A shuttered eatery on Wheeling s Restaurant Row may not be out of commission for much longer.
The owners of Yu s Mandarin, which has locations in Schaumburg and Vernon Hills, plan to open a third restaurant with that name in the former Golden Chef at 600 S. Milwaukee Ave.

Hong plans to renovate the exterior and interior of the building. It will be modern but have Asian design elements, he said.
