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.

I went here with a large group to celebrate my 25 birthday - we had to wait to be seated for a good 25-30 minutes, they sat us upstairs in this weird section away from the beautiful decor of the restaurant (I’d had reservations for weeks mind you), the service was HORRIBLE - they kept forgetting everything and took SOOO long to get back to our table every time, the food was ok but not worth the money at all. The drinks were decent. Oh and they don’t do anything at all for your birthday, or at least for mine. I was completely... read more

The food was very good, although some wasn’t hot and should have been. It’s a large place so the noise from the customers was high. Then you add in the music and it’s hard to hear people at your own table. The hallway where the bathrooms are the lights need to be turned way up. There were a lot of people going in the wrong bathrooms. This could lead to real problems for the restaurant.

I went there for lunch. The atmosphere was very nice and unique. The Buddha statue was the reason that got me in there. I highly recommend the lamb chops. It was well prepared and had a very nice flavor. The texture was satisfying for medium-well. The lobster fried rice went well for the flavor of the lamb chops. I would go there again and would recommend this place.
