Restaurants near West Peoria

“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!”

“One of the best breakfasts I’ve ever had. The service was awesome. Super impressed!”

“Wonderful people, wonderful place”

“We came along way and buy it be a New Year’s Eve. We didn’t look forward to coming to Peoria not having anything to do when we arrived. There were only like four cars in the lot so we figured we were pretty early for the New Year’s bash security at the front door said there was a $25 cover fee. There was no food and he said that there were only three people in the bartender inside, which disappointed me to the bottom of my heart when I come back to Peoria, maybe it will be a more greater experience being that they won’t be charging people at the door who in the world would pay $25 or New Year’s Eve and you didn’t even have food we didn’t come from Chicago to visit somewhere as such so waste of money not knowing what the atmosphere would be like once the crowd picked up, and since we werethe first ones in the crowd to be there before midnight. You could have at least let us in for free because just a couple hours after New Year’s you were packed that was the most ghetto thing I had ever heard of.”

“Always a great atmosphere and love that Guinness Beer on Draft .”

“Had dinner and drinks tonight. Great food and fun!”

“Walked in and immediately smelled smoke, not the good kind. It smelled like an ashtray. We ordered fried green tomatoes and they were pretty decent. Then came the 3 meat platter, We had the chicken, pork and brisket. All the meats were pretty dry and had 0 smoke flavor. It reminded me of that store stuff you microwave. Pork was mid. The brisket was off tasting, more like pot roast. The chicken was the worst, no flavor at all and very dry. The baked beans and mashed potatoes were good. Don't know if it was a bad night or what but probly won't be back.”

“excellent service, flawless food, and welcoming vibe”

“I didn't plan on having to use a walker to attend Paul Cauthen. From Stephanie, David, Jasmine, Kitty and all staff. I could not of attended without all of your help!!!! And the show and vibe was so worth attending!!! The outside area is so nice as well. Thank you!!!!!”

“I was having a conversation with a worker and noticed her using lots of organic ingredients and real Himalayan salt... this sparked my curiosity and I started paying attention to the food she was making ... I decided to buy lunch here after initially just grabbing my first ever coffee at this coffee shop .... to my surprise that dragon berry fruit bowl was absolutely amazing. I have never been to a place that uses clean ingredients like this. This was a great experience. 5 stars!”

“Had my first experience today with a friend for lunch. This was the best lunch I have had in the past 3 years. Wish I lived closer would be a regular at this lovely and friendly restaurant. You are going to be a great success.”

“Food and service are always excellent, hands down best fine dining in Peoria. Inspired menus, extensive bar, welcoming atmosphere and dim lighting make it the perfect date night landing. Get the Brussels sprouts.”

“Ice cream flavors are unique! Blackberry, lavender, and cheese! Yum....would go back to try some others, but a bit pricey. Wish they had some other savory treats like tacos or something similar ? maybe in the future?”

“I ordered online for store pick up. Website was easy to use, pick up was smooth. We got the lean brisket and it was wonderful!! The cheesy potatoes are fantastic. Its a little pricey, but we'll definitely eat there again.”

“I tried the St. Louis Style Ribs with baked beans, cornbread, & fried pickles. Delicious BBQ. Friendly & attentive staff. I'll be back! The BEST! (2022) 🦆 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“I ordered mushrooms they were over cooked. Waitress offered to bring another order. I had 7 layer salad, very good. I thought soft drinks were overpriced. If we come back I will have water.”

“The great restaurant their food is really good and the staff are friendly.”

“These cookies are always good. Some flavors are overly sweet though. I suggest buying the cookie cutter they sell, see as 1/4 of a cookie is the recommended serving size. It is that way for good reason. More than that can be sweet overkill. My spouse and I usually go every couple weeks and share a new cookie flavor together. It is very fun to try all the new flavors that they switch out weekly.
This location has workers that are a little less friendly than the East Peoria location. But it's not too bad.”
