We have been excited to try KDara Noodle Bar now that they have their own freestanding location. We were able to get a reservation to celebrate my significant other's birthday and were not disappointed.
Set up in the location which previously was home to Sato Ramen on Pearl Street, KDara has a great space to operate in. KDara specializes in fresh, hand made Asian noodles which can be made into stir fry or soup dishes. You can pick your own protein, vegetarian, vegan, and gluten free options are available as well so the menu caters to different diets which is a plus when dining with a group.
We started with the cucumber salad which was fresh and spicy. I enjoy spicy cucumbers and love to add them on top of my stir fry. For mains we opted for str fried versions of the crispy egg noodles with beef and the chicken and udon. Both were delicious and flavorful. The noodles were fresh and amazing. The crispy egg noodles had a wonderful sear and still had some chew while the udon were plump, chewy and to die for. You could adjust your spice levels here and choose from a large or small portion size. We chose the large sized entrees and the amount of meat was generous but for the extra charge we didn’t feel like we got extra noodles. I’m not trying to complain but think it’s worth mentioning because you would probably want to choose the large portions for the few extra dollars.
Staff was friendly and helpful. We look forward to returning and trying more menu options.
