We love Buona and are really happy they opened up a new location in Lake Zurich. The area needed more quality hot dog/beef/burger restaurants. We used to go to the Schaumburg location regularly, but will be coming to the new location due to the location being close to home. My family and I love Buona beef's, their burgers, hot dogs, pizza and their Buona beef bites are the best thing on the menu(IMO). This location is partnered with Rainbow Cone, so you can get that amazing ice cream at the same time. We ordered take out during opening week and the team seemed pretty on point. We had a pretty large to go order and they got it all correct, sounds like a simple task, but we've all had the issue of missing or incorrect orders from our go to take out spots, let alone a new restaurant trying to shake things out. We were greeted by a manager at the pick up station, got the food right out to us quickly. The manager and the few other employees we talked to were nice and happy to be there. So glad Buona opened up close to home, we'll be regulars for sure.

This brand new location has the latest in self serve kiosks and an ice cream shop at the side. The menu is the same as other locations and the food is delicious. I have only dined in so I cannot rate the drive thru service. However you should know that the dining room has limited space for booths, with only two that seat more than two children. Occasion they slip up in keeping the beverage station utensils and napkins stocked. If you overlook this, they have the best Italian beef, individual pizzas, and even pasta in a casual order at the counter atmosphere.

clearly shows I ordered chicken

Dave Pacheco, the store manager, is very unprofessional. I paid $15.00 for a chicken Caesar salad and it came without chicken. He made me send him a pic by email and he responded by saying he doesn't believe I didn't get chicken! I requested a refund and he refused.

receipt

I ordered a strawberry avocado side salad and the avocado was missing. Can we get some QA?

I purchased the combo deal for $13 which includes fries, burger and drink. You are allowed free refills on your beverage of choice and the portions were extremely generous especially the fries. I love the fact that you can fill up on peanuts too taking as many helpings as you wish while dining in the premises. I had a great time and it was definitely worth the price. Highly recommend this location for its happy vibes and delicious food and portions. It's definitely a fun vibe here.

Reggie was awesome even reached out while I was eating And asked me how it was. Girl cleaning the lobby was working hard. So nice to see a well running business. My only complaint is why can't I order well done fries online? Keep up the good work. I will be back. Thank you.

I was scrolling through Uber Eats and I've seen this restaurant come up as a suggestion several times. Well being that I didn't want anything from the usual fast food options, I decided to give them a chance today. I am overjoyed that I did! The burgers were absolutely delicious & the fries were both crispy and fluffy, with just the right amount of seasoning on them! Nothing is worse than an overseasoned fry. Okay well some things are but you get my point. I did two separate build your own burgers. One for my mom who likes the rabbit food on her burgers, and one for me who wants meat cheese and all the deliciousness! She absolutely devoured hers and loved it and mine was absolutely fantastic. Pure deliciousness! I'm already ready to order from here again tomorrow! The food was fast, fresh, and hot so as far as I'm concerned the service if we went here would be fantastic too! I can't speak to the Ambiance yet because we've only had it delivered but based off the food I would say it's got to be very clean and orderly. I will definitely be getting the burger with the egg on it next time! They are competitively priced as well, especially given that your fries or chosen side are included in the price! Definitely give this place a try if you're near one of their locations I promise you won't be disappointed!

Chicken wings!?? Yes, this is the SPOT!!!…read more I guess so far the best place to get wings. I took a pick up and it was super convenient to order. Ambience is like a sports bar- gets busy on the weekends!

I visited Gators Wing Shack with my brother and came away genuinely impressed. I ordered the…read morebuffalo wings, and they delivered on every level. What sets these wings apart is their balance and execution. The exterior has a precise crisp, light and golden, with a slight crunch that gives way cleanly without feeling heavy or overworked. Inside, the chicken is tender, juicy, and well-seasoned, which is where many places fall short. Too often, wings rely heavily on sauce to carry flavor, but here the chicken itself stands on its own and holds its integrity. Each wing felt intentional in its preparation. The cook was consistent throughout, and the texture and flavor were reliable from piece to piece. That kind of attention shows. The buffalo sauce brings everything together with a balanced heat and tang, coating each wing evenly without overwhelming the natural flavor of the chicken. It complements rather than masks. I typically favor flats, and while I did finish those first, every wing met the same standard. There was no drop-off in quality, which is something you don't always get. My brother ordered the grilled chicken sandwich and was equally impressed. Given his background judging meat quality at the collegiate level, his opinion carries weight, and he noted how well the chicken was cooked and seasoned. Overall, this is a well-rounded spot that delivers where it matters most. The food is executed with consistency and care, and the atmosphere makes it an easy place to enjoy a game with plenty of screens covering Chicago teams and more. Rating: 9.1/10
