Reviews For Buona - Hillside

Went back and ordered the beef and sausage bowl with vegan cheese and hot peppers. The cheese was not melted, my food was not even warm, and the amount of oil in here is insane. This was not worth 12 and they should stick to sandwiches as this was not a good healthy alternative.

I ordered delivery on easter Sunday at 1:20pm for three people. It got delivered rather quickly and sooner than expected at 1:45pm. It Not only was all of the food cooked well, but it was still hot and very good! It's been many years since I've had Buona, but this was definitely a lot better than I remember!

Outstanding everything! Recommend outside food runner wears a safety or reflective vest at night. Almost didn’t see her and area sorta dark. Just my .02! Thanks! P. S. Returned to Buona Beef on New Year's Day (2025) before returning home to Maryland and they were open! YAY! The black lady who took order was absolutely kind and professional. She even brought food to go order out to us. Thought this was above, beyond and definitely appreciated! Keep up the outstanding work! Thanks to all!

The very best beef sandwich with generous amount of beef. I love it baptized and served with hot peppers which definitely are Hot!! Simply delicious. Much more tasty, tender and more beef compared to Portillo’s

I eat here way too often because they are just better than other places. I always feel like they looked at Portillos, figured out what it was missing and perfected it. The fries are always crispy. They have the gluten free pita as alternative to burger bun, which tastes 10x better than most gf buns. I always order delivery online and they have tons of rewards or discounts. They are always super fast delivery, the eta will say 45 min when ordering but it ends up getting here in 15-20 its awesome. The only time they made a mistake (forgot my fries) the manager was very kind and owned the mistake and they even sent a new driver out to bring us the fries and a cookie as an apology. Love this place

Very disappointed in the chopped salad. There's no olives, very little chicken. It's just about all lettuce. I want a refund. I would never have ordered this chopped salad If I knew there were no olives and just about all lettuce. Not at that price.
