Met up with Friends from church who has great things to say about the food! It was recommended to have the Strawberry Avocado Salad (sounds amazing 😋) but I went with desert since I just came from dinner. Had the Peanut Butter Cup Milkshake... and it was DELICIOUS!!! Love the pieces of PB Cups at the bottom 🥰 This location also has a partnership with Rainbow Ice Cream. Had some of my friend's banana split. It was ok. Not better than my milkshake! Next time I'll definitely try the salad. Its been a few years since I've been to Buona Beef. I like the variety of the menu!

Their beef is better than across the street. I think it's the au jus. Be careful when ordering, bigger sandwiches and extras can bring your total to near $12. December 8th I ordered from drive through. See attached picture. Beef was definitely from bottom of container...small/crumbly/dark pieces with a definite taste of "been sitting here at the bottom of the container waiting for you to order" taste. I also ordered sweet peppers, of which you can see exactly 2 on the beef. Probably paid a dollar for those. Food when ordering from outside is definitely an issue. I am always completely satisfied when I order and eat inside. Drive thru is a completely different quality and quantity. Compare the pictures. Tell me I'm not right.

Ordered online, went into drive-thru to pick up and only 1 employee was taking orders on the 2 different order screens! Why have 2 screens if you only have 1 order taker?!? Finally got to the window and the food was cold, ordered the fries extra crispy and they weren't, waited another few more minutes and they gave us fresh fries. Got home and found that my wife's pizza barely had pepperoni on it when she actually ordered extra pepperoni. My Italian beef pizza was missing the beef! We were on hold for more than 10 minutes waiting to get a manager on the phone to explain the issue. We have a credit for our next order so I'll give this place 1 more chance. If you choose to go here, double check ALL of your order!

Buona at Harwwod Hts has terrible customer service. I am close to work and sometimes for lunch, I order something, drive thru. There is always a problem with the order. Today I decided to write to warn my customers against errors and the lack of serviceability. I ordered beef 10 "with extra beef, Mild, Mozz, extra beef and pepper and I got 7". When I opened the sandwich, I found a sausage hidden under a small amount of beef. Of course, I didn't notice the peppers I ordered as a side dish. This is not the first time you order and you will get a completely different order. Please do not order and if so, check after receipt if it is what you have paid for.

December 9th 2021 I purchased 2 $25.00 gift cards and got 2 free $5.00 gift cards. On January 3rd Cook County President Toni Preckwinkle mandates no indoor dining for the unvaccinated. On January 12th I used 1 $5.00 gift card and ate outside in the cold order IDAAAPBKKQACBN. The weather very cold and windy from January until now. I had 1 remaining $5.00 and the mandate was lifted February 28th. I went back to Buona on March 4th. They would not honor the card that February 28th. The cashiers name was Alexis. The female manager at the time has no customer relation skills and no human compassion. I will not purchase any gift cards next December.
