Buona Restaurants, created in 1981, represents the Company's first division established in Berwyn, Illinois. Since then, the chain has expanded to seventeen locations varying in size from 3,000 square feet to 5,500 square feet. The casual, upscale quick service restaurants feature the world famous, award winning "Buona" Italian RoastBeef sandwiches for lunch and dinner. The menu also includes authentic Neapolitan pizza, hand tossed salads, café sandwiches and grilled Panini. The newer restaurants are brightly colored with the feel of a fresh market or kitchen, showcasing real food in a warm, comfortable dining room with seating for 90-150 guests. Featuring a drive-thru and a carryout section, take-out orders make up approximately 50% of sales at any given restaurant. Additionally, Buona's Catering Counters, conveniently located within each restaurant, offer customers bulk Italian Beef and other prepared foods by the pound.
