Chuck's Steak House,

10 Prospect Street (facing Route 20) Auburn, (508) 832-2553.

Steaks, ribs, and chops are the mainstay at Chuck's, but seafood is almost as plentiful. Portions are large, the prices reasonable, and the cooking top-notch " with consistent quality as important as creativity. Service is knowledgeable, attentive, and cordial amidst an friendly, warm setting. Great for dates or dinners with friends.

Full review.

Price Range: $10 - $19.
