Restaurants in Amherst

“I lived in China for years and loved hot pot and Korean BBQ. This place is hands down the best dining experience I’ve had for both! The buffet had a huge variety of foods and was constantly being replenished. The staff were all extremely friendly. And you were brought to your seat by the cutest robot… We will definitely be back!”

“Outstanding, fresh sandwiches every time. A wonderful addition to Amherst.”

“Their lemon pepper wings are absolutely phenomenal!! Love their fried deviled eggs they're so delicious! The biggest Bavarian pretzel I've ever seen! Place is really cool & the staff was friendly.”

“I wanted to go someplace different for my "Belated" Birthday Dinner and I was in the mood for Italian. I needed Pasta . So, I looked on YELP & decided on "Carrabba's". I am so glad I did !!! My son & I got there around 6pm and had about a 10-15 minute wait. There was a bar to the right & most of the dining was to the left. It was clean & had a comfortable feel inside. We were seated & I had already planned what I wanted to eat the night before, so I wouldn't take forever deciding once I got there. But first, we were served delicious, soft, warm Italian bread . It was so good. We ended up getting it 3x I believe. Our waitress's name was Ashlie S. She was great !!! Very nice, friendly, helpful, funny & very easy to talk to. I order the LINGUINE POSITANO WITH CHICKEN, I got the MAMA MANDOLA'S SICILIAN CHICKEN SOUP & the CANNOLI CAKE FOR 2 for dessert. Everything was phenomenal !! The pasta was so light but with a burst of amazing flavors ! The soup was so good & with huge pieces of chicken in it. Yummmmmmy !! The Cannoli Cake was very good & because my birthday was yesterday, Ashlie gave me a few scoops of vanilla ice cream with syrup & a little birthday candle in it. She was so sweet. Everything was just perfect ! I had an amazing experience here tonight . I found the prices to be reasonable , at least for what I got. We had quite a Long waiting time to get our food, but it was soooo worth it ! They have a special deal going on. I don't know if it's temporary or always going on, but it is a great deal. Whatever the price of something you order for in the restaurant, you take home ANYTHING for less for $10.00. No matter what the regular price. I took home another Linguine Positano,but without the chicken. So now I have an amazing lunch & dinner for tomorrow, since I didn't even finish my pasta there. We also received extra fresh bread to take home. 100% satisfaction on the trip. Also, the ladies room was very clean & smelled good. (That never happens ) I will most definitely be returning to this Carrabba's & I hope I get the wonderful Ashlie S. as my server again. She was full of life, unlike a couple others I saw that looked like they were ready for bed. lol”

“Food is amazing and our servicer was knowledgeable on wines!”

“We drove all the way from Mississauga, Ontario, to visit Olive Garden in Buffalo, and it was absolutely worth the trip!

A special thank you to our server, Alexis, for making our visit such a great experience. We were a group of 11, and despite everyone arriving hungry, she handled everything with incredible kindness, patience, and efficiency. She was attentive, friendly, and made sure everyone had what they needed throughout the meal. It’s not easy serving a large group, but Alexis made it look effortless.

The food was excellent as well. I highly recommend the Stuffed Chicken and the Never-Ending Pasta—both were delicious and definitely worth trying.

Overall, the service and food exceeded our expectations. Alexis truly made our family gathering even more memorable, and we really appreciate all her hard work. Thank you, Alexis! We look forward to visiting again.”

“Today I was nearby and tried their food for the first time. The personal pizza was so delicious. Mine included red sauce, mozzarella, spinach, pepperoni, and sweet peppers. Inside the building was nice, even though I did take out instead of dining. The mens restroom was clean, and thank God they had paper towels rather than the air drying machine (for touching the door handle afterwards). There was a friendly young lady at the front register also. My only recommendation is adding basil to the pizza topping menu. I'll definitely return here regardless.”

“We have been in Buffalo 10 days. This is by far the best food we had so far. We will be back.”

“Absolutely loved the brunch there today! The smoked salmon benedict and esspresso cheesecake! Can't wait to go back!”

“The food here is tremendous (wings are on par with Bar-Bill and they have a great fish fry), but one word of caution - do not expect to be able to order meat on Friday’s during Lent. Long time regulars are probably well aware of this policy but we were caught a bit off guard. Given that they were absolutely packed with people ordering the fish fry, it makes a lot of sense, just something to be aware of.”

