Buddha-Bar London

nice restaurant, very cool design, good food, but quite noisy after 8:30 very nice music perfect for an early dinner out before going on with the night

It is a pity that all the pics that i saw online where from the past Buddha Bar which was a lot cooler. I had really high expectation as Buddha Bar is a world known brand. I will not definitely come back ever again. The food was good but not delicious, the service was good but not great and at the end I felt really bad for my boyfriend that had to pay the check, I felt betrayed by such a famous and prestigious brand as "Buddha Bar".

took my niece and her boyfriend to celebrate her 21st birthday. had an amazing night. good food and great atmosphere. will definitely make a return visit.

Food was great. However the reception was a bit questionable. We wanted to take a cocktail at the bar before dinner but we're not able to do that in a quite empty bar and restaurant area. There was an offer about Happy hour 50 % of for cocktails but it was impossible to utilize this offer. The reason was said to be a booked premesis. We asked if we could get the discount at the dinner table but it was ignored !

Forced downstairs due to private function upstairs. Ordered our food and the starter appeared immediately! It had clearly been cooked previously. Asked for gap for main course and they were very accommodating. Overpriced for what was produced.

Warm welcome and were seated quickly .... Food was good, but portions are very small .... Good service .... A tad expensive .... Good for special occasion rather than frequent dining.

Great ambiance but too loud music for dinners to speak. The music should get a progressive volume, so at 20.30 you dont have to shout to someone seated next to you. Nice food and friendly staff!

The music is too loud for a restaurant. Too noisy. It ruined our dinner. It's a pity because the place is nice and the food is good.We won't recomend it.

Food is amazing but service felt rushed and not focused. As an example one of the waiters gave us menues and took the order for cocktails and then another waiter removed the wine list before us having ordered food

The food and the staff were excellent. The restaurant/bar decor, ambience is excellent!. The main disappointment for us was that we felt/were very rushed for the meal.

Amazing place . Went there for my birthday, great food & setting. Defo coming back soon ! Only downer was the food took a while to come , but it was worth the wait .

The food was superb but the quality of the waiting staff was very poor. We clearly overheard one of the waiting staff being extremely rude to another member of staff about a customer. The staff clearly felt they were superior to the customers and we as customers were in their way - I certainly will not be returning

Wonderful atmosphere, great service, tasty food. The prices are fair. The music is relaxing. I loved the sashimi and I had a great Californian wine.

Food was mediocre, drinks did not come when ordered. Hoisin was forgotten, wrong tea was also served. Seating area was right at the back corner, and we were asked to book early at 6:30 coz it was full but in actual fact there was plenty of space

Service was good - waiters and waitresses were very friendly and attentive - but food was very disappointing - oriental food was very basic and steamed buns were tasteless - sweet variety better but not good or worth the price paid!

Friendly staff, great food and atmosphere! The design of the restaurant is beautiful and it is in a great location! The drinks were delicious! :)

Quick service, good food and friendly staff. A good atmosphere for early dinner but upstairs a lot livelier than down. Prices are not too bad given the location.

Experience was very pleasurable, from minute you step in you are welcomed and looked after delightfully. Im a very big cocktail fan, and they blew me away! The food was amazing, starter through to desert! The atmosphere was great, live DJ set, very sociable. Classy but chilled at the same time! Will definitely be back there very soon!

A great evening, food superb, all six of us enjoyed the variety, pre- dinner drinks and food ordering took a while but the place was packed. Would definitely return.

Great atmosphere even though it was quiet this evening. Food was very well presented, loved the green curry. Lots of vegetarian options. This restaurabt is not cheap, be warned

Arabic Themed Night was great fun with a fun crowd enjoying the live music. Bar men know how to make their cocktails! And I love that Black Cod. Highly recommended!

Really lovely venue, the menu is vast and lovely quality food. Wine is overpriced, but the quality of service was excellent. Nice place to have a meal then a drink at the bar. Would definitely recommend.

Friendly, calm and inviting atmosphere. The food was absolutely wonderful and the cocktails were exactly what they said they were. We will come back again as this venue is great for everyone

I booked this place on-line very easily. It is in a great location in Knightsbridge. Greeted very warmly at the entrance, my coat was taken and we were kindly led to our seats. The maki was one of the best I had not to mention the cocktails!

As always in Buddha bar, we had a wonderful dinner with a romantic and chilled atmosphere. Amazing bar keeper offered great drinks and nice conversation too.

