Buddakan - New York

“We were in town on a girls trip and Beau was our waiter. He delivered excellent service to us had an absolutely amazing personality and turned a normal dinner into a fantastic experience. We’re so glad to have met him and had the pleasure of his service. He is the kind of person who brings personality to a restaurant and excellent service all around. The food was absolutely amazing too big shout out to the chef! Delicious and hot and the manager who came over to us to check how everything was was also just so lovely kind to us. Finally the deserts were heavenly not sure if I can say much else! Thank you Buddakan for making our trip memorable!”

“I love everything about this place. The food, decor, service, atmosphere, staff was amazing. I went here for my 1st wedding anniversary and I could not have been happier. Everything we ordered was tasy and delicious. Even my husband who is very particular about what he eats, enjoyed the food. Usually when you eat out, the food is heavy and sits in your stomach. The food here did not do that. We ate everything on our plate. I will definitely be back again to try more of their menu.”

“Buddakan was the perfect choice for celebrating my friend’s birthday with a group. From the moment we walked in, the space felt stunning very beautiful, dramatic, and aesthetically pleasing. The ambiance alone makes it feel like a special occasion spot. We opted for the tasting menu ($110 per person), and it was absolutely worth it. The menu included a wide variety of appetizers, entrées, and a dessert flight, giving everyone the chance to try so many different dishes. Everything was flavorful, well-balanced, and beautifully presented. The food felt very Asian-authentic while still offering unique, creative twists that made each dish stand out. The cocktails were also excellent well crafted and enjoyable throughout the night. On top of that, the service truly elevated the experience. The staff was warm and welcoming, and our waitress was especially friendly, joyful, and attentive, which made the celebration even better. Overall, it was a great dining experience from start to finish. Delicious food, amazing atmosphere, and wonderful service. We will definitely be coming back and highly recommend it for group dinners or special occasions.”

“I celebrated my anniversary here, and the food was absolutely incredible. I was really surprised by how generous the portions were, every dish was perfect for sharing and truly delicious. The atmosphere makes you feel like you’re inside a castle, which made the experience even more special. I’ll definitely be back. 100% recommended!”

“The vibe and food here is great! It’s also very good for larger parties. We were a group of 10 and I was able to make a reservation without dealing with a pre fix meal or being put into a private room which I appreciated. We went family style for our dishes which worked very well. Everything we got was delicious, but the garlic fried rice, kung pao monkfish, crab rangoons and wok fried xo cheung fun noodles were my favorites. I also tried the Blush cocktail which was similar to a lychee martini. I loved it and it was perfectly sweet. Overall it was on the pricey side once we split everything, but the vibes were great for a nice night out.”
