Dobutsu Reviews
500 Seneca Street, Buffalo, NY, USA
If you are looking for the freshest seafood in town and cocktails that are to die for then Dobutsu is your new go-to. Pronounced Dō-Boot-Sue, the dishes give Asian comfort and Pacific Island vibes with the most flavorful poke and noodle dishes on their menu. The small plate items include a rotating Bao and shumai that to date have not disappointed. Owners Connie and James really combined expert design with professional culinary experience to create a beautifully well thought out space with some of the best dishes in town. The cocktail menu is expertly curated and the mixologists are a blast to be around and are super attentive. Reserve a spot at Dobutsu and their sister restaurant Toutant to make for a weekend full of flavor!