“Blue Bull is a great casual bar with great food & great atmosphere”

“Went to the Amherst NY location for my birthday on September 30th, our waitress Rachel was fantastic! She’s extremely personable, knowledgeable and caring. The manager is also excellent. My hubby ordered a blooming onion that Rachel reordered on her own, the second one was perfect! The manager even came out and spoke to us. We weren’t and didn’t complain at all but they made sure our visit was memorable and it was. I highly recommend this location, food, service and staff was excellent! Thank you for a wonderful experience 😊kudos to The Outback Amherst, NY staff!🎉”

“Best DIY bowls! I love that you can fully customize your own malatang or hot pot bowl, with pricing based on weight. The staff is always very kind and accommodating, and I also love that they offer fruit teas and a variety of other drinks. Definitely recommend this place !!”

“I’ve been going here with my partner for almost 10 years. We had one of our first dates here and I can never get enough of the vibe or the food! Awesome for casually going out to dinner and perfect for date nights :) here’s the recipe for my favorite sauce I make!
Add to a bowl:
• Minced garlic
•Cilantro
•Green onion
•Peanut sauce
•Sesame sauce
•Mustard sauce
•Hoisin sauce
•Soy sauce for salt
•Top with crusted peanuts, tweak the recipe to your taste and enjoy!”

“Bad bad experience. I was served and finished my dinner before my wife got any of what she ordered. Flagged down several people with restaurant uniform on and was totally ignored. Asked for the bill and waited ten minutes before I had to flag down a person to pay. We’ll never go back, ever!!”

“Great atmosphere and staff. Been coming to this location for 5 yrs. and will continue coming. Thank you!!!”

“Thank you Insomnia Cookies for delivering this sweet treat to my daughter on her birthday! 🍪 🥳”

“I ordered from them for the first time, and I am very impressed. They delivered on time, and the spicy wantons and stinger sandwich were delicious! The prices are good, and the menu selection is vast, so I am curious to keep trying more items, I strongly recommend them, and the delivery hours are unbeatable.”

“Found this randomly when I was traveling. Stopped because of the awesome name, and it certainly was Naan-tastic! Had a Tikka paneer rice bowl, and it was so delicious. My only complaint is you don't have locations in Massachusetts where I live ❤️ 1,000 Stars!”

“I love crumble! Their cookies are always slammin. My son and I split a 4 pack often. We cut each cookie in 4s and put them in ziplock baggies. They last us for days.”

“10/10 best banh mi in buffalo.”

“Walking into this bakery and seeing that I could eat ANYTHING that I wanted -- that I didn't have to be scared that I'd get sick, that I didn't have to limit myself to just one or two items that might not even be what I wanted -- y'all, I almost started crying. Just the relief of it, and knowing that someone cared enough to turn their entire bakery gluten-free. That means so much more than you can imagine. And the food was so good that we went here three times during our week-long stay in the area. In fact, we plan to order from them and have it shipped to us now that we're back home. Highly recommended!”

“Best food ever! I keep coming back”

“Best CAFÉ ever 💜 drinks are excellent and very affordable! Beautiful scenery, very welcoming and feels like home. Highly recommend ! Please help us support Alice's dream”

“So glad he got his own little space you can eat inside and also of course take it to go. There are tables probably about five or six with chairs their coolers for a drink they also make smoothies. The food is hot and fresh always a 10 out of 10 experience.”

“The vibes were great, and our food was beyond amazing. Everything was hot and came out quickly. Our server Dominic was upbeat and made our experience lively 🖤”

“My husband ordered me a German chocolate cake for my birthday and it was absolutely delicious! It reminded me of the cakes I would get when I was a kid so it took me right back to a taste of my childhood. Thank you so much! We will be ordering again!”

“We had an issue recently with the take out service at Tullys in Fairmount which was a rare occurrence. The food is always consistent and service prompt. I felt it was important to share my experience with management as I knew it was not typical of this location. I was called by Allen the manager who had been a friendly face for years. He was very apologetic of the situation and appreciative of my feedback, he wanted to make it right and advised me to ask for him when we decided to dine in again. We went on a typical busy Friday night. We’ were greeted and almost immediately sat. Before our meals touched the table he came over to advise me that one of our meals was on him as a courtesy. Allen is an important part of the Tullys family and the Fairmount location. He is always friendly and cares that his customers leave satisfied. The food was nothing less than delicious, tenders and fries came out cooked perfectly and within 10 minutes of ordering. Great Job Allen and Fairmount Tullys team!”

