About this restaurant

  • Hot spot
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.

    What a horrible disappointment. The Buddha Bar looks and feels tired and passé. So dark and soulless. More importantly the food is ok. Nothing more. Not original of fun or special. But expensive! The service is the worst part of the “experience”. Clearing plates constantly and without asking if we’re finished (we weren’t as there was still food on the plates), not being attentive and failing to bring simple things like ice despite us asking numerous times. All in all I was so disappointed with the restaurant and especially the service. Avoid

    Mauvaise expérience, rien à voir avec les autres buddha bar. La nourriture est fade et grasse et n’a pas les goûts thaï et la finesse des plats habituels du buddha bar. Nous étions à une table avec un spot dans la tête. Le service es très particulier, on sent que les serveuses veulent très rapidement partir et t’enlève les assiettes à la seconde où tu finis ton plat même si nous n’avions pas finit de manger. On commence à faire le ménage à côté de toi alors que tu es encore à table, on se sent pas accueilli du tout. C’était l’anniversaire de ma mère, on a été super déçues, et aucun geste même pas une bougie de la part du restaurant qui était au courant.
