Evanston stir-fry concept restaurant where you pick top-quality fresh food from the buffet, take it to the cooks (who do the grilling for you), and it's delivered back to your table. All you can eat for $13.99. It's potentially health-conscious, pretty economical (especially at lunch!), and if you don't like your meal, it's your fault. They also have a full bar, if you happen to get thirsty.

Average cost: $10-$20
