40 Best American Restaurants in Schaumburg

“Wonderful food and staff, our server Kristy was warm and attentive. Ask for her! Breakfast menu is expansive!“

“I haven't been here in years and it was as entertaining as I remembered! Our group had a couple of newbies and they loved it as well! The baby dragon (half of a rotisserie chicken), dragon's egg (half of a baked potato), dragon's tail ( half an ear of corn) were all delicious and cooked to perfection. Adult beverages are pricey but they come in a cup that you keep and you'll get a discount on refills. Great horsemanship and falconer skills rounded out dinner and a show! Guaranteed for all ages to be a great time had by all!“

“Great place to visit with family, or for date night. Love the food and atmosphere!“

“Tyler C was our server… he suggested their chicken tenders and they did not disappoint!! Absolutely amazing service and quality! Our food came out in minutes… it was hot and delicious!!“

“I hadn’t been here in a while but after our most recent experience I’ll be going more often. Went for our anniversary dinner. Booked reservations thru Open Table, arrived early and got seated right away in a cozy booth in the bar. There was a card and Anniversary placard waiting for us on the table. We were offered complimentary champagne to toast right away which was delicious. Our server Susan was outstanding and all the food was exceptional. We split a wine flight - loved them all! The pacing was terrific we didn’t have to wait long for anything but we never felt rushed. We went all out for the special occasion with soup, a starter, entrees, sides and desserts but would choose more affordable happy hour options to go more frequently. The menu changes four times a year (with the seasons) and all the calorie counts are kept low for the entrees which I love.“

“One of the next vegan burgers I've had. And they played black Sabbath the whole time. RIP Ozzy!“

“Glad you’re changing to Coke products. My family of 5, prefer coke over Pepsi. Pepsi is too sweet.“

“Muy buenos cocineros y la mejor comida del mundo“

“Amazing service with extensive wine listing and delicious menu. Got to try the 7-finger pork chop.“

“Within the Holiday Inn, the Outlook Bar & Grill is a real surprise! The breakfast is a standard fare but good, fast, and the hospitality is very pleasant. Dinner time it really shines; Heidi the cook does a fantastic BBQ Bacon & Cheddar burger that tastes as good as it sounds. I don't drink, but it is a Bar & Grill with beer on tap and in the bottle. It is a reflection of the rest of the Holiday Inn in Schaumburg, IL, which has been a fantastic experience.

The menu is a bit limited, however as good as it is it isn't worth ordering take out or going out to eat. Good food, fair price!“

“I am so grateful for such great service here! I have my go-to’s but I’ve gotten to try sandwiches, soup, pasta, salads, cookies, and everything has always been super tasty! Because of that, I have started getting food to-go from here whenever I can. Be it through DD or in person ordering, they get it right EVERY time which sadly can’t be said very often anymore. Everyone is super helpful and courteous too. Only great things to say all around and I hope you guys keep up the great work you’re doing! :)“

“This was my first time visiting this place. I must say, The customer service, food, and atmosphere was way above what I was expecting. I usually do not like custard ice cream(I have tried 4 places before here), my partner said just try it. But before we finished our food, I was given a sample and I loved it. I don't know what they do differently. But it was excellent. I'm definitely making sure when I visit again this Culver's will be my first stop for food.“

“Great food and staff. Clean.“

“Friendly, Cozy, old fashioned family diner, breakfast , Lunch + diner… hard to find restaurants like this !! Good FOOD !!!“

“Just had my dad’s surprise party here and everything was perfect from the staff to the food to the atmosphere. Honestly recommend them 10000%! Everything was perfect! Will be requesting the serving staff we had for future events.“

“The food was good. Lots of options with sauces. Be informed when you order. Lol. Came on a Saturday night and it was crowded and extremely loud. Sound was bouncing everywhere. I felt bad for the staff with all the chaos in the dining area. It is mostly 16-20 year olds when we were there. But families with babies, too.
I had the tender sandwich and fries. The sandwich was much bigger than I expected. Lots of pickles and kale slaw cut the heat.
Husband ordered Dave's trio. Sliders were mini, golf ball sized. He liked the mozz rectangles. Then chicken bites. He could have gotten a different sauce on each item, but did not.
We liked the food but felt overwhelmed with the crowds by the end. Lol. Our age is showing, I guess.“

