch. This was the best lunch I have had in the past 3 years. Wish I lived closer would be a regular at this lovely and friendly restaurant. You are going to be a great success.”

“Rhythm Kitchen has always been a staple in downtown Peoria for a couple of reasons…excellent food and awesome atmosphere. It’s cool that they just keep getting better and better. A group of us went there last night for dinner and it was absolutely outstanding! Service is always so friendly and you simply cannot replicate the Rhythm Kitchen vibe anywhere. The gumbo ya ya is an absolute must have, jerk chicken is crazy good and the meatloaf is classically delish. Even their grilled cheese is fantastic! And if you even think about leaving before dessert, you’re out of your mind. We were trying to be polite and share among the group, but there was a “survival of the fittest” mentality bubbling up at the table and let’s just say we were lucky to leave as friends. Few places leave you with the need to go back the very next day, but I gotta say, I need to go back…like now.”

“Kimmy the bartender was unbelievably awesome talk about service with a smile.. Food was exceptional and timely great addition to downtown Peoria..RECOMMEND VISITING 😀”

“Their coffee offering is exquisite! I'd highly recommend this coffee shop to everyone!”

“Everything about this place was phenomenal. I am not from this area and came here because of the good reviews. They were not kidding!
Fresh squeezed orange juice: check. Fluffy (not gluey) biscuits and gravy: check. I'm going to run out of room here, so just believe me when I say everything was amazing. And if you are a coffee drinker, don't skip it! Thank you to Leah who was attentive and sweet! *And no, this is not a paid ad, I just really liked it here! *”

“had a birthday lunch with about 15 close friends. my sister had ordered creme brulee for everyone for a dessert. very nice”

“First time visit,Over all the food was average. For the price below average. I had the Bluegill with Au gratin potatoes and green beans with Iced-tea. MY review: the Bluegill was deep-fat fried too long which made it dry and crunchy. Their tartar sauce made it edible. Now as for the Au gratin potatoes, very cheap and cheesy. Whomever, makes this need a lesson in really good Au Gratin Potatoes. Their version is frozen shredded breakfast hashbrown potatoes smothered in a velveeta cheese sauce and placed under a broiler. Mine was a little burnt. I could not eat it, I tried 2 bites but that was it. My guest also tried it and was not impressed. The green were the best part of the meal. My guest had the Walleye and it was very good, same with his rice pilaf. His meal also came with a slice of toasted marble-rye bread. His meal was better. Our ice tea's were watered down by too much ice. No one offered refill/toppers. Our split dessert was their Texas sheet cake. It was an overpriced brownie with bad frosting/glaze. Our server was sweet, so she still got her tip. We traveled approximately 30 miles to check this place out. I don't feel it is worth the drive to eat there again.”

“A party of 13 of us met at Smokin’ Notes BBQ this evening. It was clean, the server was EXCELLENT and the food was top notch! I had the pulled pork and rib tips with macaroni and cheese The flavor was amazing and the pulled pork was so tender. We got onion rings as an appetizer and they were the best large sliced onion rings ever and the crispy batter was YUM! I would highly recommend and we will be back. Thanks for a delicious meal!”

“We went for our first time on Wednesday, and had an awesome experience! I don't remember her name, but we were served by your amazing bartender. She went above and beyond, recommending food, drinks, and obviously enjoyed her job. The food was very good, but she made our date night special, and we'll be back to sit at her bar next time 💚”

“Omgersh....that was the best chicken burrito I have ever had! Just be careful of the juice dripping down! You'll want to eat that too. Eat it over the delicious chips and salsa! The salsa has a kick, but it's a kick that adds to the flavor! Definitely recommend. Worth the trip downtown.”

“This place has really good Indian food! Maybe best in Peoria. Its a beautiful building...lacking in parking a little but its very worth it to go there.”

“I’ve gone there now 3 times and I’ve gotten something different each time! I cannot pick a favorite. I love their variety of milks as well. I’m very impressed with their friendliness at the market booth. Love this place and am eager to try the in person location.”

“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!”

“From seeing all of the negative reviews it took me a long time to purchase a cookie. And my review is the ones that I have tried have been delicious and the size is well worth the money. I will be coming back again.”

“Beautiful place, yummy food!! Great owners.”

“Phenomenal service & delicious food!! 10/10!! Laura was speedy & efficient!!”

“This is one of my favorite, clean restaurants in Peoria. great gluten-free options, high quality ingredients and friendly service. breakfast lunch and meal service. It's a gem!”

“Are there tonight , I had the fish and chips but opted for a side salad instead. It was delicious! Plenty to take home. We also had the island shrimp for an appetizer and it was the best ! My husband had the French onion burger and said it was also amazing. Service was great. Only regret was not having room for dessert. We will be back.”

“Their offerings redefines taco expectations. Most places offer nondescript and predictable simple tacos. These are unique blends of flavors and generous portions. It’s a 15 mile trip for our family but one we happily make. It’s a destination until itself. I highly recommend it!”

“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.”

“This was our first time here and we greatly enjoyed it. The ice cream was delicious, and the staff was wonderful— great customer service. We can’t wait to come back!”

“Good food/Thanks, Chefjohn C.E.C., Hunt”

“This is our second year in a row coming here when in town for an event. Best service from their amazing server/bartender Robin. Highly recommend this place!!! Worth the trip.”
