Top Schaumburg destinations | Metromix Chicago

We all love to hate on Schaumburg for it's corporate culture and cookie-cutter chain restaurants on every corner. But let's face it: It's ridiculous high density of spots to shop, snack and imbibe is insanely impressive. Here's a few of our favorites -- the best of the chains and a few indies -- The Cheesecake Factory not included.

Heat Nightclub

Heat Nightclub

616 E. Golf Road - Schaumburg
847-592-5959

Everyone in Schaumburg has an opinion about The Bamboo Room: They either loved it or they hated it. The entire space has been gutted -- goodbye tiki tchotchkes -- and revamped to make way for new nightclub Heat.

John Barleycorn

1100 American Lane - Schaumburg
847-619-5540

This suburban outpost of John Barleycorn can only be described as huge.

Entourage on American Lane

This spot, across from Woodfield Mall, serves "American classic cuisine" like oversized burgers, seafood, and steaks.

Pastas and a variety of Italian specialties fill the bill of fare at this suburban eatery.

Houlihan's

1901 E. Golf Rd. - Schaumburg
847-605-0002

Yes, it's officially a chain, but we love the way Houlihan's has revamped its look and menu. The cocktails and contemporary American eats are worth a second look.

Todai Chicago

5 Woodfield Mall - Schaumburg
847-619-1088

Sushi lovers and monstrous appetites be warned--this 160-foot all-you-can-eat sushi/Japanese buffet takes no prisoners. It features 40 types of sushi, plus hot dishes, desserts and fruit. Options include snow crab legs, scallops, sashimi and green tea cheesecake.

Bonefish Grill

Made-from-scratch Greek favorites come from the kitchen to the table at this Schaumburg taverna.
