“If there were a sixth star, I would give it to Serj, and then I would personally petition the United Nations to create a seventh star just so I could give him that one too. That’s how good this man is at his job.

My journey began as I walked through the hallowed doors of Olive Garden, where the aroma of endless breadsticks and the faint whisper of Alfredo sauce linger in the air like a divine hymn. The hostess led me to my table, but little did I know that fate itself had seated me in Serj’s section.

From the moment he approached, it was clear I wasn’t dealing with an ordinary waiter. No. Serj appeared at my table as though descending from the heavens—apron neatly tied, pen at the ready, posture strong, eyes twinkling with the kind of confidence that says, “I can carry six soup bowls in one hand and refill your water before you even realize you’re thirsty.”

He introduced himself with the grace of a Broadway performer and the sincerity of a man who truly understands the weight of unlimited salad. “Hi, I’m Serj, I’ll be taking care of you today.” Taking care of me? Friend, Serj didn’t just take care of me. He shepherded me through a culinary odyssey.

When I asked for extra breadsticks, he didn’t just bring them—he presented them, like a knight returning from battle with treasure for his king. When I inquired about the difference between the Tour of Italy and the Chicken Alfredo, Serj’s explanation was so detailed, I felt like I had just attended a TED Talk on pasta-based decision-making. He gestured with such passion toward the menu, I half expected him to pull out a laser pointer and pie charts.

At one point, I dropped my fork. Before it even hit the floor, Serj materialized with a replacement, as though he had foreseen this in a prophetic vision earlier that morning. Truly, this man must have Spidey-sense, but instead of crime, his powers are tuned to the vibrations of clattering cutlery.

Midway through the meal, he checked in—not too much, not too little. Like Goldilocks’ ideal bowl of porridge, his timing was just right. I imagine Serj keeps an internal clock, finely calibrated to the digestive rhythms of mankind.

But the true climax of this saga came with dessert. I was full. Stuffed, even. Yet Serj, with the persuasive power of a seasoned diplomat, described the Warm Italian Doughnut's with such poetic elegance that I found myself ordering one. Reader, I devoured it, tears of joy streaming down my face, while Serj nodded knowingly in the background, like a mentor watching his pupil achieve greatness.

In conclusion, Serj is not a waiter. He is an experience. A legend. A national treasure. If Olive Garden ever creates a Hall of Fame, Serj’s apron should be the first item enshrined within.

Go to Olive Garden. Ask for Serj. And prepare yourself.“

“I placed a catering order here and I have nothing but great things to say. The customer service was terrific, the food received rave reviews and the price point was equivalent to the quality of the food. They were accommodating and really easy to do business with. We will definitely be ordering catering again and I now have a excellent restaurant to visit as well.“

“My daughter in law bought me a large new England salad 3 weeks ago . I ate 2 days off of it. It was the best. So I invited my friend and neighbor to join me today. A new restaurant that is friendly and let us talk and never rushed us. I will definitely go back. Thank you for a wonderful lunch. You are all good chefs.“

“After moving to the area, Nosh Café and Restaurant has quickly become one of my favorite places to enjoy brunch in Springfield. They offer a fantastic selection of vegetarian and vegan options which can sometimes be hard to find. Additionally, the atmosphere is both fun and relaxing with consistently friendly and welcoming staff. If you like to read or are looking for a new cookbook, Nosh has quite the selection of books available for purchase.

My personal recommendations:
- Nosh the Rainbow Sandwich
- Namaste Burger
- Falafel Burger
- Any of their pastries
- Seasonal Coffees - Current Fave: Salted Caramel Oatie“

“After a long day and camping the next day, the last thing I wanted to do was make dinner. I decided to call into GiGi's in Westfield for a meatball grinder and their tortellini soup. I must admit that I am picky about meatballs as most places tend to be full of bread and don't' have much of a taste. Gigi's meatball grinder was excellent and a "Shout Out" to the chefs. Their soups, salads and pizza I have had and recommend them as well. The counter staff was very pleasant on the phone and upon pickup as well. I will order again and highly recommend Gigi's to my family and friends.“

“I will be coming back here again to try other things on the menu“

“Hands down BEST CFA in the area! Food always comes out hot, fast, and delicious! Staff is friendly and frequently see the owner’s presence in the restaurant.

