Jonah's Seafood House, 2601 Oyster Bar, and Market & Bake Shop

I had an incredible meal at Jonah’s Seafood House and 2601 Oyster Bar. The seafood is top-notch, especially the calamari and the fresh oysters. The service was friendly, attentive, and made us feel right at home. I also enjoyed browsing the market for fresh catches and grabbing a pastry from the bake shop afterward. Definitely a place I’ll return to whenever I’m craving fresh, well-prepared seafood.

Jonah's Seafood House in Peoria is a wonderful riverside seafood restaurant. The Oyster Bar, and Market & Bake Shop next door, are interesting places as well, but this is the crown jewel. The service was second to none, from the hostess/manager Angie, to my delightful waitress Macy. The view of the Illinois River augmented a warm but comfortably rustic setting. I started with an Espresso Martini — 360 Vanilla, Kahlua, Tia, Espresso & Cream with three delicious coffee beans on top.

Florida grouper…yes, please!!! This was a spectacular dish! The crab dip was wonderful! Our waitress was super kind and very attentive but not overly attentive. The vibe of the whole building was very cools! If we ever make it back to Peoria, we will definitely dine here again!

Jonah’s! It’s the quality that sets this place apart from other seafood spots. The Blackened Cod? Absolutely buttery — it melts in your mouth. And no matter what side you choose, you can’t go wrong. The King Ora Salmon was some of the most delicate, perfectly cooked salmon I’ve ever had. Honestly, it didn’t even need seasoning, but the extra flavor brought it to the next level. Do yourself a favor and give this place a stop!

Got to the location a bit early so walked around and enjoyed the scenery. Once open we were seated in a good Iocation with a good view. Our server was great and paid attention to our table as well as the others. Our food was fantastic and quickly served. I had oysters Rockefeller and my spouse had ahi tuna tacos. Everything was wonderful. Would definitely go back. And then after we stopped by the market and grabbed a couple of things to take back with us!
