Welcome

My favorite restaurant in Peoria! We always come here for any special occasion. My loves are the lemon-basil martini and the cinghiale! The Frank Sinatra playing in the background always gives a romantic feel to the air. It’s a beautiful place!

This was our first time dining at Connected. We went with friends and were pleasantly surprised by the atmosphere and decor of the restaurant…it was beautifully decorated! The service and food were top-notch! My husband had a pasta dish and I had the sea bass with shrimp risotto. Our friends had pasta and the salmon special. All the entrees were prepared to perfection! This place may be our new favorite!

Connected My wife and I dined at Connected to celebrate our 20th Anniversary. Start to finish, the evening was spectacular. From the outside, you wouldn’t think much of Connected; it is in run-down part of the city, but you can’t judge a book by its cover. Inside, it is an intimate setting with a friendly, welcoming staff. First we enjoyed the bread with eggplant spread, a mixed green salad with light vinaigrette, feta cheese, and finely chopped walnuts. For entrees, my wife enjoyed the Chilean Sea Bass with risotto, and I had the Filet Mignon with onion and mushroom sauce. Both dinners were delicious! Our waitress “team” was highly attentive and even lit a small tabletop sparkler in celebration of our anniversary. We look forward to our next trip.

Loved, loved, loved Connected! From the minute we walked in to the minute we walked out, the staff was attentive. The atmosphere and food were great. We loved the entire experience and can’t wait to go back!!!
