Why they're an Icon
Executive chef: Nery Hernandez
From the OpenTable editors: Buddakan is Philadelphia royalty. Legendary restaurateur Stephen Starr opened the pan-Asian hotspot in 1998, and nearly three decades later it's just as packed as ever. A giant golden buddha statue in the center of the massive dining room will frame a meal that might include edamame dumplings, lobster fried rice, and shrimp bao buns. Toast your companions with a pick from the excellent sake selection.
