Table 19 has transitioned to a breakfast-only restaurant. The only other time you can dine is from 5:00 pm to 10:00 pm in the Great Room bar, with a very limited menu. read more

I rarely ever do negative reviews because every establishment can have off days, but I feel this deserves addressed. Let me start by saying the waitress was extremely pleasant. No complaints there. We made reservations at Table 19 in New Year's Eve, unaware that they had an extremely limited menu that evening. Normally that would not be so bad except this menu was $80 a person. For that $80, you had an appetizer choice, an entree with 1 side, a salad choice and dessert choice, all from the limited menu. We thought about going elsewhere but thought, for that amount of money, it has to be good and you only live once, right. Well, the appetizers were very good as well as the salad, but it goes downhill after that. We each had a 16oz bone in ribeye. We ordered it medium. When it arrived sizzling in it's own cast iron skillet, we thought, oh wow, this is going to be amazing. The steak was practically bleeding in the middle. We never send steak back but had to this time. It came back so badly burned on the outside, we couldn't eat it. My green beans were plain ordinary beans and my husbands mashed potatoes were instant potatoes. For $80, we expected a little better quality food. I am sorry to write this negative review, but when you feel you can charge that much for a meal, it should be a little more palatable. I gave it 2 stars because the wait staff were very sweet. read more

First of all can we just clone Jessica (Server) and place her in all the restaurants in the U.S.? She was absolutely amazing even when I poopoo'd those tiny wine glasses and insisted I get my own from my car trunk. Tuna tartar and a bottle of red took my trip from dull town food desert, to delightful surprise! Ok corporate guys...can we get some music in this place??? read more

Table 19 is an oasis. Located downtown in the newly reopened Pere Marquette, it is more than just a hotel restaurant. The decor is upscale without being ostentatious or gaudy. It is just past the hotel bar, which in itself looks like a destination (and will be soon). The servers were attentive and polite. The menu is small, so hopefully they will change it seasonally. Their signature cocktails were good, just slight variations on established drinks. The calamari app was good, just a little small (not enough rings). Our entrees were delicious. Desert was also worth eating after being full. Too much too drink, too much to eat? Stay at the Marquette. Valet parking will make the dinner truly feel first class. Eat at Table 19. Stay at PM. Maybe enjoy the bar for drinks and small plates. read more

1. It's Peoria IL 2. It is a higher end Marriott property The menu at first gives you very good vibes and some excitement right off the bat. Being a summer night and looking to start a business trip off healthy I went for the Miso Soup, Asparagus Salad and the Seared Tuna. Miso Soup - take it off the menu. It's tasteless, the form doesn't work for the bowl and whatever flavor that are there don't meld weld together at all. Asparagus Salad - potential is the main word here. The asparagus itself was very fresh and tender but again the chef was afraid to add some flavor... Even a bit of salt. Throw some of that Meyer Lemon and some salt on top and you have a great fresh summer dish. Seared Tuna - best thing I had. Not afraid to add some flavored sauce and salt! I've had tuna a hundred times and thus was a 7.5 out of 10. Service - good but if the dinner hours say 5pm and I'm eating at the bar, please don't perform the orange juicing or floor mopping during my meal. I think the chef needs to make all of his dishes and taste them again. The space speaks higher end but the menu turned out to be an 'almost' type of experience. Pricing correlates to the space but the food needs to catch up. read more

The initial impression was not great. The hostess' demeanor did not match restaurant's reputation. She was gruff and messy. The ambiance of the place is no different than any of the dozens of hotel restaurants I have dined in during my travels. Our server was Jessica. She is awesome. I appreciate that she was honest about what she had tried and didn't just recommend something because the chef said to. Apps: Calamari. Light breading. Mild dipping sauce. Our only complaint was that they fried lemons instead of letting us squeeze the juice onto the dish. Dinner: We both had steaks. I had the NY strip and she had the skirt steak. Our 4 sides were the Mac n cheese, yucca fries, asparagus, and Brussel sprouts. The only one we were disappointed in was the yucca. It really didn't have any flavor. Then other three were great with the sprouts being our favorite. The kitchen messed up our steak orders. My wife ordered medium and I ordered medium rare. Her steak was defiantly medium rare. They brought her a new steak in less than 10 minutes and boxed up the "mistake" for us to take home. The char crust is excellent. Cost: $114. Not too bad for a bottle of wine, appetizer, and 2 steaks. We had $50 restaurant.com certificate which brought the bill down to $64. Overall: Good. We will come back. As far as downtown Peoria restaurants, this wasn't as good as Two25 but the food and the service (Jessica) were very good. The chef came out twice. He even gave us the recipe for the lavash which we loved. read more

