And the margaritas! Wow. They know how to make a delicious margarita! The service was friendly and attentive. Atmosphere is festive but the lighting was very bright.

Tastes Beria tacos and a carnitas verde enchilada were both well prepared juicy and plenty of sauce. Next time I have a hankering for Mexican we'll gladly make the trip again.

The pitcher was filled with ice, as were our punt glasses, but there was probably 3 shots of tequila anyway.

On a spring evening, we needed a place for dinner near UMass. Since this had a good rating and an…read moreinteresting menu, we ventured in. The owner ended up being our server and was just lovely -- We had Ensalada de temporada con Frutos Rojos, Cochinita Pibil al Plato, Pastel de Choco, and maduros. The owner asked if I wanted salsas -- and of course I said yes! The salsa macho was delicious --'smoky' and rich while the picante one was great on the pastel de choco. My husband though was truly blown away by the maduros which tasted like ones he had in childhood in PR (the best he's had in forever). When we left, we told the owner how much we enjoyed the meal, and he really did seem touched. Then when we told our son about the place, he was stoked and said he cannot wait to visit. Great find!

Bueno Y Sano is a well-known employee owned business that has been in Amherst Center for more than…read more20 years. I have visited many times in the last two, and I am proud to report how delicious the restaurant's foods are, how they have a variety of prices on the menu for any taste, and how their horchata is delicious. First of all, be mindful that there's limited accessibility into Bueno y Sano. There's steps leading up into a dual pull doorways, which is nice and quaint in historic Amherst. Inside, there are also steps leading from the entrance up to the clerks' cash register and kitchen along with salsas, a soda machine, a freezer, and the restrooms. There's still outside dining if you can visit with a friend who can help get your meal inside. The quality is absolutely worth it. Bueno y Sano has likely been around for so long because their meals are consistently bright, rich, and flavorful. Keeping cilantro fresh has been a challenge for me, since I surely could use it more. For Bueno y Sano, they must have some of the freshest vegetables in the valley to consistently cook and serve them tightly wrapped in durable but soft burrito tortillas. There are many other options on the menu if you'd prefer other flavors, too, as I recall an Asian-like burrito on the menu, as well as a beyond-beef grilled burrito. Yes, there's salads and more, I perhaps, just enjoy their burritos too much to choose another! I didn't mention the horchata again simply because it's another beloved flavor on their menu of drinks. One day, when I'm a traveled expert in horchata, I'm sure I'll come back to tell you why Bueno's *es tan bueno.*

Bueno Y Sano is a casual Mexican-inspired restaurant focused on burritos, bowls, quesadillas, and…read morecustomizable meals with a variety of ingredients and dietary options. We walked into a space that feels centered around quick, fresh meals where you can build something based on your preferences. The interior is bright and functional, with a relaxed, unpretentious energy that makes it a convenient spot for a filling meal rather than a traditional sit-down Mexican restaurant experience. The layout is practical and efficient, designed for counter ordering and quick turnover, and the steady flow of students and locals reflects its role as a neighborhood staple for a fast, hearty bite. The burritos are the main highlight. They are generously portioned and have a good mix of fillings, making them a satisfying option when you want something hearty. We ordered a few different combinations and found the chicken and steak options well seasoned, with the fillings layered evenly so each bite had a good balance of protein, rice, beans, and sauces. The different combinations allow for a lot of variety, and options like vegetarian fillings and different salsas make it easy to customize. The quesadillas also stood out as a strong choice, especially because the cheese and fillings work well together, with the tortilla getting a nice crispness on the griddle that added texture to the melted filling. The menu has a wide range of options, including vegetarian and other alternative choices, giving the restaurant more flexibility compared to places that only focus on a few standard items. Some dishes can feel like they need extra seasoning or sauce depending on what you order, but the ability to customize helps balance that, with the salsa bar offering a range of heat levels and flavors to dial in the meal to your preference. The service and atmosphere are simple and casual. The space has a relaxed feel that works well for students, quick lunches, or an easy meal in the area, and the ordering process is straightforward with the restaurant focusing more on speed and convenience than a full dining experience. The staff handle the steady flow efficiently, and the food comes out without much delay. Bueno Y Sano is a solid option for burritos and customizable Mexican-inspired food. The portion sizes, variety of choices, and relaxed atmosphere make it a reliable spot when you want a filling meal, offering a quick, satisfying option that works well for a casual lunch or a simple dinner without the formality of a traditional restaurant.

I've eaten here before, but this time when I came they were out of meat. No steak, no chicken…read morenothing. Literally nothing. While I was waiting in line, a woman walked slowly over to the grill and opened the plastic bags with the uncooked chicken. She started cooking it. Meanwhile, all the other containers with the cooked meat were empty. Usually someone comes over and re-stocks. Nope. The meat had to be cooked still. This was at 12:35 PM. Lunch rush. I wanted steak for my burrito, but no. The steak also needed to be cooked. There is clearly not a manager on staff who is managing everything. All of the containers for the food and the Salsa and all of the different things they put on the burrito burritos looked like they hadn't been washed in at least a week. The place was filthy. I just walked out --didn't bother.

If you're ordering drinks, they usually will call your drink out at the bar. I was surprised that they didn't have chips n salsa as a complimentary snack for the table while the food is being made. I'm assuming it's due to this not really being a seated restaurant, where a server takes down your order. They have chips n guac available for purchase. The guac actually tastes delicious. I ordered la Sopa Azteca, it wasn't too bad...if you don't like too many oils in your soup I wouldn't purchase. I ordered the Plato Durango for my entree, as well as a side of rice, and to be honest, the entree wasn't even that warm when it was brought to me. I didn't enjoy it much. It's also incredibly expensive, my meal was $35 for just the soup, rice, and entree.

It's…read moregreat for both vegans and non vegans because they offer items that are so good my family can barely tell the difference. This time we ordered a Large Blanco pizza which was great because there was plenty to take home for lunches throughout the week. I had the Tex-Mex burger for the first time. It came with a choice of house-made black bean burger, Impossible patty or Beyond patty. I chose the Beyond and I'm really happy I did because it was so good. Normally I would suggest a Cubano sandwich but they were out chick'n and waffles is great too. But today the burger really hit the spot. I had my choice of fresh greens or roasted potatoes which was a no-brainer. These potatoes are the best. I ordered a second order for my Mom to take home. She loves them. Imagine biting into a firm roasted potato skin with a velvety buttery mashed potato inside. Yeah, it's that kind of good! Today was a bonus, I accumulated enough points for a free small pizza of my choice! Heck yeah, that heats up nicely back home for lunches at work during the week. We might have loaded up on desserts... cookies, chocolate mousse, cupcakes, rice pudding, pastries. Oh yes, it's dangerous! There is seating inside and outside in nicer weather. Order at the counter and pay, take a number, find a table and they will deliver your meal to the table. Don't forget to tip your servers! Also check out their grocery and refrigerated section!

Would definitely come by again! The ambiance is very groovy and cultural and it was nice to see :) only reason I give four stars was because the price doesn't really reflect portion sizes.
