The food is amazing along with the service and beautiful artwork. The owner was very attentive and friendly. I ordered the Havana which was delicious along with my banana cupcake with chocolate peanut butter frosting. One of the best local restaurants in Peoria!

I came to this establishment because of the phenomenal Google reviews and they did not disappoint. I came early as I was just blocks away from a Drs appt and meeting my fiancee for lunch, and it was pouring out. I got a coffee and strained myself looking at their amazing options. The owners were patient, accommodating and helpful. I settled on a Havana box lunch with red skin-on potato salad, a lemon cupcake and lemonade and for my honey, a bird and a pig with a swap in garnish, potato salad, peach cobbler cupcake and a strawberry lemonade. The Havana was messy…and I couldn’t care less because the flavors were out of this world!!!! It could have been spicier, but seriously wonderful! The potato salad was ah-mazing, and I just wanted more of everything! My girl’s Sammie was fresh and she kept raving about the taste. The cupcakes. Omg the cupcakes. The lemon was wonderful, but the star was the peach cobbler! The peach bits, the nutmeg, the cinnamon, the not too sweet icing!!! Now I’m excited to hear what my kids think of their chocolate and vanilla cupcakes!!! It was so good I didn’t stop to take pics! The prices pp are more towards $20 pp if you get everything, but well worth it!!! We will be back!!!

Parking: Parking lot share with neighboring business and free parking out front! Go!!!

The atmosphere is very trendy with the beautiful mural on the wall of the family/owners.

I’ve been to the restaurant which is charming and delightful and I’ve used them to cater at work. The service is outstanding in both situations and the food is incredible. We had a superb vegetarian option for a department retreat and the dish was empty! One of the top on my favorite list.

This is one of Peoria's hidden gems that shouldn't be hidden. Their salads & sandwiches are fabulous. When my friend asked if they could make her a pulled pork sandwich, even though it wasn't on the menu for that day, they told her no problem! The only regret I have is the knowledge that my grandma Maxine did not get the opportunity to try their peach cupcakes with marscapone frosting! They are, hands down, the best peach cupcake I have ever devoured.

I just got an order for pickup so cannot fully judge the service experience or atmosphere, but this place has the most delicious ginger Thai wrap with saffron aioli and their cupcakes are sooo well made with quality ingredients. Will definitely be back!

Worst place to get a meal catered in Peoria. $75 for plastic silvereware, $150 for a fuit plate full of melon. $3.75 per cupcake but if you buy 30 of them $120 for "display" which is a plastic tray. I order catering for my job often and have ordered from almost everywhere in Peoria and a Chef and a Baker is by FAR the worst company that I have worked with. DO NOT recommend

Great food and great people. You'll feel like you're having lunch with friends. My favorite is one of their Sammies. The Hadron is wonderful.