Table 19 - NY strip, Mac n cheese, and Brussel sprouts. - New American Near Me - Peoria, Illinois

In town for a concert on a Saturday night and chose the hotel for convenience. Was expecting to have a nice dinner on site. Very limited menu with a choice of 2 salads and 2 "entrees" which were a cheeseburger or grilled cheese. The restaurant section was closed for some reason. Seating was in the lounge area, so lounge chairs and side tables. Definitely not a date night place. read more

We dined at T-19 on Saturday night. We were greeted right away, drink orders taken and served immediately. The server was prompt, friendly and very professional. Every item we had was delicious and perfectly prepared. I ordered the Braised Beef. I expected expected a nice dish with moderate serving size, but was very surprised and pleased to see the dish was over the top! The chunk of beef was literally enough for two people, and even with my big appetite, I couldn't finish it. The beef was perfectly cooked and one of the best beef dishes I have ever eaten. Total bill for two including two drinks was $50. We don't dine out often, but Table 19 will be one of our go-to places for date night! read more

I was seated very quickly and immediately approached by my waitress about my drink request. She was super friendly and ready to serve. I ordered the soup of the day - butternut squash - and it was amazing! I highly recommend it!! For dinner I was torn between the shrimp and grits or salmon or chicken Caesar salad. I decided to go with the salad as I wasn't starving. The chicken on my salad was clearly freshly prepared and the salad was well-dressed. It was delicious! Hit the spot. The dessert menu is verbal as it changes daily. Today's featured ice cream sandwiches, chocolate decadence cake, carrot cake, and a few others. I decided to go with the key lime pie. The key lime was just the right amount of tart. All in all this was a good meal for a late dinner. read more

Table 19 - Chicken Caesar Salad... Good stuff!! - New American Near Me - Peoria, Illinois

Table 19 is one of the very few ethical and sustainable focused restaurants in Peoria. The menu has a wide selection with seasonal entrees and a range of prices. Love the Brussels Sprouts and the Burger is totally solid. Bonus points for having Stone Brewing Co. IPA on tap! This Craft Beer girl loves to see a major chain hotel offer a true "craft" beer. The prices are reasonable, especially for a hotel restaurant. There are multiple entrees under $20 and some higher if you are in the mood for a good steak. Last but not least I find the staff to be very friendly and attentive. Kudos to Amanda, one of bartenders. I appreciate a server that offers menu suggestions and she had some great feedback when I asked for her opinion. read more

Table 19 - Chicken & Dumplings - Comfort food on a chilly, rainy night - New American Near Me - Peoria, Illinois

My husband ordered the hangar steak with fries. The steak was so tough that he would chew a bite then spit it out. My plank salmon was tasty but the mashed potatoes were so hard I had to cut them with a knife. Doubtful we'll return! read more

Amazing all around! We were impressed with the updated menu at a Peoria classic restaurant. We started with a couple of different appetizers, and they were great. The steak and salmon were perfectly prepared. Last, but not least, we had dessert which was out of this world. Kitchen was easy to work with for several special dietary needs too. We will be going back soon. read more

So...they claim not to be a stock hotel restaurant and yet they over promise and under deliver. I ordered the Salmon and it was over cooked on top of an underwhelming couscous with cherry tomatoes rather than the heirloom tomato's in the discrimination. They thought they would make that up with a 25% discount on the fish only! Don't subject yourself to this place! read more

Just ate here last night while in town fin business. I know it is a hotel restaurant but it was one of the few places I town that had something other than steak, burgers, and pizza. The place was pretty empty on a Monday at 6pm but that is expected. Now the review. I ordered the shrimp and grits with a side of Brussels sprouts. The shrimp and grits were on par. The sprouts started off okay but as I got further to the bottom there was some sort of honey or syrup at the bottom--not that it was terrible but I don't remember reading that in the description. Overall, pretty good given the small town and the fact it is in a hotel--which is why it is a little pricey. read more

Table 19 - Shrimp and Grits and brussel sprouts. Both very good! - New American Near Me - Peoria, Illinois

Staff was wonderful and food was fantastic. Would absolutely recommend! We came in late for lunch seating and the were full, but they made room for us without any problems. read more

