Reviews Little Missy Cafe

This place is amazing! Fresh yummy food including daily made desserts, rolls and pies. All the servers were so nice and knew everyone by name. It's a small town feel and we will be back soon.

Wow! Great fried chicken! The coating was so crispy and light. I'm craving it again! Update: We went back 3 days later and found out the chicken was the special for the day. The first time we were there, I saw the sign about appetizer specials, so this time, we decided to try the "sampler.". I should have listened when the wonderful waitress asked if we just wanted the chicken ala-carte, but I told her, " No, we'll take it all!". Lol. Check out the size of that sampler! I wish I'd taken a picture with our hand in it so you could see exactly how HUGE that thing was! Lol. Needless to say, our whole chicken dinner went into to-go containers because we couldn't resist all those fried goodies. The chicken had to come home with us, where I hope it will be half as good as it would have been had we eaten it fresh! (Which is ten times better than I could EVER make at home!) Do yourself a favor and try out this little "Diamond in the Rough" place. By the way, the "regulars who were in there both times we went, made sure to tell us to try the tenderloin and the meatloaf. Maybe next time...after I get my fill of that chicken!

First time I had visited this restaurant in Pekin. They seem to be a local favorite and have made it through this covid virus issue. Good to see small businesses like this survive. It's a down to earth restaurant and if you are looking for fancy and you turn your nose up at common you wouldn't be happy, but I was as happy as a lark! Their salad bar is small, but they make their own mac & cheese, potato salad, and coleslaw. They also make their own cinnamon rolls. All you can eat salad bar and soup for $6.99. I ordered the small hand made tenderloin sandwich and homemade fries. Best tenderloin I've ever eaten! The breading was devine and the meat succulent. They pound out the tenderloins themselves. I could hear someone doing this in the back while I was eating. They were pretty busy with pickup orders and a steady flow of inside dinning customers. Everyone was wearing masks. There is more room inside than what it looks like from outside. They have two dinning rooms. The guy that was seated at a table close to me with his wife looked like Gabby Hayes to me. This is meant as a compliment. All in all I was very pleased and I shall return God willing. Also of note is that they had slices of various pies for only a buck. What a deal. Give them a try if you want to bump elbows with the common guy and gal.

Big portions and so reasonably priced! Not much to look at but it's a diamond in the ruff for sure!
