" Our experience at Buddakan was nothing short of amazing! From the moment we stepped inside, the energetic vibe of the place was refreshing. The service was top-notch; our server helped us navigate the extensive menu expertly. The edamame dumplings were divine and the black pepper beef was cooked to perfection. The portions were generous, which made us feel like we got our money's worth. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves Asian cuisine with a twist! " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, Buddakan made for a beautiful evening out with good food and excellent service. The atmosphere was buzzing, perfect for socializing. I enjoyed the dim sum but expected a bit more authenticity from the cocktails. They hit the spot for the price though, so I guess it balances out. I would like to return and try more dishes next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had dinner at Buddakan last week and it was an experience to remember! The restaurant was buzzing with energy and the modern decor added to the overall vibe. I was blown away by the oxtail dumplings which were bursting with flavor. Our server was a gem, catering to our every request. Although slightly overpriced, I felt it was a worthy splurge for the night out. Would definitely recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" We celebrated my friend's birthday at Buddakan and it was an incredible evening! The ambiance was luxurious and perfect for a fancy night out. We were so well taken care of by our waiter, who made sure we were happy and satisfied. The food was mostly delicious, especially the sweet and spicy chicken. I’d recommend it without hesitation, just be aware that it is a bit loud during peak hours! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had heard rave reviews about Buddakan, so my expectations were high when we finally went. The setting is exceptional, and it makes for a stunning backdrop for any occasion. Our waiter was attentive and helped us choose dishes that best paired with our drinks. Unfortunately, I found a few dishes, like the pork buns, lacking in flavor. While I enjoyed my evening, I hoped for more authenticity in the dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" My recent visit to Buddakan left me with mixed feelings. The setting is undeniably stylish, with elegant decor and a lively vibe. Our server was attentive and helpful. Unfortunately, the food felt more focused on style rather than authenticity. The dumplings were particularly underwhelming in flavor. It’s worth noting, however, that the cocktails were superb! I just wish the food had more authentic representation. " (*Curated Review*)

" Buddakan impressed us with its stunning decor and lively atmosphere, ideal for celebrations. The food, however, was hit or miss. Some dishes lacked authenticity, especially the fried rice which tasted more like American takeout than gourmet. The service was excellent though, and the staff was friendly, making it a pleasant visit overall. " (*Curated Review*)
