THE BEST HOUSE BREWED UNSWEETENED TEA in Buffalo. The wonton appetizer is a Must. I love the crispy egg noodles with tofu and the fried rice with pork. If you want an extra app get the fresh rolls! Try any one of Jen‘s cocktails and you’ll be impressed.

We have been coming here since the original location on Main Street. So happy they opened up this spot on Pearl. It is a fantastic place to take out of town friends and show off what Buffalo is really about..fantastic atmosphere, kind staff and outstanding food.

Great location in the Dun Building basement. Parking is tough. The food is different from most Vietnamese restaurants in that different spices are used than usually are, and I just couldn't put my finger on it but it was excellent. Service was quick -it's a fun place to go to when you're downtown on a cold day.
I really can't say enough how much I love Kdara. The food is some of the most thoughtful I've had in buffalo, the flavors and textures incredibly nuanced. The cocktails were innovative and delicious, I really appreciate the usage of fresh fruit and herbs to create their teas and lemonades, you don't find that often. Jennifer, the owner, is incredibly knowledgeable about every dish they serve at Kdara and you can tell she takes pride in what she does. On this rainy Saturday night visit we tried the bean sprout salad, enoki spring rolls, wontons and the braised chicken wheat bowl. Everything exceeded my expectations. The sprout salad and spring rolls were fresh and full of flavor. The wontons were deliciously tender and came in a light savory broth. The wheat noodles had a slight nutty flavor that paired perfectly with the spicy broth and juicy chicken. The owner was kind enough to split the bowl for my partner and I so we could both enjoy. Definitely make this your next stop when you're craving a hot delicious meal to forget we live in a city that doesn't have sun this time of year.

Wow, I can't believe it took me as long as it did to come here. The food at K.Dara was phenomenal! Seriously some of the best food I've had in a while. It resides in the old Sato Brewpub location downtown, and the space is welcoming and modern. Service was prompt and helpful as I was between two menu items. I will be returning to try more items. There are some vegan and vegetarian options such as lo mein, fried rice, dumplings, and salads.

This place was awesome for lunch! Right when we walked down the steps, I immediately loved the look of the restaurant. It's in a basement with brick all over, and the bar was very cool. The waitress was super nice and friendly. I got the mushroom taro dumplings and wheat noodle broth bowl with chicken. The dumplings were amazing, and they had a soft consistency inside due to the taro which was different and nice. The wheat broth bowl was extremely flavorful and the chicken pieces were really tender. It definitely is on the spicer side though so definitely think about that when ordering. Will definitely be coming back!