Aside from the above, there are several things that set this CFA apart from the rest (Chicopee specifically):

1. I consistently see the owner, Colby passionate about their business and working to inspire their staff - including witnessing him train and provide orientation for the new staff where he maintains a genuine positive and upbeat attitude every time

2. This CFA frequently offers special events and/or rewards (Sunrise surprise, Bingo nights, Offers to try new items, etc)

3. They actually provide you with the number of sauces you request and never short you

4. Lunch/Dinner items can be ordered during breakfast

I could go on, but you get the point. We will be back!“

“Me, the Mrs. and our youngest son dined in after Mass one Thursday evening. Our server was very attentive, and she took very good care of us.
The food was very tasty and delicious. We enjoyed the nostalgic and comfortable atmosphere. A good time was had by all.“

“Best pizza in the area. The young men that work there are so kind and respectful. Especially Erik, he’s my favorite“

“Very good food and Great Music“

“I feel it’s important to share Three Figs is under new management and has made quite a turnaround. I waited until I experienced several successful visits before writing this review so I could be certain in my recommendation. I’ve now dined in a small group, a larger group, in the dining room, in the bar and as part of a civic group banquet in the back room. Each time, I have been pleased and satisfied. The food has been delicious (both regular menu and specials) and the service prompt & exceptional. I find the atmosphere warm & welcoming, reminding me of Cheers (the neighborhood place where everybody knows your name). Our dinner this past week was a positive experience in specific ways. We didn’t have a reservation and the parking lot was packed. Yet our wait was surprisingly short, and enjoyable at the bar with friendly service. Once in the dining room, our server was kind, helpful and happy…and very accommodating when a substitution was requested on an order at our table. The manager even helped serve our plates and made sure we were all enjoying our experience. Noting that the staff worked well together and were all happy…it implies that working there must be positive for them as well. The restaurant itself was also very clean and comfortable. In the past, I could not have shared these same words and had nearly given up on this local, convenient spot. So it pleases me very much to see the new management has turned it around. Having a great spot so close by is appreciated. Congrats Three Figs…your efforts are worth it!“

“Called in an order, they delivered promptly. The items I ordered were correct; tri sampler, one slice of cheese pizza, one slice of cheese pizza with bacon and broccoli. However, I ordered the sampler because the website stated the jalapeño poppers had cheddar but they are in fact cream cheese based. I would have gotten something else if I had known that. Pleasant woman on the phone. I hope everyone working there has a great day, I know first hand how hot it gets working in a pizza shop in the summer.“

“I'm a fan of their pizza, and it's one of a few places where I can get the one I want - eggplant, mushroom and anchovy! I also like their Liberty Special Grinder (lots of vegetables) - I know I sound like a vegetarian but I'm not, LOL.“

“As a local business owner that frequents Anthony's Restaurant, I've yet to have a less than great experience. Many locals truly appreciate the quality the owner puts into his authentic dishes. The pizza is always great, with generous toppings, the meatballs are homemade and flavorful, the sauce is also taseful and the dishes are plentiful! The owner has been in the business for decades and truly cares deeply about thir customers experiences and is very friendly. This restaurant includes a family effort, they provide a clean and positive family experience and local business love their food as well. I know personally, because I provide gift cards on behalf of business relationships in the area & their always happy with their experiences. I recommend giving them another try - to those who had unfortunate past experience, they've got a better crew than they once had. Keep in mind it's been profoundly challenging these past few years on small businesses & good help dosen't come easy.“

“So fresh and delicious! #7th Day Give Back Event to benefit local food banks!“

“If they had a zero star I would had given it first of all the manager gave my order to someone else than he refused that he wasn't gonna make another until I put some common sense into him this place has the worse customer service by the management ever this experience was awful on how they treat people on top of that I handle it without an argument like he did it was very unprofessional of him never again I will come here it's just sad they have people like that running this place to the ground no wonder they don't even make it to a 4 star place its disgusting“