“When I visit Buffalo, I always have to stop in for Duffs wings. I was there today 2-27-2024 with friends from high-school”

“The food was outstanding! Service amazing! Beautifully remodeled, my husband and I will definitely be back ????”

“Food was great. Seating area needed attention. Tables very messy”

“Clean, the service was very friendly especially Joe. The food was great the chicken was fresh off the grill, seasoned well and the wrap was bigger than I expected. Will stop by again next time I’m in the area.”

“I didn’t get the name of our server but he was a tall young man and he was amazing. He was juggling multiple tables at the same time during rush hour and was very attentive. Food was delicious as always.”

“tried it for the first time today. I have to say I wish I would have tried it earlier. great food that's filling and great staff. we will be visiting again.”

“My daughter and I tried it for the first time. And the quality of the chicken is very good. Wide range of flavors . E picked 4 different flavors to try and all have been great. Friendly service and helpful explaining what is in certain items that we were trying for the first time. We'll definitely be going back.”

“Having lived in Texas for over 20 years, we’ve eaten at countless Mediterranean restaurants, and this easily ranks among the top five—if not number one—for both food quality and portion size. If you live in the area or are visiting Niagara Falls, you simply cannot afford to miss this place!”

“This place is a hidden gem! Great food, wide variety of menu choices, and exceptional customer service. I highly recommend ordering from here.”

“Stopped for the first time today! Got the Maui Mix and it was delicious! So much food for only $20 couldn’t go wrong! Strongly recommend :)”

“Service was fast and accurate for time of year. (Service tends to be understandably slower during prime season due to overwhelming amount visiting patrons) Staff was friendly and respectful as always. This establishment is my go to place as it is closer to my home compared to the other Andersons. Highly recommend.”

“Very good pizza & I don’t like buffalo style pizza like that! This was really good. I got the stinger (has chicken and steak) & chicken finger pizza both were really good!! Got those two of the speciality slices, a drink, and a cookie for 18$. The ingredients are good quality too!! Will be back and recommend it”

“Endless fries soda refills All around great place”

“Second time ordering from here and it’s my new fav for subs and pizza. I haven’t given much ratings for the atmosphere since we always order take out.”

“The staff was friendly, the venue was very clean with pretty decor and the food was amazing!! This Detroit Foodie will definitely be back!😋”

“I really love coming here because they're so consistent. You know it's going to be good and taste the same no matter when/ what you order it and I love that!”

“The food is fantastic. I had a chicken souvlaki breakfast and it was delicious. The chicken was very tasty and tender. The eggs were cooked perfectly, and the potatoes were seasoned beautifully. Charla, our server was very friendly and efficient. It is worth the drive from the city.”

“7Brew Amherst NY is outstanding. The brews are fantastic and although the line may seem long at times , it moves quickly. The young folks who work there are personable and fun. Highly recommend!”

“Great service tonight, we had a party of 13ppl. Waitress was patient and kind. Food as always was great. The Waitress knew I wasn't fond of raisins so I got my rice pudding raisin free.”

“NEVER disappointed! The meal is always well prepared and made with love!”

“amazing food. great atmosphere and fantastic wait staff. I had the Western Cheddar omelet and it came with 3 full sized pancakes. delicious!”

“First time trying, and I must say as a PA resident this place definitely does very well with Boba tea and I actually don't care for it. Tried one, and got another!”

“2026, July 13, 2026, 1:31 pm. Just a note for UBER drivers. I've been in the restaurant/ catering industry for a long time. 'Nothing Bundt Cakes' is at a higher level & quality than your regular fast food joints. When you pick up here please take serious note on the bakers instructions on how to place and deliver their products. I have heard that cakes have been turned over because of reckless drivers. 'Nothing Bundt Cakes' creates works of art that need special care for their ultimate presentation. They are good at what they do and we need to ensure that that's what is represented. I've personally brought products from here and I can attest to their quality. Think before you pick up. Can you make sure that when you pick up that it is secure? Let's go!”

