Yummyyyyyy! We drove…read moreup to Murfreesboro to check out a visiting art exhibit at MTSU. We wanted to try something that we couldn't find in our home city of Huntsville, and we settled on Buona. I'm very glad we did! This restaurant still looks relatively new and is set up in a seemingly developing part of town. There was ample parking and the inside was bright, clean, and spacious. On one side of the restaurant is a separate concept that serves ice cream and desserts. I think this concept is related to Buona/owned by the same folks but I'm not sure. It looked and smelled good though! Anyway, this is an order at the counter type of restaurant, though your meal is delivered to your table. They also have kiosks available if you're feeling asocial, though the placement of these is somewhat incongruous and causes some gridlock if there's a line to order. We decided to order at the counter to make sure our requests could be accommodated. The woman who took our orders listened carefully and took thorough care to ensure things were to our liking and our questions were answered. Our order was correct when it was delivered shortly afterwards. My parents split a medium Italian beef combo with added cheese and sweet peppers as well as a chili dog, and for myself I also ordered a medium Italian beef combo. I got mine with hot giardiniera and cheese, though. Combos come with a side of crinkle cut fries and a drink. I was very pleased to see they have not only Pepsi products, but Pepsi Zero Sugar, which I find preferable to Diet Pepsi. Win! Everything was delicious. The beef was meltingly tender and savory and the giardiniera was tangy and crisp (though I wouldn't have said no to just a teeny bit spicier, hehe - though don't get me wrong, it did have a discernible kick). I got mine with light gravy but you could still taste the umami of the au jus. My own complaint is I wish I could've gotten a dipping cup on the side; perhaps it's possible but I didn't see it on the menu and it wasn't offered. Maybe I should've asked. I like to dip as opposed to dunk to preserve the sandwich's non-sogginess. I digress though, it was a fabulous sandwich. I haven't tried a ton of Italian beefs in my life so far, but this was my favorite. I also usually don't love crinkle fries (or they're certainly not my preferred cut), but as far as crinkle fries go, these were hot, fresh, and fried and seasoned perfectly. It was a generous portion too. My parents also loved their sandwich and said the chili dog was tasty too. The restaurant (including the restroom) was very clean, service was polite and efficient, and the food was delicious. Truly my only tiny complaint is the lack of an au jus dipping cup. I later learned this is actually a franchise that's slowly spreading to the south. That being the case, I am very hopeful that they'll turn their eyes to Huntsville for expansion. I find it somewhat rare for large operations such as this one to produce such an extremely high quality product and experience, but Buona delivered. I look forward to visiting other locations in the future.

I have been recommended this place by multiple people throughout the years and finally got a chance to give it a try. (Well, I say that but mainly because I go to Gold's Deli everytime I'm in Columbia. So it was time to share the love) They have a pretty large menu of various sandwiches, I wish I had grabbed a picture of them. I asked the cashier if she had to pick one sandwich which one would it be, she gave me a list of about 3 that all sounded amazing. The fourth she suggested was if you're overwhelmed or unsure just get the Italian. I LOVE Italian sandwiches so that is what I ended up with. Everything here is fresh so I waited about 5-10 minutes for my sandwich to get made. I will definitely be trying out some of the more adventurous creations next time but this was so good. This Italian has a freshness to it that I have a hard time describing but their olive oil blend is lovely, the olives, banana peppers and lettuce helped with that fresh taste as well I'm sure. The bread is incredible! It taste house baked, crisp outer crust with a pillowy interior. The house chips were also really good and salted perfectly. The inside is cool, it's a microbrewery and there's subtle like alien themes throughout? Overall can't wait to try it out again, stop by if you're ever down in Columbia!

The soup loaded veggies such as carrots, green beans and potatoes with a nice hardy broth The croissant was nice and warm and deliciously complimented the soup. This little gem offers a very comfortable ambiance with nice side music playing in the background. Additionally, after you enjoy your meal, you can also pick up some pastries for the road at an actually reasonable price.

This casual sandwich shop is the Nashville outpost of an original New Orleans Michelin Bib Gourmand-recognized spot. And it truly delivers. The menu is tight but emphasizes indulgent, tasty burgers, po'boys, and a variety of sandwiches and sides. The vibe is ideal for the warmer months, as it's primarily outdoors (with a covered patio on part of the eatery.) I've come twice now: first for a pop-up they did for Lunar New Year and again a few weeks later just to grab lunch. Parking is pretty easy to find on the street but be forewarned at peak lunch time on the weekends or for special pop-ups, whichthere can be a long line to order. I've had the burger and fries here and it's excellent but can't wait to come back and try the daily special po'boy or the collard green melt so many of my friends have raved about. They really understand the perfect mathematical ratio between sauciness, crispness of the breading, and overall flavor to just make really incredible sandwiches. Service is friendly and very fast. You order at a counter and then your food is brought to you. They have my favorite local seltzer, Maypop, or you could opt for a drink from their full bar. They host a lot of special pop-ups in collaboration with other chefs or just other cool people (Tyler Childers did a sandwich with them last summer.) When I came for their Lunar New Year pop-up with Chef Christine Lau, the line was around the block but they dealt with everyone efficiently, there were still plenty of tables for sitting, and the food (we ordered everything on the menu that day) was truly unreal delicious. Menu prices are pretty reasonable, about $14-15 for a sandwich and then sides would add up on top of that. Believe the hype for this spot - it's absolutely a worth it.
