Lili's Restaurant

"I ordered #14. I have not had noodles this good for more than a decade. The noodles were freshly made by hand and you can see them being made from scratch in the kitchen. The beef toppings on the noddles melt in my mouth. Oh amazing!"

"Best chinese food in Amherst! Portions are big, so expect leftovers. Also: Remember to pay at the counter and put your bowls in the dish bin."

"My daughter and niece highly recommend this place. Unfortunately, Monday was their resting day. We finally get to get this place on Tuesday. It’s definitely worth the wait. The restaurant is very small with just a few tables for dine-ins. The entire menu is a giant poster on the wall with a picture for each menu item. This makes ordering a breeze. The setup of this restaurant is very simple and it’s right behind the counter for customers to see. A small counter for making the noodle, two large pots to cook the noodles and cooking the dishes. A showcase to store all the garnishment and a small space to prep dishes before serving. After receiving a beef noodle soup order. Someone brings out a few prepared doughs, roll it a few times to flatten it to the proper thickness, cuts it, handle pull it and then puts it in a pot of boiling water to cook. Simultaneously, another person brings out a container of beef noodle soup stock to heat up. The noodle and the beef soup gets mixed in the bowl with garnishment and it’s ready to be served. The man in charge at the counter is the owner. An immigrant from ShannXi (陕西) long time ago. Friendly fella."

"This restaurant was a unique dining experience. The food here was absolutely delicious. We were able to enjoy the dumplings, their famous noodle dish and their fried rice. The food was served fresh and fast. There was plenty of free parking in the back of the strip mall. I am looking forward to going back again soon."

"Lili's is a unique Chinese restaurant experience with the famous hand pulled noodles. I enjoyed dumplings and scallion pancakes as well as several other dishes overall, not as spicy as I expected. The service was very friendly, the seating is very Spartan and extremely limited for dine in. For the past 4 years this has been my daughter's most favorite restaurant in Amherst."
