Friday Food Critic: Buona Beef

When it comes to restaurants, Bolingbrook has it covered.

We have some great local places that many would consider community gems; we have some restaurants that aren't exactly mom-and-pop but are unique to the area; and we certainly—for better or for worse—have plenty of chains lining our main streets.

But what we don't have is a consistent food critic to tell us what's good and what's not. 

That's where you come in.

We're not egotistical enough to tell you what restaurants you do and don't like. It's your community. You eat the food. You tell us if it passes the mark.

That's why we run , where each week, we put a different restaurant on the chopping block. You tell us how you feel about it, what dishes are good, who has the best drink specials and so forth.

This week we ask your opinion on .

Located at the intersection of Weber Road and Lily Cache Lane, offers an extensive menu of Italian beef, sandwiches, burgers, pizzas and more.

Here's what , a Bolingbrook Patch reader, had to say about :

Move over Portillo's, there's a new BEEF in town! Italian Beef that is. Great flavor in the spices used, no skinpy portions, and fresh-baked Turano bread. We love the beef sandwiches so much, we haven't had a chance to try anything else. The fries are smokin' hot, even after driving them home. You want a freshly made cannoli? Better save some room, or take one for later. I enjoy the decor, and wish I could go there daily, and eat my way through their whole menu.

To review , simply click on their name (or ). You'll be directed toward their community listing in our business directory, where you can rate them on a five-star system and write a personal review.

At Bolingbrook Patch, we believe your words of wisdom are better than any food critic.
