The Buddha-Bar Restaurant New York City, is ideally located within the industrial-turned-lifestyle heart of New York’s TriBeCa neighborhood. The restaurant, bar, and lounge sit within a landmarked historic building in a vaulted two-story space with a meticulous, opulent modern design perfectly aligned with the rustic beams and bricks of the original structure. Summer 2021 brings the return of a $1 million, custom, 16-foot, glass-hewn Buddha sculpture, music, and energy from the resident DJ, globally-inspired Asian Fusion cuisine, and the famed vibe of Buddha-Bar to New York City.

Any party accompanied by children under the age of 10 must be seated in our Lounge Dining Area.

Your table will be reserved for 1 hour and 30 minutes for parties of up to 2; 2 hours for parties of up to 4; 2 hours and 30 minutes for parties of up to 6; 3 hours for parties of 7+

Please call for our dress code.
We do not allow outside food (cake, cupcakes). We apologize for the inconvenience.

    Very nice-looking place, but the food was disappointing: either too small portions, for the lamb chops for example, or disappointing taste, for the king crab udons (I had to look for the crab and the dish was very spicy). The wine was good but really expensive. On the whole, the dinner was too costly for what we got, but it's a trendy place obviously.

    Had reservations, and got seated 45 mins later , couldn’t walk out because they make you pay a deposit that is non refundable, now I see why , very unorganized, people were coming in after me and were getting seated. Walking in there was no one at the front to even check in anyone . Worst experience ever

    It was cold, overcrowded, and overpriced—hardly worth the Valentine’s Day prix fixe they were trying to sell.

    Disappointing Valentine’s Experience The Valentine’s pre-fixe menu was a letdown—both the service and the food did not justify the $150 per person price tag. To make matters worse, larger groups were able to order off-menu items, creating an unfair and frustrating experience. Definitely not worth the cost.

    Beautiful place. Unfortunately they were very understaffed and could not provide good service. We waited for hours for our main course. Nice staff.

    The food was horrible! No flavor, no zest. Soggy and mushy. Overpriced and overhyped. The ambiance was amazing. The service was great. A glass of Cabernet was $28, and there were no other choices. Go for the atmosphere, not the food!
