Cornerstone would be 4 or 5 stars 20 years ago, but the bar has been raised by a lot of small modern cafes in these small farm towns. The inside of Cornerstone is dated and a bit spartan. The menu is simple diner food. The service is friendly and fast. I was disappointed that they did not serve real cream for our coffee. This is farm country, and serving artificial creamer seems wrong to me. I had scrambled eggs and sausage. The eggs were unseasoned, and the sausage was forgettable. Again, we have found many small town cafes within 20 miles that are raising the bar with better food and quality coffee. read more

Friendly staff. Most of the times that I dine at Cornerstone it is during the breakfast hour. Breakfast is served all day. A mix of tables and booths as well as a few counters seats. The menu offers a lot of "home cooking/comfort food" options. You can usually count your n seeing someone you know when you dine in. Carry out is an option too. read more

If you're looking for tater tots loaded with taco meat/taco toppings then this place is for you, check out the "Mexican Meat & Potatoes". What our table did NOT appreciate or order was the extremely rude remark one of the establishment owners, Donna, made to a guest at our table. Donna rudely suggested our friend order a "low fat" option. Donna's "suggestion" was unsolicited and insensitive. Our friend was embarrassed and hurt by Donna's remark. We won't be going back. read more

We stopped by here on our way home from our son's cross country meet in Peoria. So much nicer to stop here than some fast food restaurant. Very clean and casual atmosphere. Our server, Jillian, was super nice and attentive. I don't think I ever say the bottom of my drink glass. It was always being refilled. :-) My turkey club was delicious. My husband really enjoyed his country fried steak. We will definitely stop by again when we are in the area. read more

Good food, good service. Very nice restaurant. They have wonderful daily specials. It's a nice, friendly stop for any meal.

Decent breakfast place. Very local oriente but everyone was nice! We all had a decent breakfast. Nothing too special though.

Food is great and service was excellent! Christian atmosphere n very busy on Sunday. Would definitely recommend breakfast, lunch or dinners. Sundays they offer specials, broasted chicken on Sunday's n Meatloaf special on 1st Sunday. Both include salad bar. read more

Great food and great service. We went in for dinner the other night. Food was amazing, and our waitress Addison B. was the best! Such a great personality and full of smiles. Seemed like a hard worker. My food was made great and I enjoyed the stuffed green pepper soup. Very clean environment. We will definitely be back. read more

I got the Tenderloin and Okra and baked potato and it was EXCELLENT!! We are from Washington State but will definitely be back when we come visit. My mom got the horseshoe and it came loaded with cheese. My daughter got the kids spaghetti and the meat was melt in your mouth yummy. We live in Washington State and there is a certain specialness about food in the Midwest. Waitress was wonderful and the atmosphere homey and soothing. Such a wonderful little gem to find after our visit to Ronald Reagan's museum at Eureka College. read more

Cornerstone Family Restaurant - Tenderloin and Okra - New American Near Me - Eureka, Illinois

Easy going home town vibes, relaxed dining with plenty of room and outdoor seating too, menu is large and offers plenty to pick from even during the week for lunch, dropped in for my first time and sure will not be my last! My friend and I sampled the Double Bacon cheeseburger and Western omelet; major success, all tasted really good and was a good value as well. Our waitress was very polite tho a bit disappeared and we had to get up and get a box for ourselves. Didn't get us down at all, there's plenty on this menu alone to get me back. read more

Great good, servers are pleasant and efficient. Daily specials Broasted chicken is the best.

It's a diner so nothing fancy. Food is good and service is great. It's very clean and prices are very reasonable. For a small town diner this one is good to go. I love their tenderloin sandwich. It's one of the best around. read more

I have always loved going to Cornerstone! Husband used to bowl with the owners. Such wonderful people!! Food is wonderful...servers and speed are great also!!! read more

Excellent Broasted Chicken dinners. The chicken breast was perfectly moist and tender. I wonder if they go the extra step in their preparation to brine their chicken first. The service was smooth and very friendly. Full disclosure... this was not our first great experience w Cornerstone. This past summer they prepared two huge foil pans of their Broasted chicken for our family reunion picnic, on a Sunday, no less, their busiest chicken day of the week! Kudos to their amazing cook staff. Everyone loved your chicken! read more

They have great foods. They are very friendly and you don't wait forever for your food. I love the Cornerstone restaurant.

