Fast Food Restaurants near Peoria Heights

“Kindest people! We enjoyed our dinner the other evening and the visit we had with those that work there!“

“Come through to get a order that I ordered through the app And when I pull up to the 1st window the girl working tries to make me pay again for my order. When I said for a second time that I had already paid for it she slammed the window shut and went and hid.I wonder how many people she's done this too that not knowing have paid a second time“

“Friendliness of staff. Also very helpful to a lady with a cane because of a hip replacement. But….your doors are very heavy and awkward for someone in my condition!!!“

“The food is always fresh and so good . The service is exceptional and everything is Spotlessly Clean. My hot food is hot and the cold items are cold. Everyone is polite and in a good mood. They make you feel great!“

“Peoria Illinois. We arrived 5 minutes before closing. They had to special make my shrimp. I felt bad that they had to do that, but they were apologizing that I had to wait! We told them we had traveled 10 hours and they went out of their way to make sure our order was exactly what we wanted. They were working over to make our meal! I hope Long John's appreciates those hard workers! This positive attitude made our day!“

“While I did arrive in the drive-thru with only 8 minutes left before the restaurant closed, they took my order and made it for me with a smile. The food was hot, fresh, and delicious, as it usually is! I appreciate when I come across employees that are in a service industry, and yet they still smile, are friendly, and seem to be happy to be at work. It's refreshing these days too see that unfortunately. Thanks, Taco John's!“

“While visiting in Peoria, I had a craving for fried chicken. I found Sharkey's Express on Google Maps. This was the best fried chicken I have ever had!! It was made fresh while I waited (well worth the wait). I also had French fries which were also the best along with Cole slaw. The owner gave me a dessert of chocolate and nut covered grapes, which were delicious. All of the desserts looked great. I only wish this place was local for me. Kudos to the owner!!“

“I have been going to taco John’s in ep a lot this past month and everytime I come which is usually later with the night crew they get my order right every time and have the best customer service. Super cool people they deserve some recognition“

“stopped in for lunch, great food as always!“

“Great Staff....Great Professional Service“

“So Five Guys isn't super cheap that's sure but the food is good the fries are great and you get a giant helping but honestly what makes this place so amazing is the staff and the service. They are always upbeat positive friendly helpful and amazing and you know what I'll pay a little bit more money for a place that treats me like that so keep up the good work

Parking: It's a giant strip mall there's tons of parking“

“Mostly go through drive thru although I have went in for restroom many times and it always been clean and fresh the people that work there have been vary nice and friendly and the food has always left me satisfied it's always hot and tasty thanks you guys are one of the best“

“I had lunch here today, and I just wanted to give big "Thank you!" to two very generous ladies working there. They were beyond kind, and they made my day. Very impressed with this restaurant's kindness and service. I try to often, but I will definitely be paying it forward! #payitforward #bekindtooneanother“

“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!“

“Best place around the area for food and ice cream everyone is so kind and nice“

“I am 62 had never been inside a Culver's. Visited on November, 7th 2024. The menu option was wonderful, the service fast. Employees were very professional. The facility was spotless, even though there was a lunch crowd. The food was freshly made and to my surprise, hot. It wasn't lukewarm nor just microwaved. I don't usually do fast food, but will visit Culver's before the other fast food options. Pleasantly surprised!!“

“Fantastic & uniquely different meat sauce over a steamed weiner & bun. 😋 It taste the same the ones I ate in Early "80" at the corner of Forest Hill & Gale. A tradition continues for those who want it.“

“This was a first time stop. The restaurant was very quiet and secluded. So we was not sure it was opened. We saw no cars but one then people started coming in to the drive through. Inside the restaurant was clean, and seemed to be kept up pretty well. The service was good and the young man brought our lunch right to us. The food was okay too much salt on the fries and the coleslaw was a tad bit dry needed more dressing. This place is in a good location near by Sam's club. If you are hungry for a quick bite that will not break the bank. This is your stop.

Parking: Good parking.

Kid-friendliness: Have a place for the kids to eat.

