This was my first time visiting the west side bazaar! There are many options within the building. I chose to eat at Williams Kitchen and it was delicious. I think because of the set up of the area, the wait time seemed atypical but actually it was typical of any Korean restaurant. Regardless, the wait was worth it. I got the beef bulgogi bento box, everything was delicious and I’m excited to take others here to try! Besides the bulgogi, what really stood out was their fried dumplings, the kimchi, and the fishcake slices, I’m just a sucker for all three of those things!

Some of the best Korean food in the Buffalo area. Delicious food. The crispy chicken was amazing - very fresh and crisp with a wonderful sauce. The portions are also very generous for the price with a whole separate container for rice, egg, and lettuce with the main dish. I’d highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a filling, delicious, quality meal at a great price.

Such a great business model overall. We came here on a cold, blustery winter day. It was amazing to have some interesting food options to settle on. We decided to go with Williams Kitchen. The spicy pork was really good!
