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.

King Crab Tempura and Short Rib & Scallion Pancake to start. Kung pao lobster and wasabi crusted filet for entrees! Everything was delicious as usual!! Don't forget the drinks! Shangri La & Geaux east!

Used to be one of my favorite spots but yesterday the portion sizes were small! Especially the appetizers for the prices$ The wasabi crusted filet was a little tough and it wasn't made like I previously ordered it in the past. Overall it was good at best but I could have gotten a much better steak at outback for sure. ( not kidding)

Good here is awesome. AC location better. I do not like their crab rice. They make it sticky, so I order the lobster rice when at this location. Also prefer edamame ravioli in AC over their dumplings. They are still good. Love this place. Also the drinks are decent. I had the "strength" it was pretty amazing.

Our waitress was awesome, extremely knowledgeable about the menu. It was our first time there and she was great! The edamame dumplings are to die for and will definitely have us coming back!
