    Buddakan is a site to see. The restaurant itself makes a bold statement. The good news is, our experience was excellent and the food also made a bold statement. We had the pork buns (a must), black peppered beef (very tender), chili rock shrimp (a little kick) and the wild mushroom chow fun. In hindsight we regret not ordering the fried rice - but we had to leave room for dessert. Glad we did. For dessert we had the crying chocolate and the ube mochi donuts. Both were delicious hits. Hard to pick which one was better so get them both! Highly recommend. We also tried a cocktail called Blush. More of a feminine drink served pink which was delicious. I wish I had gotten our server’s name that Sunday evening because he was very helpful in making recommendations and describing the food choices. We have already recommended Buddakan to friends traveling to NY next month. A destination worth reserving.

    We have been going to this restaurant since it opened over 20 years ago and it’s so consistent in everything they do! Absolutely delicious and excellent hospitality. It’s a beautiful restaurant and an NYC staple.

    I enjoyed the food and felt like the bill was great for how much we ate, however I did not appreciate a snarky remark made from one of the staff.

    After visiting her numerous times, we’ve decided that we enjoy coming in right at opening around 5:30 PM. It is less crowded and the staff is super attentive. Our selections were amazing. We went with the jade shrimp dumpling, the lobster eggroll, and the broccoli and black bean sauce. The Blush was our cocktail of choice. Never disappoints. We were particularly happy with our experience this time. Highly recommended.
