I don't complain much but I was very upset with our whole experience here. My shoes stuck to the floor. But we was so hungry we sat an thought maybe the floor was cleaned and didn't get done right! Well our drinks came quick. Gave our order.....soup was great or I may of been starving after a 17hr drive ?! But the rest of the food was not very good!I love Perkins normally. Server was sweet but not attentive to our needs! Just a upsetting experience!

They were very short staffed but yet they were extremely friendly and efficient.. The food was very good. I had the grilled white fish with shrimp. It was cooked to perfection

Dirty restaurant, slow service, waited quite a while for our order,, incorrect order, we had trouble paying for our bill. I would find it difficult to return. A bad experience at this particular Perkins when they are usually so enjoyable.

Kids and I very much enjoy coming in for breakfasts. Waitresses and always super nice and helpful and food is delicious and affordable.

Food was OK. Wait staff very friendly. Walked in Saturday, 4/9/22 only to learn they were turning people away because their computers were down. They had no back up abilities to take orders or to even pay for the food.

No complaints what so ever. I ordered the Pot Roast Stroganoff which was plenty and delish. My wife had the pork chops. Small but they gave you two so that made plenty and she gave me a bite and they were tasty and very tender. Probably what I will order the next time. The service was average but we would definitely go back. No regrets.

We’re new to the area and decided to check out Perkins for dinner. We arrived around 445pm and it wasn’t busy. We were seated promptly by a woman with dyed red hair. She was super attentive, didn’t have a name badge, wish she did. I believe she was supposed to be a host, but wow within a few minutes that restaurant filled up! And it got busy! The host, with red hair, who seated us, never missed a beat though. She took our order, brought out drinks, checked on us, brought the food, checked on us again. She was running around like crazy, seating families, waiting on families. There were a few other waitresses in there who you could just see/hear were super friendly too! Wow, shocked!! Every employee in that place was just so nice and ran the place smoothly!When we got our check we asked for two pie slices to go and when we went to ring up, another waitress said that our waitress wanted to give them to us for free for a bit of a wait we had! Didn’t even feel we had any wait at any time. We tipped 50%. We will occupy Peoria Perkins more often because of our experience tonight.Also, food was great and came out fast and hot.

Service was Awesome abs the food was excellent. Our waitress was very helpful and suggested menu alternatives to save us money! Highly recommend dinning here!!

It's pretty bad when you spend 50 dollars on a carry out meal then have to cook your own eggs once you get home - and I prefer eating my eggs sunny side up, let's be clear. And literally every single item had something wrong like that - gravy missing on country fried steak? Etc etc etc. Four entrees, four mistakes. Some of them inedible.I take some perverse pleasure watching the downfall of the restaurant industry. All over, restaurants are giving terribly subpar service. The bosses are blaming their overworked laborers while they take home fat paychecks.I once applied for a job at Perkins. With my qualifications, I was a shoe-in for kitchen lead. They refused to try to afford me.Here's a pro tip, everybody: when a restaurant is overworked, short staffed, and underpaid, the first thing that suffers is the sanitation.Stay safe, yall. ;)

1 waitress, 1 cook, cashier, manager, and very crowded. Handled like Champs!!!! Linsey the waitress didn't miss a beat and I tipped her well. Food was excellent!! BRAVO PERKINS!!!
