Buddakan

Vibes- immaculate Service- 12/10 Food- Amazing!! Everything about this spot was beyond expectations. They have a beautiful lounge which was fun to take pics in. We came in a group of 15 and they accompanied our vegan options- brought out vegan food for almost every option the others got for the table. The service was absolutely amazing and the staff is so attentive and kind. Vegan food options- check out all my photos!! I am definitely returning for this vegan food!!

Very delicious dim sum sampler platter , I really enjoyed the pork flavored spring rolls and the shrimp toast in the sweet and tangy sauce was off the charts. The lobster fried rice and the chicken entree dish was just okay, everything was cooked really well but the entrees overall were very pricey. The services was impeccable, and we were never left with a dirty plate. I also loved the ambiance, the low lighting set a really romantic and relaxing mood. The chandelier room was gorgeous. I’d recommend this place if you want a slightly high end execution of Asian food and flavours.

Worth the hype. We went for a birthday party, and couldn’t believe how luxurious the restaurant felt. Dimly lit, high ceilings, intimate venue. The staff is also incredibly courteous and helpful. Our waitress was very accommodating to our dietary restrictions and gave us recommendations for Vegan Options. We had the Vegetable Fried Rice and the Crispy Tofu. Both were mouth watering. Excellent flavors that I couldn’t believe. The meal was perfection from beginning to end.

Are you ready for the 411? Here we go…took my family out for dinner for my daughter’s birthday and let me say in one word….AMAZING! First of all, the level of attention placed in the customer experience was extraordinary to me. We choose to go with the Tasting Menu IV which gave us the ultimate tasting experience with a 4-course meal. I would highly recommend this especially if it’s your first time and with a group.. Our server, Shanna, was extremely attentive to our every needs. The appetizer were a great starter…leading to the other dishes and one after the other it was more and more amazing. Everything was well seasoned and perfect to the taste. The dessert was another show stopper especially the cheesecake. The pictures taken do not even do the food just but just trust me Buddhakan does not disappoint. Great experience!

Wonderful restaurant. Ambiance, food, service! Everything was excellent. Food is very flavorful. We had smoked salmon dumplings (my favorite), oxtail dumplings, & general tso dumplings. Entrees: duck & prime rib. Side: crab fried rice. I highly recommend this restaurant!

Buddakan is probably one of the highest rated restaurants in NYC. At the entrance, you will find a check-in counter similar to those in airports. If not all members are present, you will be directed to a lounge area to wait. Once everyone has arrived, the hostess will direct you to your table after you have informed them. Seeing the dining room while walking down the stairs is incredibly beautiful. However, there are still more tables tucked away in the surrounding corners. In addition to the regular dinner menu, there is a tasting menu. It ranges from 90 to 130 dollars per person. The appetizer begins at $$ and the main course at $$$. Food is decent, the presentation is appealing, and it's a good place to hold a business meeting or a romantic dinner. Additionally, the service is excellent and attentive. Highly recommended

One of my favourite restaurants I’ve been to in the city - excellent service, great food and great vibes. The restaurant is pretty dark from the moment you get in which definitely sets the mood for chill vibes. Our waiter recommended we get a rice/noodles dish to share and a main each. We weren’t super hungry so we got a main to share and it was plenty.

The restaurant was straight out of a movie. I loved the environment and the candle on the table was a cool touch (made a romantic setting). The service was great, but some of the food wasn’t that great for the price you’re spending. The only thing I loved was the beef pancake.
