Restaurants

Don't assume that a small town in the Midwest can't satiate your urban or international tastes. Elk Grove Village is so close to Chicago that you can taste the Windy City's influences in its local cuisine. Nowhere is this more evident than the city's branch of Lou Malnati's Pizzeria, with deep dish pizza that's just as authentic as what you'll find in the city's original pizzeria.

If your palate's more global than that, Bistro Dragon has the best sushi in the suburbs. Kurumaya Japanese Kitchen is its upscale alternative, but the all-you-can-eat sushi bar isn't worth missing out on the takoyaki specials that its cooks whip up for diner. For a more European meal, try E.J. Pierogi, a family-owned Polish diner on Oakton Street. They live up to the name with pierogies in a variety of flavors, including sweet cheese, sauerkraut and mushroom, and plenty of meats.

Simpler tastes can be accommodated, too. Teddy's Diner is a longtime local institution, opening at 6 AM every single day to serve hearty breakfasts of home-cooked eggs, potatoes, pancakes, waffles, crepes, salads, and more. Rammy's SUB Contractors is your next best bet for American food; their selection of breads, meats, and cheeses puts all the national sub sandwich chains to shame.

Parks

The Village Green is a focal point of life in Elk Grove Village; right next door, you can pay your respects at the new Veteran's Memorial Park and water fountain. If the geysers that shoot up from the ground aren't big enough for your splashing needs, you can even take the whole family to the city's very own water park. Rainbow Falls is full of exciting aquatic rides, from the Calypso Twist slides to the Reptile River. The water park's wholesome, interactive appeal worked so well that Elk Grove Village also created the Pirates' Cove Children's Theme Park, with replica pirate ships, interactive climbing walls, a train ride, a castle playhouse, and paddle boat races.