Wheelchair accessibility: Roll your wheel chair right in the place.“

“Literally just left there & When I Tell Y’all Hailey In The Drive Through Did So Well That I’m Typing This And Haven’t Even Made It Home Yet ! I was a bit difficult I know because I do not eat here at all so I had so many questions and was changing my order etc ( not purposely being annoying ) but I just wasn’t sure , even tho they were busy not once did she get frustrated with me she was so nice and sweet about it and answered all my questions , even getting to the window she greeted me with the most beautiful smile and welcoming vibe I felt so valued as a customer because of her and my food is hot fresh and amazing for ! This was an excellent 1st experience for me and I don’t even live this way but I will drive 20 minuets just to come eat here again because of her service !! She’s so amazing I’m young myself & it’s hard finding people who genuinely care and it’s makes the company look so nice 🫶🏿“

“Initially, our order was completely wrong. We did not realize this until we got home. We called the store and they asked us to come back. They more than made up for their mistake. We got extra fish and even a coupon for a free fry. I understand mistakes happen, but its all about how you fix them. This store did an amazing job. Customer service at its best!“

“So much better than Steak 'n Shake well now that Steak 'n Shake has no staff. Till Steak 'n Shake brings back a wait staff this is pretty much the same food but hot , fresh and cheaper, will just go to Freddy's!“

“The only thing I think that could have been better with our experience is the wait at the cashier/counter. There was a lengthy line, and there were others on staff that could have helped. This would have sped things up a little. The young lady who was taking orders did her best and was very professional and kind.“

“They have the BEST food and always have generous portions. Our daughter LOVES the hamburgers and my son always gets a hot dog. The gyros are PERFECT and if you want to get one of the best things on the menu then you want to get a Philly Cheese Steak sandwich. I tried a bite of my husband's last night and about melted in my chair. The best Philly I have ever had! The staff are extremely friendly too! We have never had a bad experience. Super Gyros is really a hidden gem in the East Peoria area! It's become one of our favorite places. The food is delicious, the prices are reasonable, and you always leave FULL! 😁“

“For a Taco Bell, it's pretty good. Loved the stone parking lot.> Quesadilla were not warmed enough to melt cheese. Everything else was as expected. Friendly employees and watched an employee wash their hands thoroughly after restroom. So that is a big plus!!“

“I want to say I really appreciated and loved the yard display they had. Someone took some time and love to make the building and surrounding look very nice. It looked really nice and that’s some good job on the managements part. 👍🏼“

“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.“

“Every time I enter the building I’m always greeted with a “Hello”. The lobby is clean, tables are taken care of and the staff stay busy. There’s a gentleman there that stands out due to his red bow tie. He has a good heart and a good head on his shoulders.“

“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.“

“This is our go to for birthday cakes. They do an amazing job with the designs.“

“The guy who did our food and help my son thank you. He look like he was new and was very helpful. He was guy and had blonde hair I think I’ll try catch his name next tim I go in .“

“The United States’ Apollo 11 was, allegedly, the first manned mission to land on the moon. In the summer of 1969, the “astronauts” on the mission were Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins, though Michael Collins didn’t go on the moon — he was in orbit while Armstrong and Aldrin walked on the moon. However, none of this actually happened. The moon landing was faked and was a government conspiracy to bring patriotism back during the Cold War.The flagIn the photos, it looks as if the American flag is flapping in the breeze, but anyone can tell you there shouldn’t be wind on the lunar surface. Because we had never been on the moon, the director of the moon landing, arguably Stanley Kubrick, put a fan outside of the camera shot to make it appear that it was blowing in the wind, which doesn’t exist on the moon, clearly showing that the moon landing was fake.The photographerThe story goes that there were only two astronauts that went on the moon, but in many of the pictures, you can see a photographer in the reflection of their suits. I don’t need to go any further on this one.The starsIn the photographs of the Earth from the moon’s surface, there are no stars. Someone could argue that the moon’s surface reflects the sun and that the glare would’ve made the stars difficult to see, but that just isn’t true. You can see the stars when it’s dark outside on Earth, so there should be stars in the pictures because it’s obviously dark on the moon.The reflectionsIn many of the moon landing pictures, there are reflections and lights that could only come from studio lighting on a production set.Photoshopped objectsIn many of the pictures, there are duplicates of the exact same rock right next to each other. There are duplicate craters as well, showing that they went back and edited the footage to look more space-like. There are also duplicate backgrounds in many of the photos, even though they were said to be taken in different places.In conclusion, the moon landing was faked, and we’ve all been living a lie. Do yourself a favor, and stop pretending we went to the moon.“

“I just want to say that I had great service! I ordered my online order and pulled up to Taco Bell and they were so busy I waited 30 minutes which was fine because they were so packed and when I got to the window they made me fresh food without me even asking it was so good really appreciated the workers“

“This is the taco bell to go to. Great food, great staff. Always clean.

