    Spicy Maple Chicken Biscuit
    Suzette M.

    Finally made it out to try the breakfast at Buddyz. I had their spicy maple chicken biscuit sandwich (could've used a little more gravy) while my husband order the chorizo pizza flatbread. Son had the strawberry cheeseburger pancakes. We all enjoyed the food! I love that this establishment sits downtown near the river. Cool pizza place with bar and staff was super friendly. We will be back!

    You must also get the beer nuggets. Best starter I've hard in a long time. This was the best deal for a group to try several different pizzas. Very flavorful and I will be back to try the thin crust next time. Also I recommend sitting in the back room as the front tends to be quite loud. Service was very prompt.

    Club sandwich, chicken, bacon, lettuce, tomato, cheese and mayo, YUM

    Club sandwich, YUM! Chicken tenders and fries always hot. Pizza, delicious. We love visiting buddyz

    Spring is in the air and we wanted to sit outside. They have a large outdoor seating area with great views. Service was fast and pleasant. Pizza took longer than expected but it was definitely in the upper tier of Chicago thin crust which is our favorite. Great flavor, good crisp, cooked perfectly and the right amount of cheese. We'll be back for sure.

    Seafood Marinara

    Ordered the Calamari and it was really good. Also had the seafood marinara and it was also delicious. Very large portions, so had plenty to take home. Service was good and atmosphere was nice. Will definitely go back again!

    We wanted so much to love this place. It doesn't hold a candle to the Chicago location…read more the pizza was just ok. Not very flavorful and The crust was not the same as the what we remember - The Italian Beef Rolls were not very good. Again, Not much flavor to them and they were burnt. The inside seemed uninviting and not someplace we would want to dine in. We will give them another try to see if maybe this was just an off day.

    High Expectations - No Satisfaction…read more I've been to Leona's in Chicago many times so was excited to have one in Mchenry. one of those you know what to expect, experience, quality, and consistency. Anything but.... We orders online, and order ready in 26 minutes not bad! Upon arriving I noticed a large number of people with arms crossed and not happy faces. I walked up to the bar area, advised of my order... they go check. "I'm we just got your order in, so it's going to be 15 minutes." No apologies, No explanation. "Oh we don't have fried calamari, I don't know why it let you order that." Then silence... no explanation, and I had to ask if that would be refunded?!? They asked for my online receipt and refunded in cash. I along with many others were asked what we ordered, our order numbers by various staff. Again, I didn't hear any apologies, any explanations, simply walking around like this is normal day to day business. Now it's new to the area, I know it's been open a few days, but a simple apology for the inconvenience makes a difference when you want customers to return. The 4th employee that asked me for my order number and name, walked back to the kitchen and shouted the numbers he received by waiting patrons, then I can see and hear an older gentlemen saying the name and order number literally same time and saying they haven't called that they arrived. Um your staff just asked the customers up front for the numbers as they are present. At this point I went back there to clearly identify my order was present. Let alone there's no outside curbside parking nor process to alert Leona's you are waiting. Finally received my pizza (no calamari) and no apologies, no explanation. At this point I'm hopeful the pizza is at least good considering it's a large chain known for consistency and quality... welp look at the pictures of the pizza, doughy, inconsistent, messy, and random full basil leave. I hope they get it together or they will close down quickly like everyone business in that location. Poor training, poor communication skills, poor leadership. One and done for me. Restaurant was clean yet I hope it would be considering they just opened, also noticed the host welcomed people by "hi here's the menu (point) grab and seat and you can come back up when your ready." I mean local dive bar, sure but wow, disappointing on many levels, staff, communication, leadership, and food.

The brisket was better than the pork. The only thing I wished was that I wanted it to be more smoky. The barbecue pork was decent, but I would definitely want to try the ribs during the weekend. He was very nice and very accommodating and added in some sweet pickled jalapeños, which were phenomenal. The brisket sandwich was definitely a good hit. Had the coleslaw and mac & cheese...and that was not bad at all!Had a little bit more mayo than expected with a tad of vinegar, which was OK. Overall, it was a very good lunch/dinner. (by the way, I liked the Kansas City better than the Texas but Texas sauce was also very good! They make their own homemade sauce by the way ) Nick was a great conversational piece and they are going to be starting with a food truck pretty soon which is gonna be pretty neat. He does take a lot of pride in his work, and it shows! So I guess keep an eye open for that. Nice job, Nick. I'll give you the next star an update this review once I have your ribs. Is that a Deal?

    Absolutely nothing to rave about. The food is barely even mid. The marinara sauce is horrendous…read more Tastes like it's straight out of a jar but our server claimed everything was made in house. I got the chicken parmigiana with marinara and bowtie noodles and the breading was falling off the entire piece of chicken. It was poorly coated. The chicken was also tough and dry, and severely overcooked. The noodles were well over cooked and so saggy I couldn't even get them on my fork. I gave up on the pasta part of my meal. Their wine list, given that they're an Italian restaurant, is sad. Only 1 option for basically each type of wine. Our server was not very friendly and seemed to have an attitude. He never checked in. Our glasses had been empty and he never bothered to ask if we wanted another round or even more water. We had to chase down other servers to ask. And it was not busy at all. The hostess even seemed to have an attitude when we arrived. I don't recommend and I will not be returning.

And they have a ton of TVs so if you're looking to watch Thursday Night Football on the elusive Amazon Prime Video or other sports this is definitely a good option and they seem to have most games available. Pizza is good (admittedly I've only had the thin crust) and the Chicken Parm is excellent - crispy and tender and the portion is huge for those who value this. Monday is 1/2 price pizza and Thursday is $1 wings (which are huge and pretty good overall) and most days seem to have food & drink specials, menu prices may be slightly higher than some local competitors but the specials often counteract this. It seems to be more of a beer, wine, and well drink crowd and I can't speak to fancy mixology options but if you're looking for someplace with good food to watch sports this appears to be the best option in town.
