Review by Dulce Howe

Buddakan is a gem! 🌟 We visited during Restaurant Week and were impressed by their unique vegetarian menu, perfect for our group. The atmosphere was cozy with beautiful decor.

Each course was a delight - especially the crab fried rice and cauliflower dishes! Our server, Vince, was knowledgeable and attentive, making our dining experience even better.

Though we were seated close to the kitchen’s hustle, the food made it all worthwhile. Can’t wait to return for brunch and possibly snag a better seat upstairs! Highly recommend checking it out! 😊
