PEORIA Things will be out of rhythm for a while at a Downtown Peoria restaurant.
Rhythm Kitchen Music Cafe is to be closed through at least April 20, according to a post Wednesday on the establishment s Facebook page.
Last week, the restaurant at 305 SW Water St. announced it was closing temporarily to allow its staff to be tested for COVID-19. The closure came in response to a virus exposure that did not take place on the premises.
The most recent Facebook post did not specify if any positive tests were gleaned as a result. It s been a hard year for the restaurant business and we will need y all more than ever on the other side of this, Rhythm Kitchen owner Julie Maag posted.

PEORIA A COVID-19 exposure has led another Peoria restaurant to close temporarily.
Rhythm Kitchen Music Cafe, 305 SW Water Street in Peoria, announced Friday it s allowing its staff to be tested for COVID after an exposure that did not take place on the premises. Unfortunately, after making it a full year without exposure, one of our employees has come into contact with a Covid positive individual outside of the restaurant. We have decided to err on the side of caution and close until all of our employees have been tested, a post on the restaurant s Facebook page stated. We put the safety of our customers, employees and their families first above all! Thank you for your support. We will update with hours as soon as we have more information.
