Haddad's Restaurant

Cute little family-owned ethnic gem in Peoria. It is so beautifully decorated with family picture that show the amazing heritage. The lady (owner/chef) was friendly. I loved her Hummus and Tabouli, both clearly homemade and very fresh. My daughter enjoyed her hamburger. My dish (Lebanese combo) was OK, perhaps because I'm just too picky on meat dishes. The place is small and even in off-peak hours (we stopped at ~3 perhaps) was busy, so it shows people appreciate it. My 8 yo daughter kept complimenting the design of the dining area and decorations. Very fairly priced and the portions are generous.

I can't believe this place is just a two-minute drive from where I work and I only just learned about it! Amazingly delicious. The tabbouleh was fresh and flavorful, and the kebabs we're perfection. The owner was a delight. Mediterranean food is comfort food for me, and I will definitely be back soon.

Great quality, friendly service, and super affordable food! Our table shared an order of cabbage rolls ($4), a falafel platter with hummus, baba ganoush, and parsley salad ($10), a Lebanese dinner platter with rice, kefte, gyro meat, cabbage rolls, green beans, and shawarma ($10), with complementary pita! The food came out quick and the waitress/cook was super friendly and attentive. Definitely coming back here; so sad I haven’t been here before!!
