My motorcycle club stopped in for dinner on a Tuesday Ride Night. I ordered the Jalapeno burger with bacon and cheese. It was good. The service was great. The atmosphere was of a nice sports bar. Plenty of TV's and full bar. We don' t drink and ride but the bar sure looked inviting.

Supreme pizza had very little cheese vs other single or double topping pizza with more cheese. Was told that is just the way it is. Not very pleased with response.

Great calzones and customer service. I suggest building your own pizza or calzone with one of their multiple sauces. The garlic butter is my personal favorite. My favorite thing about this place is the amount of TV's for sports. Don't fret if your a house divided - they show both the Cards and Cubs!

We had a pizza, caesar salads and mozzarella sticks. It was very good. It may appeal to people that like to get creative with their pizzas. All kinds of sauces and toppings. I like their crust. It's the the thin and crispy style. Service was great.

This place is a solid sports bar. Lots of TVs and lots of space. They've got great thin-crust pizza, which rivals Monical's. And that's saying a lot, since Monical's has been the thin-crust king of Peoria forever. They also have an awesome lunch buffett: salad, pizza, wings, dessert

I gave this place 3 stars as a balance. I'd give the building itself a solid 4 stars, because it does have a nice setup. I'd also give 4 stars for the bar, as it looks nicely stocked. The food here is not bad, but everything I've had here has been so bland. I love the thin and crispy crust of the pizza, but everything else kind of falls flat in the flavor department, including the sauce, cheese and toppings. We ordered the garlic breadsticks last time. They looked and tasted just like the New York brand ones you can buy in the freezer at the grocery store. If I happen to order an appetizer (which is not often), I expect it to taste better than something I could have heated at home. This place has so much more potential than this. It seems like there needs to be a change in whatever supplier they use for their ingredients. Spring for a little higher quality ingredients, and this place could be packed for the food alone...not just because a certain game is on.

Drinks were tasty and cheap. The pizza was thin and crispy. Buffalo Pizza was OK, but I wish it was more buffalo less ranch.

The pizza is ok. Wings could be a little crispier but the sauce was good. Service was not good. We had to wait a really long time before our waiter came. And afterwards. We only saw him once...when he brought the check. I think there are better places to get pizza.

Been here twice now, the first time we got the pound of pepperoni pizza with a bucket of beers and a side of mozzarella sticks. I was disappointed with the pizza, the taste was average and both the pepperoni and cheese were very conservatively applied, overall it was ok. I decided to go back a second time with the family and was pleasantly satisfied. My wife and I got the Buffalo chicken pizza, cheese garlic bread, and the kids ordered off of the kids menu. The pizza was very good this time and the kids seemed satisfied. The service also seemed much better the second time around. Overall I am glad we decided to give it another chance and will likely be back if we are in the area looking for something good to eat.

Great food! Great libations! Great atmosphere! I have always had a very enjoyable experience while dining at this establishment, old and new. Aaron and Katie have built a legendary staple in Peoria. They also have a Tuesday Trivia Night with a hilariously entertaining Trivia Master MC, Chase Lisenby. It all adds to a wonderful experience. I would definitely recommend that everyone go there and try the Bosco Sticks, Chicken Alfredo Pizza, and a Skillet Cookie for dessert. While your at it, have a pint. There is always a great daily drink special.

Very bland. The burger was obviously from a frozen patty and the meatball sandwich had less flavor than a Subway sandwich. The potato wedges were better than the crinkle cut fries but still par at best. The pizza may be good here, but judging by the other food, I highly doubt it.

Pizza is really good, so is the homemade chips and special sauce. I have not tried anything else, but it is worth the trip for the pizza and chips.

