Restaurants near North Pekin

“Ate there today with friends - service was great and friendly and everything was DELICIOUS!”

“Great staff, Tequila is an amazing waitress. She’s handling all of the things in the hole restaurant. She seems to be training a new waitress, taking a customer call on the phone seating and waiting on people doing a great job of multitasking all of it. She needs to have her own store or definitely a raise lol thank you for this experience tequila.”

“My son and I stopped for dinner, his choice. They were shorthanded but was pleasantly surprised by the service by Robin and burgers were good! Definitely recommend!”

“When u can get it fresh it's pretty good and this location does a good job of that. Employees are nice most of the time. It's not my favorite food by any means but in a pinch this location is worth stopping in.”

“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.”

“Kenzi is one of my favorite places to eat. the owner is so nice and the food is excellent every time!”

“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.”

“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.”

“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! *”

“Friendly staff, delicious food, and very reasonable prices! we had a great birthday dinner for our 12 yr old, and will absolutely be back!”

“very good food we loved it”

“Just had breakfast there , it was great!”

“Crumbl Cookie is an absolute delight! From the moment I walked in, the aroma of freshly baked cookies enveloped me, making it impossible to resist trying a few. The variety of flavors is impressive, with both classic and unique options that change weekly.”

“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.”

“I was having trouble using the app and the Crumbl associate was very accommodating and had the amount of cookies I needed! The associates provided fast, friendly service with a smile!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I am genuinely impressed! This coffee shop is far better than Starbucks or any other place I’ve been to. The quality, flavor, and freshness of the drinks are on a completely different level. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the staff make you feel welcome the moment you walk in. I’ve officially found my new go-to spot for coffee. Highly recommend!”

“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.”

“I had the Ultimate Burrito with chicken and it was fire! Can I say fire? I might be too old to say fire🤷🏻‍♂️ oh well. The Trifecta chips and salsa were also delicious, we loved all three dips😍. Danielle had the Smash burger salad and she said it was awesome! It was also HUGE. Great food and atmosphere, thanks Grudens😃”

“Very personable and I loved the real cheese Pizza! 🍕 One of the best Pizzas I've had in a very long time. Thank you for the great experience!”

“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 💚”

“Mission BBQ is my go to for business event catering, business dining in and for my family. The atmosphere is always friendly and old school customer service, the menu and food is awesome and they are over the top supportive of our Vets, active military and first responders. Travis, Melissa and Cameron take care of everyone that walks in the door. They are always “on mission” and it shows.”

“I mean, it was good. Just expensive. A single scoop was $7. Staff were very polite. Ice cream was good but maybe a bit out there for me. If you’re adventurous. It’ll be right up your alley!”

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

“The food is easily a 10 out of 10. The service is exemplary, friendly and personal. I love eating there. The only con is the price of a Caesar salad, on our last visit my wife and I each got a Caesar salad to start our meal and the two salads alone was $25.00, everything else was inline with the service and atmosphere which is the best.”

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

“Great food. Best service around highly recommend!!!”

“I absolutely adore this place. It had my birthday party there. It was a huge success and I couldn’t be happier with my experience with El Mirador en el Rio. Their drinks are exceptional, and their food is truly made with love ❤️. I absolutely love this place! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
