    Buona Italian Beef & Giardiniera Pizza
    Felicia D.

    Had the Italian beef pizza and came to write about how good it was! My son normally has a pizza while I get a beef sandwich. Well today I decided to try the pizza with the beef and it was so tasty, and the giardinera on it add some tang and made jt amazing. We also had shakes which are so good here. Service was great also - we picked up and it was ready to go. No complaints.

    I waited in this line for a long time; over 20 minutes, this place is busy!!!!! I would've pulled away, but I was stuck in the inside lane. The strawberry avocado salad is great! I wish they offered it with a different nut because I don't care for walnuts, but it was still good. They have well kept grounds. I like how they have a screen for you to review the menu before you get to the actual ordering screen.

    Hard to say if I would refer people to this specific spot! bueno beef is always good especially the locations with a rainbow cone attached. This location is great if you live in Mount Greenwood or Beverly but nothing over the edge to drive a long distance. I recommend getting the beef wet because for some reason it absorbs into the bread and can taste dry if you don't like dry taste then get it dipped

    I came to this Buona location for the first time today. I decided to come to this location since I needed to head to the Original Rainbow Cone in the area. I'm so glad I came. Special shout out to Kaylah (I hope that's her name. I found it on my receipt) who went out of her way to make my experience great today. She informed me that Buona does offer a beef bowl, which is a huge game changer for someone like me who can't have bread. I was also trying to redeem my birthday beef, and she made it happen by ringing me up as a regular beef but she added instructions to say make it like a beef bowl. After I paid for my fries and cheese cup, I saw and heard her tell the kitchen staff again to make it like a beef bowl, and the instructions were also translated in Spanish by another team member. I am truly thankful and appreciative of such great service. Everything was accurate and exactly how I expected it to be. The fries are some of the best I've had, outside crispy and inside soft. The cheese is melted to perfection, and the beef bowl was packaged nicely. The portion can be better, but I do love how there's a good amount of gravy to pepper ratio. I added giardiniara to my beef bowl. Kaylah was also very knowledgeable about what the regular beef already comes with. There's also free parking on premise and plenty of seats indoors and out on their patio. I don't mind a short drive, and I am looking forward to making this my new Buona location for when I have a craving. I'd recommend this location to anyone in the area looking for Buona and fast food.

    Italian beef dipped with mozzarella cheese and hot peppers!
    Paula W.

    Chicago born and raised. I was in the area and craving a "beef" walked right in no line, no wait. Hi, can I get a Italian beef dipped with mozzarella cheese and hot peppers please" . A few moments later, the order was bagged up and ready to go. The beef was flavorful with lots of peppers just the way I like it. Good service here as well.I will be back!

    This is one of the best shakes around if you didn't see my fist review go read it.
    James H.

    This is one of the best shakes around if you didn't see my first interview go read it. When I tell you, this absolutely blows my mind. It really does good people. Good food makes everyone so happy. And if you ask employee to do something, they always have a smile on their face and they'll go do it for free.

    I get the chicken salad I love it. Although I do notice there's less chicken and less blue cheese, but it's a great place to eat

    The Beverly location service is awful, the food is never made to order. This location is clueless when it comes to business concept.

    Food is always great. The beef is tender and juicy. For something different try the protein bowl

    I needed a quick bite between appointments and was hoping to find a new spot with healthy options…read moreand I sure have seemed to! I was greeted by friendly employees at two counters, one for Andy's Sunflower cafe which sells coffee and tea, and one for food (Ain't She Sweet). I had no idea what to order so I asked the teammate at the counter and after discussing my spice tolerance, decided to go for the Jerk Chicken Wrap since it's so popular. It was a bit spicer than medium, which I was warned, but it was worth it. The chicken was juicy and tender and I was impressed by the freshness of the other ingredients as well as their tortilla wrap selection! The chicken gumbo was also quite tasty. I would order both again. The prices were reasonable, it was a $3 upcharge for a side of soup. I sat in the restaurant to eat and enjoyed the music. I think I might have found my new lunch spot!

    I usually go to the one on 43rd. Thursday was my first time going to the Beverly location I ordered…read morea Jerk chicken wrap, banana cake and some clam chowder. The clam chowder didn't have a lot of cream to me, but the clams weren't tough. You know usually when you eat clam chowder, it kinda taste like you're chewing bubblegum. The clams were so tender!! I was very surprised. The banana cake is delicious and moist. It's heavenly!!!!!! My jerk wrap was amazing! The chicken was cooked perfectly and it didn't have too much jerk sauce on it so it wasn't salty. It was delicious. I highly recommend Ain't She Sweet Cafe at either location!!!