Went Here 5/9/2015 in the afternoon (~3pm or so) We walked in, and were greeted at the desk by a seater. maybe manager? We got a longer U shaped table along the side wall. The waiter came to talk to us within a minute or so, and took out drink order. 3 Blue moons, one for each of us. He returned shortly after with the drinks, all had a lemon slice. We gave him the order, a family salad, and a BBQ Pizza with green olives. The salad came within a few minutes. The salad seemed to be fresh cut, and had shredded cheese, tomatoes, etc. It came with ranch and french dressings. Ranch was hidden valley almost certainly, the french was sweeter. Similar to Monicals, but not as sweet. The pizza came within about 15 - 20 minutes after the salad, which is about normal. The toppings were a bit lacking in terms of volume, but everything tasted fresh, especially the chicken, which tasted like the Tyson. The waiter came back multiple times to check on us, almost too much in my opinion, but I have to admire the dedication to customers. We got the check shortly after finishing the pizza, and headed out to the movies . ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Food: 4/5 Drinks: 4/5 Service: 5/5 Environment: 5/5 Overall 5/5 Advice to Management: Don't be afraid of too many toppings on the pizza. They seem to be more on sauce, and less on toppings. Also, oranges, not lemons with blue moon

Very fun atmosphere!! Tuesday was trivia night. The service & food were great. Their calzones are in my top 3 places I would order one. Will definitely go there again.

Had the buffalo chicken pizza. Pizza was served warm versus hot. Was disappointed with the chicken they put on the pizza. The chicken was breaded which leads me to believe they probably used chicken nuggets or chicken strips versus chicken breast. We also ordered a veggie pizza which was loaded with toppings but was served warm versus hot. There are much better pizza restaurants in the area in my opinion.

Needed a late night pizza fix and their kitchen hours were perfect. Taco pizza was pretty tasty, could've used a little more sauce but I didn't mind the super thin crust - it works with the taco at least. I liked that the lettuce was in a separate cup so wasn't wilted by the time I got it home. Also tried some wings and they were large and not very greasy at all. Good flavor too. It really hit the spot and didn't break the bank. Oh and they have a carry out door around the side closest to Coney's which is nice so you don't need to walk through the bar.

Was there on a Sunday afternoon to watch a race on tv. Sat at the bar and had one of their pizzas, it was good! Bartender was polite, smiling and very attentive (bald guy who also works at Catapillar, the Double A;s owner should give hime a raise, he's good). Atmosphere was good, most people there were watching one of the games on tv. Nice and clean, I'd come back.

Best pizza and calzones in town! Always had great service there. When it's warm they have an outside area to enjoy as well.

This is a great neighborhood pizza place. The M-F lunch buffet is always fantastic. Try the homemade chips and their wings- mmmmmm. The pizza is thin and has a delicious sauce. (I'm kind-of a pizza snob). The carryout is convenient and they offer free Membership into their "stadium club" for special offers and sometimes freebies.

Good looking restaurant. That is where the positives stop. The pizza is bland. Usually, a pizza place has something to make them stand out. A great crust, a unique sauce, or a special cheese. Not here. Very Boring. Many of the menu items come straight from a box in the freezer. You could buy the same things from Sam's Club. When I am going out, I want something that I cannot have at home. The chicken wings sit out uncovered so when they reach your table they are dry. Also, the draft beer tastes stale and old. I wouldnt mind subpar food if they had excellent prices. But for the two of us, with drinks, app, and pizza, the bill is easily over $60. How this place was semi-busy puzzles me.

Pizza is a famous Italian dish savored around the world. The entire credit for the popularity of Pizza in the United States goes to the chain of pizzerias all over the country. While the base and the texture of Pizza remains same across the globe, it's the toppings that differs from country to country. In the United States, you will find the top pizzerias serving pizzas with the toppings of mainly beef, bacon, chicken, ham, and sausage for the non-vegetarians. Other than these famous meat options, Pizzas with veg toppings such as mushrooms, pepperonis, garlic, tomatoes, spinach, etc. are also famous in most restaurants in the United States.
Irrespective of your locality, you will find a variety of different restaurants in your cities offering pizzas of all different types. Pizza is hot favorite among people of all ages in the United States. A large size pizza is enough to feed a family of 3 or 4 at large. Pizza is also the most preferred food whenever a group of friends is hanging out together. Pizza gained popularity in the United States after the American soldiers stationed in Italy returned from World War II.
Over the years, different pizzerias in the United States have developed their own respective regional variations. Pizza gained popularity as the iconic dish in the United States in the second half of the 20th century. Whether you prefer thin or thick crust pizza, you can find a pizza of your preference at the best pizza restaurants in your city.
