This North Suburbs chophouse is located on the grounds of the Schaumburg Golf Club. It's less expensive than you'd expect given the location: an eight-ounce center-cut pork chop (with the requisite side of apple sauce) costs about $10 and filet mignon medallions run about $16. The menu features dishes like honey-chipotle barbecue pork chops, Cajun chicken, asiago pasta and German dishes such as schnitzel served with spatzle, braised red cabbage and potato pancakes.

Daily specials include the four-buck burger on Wednesdays, a full slab of barbecue ribs on Thursdays for $13.99, an all-you-can-eat $9.99 fish fry on Fridays and half-price select bottles of wine on Saturdays.

Average cost: $10-$20
