Just because it's the suburbs doesn't mean that good food doesn't exist. There are some real diamonds in the rough (the rough being Applebee's, Houlihan's, Chili's, etc.). Pappadeaux is one such place that's a real treasure. I used to go to the location in Schaumburg frequently with the fam, and it was one of our favorite places to go for family dinner. Then it inexplicably closed. So sad. But there's still one in Westmont, less than 10 minutes away from Oakbrook Mall! So happy. The food is consistently good and the seafood is always fresh. Please do yourself a favor and go here. Oh, and if you're debating between this and Bob Chinn's Crab House...go to Pappadeaux.
