Just across the street is a legendary crab house known as Bob Chinn's. I have never been to Bob Chinn's. Why have I never been to Bob Chinn's? Because there is always a line at Bob Chinn's that seems to stretch longer than a line waiting to get onto a ride at Great America.
If the place across the street is packed I suggest you take a walk to this classy, quiet place. I love the food here. What's more, I love the non-seafood here. I get the lamb chops when I go here and I have never been disappointed.
There menu is excellent, the crab delicious and the selection of seafood extensive. It's a quieter, fancier place than Bob's appears to be. It's kind of hidden within the shadows of Bob Chinn's, but it's worth finding.
Try it out, no lines, great crab.
