That would be Han's Bavarian Lodge.  I haven't eaten there mostly because it's out of the way (and when I am out that way I'm usually with friends who are interested in other cuisines), but I've heard casually that Han's is good.  Milwaukee more or less near Dundee, I think, which would be Wheeling.

 Hans' is north of Lake Cook road, south of Deerfield road on Milwaukee...
 usually quite busy... but certainly well liked...
