Restaurants in Peru

“Hands down one of the most delicious meals my husband and I have had. I had the Chicken Marsala, which our server recommended, and my husband had the meatloaf. Both dishes were incredible! Then we shared the Irish cream cheesecake for dessert, and it was to die for. Service and atmosphere were great, too. The next time we visit Peoria, we'll be back for another meal!”

“Dont know what happened tonight. Ordered an old drink thats not on the menu but ive always got it, even thru last month. Ordered another drink and waited over 30 min. Sent mushrooms back because they were burnt, literally stuck to the dish. Heard kitchen staff holler "for real" lol. Ended up walking out after 40 minutes still no drinks. Biscuits finally came out after 25min. Manager and kitchen staff need some retraining. She didnt even come talk to us. Normally great. idk what they were doin tonight. BTW there was maybe 3 other tables. Hopefully management and kitchen staff get it together.”

“A year later a my baby’s birthday is tomorrow, he will be a year old. Here I was watching TikTok and seen this “labor drink” I was so curious so I called Starbucks here in Peru Illinois and explained to them. When I say the best service ever and their curiosity as well. 100000/10 . Needless to say I went into labor the next morning. Happy Birthday to Wolf 🐺”

“Drove by this place on accident so we decided to stop. Very friendly bartender. Clean establishment. Just a nice home town corner pub. Stop in and have a drink, you will enjoy it.”

“I had breakfast there staff greeted me with good morning I had 3 eggs 4 sausage patties hash browns and wheat toast and coffee it was 15. Well worth the price dining area was clean. They are also offering 3 meals due to snap crisis”

“Our server Jamie S was absolutely amazing. I recently found out im pregnant and although the Shrimp Scampi sounded amazing, the baby was not a fan and all i could taste was fishy vinegar (not at all how the meal actually tasted as my husband tried it) upon noticing i wasnt eating it she asked if it was ok i told her yes it absolutely was but baby wasnt a fan. She apologized to which I told her it wasnt her fault, she then offered me another bowl of chicken gnocchi. She was absolutely amazing and took great care of us.”

“Best place we stayed between Chicago and Grafton, IL! We were stuck at Starved Rock lock for around 5 hours. We didn't get through until after dark (9:30-ish). I called and amazingly enough a guy named Chuck answered the phone! He said our boat was a little big for anything they had available but he could put us at their fuel dock for the night. He waited until we got there around 11pm, helped us get tied up then invited us to the bar for drinks and even opened the kitchen and made us supper! Seriously the best place we stayed. Fun, clean, not pretentious, extremely accommodating, and super reasonable prices! Thank you South Shore Boat Club - and Chuck - for your help and amazing hospitality!!”

“Lu's is hit or miss usually, but I ordered delivery tonight and received one of the BEST margharita pizzas I've had in a long while. Compliments to the chef!”

“We all know jimmy John’s has great sandwiches but this location has the best employees as well! Our car broke down in the parking lot and they were more than accommodating, even to the point of offering assistance to help us get back on the road. 10/5 stars!!!! When you get the chance stop in to see Steve, Eric and Ian!!!”

“This specific restaurant has stellar customer service. The manager of this establishment, a Ms. Victoria, went the extra mile to provide this consumer a satisfying experience. A welcoming attitude, good atmosphere, and very polite. Another Jersey Mike establishment in Bloomington, IL had failed to deliver a sandwich, even after receiving payment. But the manager at this location offered and proceeded to kindly replace the sandwich after hearing of this unfortunate incident, making up for the other locations' failure to deliver. This Peru location had no obligation to make up for another establishments' shortcoming, but these wonderful employees did. And that is going above and beyond. High praise and 10/10 stars. Knowing customer satisfaction is prioritized at this Peru, Illinois establishment, I endeavor to make it a place I frequent for a tasty and reliable sub.”
