Fantastic place here in Peoria, IL. Great atmosphere – would be our local hangout if we lived in the area. Food was really good, service was great. The owner/chef (Michael) was super friendly and spoke with a couple of times while we were there for lunch. Fun, Fun, Fun!

My family were visiting the Peoria area and decided to go to SLE for their buffet brunch. This is the first bad review I didn’t want to write. The people were super nice but the food was not good.

Online it says it was open and I called prior to coming no answer. I drove 18 minutes up here for some soul food just to find out they are not open and that’s frustrating especially because I had my son with me. If the hours were updated that would be great.

This is a wonderful little place to catch a bite to eat. We had tacos, and they were great! You should check this place out. It’s definitely worth the drive from Pekin.

Delicious food & generous serve size. The menu is a single sheet of paper with limited choices and best described by other people as homestyle southern cooking. Only disappointment was it was served in a takeout container with flimsy plastic cutlery. Kinda hard to cut my beef tips

What a great hidden treasure! You know how everyone says (when on vacation) to find those spots where the locals eat to discover authentic food at great prices? Well look no further….this is one of those places for Peoria. A classy soul food restaurant with a relaxing atmosphere and absolutely delicious classics. A special mention for the whole fried catfish, cole slaw and the baked beans. Really, don’t sleep on the baked beans… you will thank me later. 🙂 The staff was very friendly and the owner/ chef was kind enough to stop by our booth and thank us for stopping in. Overall, more folks need to discover this eatery.

I found a ROACH in my food which made me sick and the zesty owner refused to refund me . He also took all the food back and resold it. Don’t come here smh it’s horrible . The five star reviews are fake . The health department needs to visit much better, safer, affordable food at core life eatery down the street
