• Asian • Old City

Booked 113 times today

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.

We were seated promptly upon arrival on the 2nd floor as requested. Our server helped to make this a very enjoyable evening. She was very knowledgeable about a menu and was able to make a very good recommendation for a wine selection. She also provided a complementary glass of champagne as it was our anniversary.

We sat outside for our anniversary dinner and the staff was so friendly and helpful the entire time. Our food came out in a decent time and was very good. The view from Parc’s outside dining is a beautiful view to have with your meal and I highly recommend it!
