My cheeseburger wasn't done, told the waitress, she said they'd recook, we didn't have time to wait
disappointed
still paid for both meals
We’ve loved this place for nearly a decade. The changes they have made are AWFUL. We won’t be back, and that’s terribly disappointing. We bring every out of towner here because it WAS the best breakfast. Good luck…..but I won’t surprised if y’all lose most of your business, if not all of it.
New owner changed the breakfast potatoes to hash browns or little deep fried potato cubes. No more American fries. They have had American fries for at least the last 30 years that I can remember. The wait staff are friendly and wonderful but if you don’t have business they won’t stay either. Looking around this morning and there was hardly anyone there. It was always so busy and people were waiting to get in. Very sad.

Based on reviews, Busy Corner Restaurant in Pekin offers excellent food quality and great breakfast food. The chicken fried steak breakfast comes with big portions, homemade gravy, crispy hash browns, and deliciously scrambled eggs. The pancakes will absolutely blow your mind, and the breakfast haystack with coffee is absolutely dynamite. The coffee tastes great. The service is excellent, with super friendly, attentive, and wonderful staff. The take out service is amazing and the table service is phenomenal. The restaurant is nothing to look at, with faded pictures of John Wayne and standard 4-person square tables. It is not in the best neighborhood. When full, it is loud. However, for great breakfast food and friendly service, this is the place. You get what you pay for. It beats all other options in Pekin for breakfast.
