“Jeffrey, Chef Seth, & staff, Thank you for an outstanding Thanksgiving dinner today. Upon arriving at 11:30 for pickup, and being met at the door by Jeffrey, I had a feeling that this was a good decision. We chose the prime rib 🥩 since we are having a traditional turkey 🦃 dinner tomorrow. Everything, including all sides, was delicious 😋 Thank you for committing your Thanksgiving day to serve others.“

“Fast, friendly service and the food was great!“

“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.“

“😋Delicious, fast and friendly service!“

“So kind, such generous portions, always friendly and helpful, I love supporting this small business in Bartonville as often as possible! Ask her for a punch card for even more deals!“

“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!!!!!!!!!!“

“Hey y’all RANCH AND HONEY BBQ CHICKEN WINGS IS SO AMAZING AND THE KOOLAID IS WONDERFUL OMG ILL DEFINITELY BE BACK“

“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!“

“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.“

“We had a great brunch experience! Ryan A was our server. Will come back again!“

“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.“

“Love this Club!!! Great food & View‼️“

“This is the first time I've ever been in this burger brand, so I ask The cashier (Jocelyn) to recommend me something from the menu, and she was so kind to recommend me The spicy chicken sandwich, The place is clean, service is fast.

The place is packed but not as loud as I expected.

All the employees smile at you when they see you.

The food is good, good taste.

THANK YOU JOCELYN.

make her manager 🙏🏻🤣“

“I ordered a Culver’s Custard Sundae with sliced pecans but the young man at the register did not seem to understand me, he seemed to be very out of it. He emitted a foul odor as I spoke to him as well. I remember the Peanut Parlor gave me a large sundae for some pocket change in the good old days. My pecans were also not sliced like I asked.“

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

“Food was very good and the server was awesome!!!! Will definitely be back!!!“

“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!“

“Food was good, my waitress, Mindy, was super sweet, keeping my glass full“

“The Supreme Philly is one of the best around! Their service is wonderful as well! Highly recommend“

“Brasky’s was a great place to enjoy karaoke with friends! The food was delicious and the beers were cold! The Onion rings were my favorite! We had a fabulous night out! The owner visited our table and was outgoing and friendly! Highly recommend!“

“Our first time here this afternoon/evening. We were just looking for a place near the Civic Center before a show. Great food, friendly staff, very nice atmosphere. Our server, Wes, was great as well. 10/10 would visit again when we are in town.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“This was my first visit to Obed and Isaac’s, and I was overwhelmed. The beautiful building and stained glass windows, and the atmosphere, incredible. The food was beyond delicious, and the staff incredible. Very reasonable prices. I’ll be back, and soon.“
