Went to Mike's Tavern in West Peoria IL for lunch today. This is a small hole in the wall bar and grill. You first think of a two and a half garage that someone turned into a bar. You would be close . The owner is happy to tell you the history of the place.
I had their Tenderloin. Crispy crust, toasted and buttered bun. On the thin side of tenderloins but still thicker then most. Just comes with chopped onions and at least a dozen pickles. No lettuce or tomatoes. Husband had the Double Cheeseburger. Once again only chopped onions and pickles. We shared an order of Truffel Oil Fries. Hot and crispy. They were hard to stop eating! Normally these are Parmesan Truffle Oil Fries but they were out of Parmesan. Definitely worth a stop in for lunch. Kitchen isn't open on Monday or Tuesday. Small menu but food is GOOD EATS!

Small hole in the wall bar and grill. Great atmosphere and decor. Husband had the Cheeseburger, I had the Tenderloin and we shared the truffle oil fries. Food was hot, crisp, and very good.

So you might want to be prepare for people checking out you pork tenderloin sandwiches!

Really nice neighborhood bar worth checking out. A group of us went because we had heard about their tenderloins. It was good, but I thought the double cheese burger was better. Prices were reasonable, and the Oktoberfest beer was good and cold. There are only a few tables but plenty of room at the bar. We'll go back.

This is the best bar. Any other bar I go to, I think "I wish I were at Mike's instead." You're perfect -- never change.
