Stephen Starr’s Buddakan is a spectacular restaurant featuring exotic flavors of modern Asian cuisine with creativity and drama. Bon Appetit notes, "The mostly white space is striking, with a lit-from-within communal table in the middle of the room, a waterfall & a ten-foot, candle-bedecked Buddha. The religious icon watches over hip customers indulging in pan-Asian cuisine that far surpasses the fare usually found at hot spots like this." Newsweek reports, "Design also serves as a signifier for cuisine. You walk into Buddakan, one of the hottest new restaurants in Philadelphia, past a shimmering waterfall & Japanese river stones & you say to yourself, 'ginger-miso everything' even before you see the magnificent 10-foot Buddha dominating the dining room." Named one of “America's Top 50 Restaurants" by Travel & Leisure and 'Top Restaurant for Fun' by Gourmet, Buddakan has become one of the country's most talked about restaurants.

    People are sleeping on the French toast burger foreal. Sure you can’t finish it in one sitting but then you have the other half for the best breakfast ever.

    Overall experience was amazing. I’ve always wanted to go to this restaurant when I first saw it on my instagram page. Finally my husband and I made the time to attend today, our waitress, of which I do not remember her name, not because she was not an excellent waitress, but because I’m more good with faces lolll. She was the woman who wore glasses and had a ponytail, soft spoken voice, knew that menu well, was very observant, and timely! She was very good and friendly, oh and by the way, she mentioned she’s going to Morocco lollll not to put her business out there butttt… I’m just glad we finally made it! The ambience is awesome…we truly enjoyed ourselves! We will be back soon! I will definitely post our experience

    Amada Philly exceeded all expectations! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, with a perfect blend of rustic charm and modern elegance. The service was impeccable—attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely friendly. Now, the food—absolutely phenomenal! Every dish was bursting with flavor, perfectly prepared, and beautifully presented. The jamón ibérico, gambas al ajillo, and pulpo a la gallega were standouts, but honestly, everything we tried was exceptional. The paella was rich, aromatic, and perfectly cooked, and the selection of Spanish wines complemented the meal flawlessly. Whether you’re looking for an intimate date night, a celebratory dinner, or just an unforgettable dining experience, Amada Philly is a must-visit. We’ll definitely be back soon!

    This was one of my favorite restaurants I’ve been too in the southeast PA area, Philly and media included. The food came out extremely fast and was fine dining quality with unique dishes. The beef tartare, lobster crepes, duck entre, and fried cheesecake were all amazing. They also accommodated our 1 year old daughter with a high chair.
