Decent lunch place near Schaumburg / Elk Grove Village?

Hi folks,
I plan to meet someone for lunch approximately half way between Winfield and Lincolnshire on Monday. Can anyone suggest some place to grab a bite? I'm not looking for anything fancy (not that kind of date. ) - just good food and not necessarily a lot of it. Suggestions wold be welcome!

thanks,
hank

I know it's a chain, but I like Big Bowl (Thai/Asian) located in the Streets of Woodfield. Not many Mom and Pops in the Schaumburg area. Champps on Golf Rd. serves a decent lunch as well.

1) Ramen Misoya

4) Sankalp (South Indian)
167 W Golf Rd, Schaumburg

5) Ramen Santouka (In Mitsuwa Market)
100 E Algonquin Rd, Arlington Heights

Add to Pigmon's excellent list

Penang
1720 W Algonquin Rd
Arlington Heights, IL 60005
(847) 222-1888

About 15 minutes east of the others

Boston Fish Market
1225 Forest Ave
Des Plaines, IL 60018

If you're looking for bar and grille stuff there's Stonewood Ale House. I haven't tried Zeal yet but the menu at least looks interesting. Tokio Pub is attached to Shaws Crab House. Another one that I haven't gotten to.

Chef Ping scores over my other usual asian possibilities. Bistro Dragon and Crazy Buffet are off of Biesterfield. Pings can have a 10-15 minute wait if your timing is unfortunate. Asian Bistro is in the neighborhood of Pings and Penang though I still haven't gotten there. Sake Sushi and Grill is pretty good. It's near Golf and Plum Grove.

Just as an aside there's a Northwest Restaurant Week starting 2/20. Some restaurants are serving lunch.

I have several "go to" places where I lunch regularly in that area, places with excellent food and are nice places to relax and chat:

Taste of Thai
1029 W Golf Rd
Hoffman Estates, IL 60169
(847) 490-9994

Salsa 17
17 W Campbell St
Arlington Heights, IL 60005
(847) 590-1122

Lou Malnati's Pizzeria
1050 E Higgins Rd
Elk Grove Village, IL 60007
(847) 439-2000
Keep in mind that you can phone in your pizza order and they'll have it ready when you get there, if you don't want to wait 30+ minutes while seated for them to bake you a deep-dish.

There's also the excellent Shaw's Crab House, right next to the previously-mentioned Big Bowl in Streets of Woodfield, but it's more upscale and pricey, probably not what you're looking for.

Thank you for the suggestions. We're going to meet at Salsa 17.
