Restaurants in Peru

“Best homemade sandwiches in town. Fast service, great staff.”

“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!”

“Stone jug catered my wedding this past weekend and the food was absolutely perfect! My guests raved about it the entire night. We ordered the brisket, mac & cheese, beans, and potato salad.

“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!!”

“I stopped in there for the first time yesterday. Starbucks has always been my go to for coffee. I ordered my normal, a mocha. It was made quickly, the staff was very nice and friendly, and the mocha one of the best I’ve ever had! This will be my new coffee place when I am in Peru!”

“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 🐺”

“Its in hyvee so I understand being busy and distracted. But the staff could at least be nice and make orders correctly.. the past few times I've gone it's been young girls laughing/playing around with each other and after waiting what feels like forever for the drink they just get it wrong and get upset when you ask them to remake it.”

“Nice folks. Green tea soy latte with SF caramel ! Yummy. Great for the ride home!”

“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.”

“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!”

“Very good service the are very nice people and kindly”

“Manager was exceptional, some staff were in training and he handled it all so well.
Getting in and out of the location was slightly challenging.
Sandwiches were excellent.”

“I had went thru the drive thru today n I wanted to the new ceaser bacon chicken sandwich n I requested for my meal to be made all fresh. So they asked us to pull up n wait on it. We'll it took about maybe 10 to 15mins to be made which was fine I had no problem to wait on freshly made food. So the employee came out n handed me my food n he mentioned sorry for the long wait but we gave u guys another free ceaser bacon chicken sandwich, well I said tyou for much! It made my day n I was really hungry n it hit the spot too n all was fresh n nicely made! I was shocked to get a free item! Way to go Peru, keep up the good work! 🥰 🙏 🤑🙌🫶”

“House of Hunan is the spot to go when you need that Chinese food craving satisfied. My wife and I were wondering where to get some takeout and it occurred to us that we haven't had Chinese cuisine in a long time... So, we ordered for pickup from House of Hunan and it was perfect! Side note; It was even better than I remembered! We have had it before, many times, but this was great! The Governor's Chicken and Mongolian Beef are our favorites.”