“To experience with my food 18$ I not believe it”

“This place is amazing!! The food is top notch and the staff is always friendly, professional and accommodating. Couldn’t recommend this place more!! My 5 year old even ordered an extra sushi roll for his lunchbox!”

“My daughter and I went here for the first time today and it was GREAT!

First of all, the place was nice and clean. The staff was super friendly, efficient and just great.

And then the food. It was quickly made, warm and delicious and NOT a rip off.

Two regular customers were made today.”

“Best Chinese food in Buffalo area so far! The eggplant with minced pork and sesame chicken were very delicious. The chicken was so crunchy and had a lot of white meat and no fat/gristle. We ordered a lot of food and everything was tasty and reasonably priced. The staff were friendly and working very hard.”

“Phenomenal service with a smile food is always hot delicious and very appealing plating”

“I love this special family also... great picture”

“Heck ya baebi this place be poppin and lockin, I dig it yo”

“Can't really rate atmosphere cause I order on line, but the person on the phone also friendly. Great food me and my daughter's enjoy there food pizza, wings and fries.”

“Came in to a fresh clean restaurant. Before we placed our order we saw the employees talking sanitary precaution before making food! Brook took our order and was very professional and nice. She allowed us to take our time when we were indecisive and showed no signs of frustration through facial expression nor body gesture! My wife was never a fan of Arby’s but this whole experience turned her out she said in which she’ll go out of her way for anything she wants and just added this to her list! This whole store needs raises!”

“My first time going into the restaurant. Very good meal that was very flavorful! Just a gem tucked away in a small strip mall in Clarence, NY. Be going back there to taste their other menu items!”

“THANK YOU so much for your generous donation to Our Lady of Peace church’s Wines Around the World Event. We greatly appreciate your donation. With out your support we could not help the Breast Cancer Network, Sleep in Heavenly Peace and St. Lukes. Support Local Businesses!”

“The food is excellent here, it was super busy. Took about 15-20 mins to get my food. Other than that I would eat here again.

It's hard to find places open late for eating. I visited after my 2nd shift ended and got there around 1230am. Didn't get my food till about 10min 1am.”

“This has become my go to lunch place. The bowls are VERY large considering the price. The ingredients are fresh and delicious. I can have my bowl created and be out the door often times in less than 5 minutes. The staff is very chill. I have been coming here 2 - 3 times a week now because it just makes sense!”

“Today was super busy, line out door around the building due to 3.14 day. My online ordered was prepared and waiting when I arrived. Tasty as always. Utensils etc missing however”

“yummy ice cream! let's you try before you buy so you know you will like it.”

“The BEST Chinese food I’ve ever had! If you are even considering ordering Chinese food, order from Golden Wok. The rice is authentic and flavorful. The orange chicken and General Tso’s chicken are saucy with the perfect amount of spice, flavor, and veggies. The crab rangoons are crispy perfection and the egg rolls are crunchy and delicious. The portion size is enough to have leftovers and the food is so good that I don't ever want to order from any other Chinese food restaurant. Find your favorite dish and give it a try because you will not be disappointed.”

“We had a fabulous time today! The drinks & food were superb! We will be back! Thank you”

“Obsessed with this place! I come here practically every day for lunch and there’s a reason I keep coming back. Firstly the staff is FANTASTIC everyone is so friendly and helpful. Truly the sweetest people and you can tell their management works hard to ensure customers happiness. Secondly, the food is delicious, highly recommend the Southwest chicken & purple rice bowl. It’s always a pleasant experience.”

“went here for the first time and satisfied my craving for a burger and fries! can't find fresh cut fries at very many places... would go again when I get another craving...very tasty 😋”

“I ordered a giant Mike’s Philly Cheesesteak and it was absolutely wonderful. Zak and the rest of the stuff were super kind and made my sub quickly and effectively. Prices are all fair and I will definitely be returning.”

“Bocces on Hopkins - 5 stars because I always love the food. A better system to determine who is there first for a take out order would be good. Even as simple as enter from the right, there’s no direction and it’s a little tense in there!”

“This is my favorite place to eat in the area. I like the buffet because I want to eat and be on my way without waiting. The food is good and I have no complaint with service. I like shrimp and shellfish and there is a good selection of that as well as several choices for chicken.”
