Best margaritas in the Peoria area. Enjoyed many Rita’s this summer outdoors by myself or with friends. Food is great and servers are very attentive, and always smiling. Going to miss the warm weather sitting outside sipping on my favorite drink!
Great food, and drinks. With a polite curious staff.
Go to El Taco Loco on Lake/Sheridan instead. Don’t waste your time here, it’s gone way down hill since they opened 20 years ago. Way overpriced, mediocre food these days. Charging $3.75 for individual street tacos? Ridiculous. Tortillas, chicken, cilantro, and onions? Please. This is Peoria, IL, not a foodie destination in NYC. I commented to the owner about this obvious robbery and he said “then go to Taco Bell”. Nice.

Jalapenos is a local favorite restaurant known for its friendly service and delicious food. The BBQ nachos with pork are a must-try, featuring melt-in-your-mouth pork and amazing sauce. Vegetarian options like Chile rellenos tacos/burritos are available upon request. While prices may be a bit high, the margarita specials are a hit. The food is fresh and well-seasoned, with a clean texture that tastes like it’s fresh from a garden. Some dishes like the casa barrita are only available on certain days, so checking ahead is wise. The tacos are meaty and flavorful, and the guacamole is praised as the best ever. Although some items like the chimichangas may fall short, overall, Jalapenos provides a pleasant dining experience with fast service and a warm atmosphere. The attentive staff, including servers like Pablo, ensure customers feel welcome and well taken care of.
