    The store's name Buns on Fire intrigued me, as there are many images that came to mind. I have to assume that it's because of the burgers, of course. This is a small place, maybe 5-6 tables, and decorated in a futuristic-videogame-graffiti-vibe. It's new, the manager told me it's been open about a week, and it's located by Mariano's. We tried the boba, because we already ate lunch. I ordered a coconut strawberry matcha with boba (one free topping) and my friend ordered a bobaholic, a brown sugar milk tea. We ordered at the counter but later noticed there was a self service kiosk on the side. The staff was friendly enough, the drinks took a little longer than expected, but we cut them slack because the place was new. My drink was nothing extraordinary--the label, contrary to the menu--was listed as mango strawberry. I did taste a slight strawberry but definitely no mango or matcha. I tasted my friends drink and it was ok, sweet but not strongly flavored. We both agreed that the tapioca was great, with a nice chewy texture. We did notice several groups come in as we were leaving. It's cute, it's new, it's freshly decorated. I would have to come back to try a burger. I don't think I'd return for bubble tea unless I was already in the area.

    Tried this place on grand opening day as the name intrigued me, and the promo content I saw on instagram had my mouth watering. We ended up getting a plethora of items such as the gyro & chicken rice bowl, their chicken bites, the fries, and the banana pudding. Rice bowl had some great seasoning to it, and it all blended well together. The chicken bites had a nice kick to them, and it came with a mayo based sauce for dipping on the side. Seasoned fries were a slight disappointment, but I chalk it up to it the place being packed to the gills on opening day. All in all the food was good and I would be back to order more. As I had said previously, I came here on opening day, and the lines were long and a bit chaotic inside as you couldn't tell there were 2 ways to order. One was the guy at the register, and another was a kiosk off to the side. Food took a bit longer to get out due to the backlog of people in the vacinity. Overall, it was good, and I would want to be back to enjoy another one of their rice bowls and chicken bites!

    My wife and I stopped by this spot after checking out "Everything Games" in the same plaza. We were looking for a spot to get a smoothie or something to drink, so we saw this place had boba and went for it. Unfortunately, our experience wasn't great. The store looks great as far as vibe and decor, but when we approached the counter the clerk was making some drinks. There was a QR code menu that we browsed, and the clerk stated we could also use the self-service kiosk. We told her we were new to the place and she directed us to the QR code menu. We ordered the lychee mango smoothie with rainbow boba and the pina colada smoothie. It took longer than anticipated for the clerk to make two drinks, especially considering there were multiple blenders to use but they only used one I get not wanting to clean, but there were only two other patrons in the store and they already had their items. After waiting for a while for our drinks, we finally received them and went on our way. When I tell you the pina colada drink I had was terrible, I mean it. It was bland, didn't taste like pineapple whatsoever, but a weird creamy mush. My wife was drinking her drink when she tasted something odd, and pulled a sliver of metal from her mouth. METAL IN HER SMOOTHIE. See the included pictures if you don't believe me. This is incredibly dangerous and we will certainly never be coming here again! Customers, avoid this place if you can, and if not please check your food and drink before consumption. Thankfully, my wife is fine and didn't get hurt.

    they just started breakfast and i was excited and hoping it would be good i would say it was ok but not the best for the prices the qty was not at par as compared to other comparable breakfast options the omelette and the keema was definitely better than the halwa puri and hoping the owner sees this and improves the halwa puri the qty based on the prices is a big issue vs the market the mango lassi was tiny and so was the chai and halwa puri

    Really appreciated the fact that the food is freshly prepared and comes out piping hot. The fries were really good, nicely seasoned and not greasy at all, actually a bit crunchy to perfection. The chicken sandwich and burger we ordered were really nicely flavored. Overall a nice lunch place when craving burger or chicken sandwich with a bit of a kick. We didn't try any drink so can't comment on the bobas they did look nice though.

    Cute new burger and boba spot that's opened up near by. I didn't try and boba but I did try a burger, their spicy chicken sandwich, their loaded fries, and the banana biscoff pudding. These were all very rich and good. When they say spicy, they mean spicy! So be ready for that if you're not able to handle spice. I'll be back to try their boba drinks sometime soon :)

    Consistently 10/10. The best chicken sandwich in Illinois hands down and their fries are phenomenal.

    Like others, I waited almost an hour for takeout. Food was dismal in presentation. Staff was not polite. Stay away.

    Good but not great. Everything was extra spicy which is fine to some degree but I needed to ask them to make the fries not spicy.

    The hot chick sandwich was fantastic! Spartan atmosphere, counter service. Nothing fancy, just really good flavor!
