“One of the best restaurants in Amherst! My partner and I order from here once or twice a week; the food is consistently fresh, hot, and delicious. Everything is seasoned perfectly. The all-day combo is so affordable, with a lot of options. We like the General Tso's Chicken, Mapo Tofu, Beef Teriyaki Skewers, Poached Chicken over Rice, and Crab Rangoons, but you can't miss with anything here. The service is also so sweet and lovely, definitely the highlight of Chef Lau's. Thank you!!“

“Tried food from here for the first time and was pleasantly surprised! My chicken bacon ranch sub was sooo good, chicken was perfect. We also got a ham and cheese stuffed bread that was delicious. The food isn't greasy and doesn't leave you feeling like crap like some places do. I also found the prices affordable. I'm excited to try more food here!“

“THEEEE BESTTTTT U WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED MY FAVORITE LIL SPOT TO GO WITH WIFE 🩷⭐️“

“Just an absolutely perfect place with plenty of vegan and also “normal” food options.

I’m so glad I found this place.

I had the Quinoa salad and it was the best vegan whole plant food lunch I’ve eaten in a long time, maybe ever.

Delicious food can be healthful, and someone in that kitchen knows that!

Congrats!“

“Every Thursday is Chicken Tenders Night for the squad. I'm reviewing this on a Monday even though Chicken Tenders Night is on Thursday, that's how much I'm looking forward to Thursday! Nothing beats onion rings and chicken tenders. My friends and I all live in Southwest, but we make the trip to Worcester ever week. We basically walk a mile from our dorms just to get to Worcester! It's our late night ritual.. I recommend always getting honey mustard and blue cheese. Sometimes I tell my friends that I can't talk right now because all I want to do is eat and wait in line for the next batch of chicken.“

“7 pm Saturday. Accommodated 6 for dinner quickly. Staff very friendly, but had to ask bartender for water. Placed appetizer order. Chips/ guac/salsa delicious!. Food took more than 30 minutes after they finally took the order. Didn't leave til 9:15 p.m. Nice place if you're not in a rush.“

“Great food & servers the atmosphere was so relaxing“

“How can I forget about this place where I could eat healthy with a number of exquisite varieties, located at Amherst College, what I loved is that once you are in the dining room you can eat everything you want, so it is worth it. in that sense.“

“Really impressed with Omi Omy! Was visiting the area for work. It's super conveniently located in the Big Y plaza. Got chicken vermicelli noodle bowl, fresh spring rolls, and a pork banh mi. I live in Boston and always get my banh mi in Chinatown and omg, this was BETTER! The bread is something special. Crispy, yet chewy, fresh, impeccable. Their ratio of toppings to meat to sauce was spot on. It was truly perfect. I will dream about it forever. Fresh spring rolls were huge, the peanut sauce was a little watery but they were still good. Vermicelli w/ fish vinegar sauce was great as well. Really fair prices and delicious food. Absolutely worth a stop!“

“Where do I even begin when it comes to this location of the great Brueggers bagels? When you walk in you’re hit with such a majestic smell it’s almost like dying and going to heaven. The bagels should be illegal, for how delectable they are, from the mouthwatering everything bagel, all the way to the intense taste of the blueberry. The manager of this establishment, a man named Dan is what I like to call “Bagel Jesus” as when he comes out of the back he radiates what the name Bruggers Bagels represents. This is an establishment for the ages and should be a historic landmark for what it represents in food, and service. Props to you daniel, you Bagel Savior.“
