The Sub & Pizza

Posted on Oct 29 in Dine In, Pizzaby thesubmanPrint

Here at the University of Mass, we have the tradition (like many people do) of going to eat lunch after Jummah. There was a week where I was giving the khutbah at the mosque in town, and the guys (my usual crew) decided to come to town and eat near the campus. After a bit of discussion and deliberation (which lasted like 40 minutes, what crew’s deliberation doesn’t take that long?), we decided to met up at “The Sub & Pizza”.

The Sub & Pizza is a family owned and operated restaurant that has been serving Amherst locals and students since 1977. They are know for having great food and service. Now, everyone in the world knows that New York has the best pizza, but The Sub comes pretty dang close to New York style pizza.

Since there were a bunch of us, we got a bunch of different things and everything tasted great. Their pizza (which I got) was good but kind of oily. The baked ziti was amazing and it helps that they give a salad and garlic bread along with a ziti that can feed 2-3 people. We also ordered the fish fillet, which was battered  fish, then was deep fried. It was delicious as well but it can’t touch the baked ziti.

Therefore, if you’re ever in the area or in a need of a Italian food fix, go down to The Sub & Pizza. It’s definitely a great place, but don’t make it too late since they close at 11 PM.
