    What a fantastic decision! We were in a bit of a rush to get to our next adventure, and with long lines at other restaurants in Buena Vista, we decided to give Kawa a try. The food is absolutely terrific--fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. We had the chicken tikka masala, and I can honestly say it might be the best I've ever had. (Be sure to order the naan, too!) This place deserves a line out the door! Don't make our mistake and pass this one by--Kawa is a must-visit for anyone looking for incredible food in Buena Vista.

    Vindalo and the korma. Birani rice was excellent.

    Pretty good Indian food! The guy working was super nice and had a good vibe. I'd recommend it.

    After a monsoon came through with hail and cooler temps last week, I was craving some ramen. We…read morewere staying at Glenwood Springs Hotsprings and walked over the bridge to find Kedai. We had read some reviews that the ramen was a small portion, so I was surprised to see the good sized portion that they served us! My son got the Katsu Chicken with the avocado salad. He loved both. The husband ordered the bento box which was perfect because he couldn't decide what to get, so it was a little bit of everything. The food was great! The service was a little rushed because they were busy, but our server was personable and friendly. There was a birthday at another table, and it was fun to have the entire restaurant join in on singing. They also had a fun animal headband for the birthday girl. It was a little pricey and cost us about $120 for 4 people (not including tax) but it was good, and I'd recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

    Unfortunately, our experience at Kedai Pho was disappointing, and the reason has nothing to do with…read morethe food; however, the pho was meh. Between the two I'm a no to ever returning. We were seated for lunch when a teenager at the table behind us began making videos of herself with loud music playing repeatedly. The behavior was disruptive enough that it made it difficult for us to enjoy our meal. What made the situation more frustrating was that her parents did nothing to address it. I asked to be moved to another table and explained the situation to the waitstaff. They acknowledged my concern, but neither of the two men working made any effort to speak with the table or address the disruptive behavior. In my opinion, this is ultimately the restaurant's responsibility. Customers should not have to tolerate loud, disruptive behavior simply because other parents choose not to manage it. When you're spending approximately $70 on lunch, it's reasonable to expect a comfortable dining environment. I understand that restaurants can't control every customer's behavior, but they can control how they respond when a customer is clearly disrupting the experience of everyone around them. Unfortunately, the lack of response from the staff is the reason I will not be returning. The food may have been fine, but good customer service includes making sure all guests can enjoy their meal without being subjected to someone else's disruptive behavior.

    My husband and I stopped in for lunch. My husband had the build your own bowl and I did the lunch…read morespecial overall it was decent, but it was missing taste. I had the miso broth as my base and it just needed some seasoning or something the pork belly was on point and since my lunch special came with a choice of sushi I got four pieces and it was probably the stickiest rice I've ever had in a long time which is a good thing. The pieces of the roll did not fall apart. The location can be a little tricky to find as it's kind of hidden in the back of a smaller strip mall with other restaurants, smaller dining area so I can see on busy nights that being challenging when dining in.

    We ordered the cheese tan tan and the kimchi spicy miso. We got the udon for our 4 and 6 year old…read more On the positive side it was pretty good. I would rate it. Maybe four /four and a half. The cheese tan tan was good, probably just a bit too much on the cheese so I would stick with more of a classical ramen if I were to go back. The one thing that caught my eye that I wasn't a fan of was the pricing. I looked at a standard tonkatsu which is kind of my baseline when I'm looking at different ramens. If I wanted to add in all the vegetables that are normally standard and an egg it would go from the $17 base to almost $26 or $9 more when compared to a very comparable competitor nearby that has it priced at $17.50 for a tonkatsu with all the same base, vegetables, egg, etc. That was the reason for the option on our side to stick with the pre-selected specialties so we didn't have to jump through hoops pricing wise. Which takes me to service normally. I like to get three adult meals and split one of the adult size portion between my 4 and 6-year-old. Some places are very accommodating and will go out of their way to split it in the back kitchen so we aren't making a mess at the table. Others are kind of like, Yeah, we'll give you an extra bowl and you do you... Normally I'm not picky and I wouldn't care one way or the other, but since I was already irked by the pricing when I asked if they could do that for me in the kitchen they said " that wouldn't be very easy for the chef so I'll just bring you the bowls".. I'm glad we're doing what's easy for the chef and not for me the customer.