Dinner was okay, the service wasn't great. I hate to rate this 3 stars, but 4 isn't quite right either. I'd rate it 3.5 if I could. The location is beautiful. The decor is modern, nice chairs, etc. Yes, this is in a hotel lobby, but it's pretty quiet and still somewhat private. The food was okay. It wasn't great but it wasn't horrible either. I got a crab roll. I saw some sushi on a table as we walked in and it looked beautiful. Indeed, it was pretty to look at but the roll was SO huge that it was difficult to fit in my mouth and it was ridiculous to handle. The taste was good but please, make it a bit smaller and easier to eat so I don't embarrass myself trying to fit the piece of sushi in my mouth. The salads were good, probably the best part of the meal. The caesar was delicious but I did find two pieces of pretty brown lettuce, that's easy enough to pick around. My table mates had a wedge salad and another had the pear and goat cheese-that one had some unexpected surprises like cranberries and figs (not listed on the menu). They were all good. The prime rib was cooked to the correct temperature, decent flavor. The side of brussel sprouts were good at first, but unfinishable because of the super sweetness of the very, very, thick syrup on the bottom of the pan they come in. All you could taste was sugar and it drowned the brussel sprouts and made them soggy. The top ones were great and crispy though. My biggest issue was the service. We waited and waited and waited to have our drink orders taken. We waited and waited and waited to have our dinner orders taken. Our drinks weren't refilled without asking (sodas, we weren't guzzling wine or anything). Our server seemed annoyed. Maybe it was a bad night, but it's not like it was busy. I don't know...I felt like I was bothering her. From someplace that looks so upscale, I expected the service to be better. read more

Seems like it could be a great place. Dinner and appetizer choices one the menu sounded good. Even had a few unique items . Unfortunately they seemed to fail in overall execution. We tried to make a reservation on line, but the site said they were booked the whole month. When we called they said they had plenty of openings, somthing was wrong with the web site. How does something like that go un noticed?? That will cost you a lot of buisness. So we made a reservation by phone. We arrive a week later to find out they did not have our reservation. Fortunately that was not a problem since we were the only ones there . Seems odd they were empty at 6pm on a Saturday, but then again their web page said they were booked all month and the lady taking reservations by phone seems to loose them. Even though all other tables were empty, it still took 20 min for them to get a table ready and figure out where to seat us. After being seated we got to meet our server. She was very nice and did a wonderful job. We odered some cocktails that were awesome. Then we placed our orders. 1hr later we finally got our food. Place was still empty, so not sure why the wait? I ordered the duck, which was overcooked and dry. But it did looked good, and the glaze was very good. If they cooked it right I'm sure it would have been great. Also had a side of pickled rhubarb that was really good. Excluding drinks, our bill still seemed high for what we got. We definitely won't be coming back. For that price I could go to many other restaurants who have better food and service. Overall The place looks great. Great drinks. Good dinner and appetizer option They need to work on : Making and keeping reservation Speeding up service Cook food properly Lower the prices read more

Ate dinner here after a long day of traveling. Pros: Modern decor that is clean, comfortable seating, dimmed lighting that really sets the mood. Good weight silverware and soft cloth dinner napkins. Fresh and delicious bread rolls served before dinner. Fresh vegetables that are cooked well. The chicken was moist and seasoned perfectly. The service was amazing and I was fortunate enough to get the kindest server I have ever had. Kudos! Cons: The water that is served in a glass decanter tastes like tap. The Alfredo sauce is bland and mediocre; I can make better sauce homemade with four ingredients. While I don't mind paying a little more for fresh food and great service, I think they have some work to be done before I would be willing to give it a second shot. They need to develop their flavor profiles a bit before they can charge the prices they do and expect to pack the house. IMHO calling themselves "fine dining" is a stretch. read more

To call Table 19 'upscale' is a total and complete misnomer. I had breakfast here while staying at the Marriott this week. I paid $16 for an over cooked omelet by s 'chef' who's work station & clothing were dirty. His attitude clearly shouted 'I don't want to be here'. I sat in a booth that had stained cushion backs. The only reason I'm giving 2 stars instead of 1 is because the waitress was good. read more

I previously posted an excellent review. Have since visited twice only to have horrible meals each time. Ordered burger and it was raw, chicken sandwich tasted like fish. Couldn't eat the burger and sent the chicken back. Hopefully they get their act together. I've stopped eating here after two failed meals. read more

Waited forever for a table. I ordered the All American Breakfast and asked if I could have a pancake instead of toast or muffin. The server told me no, the only way to get pancakes was to order them as a meal for $10. The place is very nice but the service left something to be desired. read more

