Restaurants in Amherst

“Great food and great service”

“This place is awesome! I live in Columbus but I get to the area often and I love going here. It has a really cool diner atmosphere, diner level pricing but super upscale level food. Every single thing I’ve ever had there is amazing, and there are some unique recipes that are great. Staff is always super friendly. Highly recommended!”

“Amazing food and service! Best breakfast in a long time. Everything was done perfectly, the food was nice and hot! Our waitress was amazing, did not catch her name, she was so sweet! Will definitely be coming back! Thank you all and compliments to the chef!”

“Good food! Awesome beer! Highly Recommend!”

“Went there for the first time last Saturday after the JV football WIN against Buckeye and Ghost Tree did not disappoint! Drinks were delicious and brought out quickly despite how busy they were. And the pizza?! My son said it’s the only place he’s ever getting his chicken bacon ranch from now on. Highly recommend the Florentine pizza as well - it was fantastic. And you can’t go wrong with any of their carnivore options. Came back the next morning for breakfast/brunch and it was absolutely on point! Make sure you’re hungry for whatever you order (I recommend the chicken and waffles and the breakfast pizza as that’s what our table got). And thanks to the bartender for the hefty glass (and pour) on my mimosas! Will for sure be back and so happy that something worth eating at finally went in here. I was starting to worry that nothing would be able to top Church Street!”

“Took a large group of youth cheerleaders and family in today for lunch and had an awesome experience!! food and service were both amazing!”

“We ordered the Tropical BBQ Chicken pizza from Jilliano’s for lunch today, and I can say, the flavor blew us away! It was a new taste experience with plenty of toppings including the grilled chicken breast & crumbled bacon, a tasty BBQ sauce, and a hint of cinnamon that made it a brand new experience. I would highly recommend you give it a try!”

“Quick drive through service. great food, friendly employees.”

“We travel from a different city because the quality of their food is so good. Also they have the best customer service around. Highly recommend this restaurant. Thank you!!”

“The food was worth the wait!!! Burgers were cooked to order perfectly and seasoned well. The quantity of sides were geneous. Chicken philly was juicy and very good. We went and they were very busy but luckily there is alot of seating, with that in mind the servers were very busy and did a great job.”

“My three year old daughter and myself attended a princess scavenger hunt through out downtown Amherst that D’Tutanelli’s Pizza was apart of. Not only were they so kind during the scavenger hunt, but we came back late for pizza for lunch with the coupon they included and we had the best experience! Pizza was fresh and delicious and the staff was absolutely phenomenal, especially towards my daughter. We would highly recommend and will absolutely be back, thank you for a wonderful afternoon!”

“Great little Mom and Pop restaurant in the heart of historic Amherst. Always a crew of local old timers to chat with. Friendly, funny staff. Great food. Reasonable prices. We love Quarry Cafe, and try to go at least a few times a month. The food and old town atmosphere never gets old!”

“The snoogles are always delicious, and the Asiago loaf is to die for! I just love this place so much”

“The honey bee is my favorite, I order it year round! & that garlic and herb cream cheese - amazing!!! On my days off of work I drive out of my way to get coffee here (unfortunately you’re out of the way of my work route).”

“Mama Jo Pies & Strudels are the best! I am local and I buy pies for every occasion (My family loves Strawberry Cheesecake, Banana Cream, and Cherry Crumb) whether it's a birthday or holiday, Mama Jo is easy to order from online or by phone, I usually stop in once a week for a regular cream cheese Strudel and they usually always have everything I'm looking for on short notice! No better place in Ohio to get pies from! Great desserts & prices!”

“Great service! Great coffee!!!”

“Best strawberry shortcake ever 😋”

“Love my peanut butter oreo flurry!!!”

“I have been to the Tea & Honey Haven a few times now and I’m always greeted with a smile! It’s warm and comforting there and the tea is delicious. The honey speaks for itself. Nothing better than local honey. Give it a try you won’t be disappointed!”

“The chicken was extra moist and juicy. Just a bit greasy.So if you don't mind that I would say, it's the best chicken fingers in town.. fries and garlic toast were tasty..”

“we got two giant subs that were phenomenally made and the two men working had excellent customer service and were so generous and sweet. they totally made our night”

“5 out of 5 points! Do attend!”

“It was a very mediocre dining experience, but I wasn't expecting anything more than that. I was basically starving and wanted good food as fast as possible. They got the job done.”

“Wow I was blown away with the taste here. Best wings around- by far. The honey hot tub was our favorite. The Ranch dressing is made in house & it's the best I've ever had! If I could give it a 10+ I would. Thx for a great 1st. experience.”

“Big V's Ice Cream is an absolute delight! From the first taste to the last lick, every scoop is a burst of flavor and nostalgia. The atmosphere is cheerful, the service is top-notch, and the ice cream? Simply divine. Whether you're indulging in a classic cone or a towering sundae, Big V's never fails to deliver a sweet escape from reality. A must-visit destination for any ice cream enthusiast!”

“An absolute HUGE shout-out to Marcos Pizza in Amherst for donating a pizza to us and delivering it to us Amherst Firefighters while we were on a car fire this afternoon! We seriously can't thank us enough for doing that when i was ready to pay for it. Thank you for being a huge supporter! 🇺🇲🚒🚒”

“Had chicken from this place for the first time and it was very good. It was a pleasure speaking with Muhammad yesterday and the service was 10/10. The food is worth coming back for again. Thank you!”

“Drinks are very reasonably priced.
Bartenders are SUPER friendly.
Patio is everything you could ask for.

I LOVE the lady pirate statue, and the whole vibe of the place.

Jam night on Tuesday is a blast, weekend nights are just as fun!

This has become my new favorite local bar, and its because everyone here treats you like family. Very friendly people.

This place is safe for the LGBTQIA+ crowd, too!”

“Excellent as usual and freaky fast !! 😊😊😊”

“the Golden Noodle Soup bowl is Awesome, and very flavorful... Wish they had option to add Chinese vegetables to it...”

“In the area for Discover Aviation Day. Stopped for breakfast and sat at the outdoor patio with our beagle. Umbrella shaded us from the morning sun. Drive through was open, but the owner kindly opened the dining room early (before 8am) just because I was at the door. They also have partnerships with local sports teams. Great breakfast! We had the breakfast dog, a wrap, and a bowl.

Update: came back for dinner too!”

“We had this Chinese restaurant for the first time very impressed wonton soup was great sweet and sour chicken and chicken with vegetables was also very good and egg rolls very good but not a place to eat inside definitely take out only”

“Great service. Great food. Peaceful atmosphere.”
