The Blue Duck Barbecue Tavern in Peoria remains a top choice for BBQ fans. Known for their excellent ribs, brisket, and Asian tacos, the generous portions and perfect temperatures have impressed visitors. The warm and inviting atmosphere adds to its charm, making it ideal for a dinner or date night. With great prices, it is also a perfect spot for pre-concert appetizers and drinks. Guests have praised the St. Louis Style Ribs, the Asian BBQ sandwich, and the chopped brisket plate. Located in an old train station, the restaurant offers ample parking. Customers enjoy the good beer selection, friendly and attentive staff, and fast service. Many have noted the delicious sides, like Mac N Cheese and bacon potato salad, and the sweet key lime pie as a delightful finish to their meals. Recent reviews highlight the large, meaty ribs and the great BBQ sauce, although some found the brisket a bit dry. The restaurant has also catered events, impressing guests with their pulled chicken and chopped brisket. The steady barbecue energy flavor and down-to-earth comfort vibe make The Blue Duck a consistent favorite for diners looking to refuel while enjoying a welcoming atmosphere.