Excellent example of Midwest cooking! Lots of comfort food prepared and served exactly how you would expect. I'd come back weekly if I lived closer. Full menu, but not cluttered. Prices were way lower than I'd expected. Our waitress Jillian was friendly, attentive and just all around awesome. read more

Such a great breakfast. Clean cute restaurant with friendly waitresses. This is what you want a midwestern family diner breakfast to be. The hash browns are CRISPY and not overly greasy. The eggs were cooked perfectly over medium and the yolk poured into the breakfast bowl. If you're tired of going to diners looking for biscuit and gravy and tired of them tasting like spiceless milk gravy and flour ball biscuits then these are for you. They actually season the gravy like it should be. The biscuits are wonderful and fluffy. The French toast and pancakes were absolutely wonderful and full of flavor. This is our new spot. We will be back for sure. *the only minor complaint if I can even call it that was the coffee. It was FAR from the worst I've had but it not the best. I wish it was stronger for sure. Since moving to the Midwest we can't find diner coffee that is full flavored. It's such a personal preference so no stars taken off! This place is amazing. read more

We came for breakfast every thing was prepared very well cimanan rolls were good The service is great & friendly And very clean The drive was worth it read more

I came here on 2 different occasions, both times the same highschool girl was serving me and she was extremely rude. When I went to pick up my to go order she glared and grumbled at me. I get that it was a busy day but there was no need to be rude as I am supporting her job. She took my card without saying anything and then gave it back with no receipt so I was extremely confused. She eventually gave me a receipt to sign, but she mumbled "Sign here" in a very unkind tone. For a family restaurant I felt very unwelcomed in this space and I will not be coming back. The food was alright but with how rude the waitress is, I would rather go to the McDonald's drive through. read more

Was greeted by waitress at the door, said I could sit where I wanted. The place is very clean and well lit. Specials are written on a small white board towards the back of the seating area. My order came out very fast and was hot. My fried eggs were cooked perfectly and melted over my hash browns when I cut into them. I will definitely come here again in the future. read more

Place was pretty good food. Staff was friendly and met a nice gentleman that graduated from Eureka in 1951. I would go back here again for sure. read more

Great food! Service is above average, and all the waitresses seem great! Food is a little pricey for the area it is in.

I just LOVE this place!! I make it about once a week at least. The waitresses are awesome and when I come in and by the time I sit down they have my tea with 3 lemons ready for me! Love their homemade chicken salad, their sliced ham melt, their breakfasts are all excellent and anything you order will be good!!! Never had a bad meal here. read more

Nice little home town restaurant. Pleasantly decorated; nice place to dine at. Owners wife was our waitress. Great personality. Dined on the Pork Tenderloin sandwich, with okra and cole slaw. Very good. Delighted that they serve sweet tea. Definitely will return again! read more

I was so close to giving a 5 but had to mark down for a couple things. First off, great clean restaurant with plenty of seating and its just a nice relaxing place to eat with friendly waitresses. Not much on the walls for decor though but hey it's simple. The menu is large with a wide variety but i noticed some items were kind of higher than usual especially on breakfast and the fish dinners. But if the quality is there then it is worth it and it was! I ordered the Breakfast Bowl and it is a lot of food! The hashbrowns could have been cooked longer and the seasoning for the sausage gravy in both meals could have used more salt along with the hashbrowns. Dont get me wrong, the gravy atleast was homemade unlike most places. My bacon was 2 nice thick pieces that didnt shrink up to nothing and my english muffin was toasted as i asked...dark. So many places dont offer an english muffin or if they do its extra. My friend ordered the Farmers Bowl and said the biscuits in it was really fluffy and baked to a golden brown. He agreed with the lack of seasoning on both the potatoes and the sausage gravy but i guess thats why there are salt and pepper shakers on the table. I will be going back and anxious to try the tenderloin and broasted chicken. Stop in and try this place out...its a WINNER! read more

First time here, I appreciated genuine customer service from their staff and honestly felt 'at home' with the atmosphere there. Tenderloin sandwich basket was delicious, everything prepared well. Definitely curious to see how their breakfast is when I return in the future! read more

Food was good and the service was great. The waitress was very friendly and attentive. Great feel good atmosphere is a bonus.

Needs more homemade items rather than "out of the can." Very clean and basic. No real signature items and very minimalist atmosphere. Nice, safe choice--good for families because lots of menu choices. read more

I really like this place! Simple place, but the food is really good. I had the Walleye last night, perfectly breaded. They really know how to cook. I think it's definitely worth the trip from Peoria. read more
