“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.”

“Just had breakfast there , it was great!”

“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 highly recommend Hacienda in Pekin. Their food is top-notch, their service is swift and always friendly, and they have been an anchor for me on my journey to sobriety and improving my mental health. Just today, I stopped in for lunch and was about to leave, and one of the servers, Omar, remembered me and congratulated me on another month sober and for making it through another year. 🥹 Not every restaurant has people working who remember the little details like that. This place is home to me. ❤️”