“Reasonably priced , good quality food“

“My wife and I started eating at Original Pancake House in Honolulu in 1979 or 1980. The first thing I ordered was the 49er Ooey Gooey Thin and Chewy Pancakes with the Homemade Tropical sauce. (I lost my Beautiful Wife the early morning hours after Christmas 2025, so my son and I are visiting my sister and my brother-in-law in Chicago.)
Today, my taste buds thought they were getting that first ever plate of those Wonderful Pancakes! Three plate sized thin, Ooey and Gooey pancakes to make your mouth desire them every morning!
We also shared the Apple Jack (another OPH specialty).
We have enjoyed the Walker Brothers Original Pancake House when we come back to Chicago and I think this was my best experience yet!
Thank you Walker Brothers Original Pancake House.“

“very good food & service. first time here high recommendation and absolutely back for sure.“

“Great food and waitress was great! Came in for lunch Monday morning! Will definitely be back!“

“Had my daughter’s baby shower here and it was fantastic. The food was delicious and the staff were so attentive. Would come again!“

“We arrived a bit early of our reservation (4:35 for 5:00 reservation). The restaurant was mostly empty but they searched for over 5 minutes to finally seat us. That is a bit long when finding a table in a virtually empty restaurant. Even if staffing is an issue. Never at any other restaurant have we ever been made to wait for a table that is available. Very disappointed with Red Lobster's seating policy. This happened to us once before at this same restaurant where we were denied seating. Food was good, service was good,“

“Absolutely one of my favorite places I. The suburbs. Their food is next level and great atmosphere.“

“Great place to watch the Brewers playoff game while in the Chicago area. Great customer service.“

“We had so much food! It was great, the best fillet ever and stuff mushrooms. We celebrate a birthday and receive ice cream , they sang HBD for us.
Best drinks ever (passion-dragonfruit margarita) 🎊🥳🎉“

“Was out running errands with a friend and had a hankering for some French fries. We decided to check out Brandy's. First thing I noticed is the place was clean. The menu took me back to our high school days of sneaking off campus to get a gyro because the cafeteria food was, well, cafeteria food. I enjoyed my fresh hot, crispy fries, fish sandwich and icy drink. My friend ordered a burger and fries and she was also satisfied. Prices are reasonable considering the increases everywhere. The lady who took our order was pleasant. It was a quiet time of day, in between lunch/dinner so we were able to have a conversation. If you're hankering for a gyro, burger, etc, you won't be disappointed. Oh, and the bathroom was also very clean.“

“They support live music entertainment!“

“I’ve been to hooters all over the world and being from FL where it all started this is the best hooters I’ve been to besides my hometown in Bradenton,FL the wings are perfect just like home! The Service is fantastic 🤌🏻⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🇺🇸“

“Came with a large group, not too long wait on a Sunday at 5. Food was good, one dinner was smaller than the same had at another location lunch special. Steak came not as ordered, had to remake but it was comp'd. Loved the Korean BBQ cauliflower 😋 Red velvet and tiramisu cheesecakes were delish❣“

“I ordered the half Roasted Herb Chicken and it was the best I have had. Along with garlic mashed potatoes. Wish I had the recipe!“

“Came here with a few of my friends and this might be our new favorite spot… our server Emily did an amazing job taking our order, she was patient, paid total attention to what we said, and helped us with a few questions. Although, the restaurant was crowded (which I don’t really enjoy sometimes), she made our experience worthwhile.“

“Well that was the messiest, tastiest 15 minutes of my life! Those BBQ chicken wings served at the bar were beyond excellent.
The bar staff here are very helpful, friendly and funny. Service is brisk! A very enjoyable experience, one that i want to repeat. We'll done!“

“The food was so amazing, as well as our server Hally! Such a sweet person. Absolutely loved the Turkey Overlake and my friend absolutely devoured the Bison Burger saying it was the best burger she ever had. Thank you!!“

“We celebrated my grandson's birthday here and it was awesome! Manager Casey Fitzpatrick and his staff were great. The food was great, the atmosphere was great and our server, Rob was amazing! Five stars, highly recommend!!!“

“friendly staff and food was great and fast“

“Great Happy Hour Specials and all day drink specials every day, Their Half price cheeseburger on weekends from 4-6 can’t be beat“

“It has a very simple menu that packs a lot of flavor to the meal... Mmmmmmmm😋👍🏼 This was our first time, but not to be our last. We traveled about 1 hour and 40 minutes to discover I want this in my life. The buns were so good, & that cheese sauce...Mmmmmm😋👍🏼“

“We had a large group and they did a great job of keeping everyone happy. We ate, drank, and did a lot of talking. It was a Friday night and we almost had the place to ourselves. The food was terrific, service was very good, and it was quiet enough that we were able to talk from one end of the table to the other. They had cherry cobbler that was fantastic with ice cream on top. They had patio seating with a nice view from the 2nd floor.“

“It was date night! But so good!“

“Muy rica todo y sirven muy rápido“
