   Fantastic meal. I had the king crab which was fresh and perfect. My other companions enjoyed the halibut and Hawaiian red snapper and both were extremely happy with the freshness and preparation. All around an excellent meal with excellent service!

   I’m writing from Indianapolis, IN, where I live, but I frequently visit family in Glenview—and no trip is complete without a stop at Bob’s. We dine there every couple of months, and I just wanted to share how much we truly enjoy the experience every time. The crab legs are, without a doubt, the best I’ve ever had—consistently fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. The portion sizes are just right, leaving us satisfied without feeling overwhelmed. What really sets Bob’s apart, though, is the staff. Everyone is friendly, knowledgeable, and brings a great sense of fun to the dining experience. The attentiveness and genuine effort to make each visit special have not gone unnoticed and are greatly appreciated. Thank you for consistently delivering excellent food and service. We’re already looking forward to our next visit. Nancy Sunshine Indianapolis, IN

   This is our first visit to this Bob Chinns. We used to go to the Lisle, IL restaurant. We were gladly surprised, because the food and service was excellent! . We missed it. We loved the food, value and service. We're happy to learn about this restaurant.

   As always Bob Chinns is a Chicago suburbs institution for seafood. Love everything about this place. I grew up in Miami and this place has reminds me of Miami/Ft. Lauderdale. My brother, from Miami was in town and loved it too.

   Food and service were excellent. King crab legs going to $150 is a huge disappointment though…
   

   Bob Chinn's Crabhouse - WheelingResponded 1 day ago

   Thank you, Jeffrey, for your kind words about the food and service—we’re glad to hear you had an excellent dining experience overall. We completely understand your concern regarding the pricing of the king crab legs. Market conditions, including limited availability and rising costs, have had a significant impact on seafood pricing across the board. That said, we remain committed to offering only the highest quality seafood available. We truly appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you back again soon.

    Used to go to Bob Chinns years ago for hockey tournament trips to Chicago. Loved it back then. Was just as great last night. Always great to see institutions that maintain what makes them special.
