Best place on UMass Campus to eat in. Not crowded. Great food selection. Greater fruit variety and availability, especially the berries. Ice cream station lacking, they only have soft-serve. Franklin has real ice cream. But you can't have it all. The fruit is definitely more important for me.

Berkshire Dining Commons is one of UMass Amherst's Student Dining Halls, being one of the larger ones in the Southwest Student Area. Like other dining commons, they utilize a rotational menu of foods from across the world. They serve sushi and stir fry, as well as having rotational noodle soups and other foods as well. The serving area is a bit confusing, but you get used to it after a while of eating there. It has one main area and a few other areas that are not connected to the main area but still able to be distinct to know it serves food. Food is pretty good, but many of the options are served at other dining halls as well. They do typically host a few special events here, as well have a private dining hall.

Best jooje chicken kabab( Persian dish)! Their spicy tuna sushi and stir fry is also very good!

★★★★★ 5.0 Elvis Tegum · Nov 2017

The layout with different options make it convenient for all, whether in group or individual you'll find your fit. The food ooh boy, the food is so good. I still can't believe it is an university dining. World class cuisine all over the place and the buffet setting is a plus plus plus plus plus.

My favorite dining hall in UMass, perhaps together with Hamp.
