Buona - Algonquin

Order a variety of different items to try this place out. Everything was delicious, expect the fries and the chicken Parmesan sandwich. The fries tasted old, and the parm sandwich wasn’t a “fan” favorite. I was a little disappointed with their delivery, I received it as pictured. There was no cover to show if someone had broken it or taken anything out. Overall, their Italian beef was great and the burgers were fresh.

Had dinner at the Algonquin location tonight. Very nice atmosphere; I liked the decor, and the restaurant was brightly lit and clean. Staff was friendly. Tried the Meatball and Sausage Protein Bowl. The sausage was spicy, the meatballs were very nicely textured and very tasty. The marinara was thick (not at all runny) and delicious. Everything in the bowl was fresh. Good size portion. I will definitely be back!

This restaurant gives a refreshing positive look at how staff should be trained and handle their job. We are regular patrons of Buona's and enjoy their food- everything from the famous beefs (my favorite is the beef & sausage bowl!) to salads. But what prompted this review is the tremendous service provided by the team at Buona- from the register to the kitchen to the young man that bagged and presented our order they were smiling, attentive and appeared happy to be doing their job and happy that we chose their restaurant. Restaurant work is a tough gig and finding people that so clearly know how to do it right and seem to enjoy it gives me respect for both them and for the management team that hired and trained them. Well done !

Highly recommend coming here! Cashier very knowledgeable about the menu and explained different ways the beef comes, dipped, baptized, etc. Delicious food. Quick and accurate service. Polite employees. Clean restaurant. Clean bathrooms. Managers present and checking on customers. The ambience and atmosphere is great! Not too loud. Very hard working employees everyone looks busy, no one is just standing around, GREAT EXPERIENCE!

Buona’s Chicken and Avocado Power bowl is absolutely delicious and healthy! This is a must try! The quality, serving size, and temperature of the food, exceeds all expectations! Fresh and made to order. Manager Dave and his team provide outstanding customer service! I highly recommend Buona in Algonquin.

I’ve been to a few different buona locations and the Algonquin one is my favorite. Food is always fresh and hot and the burgers on Wednesday are always cooked perfectly. Tried the chopped salad today and it’s a winner. I’ll be ordering that again. People are friendly at Algonquin also and someone always asks if everything is good. I like that.
