About this business

This Pan-Asian nightspot centers around a 10½-foot gilded Buddha. Buddakan features glistening decor accented by wasabi-colored booths, two full bars, plenty of sofas for lounging, along with a 20-person community table where you can share food and conversation with friends. Chef Scott Swiderski has created a whirlwind tour of the Pacific Rim in menu form, from Garlic Grilled Shrimp with Long Life Noodle to Wok Smoked Salmon to Szechuan-crusted Tuna with wasabi sour cream.

My family and I truly enjoyed our dinner tonight. We recommend this place for an amazing experience and great food. Our server Mr. David was a “gem”. Thank you, until we return!

Great food, great drinks and great company. Had dinner with my family for my husband’s retirement, everything was awesome. Service was outstanding - Our server, Larry was excellent and we didn’t want for anything-he was right on it. I recommend trying the spring rolls, General Tso’s dumplings and Pork Dumplings - all delicious. I had the crispy shrimp as an entree, the rest of us had the lamb chops, sea bass and aged beef - all delicious. I would definitely recommend Buddakan for any occasion- well worth the trip.
