Jim's Bistro

Jim's Bistro at 4612 North Prospect Road in Peoria Heights is a great addition to the area.
I've been in several times for lunch. After I tried the beefeater sandwich, I've had a hard time trying anything else. But everyone I've eaten with loves their meal choices, as well.
Give the bistro a try for lunch or dinner, and the bonus is a nice walk through the Heights where you can do some window shopping. A lot of great shops have sprung up lately.
