Price: Expensive
• Asian • Old City

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.

    The food and service was great. The lamb chops were unbearably salty and we did have to return them. Apparently, that’s not typical. Loved the wings, seafood rice, beef teriyaki skewers were amazing as well as the Mei Mei sushi roll.

    My partner and I are new to Philly and we love exploring new restauants. Fork will definitely be one of our date night go-to’s for special occasions. A little pricey, but the food, drinks, and service are worth every dollar. Natalie was our server, and besides being so fun, she steered us towards some great recommendations and went the extra mile when she could!

    We had a lovely lunch and the service was impeccable. The restaurant was bright and sunny on a very cold day and we especially enjoyed the eggplant parm. The Caesar and seafood salads were also very good. Soup of the day was huge and delicious. Wonderful place to enjoy a leisurely lunch.
