    Exceptional experience that surpassed my expectations. Ordered the Dim Sum sampler for 2 and it was an excellent decision, as every single variation was superb. Short rib melted at every bite and the Mongolian Lamb chops cooked and seasoned to perfection! Exquisite place all around!

    We had a group of 10 who decided to go with the tasting menu. For $100 each, we absolutely got our share of food. All 10 of us left raving about the experience and no one could decide what their favorite dishes were because they were all sooooo good! Our server was wonderful and we would definitely go back! The drinks were great, too!

    Have been to Buddakan dozens of times. This time it is was HORRIBLE. Noise level so high that couldn't talk to my wife (because of parties they booked). Service was terrible. Kitchen totally overwhelmed. Got so fed up left before the meal was even served. Terrible.

    Fantastic service and even better food. 2 sake, 2 appetizers, 3 entrées and 2 desserts. The pork buns and the crispy shrimp were amazing! The sweet and sour pork was something to talk about. While both desserts were great, the coconut tapioca pudding was remarkable. It was a perfect birthday date! Highly recommended it for any occasion .

    Food was excellent. Noise level is crazy high. Music is blaring which makes people have to shout to be heard. Don’t go if you want to actually talk to the people you are dining with.

    Reserved a table at 7pm. After waiting for 20 minutes we were told we would have to wait another few minutes only. 15 minutes later still nothing had happened. No apologies from anybody, staff not attentive at all. Super arrogant. Completely unacceptable. We left the place and went elsewhere nearby. Will never set a foot into the place again.
