I like the roast beef at Rolando’s

If I’m in the mood for a tasty, quick, and reasonably priced burrito, Bueno Y Sano is an obvious choice. I absolutely love the burritos at El Guanaco in South Hadley Falls, but that place is not always a convenient place to get to.
Similarly, though there’s nothing quite like a roast beef sandwich from places on the north shore of Massachusetts like Nick’s Roast Beef, Kelly’s Roast Beef, etc. I never get there since it’s a few hours away. I’m happy to say that locally, Rolando’s Roast Beef and Falafel in Amherst pays quite a tribute to the “North Shore Roast Beef Sandwich”… the tangy barbecue sauce, the nice round roll, the onions and cheese– all delicious. I had a taste of Kristen’s falafel also and that was great. The fries and onion rings were good too. I just enjoyed that they use fresh stuff to make everything there. I think I spent about $6-7 for a sandwich, basket of fries, and a drink. I think that’s pretty reasonable considering the amount of food I ordered. I still have never solved the mystery of why Arby’s is so expensive. What’s the deal with that?
Anyway, one more thing about Bueno Y Sano. Did you know they did catering?! I didn’t.