Visiting from out of town and found this farm to table restaurant and loved it. Charred Brussel sprouts and cauliflower were out of this world! Heirloom tomato salad was good could def taste the freshness. Pretty simple salad though Didn't have time to eat a whole meal but I am sure to be back next time I'm in Peoria! Love farm to table and you can taste the freshness! Also eat mostly vegetarian diet and found many options here! read more

We are here in a hurry during our stay in the Pere Marquette Hotel for lunch. It seemed to be staffed lightly, which is fine but we had to wait for a few minutes to be noticed and then ask to be seated. I have a gluten allergy and when I asked if a few things were safe, the server's answer was an abrupt no. I'm not sure she knew or wanted to bother asking. Fine, I'm used to it. My husband ordered a salad and I got a burger with no bun. The food was ok, and that's being kind. Then the bill was almost $50. We only had tea and coffee with our meal. Way overpriced. They've completely redone the place and it's very modern and upscale feeling. I enjoyed that but the service felt like I was at Denny's. read more

One of the worst dining experiences I've ever had. We had a reservation for dinner on a Friday night, but it took 10 minutes to get us seated even though several tables were open. Then we waited 15 minutes before a server even showed up to take our drink order. Another 15 minutes before our drinks arrived and it was only because I went over to the bar to get them. Finally, the food. We waited for 45 minutes for two hamburgers. Hamburgers. They never arrived and we walked out. The service across the board was just awful. Avoid this place at all costs. Beautiful space, but it needs new management. read more

We had a reservation Saturday night and had one of the best meals we ever had in Peoria Started with a spectacular red wine and delicious hummus I had the braised beef and my husband had the duck. We loved every bite. Our waitress was Carrie and she gave wonderful service and answered questions about the menu. Ryan Cruz was the Manager and he stopped by several times to be sure everything was in order. We will be back again and soon! read more

Worst salmon and Brussels Sprouts I ever had! (French fries were good) Salmon couldn't be more dry and Sprouts couldn't be more burned. Service was ok. Even thought, I ask for a side of honey mustard and still waiting for it!. Bartenders never ask how my food was but they were very diligent and quick when I ask for the check. read more

A cut above the rest isn't just a slogan here, this may be the best cut of steak I've ever had in my life. A recent visit to Chicago with some friends had me at Chicago Cut, (one of Chicago's premium steak joints). I thought to myself while there "Why cant Peoria have something like this?" Well, we may have just gotten it. Table19 seems to have upgraded their beef to a more flavorful cut. This cut was grilled to perfection, with the inside juices that were full of flavor, miraculously held into the meat as I cut each bite. This steak was seriously one of the best I have EVER had. I would encourage anyone and everyone to check it out! read more

Restaurant atmosphere is very nice, clean, comfortable, but service is extremely slow and food just average! Menu choices limited also

I'm not sure why there is so much animosity towards this place. I've eaten here several times and the food has always been on par with comparable standalone restaurants. The decor is clean and fresh, and the staff are friendly. Food comes out quickly, as ordered - my Filet was well seasoned and cooked perfectly medium. A respectable selection of craft beer on tap and in bottles/cans, along with standard wine and liquor selections. This place isn't going to win any awards for excitement but I'm not sure it's trying to either. A very solid option if you are staying at the hotel and don't feel like venturing out. read more

Way too expensive and the portions are TINY! They had no vegan options for me so I had to basically just order lettuce and the waitress (old woman named Kaye) was extremely rude to me. They automatically added 20% gratuity which I was also upset about because I didn't believe the waitress deserved a tip at all. You'll definitely leave hungry because of the small portions. Save your money and eat somewhere else with actual food and good service. Never coming back here. read more

We arrived at 6 in order to have a leisurely dinner and go to a play at 8. The waitress was very non-communicative and by 7 p.m. we had only received our pre-dinner drinks and the appetizer which had a piece of metal in it we never got our food and had to walk out at 7:30 with no dinner. I would not recommend or go to this restaurant again read more

Disorganized, slow, out of food. Arrived for breakfast. We were acknowledged and told it would be a minute to clear a table. It was 15 and there were empty tables. Once arriving at the "buffet" we realized the eggs, yogurt and fruit were all gone. Nothing like bacon and coffee for breakfast. read more

Restaurant was empty at 6:15pm on a Friday night before a State Cheerleading competition. Should have been a dead giveaway as the hotels were booked solid. Two are connected directly to the restaurant. Waitstaff was very good. Food was very bland, expensive, and for the most part was clearly frozen/heated. Confirmed as I was roughly midway through my side of fries, several were unusually cold. Pleased with the Brussel Sprouts. Mashed potatoes were good but needed more flavor. Salmon bland. Burger bottom bun was soaked making it a mess to eat. Also bland. Biggest disappointment was the key lime pie. Tasted like bland key lime cheesecake. read more

