House of Teriyaki — Restaurant in Amherst

First visit (35$ish, including tip bc I dont remember the exact break down):

Wow.

The app korean fried chicken was so crispy and tasty, it was perfectly cooked. 9/10, needs a hint of spice to take it up a level.

The jjampong noodles, holy cow, I looked at it and was already ready for a quality bite. Then it hit me, there was a surprise smokiness to it that blew my mind. I got it 5/5 spicy and enjoyed every bite from meat to noodle to veggies. Undeniably a 10/10

The sushi we got was lack luster in comparison to the other amazing choices. But that may be because it had cream cheese and I didn't know that's not what I enjoy in sushi. 4/10 (heavily biased so I wouldn't consider this grade to be valid myself)

Service: the waitresses were fast, attentive, and kind. And our food came out timely with quality.

It's family owned I believe so go and give it a try.

I went with my gf (she's Korean and approves of the food too, but above are my opinions).

Second visit (50$, not including tip):

Ordered the Korean Fried chicken again. Im moving that from a 9/10 to a 9.5/10 out of the consistency of the dish. Again it delivered, just like the first time and was so good.

Had the Jjampong seafood noodles again. 10/10, although the smokey surprise factor wasn't there for me since this was the second time I was having it. It was still consistent, good portions, tasty, and perfectly spicy for me at 5/5 spiciness.

Crunch roll sushi was well made standard sushi. In contrast to the my first visits sushi I much prefer this one. 7.5/10, I have no suggestions to offer. Just a standard good honest sushi to compliment a meal if you want a bit more.

Korean seafood pancake was crispy and tasty, needs a little more shrimp, but enjoyable 8/10.

Service 10/10, no variance.

Above are my opinions only.

Took my friend for the first time and my gf again in this second visit and he agrees with me and my gf this is the best place we've been to thus far in our 3 years of on-campus university in amherst, for both the food and the experience.

Keep up the standard. I'm a fan.

IN RETROSPECT I AWARD AN EXTRA STAR FOR BEING LOCAL. SO 6 our of...

While living in the Pioneer Valley there aren't as many options for Asian restaurants as in Boston, but I have so many fun memories of meeting with my friends here with my friends for Lunch and Dinner to catch up on life. We didn't have cars, so it was extremely convenient that this place was right along the North Amherst/Sunderland Bus Route.

When I've gone during lunch, I enjoyed the lunch specials, which come with a soup and salad. I've tried the H.O.T. box which comes in a cute bento box. It has the standard chicken teriyaki with some tempura veggies and shrimp with some basic sushi rolls. The prices are very reasonable and filling for $13. My favorite though was probably the Salmon Donburi. It looks so delicious just from the photo. Anyway it's not a big deal that this place does not have a liquor license since you can BYOB.

The place does tend to get quite crowded on the weekends and nights so if you go with a large group of people then, be...

House of Teriyaki. There's so much to say about this place. Between the flavors, the environment, and the service. Today we were waited on by a very nice young man. Daniel. He was pleasantly patient and intuitive to our every need. Easily the best waiter. Every single time I come here I'm absolutely blown away. Their food options especially are beyond words. The chicken fried rice is best here than literally anywhere else I've been. I also have a wonderful place in my heart for their ginger pork. Oh. They're ginger tea blends perfectly with every single dish, providing a pleasant subtle cleanse of your palate refreshing every bite you take allowing you to savor the flavor of each and every bite. Finally just in case you don't believe me. I travel just about an hour just to eat here as...
