" After hearing rave reviews, I recently tried Buffalo Kitchen, and it didn’t disappoint! The flavors were rich, especially in the beef stew. I appreciated the traditional clay pot presentation, although the beef could have been a bit more tender. The ambiance is nothing fancy, which I find charming—it feels like a family kitchen rather than a restaurant. I love how they serve free soup with every meal; it’s a little act that goes a long way. I’ll definitely be returning for more of that hearty comfort food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Buffalo Kitchen is where I often go for my Chinese food cravings. The prices are shockingly low for the portions they serve. I always get the sesame chicken which is properly cooked and very tasty. I do wish the atmosphere was more inviting, but the food more than makes up for it. It's a solid place to get a quick bite with friends or family. " (*Curated Review*)

" A friend recommended Buffalo Kitchen for lunch, and I can see why! The meals are served quickly and are incredibly satisfying. I tried the beef stir-fry and was pleasantly surprised by the generous serving size. While it’s not the finest dining experience, it’s a great spot for a hearty meal that feels like home. I would definitely return to try more items from their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a brief lunch with my partner at Buffalo Kitchen and it was overall a pleasant experience. I tried the lunch special, which came with three different entrees for an incredible price. However, some of the dishes were a bit salty for my taste. Fast service made it great for a quick meal between errands. I would say it’s worth a visit if you don’t mind a basic ambiance and just want to fill your belly with good food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Buffalo Kitchen was a delightful experience. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted warmly by the staff who made us feel right at home. We ordered a variety of dishes—my favorite was definitely the shrimp dim sum, which was cooked to perfection. The portion sizes were incredibly generous for the price we paid, making our meal feel even more worthwhile. The casual ambiance was perfect for a family outing. If you’re craving authentic Chinese food, this is the place to be. Can’t wait to come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Buffalo Kitchen definitely has its loyal patrons, and I can see why! The food is authentic and deeply satisfying. The lemon chicken was a stand-out dish, perfectly tangy and well-cooked. The only drawback is that the space can feel a bit cramped when there’s a crowd. Overall, it’s fantastic value for money, and I’ll visit again to explore their menu more extensively. " (*Curated Review*)

" Not my favorite Chinese spot, but it certainly has its merits. The food is reasonably priced and the portions are generous, which I appreciate. I ordered the clay pot rice, and while it was decent, I expected more in terms of flavor. If you're looking for a quick meal on a budget, Buffalo Kitchen can fulfill that, but don't expect anything fancy or particularly memorable. " (*Curated Review*)