Apparently I'm a glutton for punishment! Nothing has changed in this beautiful location in terms of service or food which is one of the biggest crimes in Peoria (and we have a lot!). Decided to give breakfast a try and was told they just had the brunch buffet for $17 or their lunch menu available. We decided to go for the buffet, thinking it would be the quicker of the two options. We ordered mimosas and then went up to the buffet. It was pretty old already despite it sounding like it had just started. One single slice of bacon remained and none was ever replenished *tear* but there was tons of sausage, silver dollar pancakes, scrambled eggs, tater tots, beef stroganoff and carrots. There was also a yogurt, granola & fruit section and an oatmeal section. I ordered a fresh made omelet and got some pancakes and sausage in the meantime. My date got eggs, sausage and tots. We got back to our table and still not mimosas nor any water. My date couldn't even finish the eggs they were so bad and the pancakes were pretty rubbery. Everything could've been about 20 degrees hotter. We finished those plates, still nothing to drink. We flagged another waiter to ask for water. My omelet came, my date went back for more punishment, I mean food. The omelet was delicious, hot fresh with tasty ingredients. My date returns with his second plate and the mimosas FINALLY appear. I guess the OJ was fresh squeezed by hand which is good since the glass was 90% OJ. The waitress picked up our plates one more time and brought the check, $60 for two buffets and two mimosas so that was an extremely expensive mistake! She never came back for the check and we were over ready to make our final exit from this disaster so we had to go find her. I think she was the only bartender for the restaurant but then why was she also serving?! Seriously some of the worst tasting food and service I've ever had. You will get better treatment at Golden Corral. Why is this place such a waste?!?! read more

Two stars because the Manhattan was good. The food is lack luster. I started with the french onion soup, the bowl was little more than a demitasse cup. The soup itself was salty, and didn't have many onions in it. For an entree I had the filet. It was cooked properly temperature wise to medium rare, but it must of been sous vide cooking, there were light grill marks on the steak but there was no real char. I had sauteed spinach which was over salted, and the brussel sprouts, which were oddly sweet, something I'd like to know when ordering a charred vegetable. read more

Ate here tonight for a work event. Usually when we have these dinners servers bust their butts since drug reps are paying for the meal and space; not this waitress. Literally the worst service I've ever seen. I've had better service at McDonalds. She was rude, inconciderate, inattentive and daft. Brought out my steak and I didn't get it eat it for ~20 minutes because I wasn't given a steak knife. Couldn't cut it with a butter knife so I just sat there....waiting...waiting...until I FINALLY got to eat my steak and it was cold. Everytime anyone at out table asked for something it was, "it's gonna be a minute," or, "you need to wait." Apparently "a minute" in table 19 speak is a half hour. At the end of the dinner I still didn't have my glass of wine I ordered 30 minutes prior, and when I asked my server she stated she couldn't bring it to me because our pharma rep had just closed out. I informed her that I had ordered a half hour ago but she kept arguing with me stating that the rep had closed out. Finally she caved unreluctely and brought me a glass of wine (which ended up being the wrong kind and I'm fairly sure there was probably spit in it). Spoke to my coworkers and they all had similar experiences during this dinner with rudeness, lack of attentiveness and poor timing of food/drinks coming out. Needless to say we will NOT be recommending this place again for our dinners which is a shame because they stand to earn ALOT of money from each one (and the food was good). read more

I waited 45 minutes for service before I went to sit at the bar to get dinner. Twice I went to the bar to see if I could order with them and was told to have a seat, Mike would be with me shortly. Anytime a waitstaff was walking by they would not even give me any kind of eye contact. After I say at the bar and got my dinner, the raclette mushrooms were not good quality mushrooms plus they were so big the cheese barely got on any mushrooms. The burger was nearly overdone. I did not want the lettuce, tomato & onion on it but they put it on anyways. Fries were nothing special. Just not a place I would recommend. read more

Amazing food in a downtown Peoria oasis. I really enjoyed the roasted chicken with corn succotash. The portion was truly mid-west hearty size! read more

This is third time eating here, and third time I'm told that they ran out of entree that we ordered. Shouldn't the waitress know what's in stock before taking orders???? Though food is usually good, they could definitely work on their service. read more

Nice atmosphere. Went again and this time they had no dessert offerings on their buffet and much less of a selection. So disappointing because we raved and took guests then they barely ate because the selection was so minimal. read more
