    I hosted a business dinner here. Food and service were fantastic. Ambiance amazing. My only observation/caution is the the tables are very close together and each has a lit, real wax candle on them. I almost set myself on fire a few times getting up from and sitting down at the table. The tables should be separated a bit more so as to avoid a serious burn.

    We loved our experience at Buddakan! Great service and food- even if they don’t put the sticky rice in a crab shell anymore. Would definitely return!

    The food is always top-tier, and your waiters are always great. However the maître d’ and the rest of the staff that helps suits you… Are ridiculous. We arrived at 9:45 for our reservations. A party of 10 and we arrived on time… We didn’t get seated until 10:40 PM If the food wasn’t so outstanding, and my party size wasn’t so large, we would’ve left. This is also not isolated I’ve gone there before with parties of six and parties of eight and we always experience a ridiculous weight time before being seated.