Dietary restrictions: My son is a pretty picky eater and they go above and beyond to make sure his burrito is exactly how he wants it

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly“

“Arby’s in Sunnyland/Washington is the best one in the Peoria area for sure. Every time I come here they are friendly and efficient. Janessa is always very kind and friendly. My food is always fresh and hot. Never have I had a bad experience from here. Would recommend this one over all the other Arby’s around here. Please give the staff a proper credit for their hard work.“

“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.“

“Food was amazing the woman working the front line was great i believe her name was Brittney she was very friendly smiled alot did not let me feel ignored or unnoticed got my order correct the first time and made me feel very welcome to be there very polite and professional young woman you have in her i think she deserves a raise first time ive felt welcome in a fast food establishment in the last couple of years“

“Every time I go though the drive through: Autumn (who I believe works the drive through register) always speaks very clear and is always serves with a smile. I’ve never have had a bad experience when she is working. I wish more places had workers this “

“Good. food. reasonably. priced.“

“We went at about 7PM on a Monday (CAT employees get a free drink with their meal on Mondays if they show their ID). The service was very personable and professional and the sandwiches were very good. I’m not typically a fan of hot subs but I loved these! I think it was a little overpriced but the free drink balanced it out.“

“They got my order wrong on gas for three soft Taco Supremes and a burrito supreme I got to the window and they said well you didn't ask for tacos supreme so it's going to cost you an extra $2.30 so this time at Taco Bell they sucked“

“Being raised in Mesa AZ, this place is so literally refreshing. The steak and chicken tacos will literally cleanse your pallet with just onion, cilantro, and a bit of cheese. Very important that the meat is fine and crispy and both the chicken and the steak is every time. Get the kids a cheese quesadilla which is very thick and filling and there’s no reason to go anywhere else nearby. Lots of various candies for the kids too.“

“Due to halal concerns, we do not have many choices except fries and fish sandwiches. Unfortunately, I rarely get the fish menu there. I took four curly fries, and 90 percent were broken, which disappointed us. It seems they do not have enough customers. I hope they will survive with pride and quality.“

“Dear Steak ‘n Shake,

Myself and Christianna Bennet, wanted to take a moment to thank you for the delicious food and the beautiful view we enjoyed during our visit. As college students, it’s always nice to have a relaxing dining experience, and we appreciated the atmosphere. However, we felt it was necessary to bring up an issue with two of your staff members during our visit. The guy in the red shirt and the young woman were both rude and made us feel uncomfortable. Specifically, the guy asked if I had an ID to receive the food I had already paid for, which felt more like a joke, but we did not find it humorous and it left us feeling uneasy. We simply came to enjoy our meal, and we wanted to share this so you can be aware of the situation. We hope this can be addressed for future guests. Thanks again for the food and the view, but we do hope the staff can be more considerate next time.

Sincerely,
Odice Anderson & Christianna Bennet“

“This is one of the cleanest restaurants I've come across since relocating to East Peoria a few months ago. Service has been fast and friendly, and food is well-prepared.

If I had to say one negative, it's the layout of the parking lot - tough to exit when someone is at the drive-through speaker, but it's easy enough to park in the adjacent lot and walk the extra 20 steps. I'll gladly walk a little farther for a clean and well-run restaurant.“

“Jennifer was SO nice and kind. I could tell she is hardworking and cares about her coworkers. The onion rings were the bomb.com!“

“So glad they’re in town now. Quality fast food items. Cheeseburgers and chicken tenders are great. Flamethrower burger! DQ desserts can’t be beat. Ice cream cakes etc. French fries ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I like this location. So far Everytime I've walked in, no matter the staff member they were friendly, inviting, and professional. I know some locations are hit or miss, and I'm sure everyone has different experiences, but this location so far is the best in the city.

Vegetarian options: Choose no meat“

“Whenever i go into subway in the morning there is a kind African American women that is always greeting me with a smile on her face, and she always makes sure my food is correct. I love going in there when she is there because she is so positive and treats her customers with respect, and kindness.“

“they are amazing amazing service and food ! I love the new sandwich which is the frenchie!“
