Hot and fresh- Sack of fish bubblers and small mozzarella stick
Sharaka L.

Food is fresh and hot. Service is super polite and nice, from the order taker to the person in the drive thru window, Ambiance couldn't tell as I was the drive-thru.

Everyday i come here you guys make my day weather its door dash or I'm hungry best staff and management keep up the hard work it makes everyone day

Bucket list accomplished

The staff was great . Food was wonderful. This was a bucket list for me. The food was great and beyond expectations and the staff were super friendly / such a nostalgic visit

Killer Sauce!!

I am an absolute sucker for the double cheese sliders. I love these silly, tiny square burgers smothered in cheese and onions on a steamed bun. Oh and a pickle slice too. For this location near Gurnee Mills you can have virtually any kind of restaurant you desire but I always pick White Castle. It's a sickness and I know it, but admitting it is part of the recovery right? LOL. For as many times as I have been here I never knew about the wonderful Zesty Zing Sauce! Its the best one in the fast food world and works great on the krinkle cut fries. Now another reason to gouge myself at a White Castle.

DOUBLE CHEESE SLIDER COMBO

Quick order via the drive thru, didn't have to wait forever like other locations. The double cheese burgers were cooked perfectly. There is just something about these burgers & onions. It works! The onions practically melt in your mouth, no overwhelming onion flavor. Just do it! The fries are nice and crisp!

Manager performing Deep fryer maintenance during lunch rush with customers waiting. It was 12:30 pm.

Service here is horrible. I came here for lunch. There was 1 customer waiting for her order to be filled. Being the only customer at the counter, I thought the order taking would be quick. I was wrong. The manager was behind the counter doing maintenance on one of the deep fryers. Seriously? At 12:30 pm arguably peak lunch rush time fryer maintenance should have been done during off peak time. The drive thru was being slammed with cars. Other customers started to accumulate behind me. Several ended up leaving because of the lack of service. The manager just kept filtering the deep fryer, Not attending to the customers as if we weren't there. Instead, he yelled at an employee that was on their break to handle the front line customers. Finally, my order was taken. Total wait time from when I walked in to getting my order served was 30 minutes. One of the other customers that came after had mobile or online order that was large. The manager lectured that customer to expect longer wait time with an order of that size even though this was placed on electronically. How's is that the customer's fault. This manager hasn't a clue to customer service. This is the only White Castle that I experienced such crap service. This location sucks. If crap service is what you desire, this White Castle is for you. Skip this place.

I am appalled at the slow motion drive through. I was in line for 10 minutes. I will not stand for this. Somebody better get fired.

The Cuisine Umpire says: "Three Strikes and You're OUT!"…read moreHere's the third Yelp I've done about "Mission BBQ" and I'm afraid the Mission was NOT accomplished. The last time we went to one, (In Naperville, IL q.v. my Yelp for it), We were totally bummed as it was a truly disappointing feed, bordering on the inedible: A piece of "Prime Rib" not ready for prime time, adipose pulled pork, and ribs with bone shrapnel. Ug. We had to pick up Grandson and Date from Six Flags Great America down the road, and we were early enough to wedge dinner in before we were expected at the park. Nothing else looked appetizing in the stretch of Illinois 132 just west of G.A., so we figured the last time at Mission was SO awful, it had to be a fluke, and this store should CERTAINLY be better. It wasn't. We both had "2 meat" plates- I with Ribs, Sausage and Wife had Ribs and pulled pork. We both had slaw and fries. The pulled pork was the least offensive of the proteins. This time, it was the opposite of last time--not so fatty, and not so flavorful either. Dry and insipid. The Sausage was mushy and strangely lacking in real flavor. And the goddamned Ribs were the same ineptly butchered mess we ran into in Naperville. Shards of Bones at the top of the cut. Slightly over-smoked/over-cooked as well. WTF? That much of the same criticism of Naperville was in play here made us think this is the way things are served at Mission BBQ and not an anomaly. A mention to the manager wouldn't help things. Now in the "Every theory has a corollary" dept: As in Naperville the slaw, fries and cornbread were pretty good; as was the Iced Tea and fountain drink "throw". The sauces were all pretty good too. Wished there was some decent "Q" to put them on. Maybe it's just our taste, or we are spoiled by "Q" in our visits to the South, but there's no excuse for the lazy butchering of the ribs, or the mushiness of the sausage. I know "corporate" chains tamp down spices in the "come bet" common palates will desire a less bold cuisine, but DAMN! this is BARBEQUE. American Q is NOT a "safe" proposition. This isn't the cuisine to play it safe. Then again, it's not meant as an insult, but Suburban denizens (unless you're a suburb of, say...Austin Texas) prolly aren't in for foods meant to challenge. I see enough 5star Yelps indicating a lot of folks like this place; so I'll assume Wife and I are the outliers. We haven't found a whole lot of Suburban Northern Q supremely edible. The whole mishegoss is a dilemma, as Mission BBQ is deep into honoring our service Men & Women. We are, too. That a portion of the (considerable) cash we left there goes to Service folks soothes at least part of the sting of a lousy feed...

A Great New Addition to Gurnee--Beef, Shakes, and Rainbow Ice Cream!…read moreI dropped by the brand-new Buona Beef in Gurnee to grab dinner to go! It's located on the west side of town, safely away from the craziest of the mall traffic. Just a quick heads-up on navigation: if you're heading east, finding the entrance can be a little tricky. You have to turn left at N. Hutchins Road and spot the side road tucked behind the tall swamp grass! Inside, the restaurant is beautifully clean. It took about 10 minutes to prep my order, which included two Italian beef sandwiches, a side of potato salad, a Caesar salad (both prepackaged), and an order of their arancini beef bites. You get three to an order, and while they taste good, they completely fall apart the second you take a bite, so be careful! I actually watched a video on their history and learned they use a commissary kitchen to ensure the flavor stays consistent across all locations, which makes sense. It's a solid, reliable local chain and a really nice alternative to the usual burger or chicken franchises. As a massive bonus, there is a Rainbow Cone ice cream parlor right inside the building! Our office actually had their truck visit us before, so we already knew how good it is. I couldn't resist bringing home a gallon of the rainbow ice cream, a slice of cake, and the four sugar cones they pack up for you to scoop at home. I even signed up for their rewards program. With a huge menu that covers everything from beef and burgers to fresh salads, it's a great, handy new spot to have in the area! BTW, service was a little slow. Maybe they are still training?

Tried Buona tonight. My first time so I was unfamiliar with the lingo for beef juicing. The cashier…read moreLina was very nice to explain the differences. She gave us a number and it didn't take long before it all arrived at our table. The beef was tender and slightly spicy. Not too hot, though. I had green peppers and they came in seasoned chunks which made it all very easy to handle and quite delicious. Onion rings and crinkle French fries were crunchy. As a former Chicagoan I was quite pleased. And a shout out for Lina, could be Lena. I was watching her take orders, delivered others outside, fixed the tables and chairs. She was doing it all. A terrific person to have on staff.
