Buona Beef Restaurant

After my first run in with Buona Beef, I was hesitant to give them a second chance. However, seeing as we are now new neighbors since I have recently moved to Hoffman Estates, their location was extremely convenient for a 9PM food run on a Sunday.

I ordered the turkey club panini... it was large and in charge and filled with delicious amounts of meats and veggies. The sauce they use in the panini was very flavorful.

However, the other items were slightly less than average. I ordered the pasta salad and instantly remembered why I wasn't a fan. The noodles had a weird flavor, and the dressing was tart. The fries did not seem fresh since they had no crisp to the bite.

I would try them again for their burgers or other sandwiches.

Great beef sandwiches and the best combos around bar none!

I'll give this place a nod over their store that I typically visit on North Ave in Oak Park. Nice ambiance for a fast food place and it seemed to be setup in a way that was very organized.

Had a 10" combo, fries and a drink for $10 - OK price I guess. I do feel that Portillo's Italian Sausage might have a little more flavor to it though.

The place is close to a food pantry where I volunteer, so I'm sure I'll be back. Overall, pretty good.
