First let me say that one of the big reasons we go there is that their music is very low. I can’t stand going into a restaurant and the music is so loud you’d think you’re in a night club. Also, my father is hard-of-hearing and Amy’s offers an ambience where he can actually hear.
Of course the food is really good. My dad always orders a big bowl of hot and sour soup, even though it very much upsets his 86-year-old stomach. I told him that he doesn’t learn, and he says that indeed he will not learn.
I always order the vegetarian lo mein and it is amazing. My mom loves the cashew chicken. For my dad we order beef and vegetables with sauce on the side because gluten doesn’t make him feel well. Mind you, the hot and sour soup I mentioned above.
Friendly and attentive staff are a bonus. Amy herself usually goes around to the tables and says hello, and it seems that most of the clientele know her because of it.
