How it is Liz
Stopped into The Rock Kitchen in East Amherst on a cold, rainy night and found the perfect cozy spot! Warm comfort food. Help yourself popcorn, good lobster roll, and the fried green tomato and mozzarella caprese stack were great options. Quick, friendly service and a local crowd at the bar. Looks and and feels like it might’ve been a former home. Chill vibe all around!

20 min wait time turned into 40, and there were empty and set tables. Definitely more bar feeling than a nice restaurant. I’m gonna point out that usually on a fish fry Friday you’ll most likely have a pleasurable fish aroma upon entry, my entry was greeted by stagnant bar drain. Plastic is a safe precautionary measure to serve food on and disposable side cups. I got a kids cup for my drink also safe. We had a broiled and a beer batter fish dinner. Coleslaw came frome a bag one of the Industries easiest side to make fresh. The slaw never had a chance to marry with dressing. Probably made 10 minutes before shift. The beer batter fish had no flavor except the oil it was cooked in. I could tell because they sent out a sample for me to try under my fish. My battered fish did have a little uncooked batter inside.
The broiled fish flavor was hidden under whatever seasoning they thought would help. Soda was weak, I had a Shirley Temple. I have seen the place for many years and well we hit rock bottom tonight.
For the location and years of being there, they must have lost their pride.

Riley took great care of us. He was very attentive and pleasant to deal with. The chicken wing soup was spicy but delicious. My pot roast sandwich was ok. Not much flavor to the meat. Sauteed onions were done perfect. My friend had a burger. She enjoyed it. The dipping sauce was great. I’d come back again for the soup alone!!

Y’all this place is amazing! Our waitress Laurie was the best she made sure we had a great visit . I had the lobster roll and fries. Ok so I live in Mississippi now coming from east coast I don’t get good seafood often but this was an amazing lobster roll one of the better I have had even from VA Beach delicious. My husband had the burnt ends tacos. He said they were some of the best different tacos he has had. Very different very good. You should try them. Cudos to the wait staff and chefs/cooks. I also need to shout out to the v
Bartender she made one of the better whiskey sours according to the hubs one of the best most consistent ones. Thank you to the staff. We will be back probably this week and definitely when we come back in July..

This place was fantastic. The food was fast and tasted amazing. The service was spectacular as they never let our drinks get empty and checked on us often. I got the lobster roll and it was great. I prefer the hot lobster with butter, whereas this was served cold style with a sauce, but would 100% devour it again.

Stoped in to see how the place has changed over the years. We were seated out side in a heated porch. The food was fantastic and ended up taking an extra order home. I have attached their menu ..

The building always looked mysterious to me, because of the black and red theme colors they use. So I finally had to come and check Rock Kitchen out. Soon as you step in you see the bar, to the left there is the hostess stand. Once you speak to the hostess, you have a choice of sitting. In the patio section, or you can dine inside. The menu offers plenty of options such as, Burgers, salads and wings. Pretty decent tasting food and would come back again.
Philly cheesesteak egg rolls- very cheesy and delicious
Cajun dry rub wings- loved the crispy the wings were cook. Rub could be a little to much for some though.
Garlic Parmesan wings- really good tasting and nice size wings
Signature rock hot and sweet- again wings cooked perfect and the sauce was really good
Cheddar burger- choice of cheese (but it’s a up charge) Burger nice size and cooks with a side of fries, plus a side of aioli dipping sauce. I used some of the sauce for my burger, it was really good.

Ordered the hot honey glaze chicken with extra potatoes (that they did great on) but the chicken…. Dry, not seasoned and the thinest piece for 18.99. this is our first time eating here and not going to lie pretty disappointed.

The French onion soup was okay, alot of croutons with little flavor. Highly recommend the burgers, wrap, and fries with their special sauce. The atmosphere is good esp for families.