Atmosphere was good, the food was ready very quickly but the service was quite slow and the waiter tended to get mixed up in the orders

Actually my family and I had a great time at Buddha bar London. The food was excellent so was the music and all waiters were kind and effective. The only thing I did not like was the fact that the person responsible for our table suggested that we sat at one of the "private" tables which really are hidden from the rest of the restaurant let alone that they are a level lower than the main area. Really you should not book that kind of tables unless someone asks for that particular area of the restaurant. Luckily we sat at another table since the people eating there left during our dispute with the lady in charge. Overall it was a very pleasant night!!

Great ambiance and service. Food was delicious and well presented. Waiters rushed around near their station where we were seated but we didn't feel rushed. We did come a bit earlier and expect to be seated at the bar until the table time booked, however on arrival we were ushered straight to our dinner table. We didn't mind this as my husband and I were both hungry by this time, though we didn't get a chance to check out the bar, or we may have awarded 6 in this review. We prefer to have a few drinks before the meal rather than afterwards. Overall a great dining experience!

Great food and service. Went for afternoon tea...the only downside is the small portions - we were finished within 40 mins. However what we ate I cannot fault. I would definitely go again and try other dishes from the main menu.

Amazing food. Stunning restaurant. Service was impeccable. No complaints at all. They also do lovely cocktails and the meal was very reasonably priced. Can't wait to go back to Buddha bar

Lovely setting, attentive service, great food, just a bit expensive. We were also given a free champagne cocktail for posting a photo on Facebook, cheers!

The place is great, the vibe is awesome and the staff are super friendly. However the food isn't all that and everything is over priced. I don't mind paying £20 for one drink, but I expect the drink to be out of this world - very disappointed. I guess it's a one time kinda place to try. I'm not going to be in a hurry to go back.

Very poor restaurant waited over 50 minutes for main course and when it came out it was cold. Service slow and poor. Overpriced for food

Excellent venue, staff are great and food is amazing!! Drinks were made to your desire . I would definitely be coming back.my valentine was happy:)

Bad service / staff not smiling / 1 hour between the starter and the main course / Too expensive / fortunately good food / I don't recommend it for a valentine's day dinner / We love Buddha bar Monaco but we will not come back in B.b London

The Music that Night was not very good. We came to hear the normal Buddha Music not arabic Music.. The food and service was very good. 😊

Fantastic service. Amazing food! Very accommodating as we were 30 mins late due to traffic & parking! Highly recommended. 10/10 in all areas. Thank you

Excellent food, especially the black cod. The deserts are to die for! Sitting downstairs was a good choice, I prefer the ambience. I will be back for their Sunday tea!

Food was excellent, decor was beautiful, service was fast and staff were polite. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience, and to top it off an amazing bartender for drinks afterwards!

Lovely food and quick service, stunning place lovely staff and reasonable pricing. I will deffienetly be returning again. Cocktails are slightly over priced, only problem

What a mouth-watering experience. Unbelievable sushi, great atmosphere and friendly and helpful staff. The meal was on the pricey side but no surprises. Celebrating a birthday and the night was perfect.

I really did not enjoy the whole experience at all. The wine was awful (first bottle we chose was warm, not what you expect from a very expensive white wine). The food was average, the music was far too loud & the service was just about OK. Would not recommend this bar to anyone.

That atmosphere was great. The service was good. The food was OK. I expected food better considering the prices. I've had better Pad Thai for a fraction of the cost. The tuna tartare was more like an over priced spoonful, not a meal but delicious.

Thanks for everything the place is lovely. A bit too expensive for the quality of food. Rather disappointing. The decor is lovely but that's just about it.

Staff did not listen to instructions, e.g brought bottled water when explicitly asked for tap water (awkward to complain with guests), forgot which menu we wanted.

Good food and friendly staff but there wasn't enough staff on the night which slowed down our table service. Great ambience and good venue for a slick finish.

The food was absolutely amazing and was served by amazing staff that catered to our every need. The restaurant in itself was stunning and I'll definitely be returning in the near future.

I was really looking forward to this and whilst some of our experience was made pleasant by 2 male waiters I would never go back. On four occasions waitresses removed what they deemed as empty plates without asking. When asked to put the plate back on the table we were met with a cold stare. It was my sons 20th birthday and this was only acknowledged by our male waiter at the start. The waitress with glasses seemed extremely off. As did three others. The rice was over cooked and we did not feel comfortable saying anything due to the general manner of the waiting staff. We did have a lovely male waiter to start with but we didn't see him after the mains were served. I will never go back to this place again as we didn't feel welcome, it was rushed and some waiters need training as they are rude!

Very good as usual ,, food , music, atmosphere,,service, stuff,, drinks ,, every things were nice ,, we enjoy it ,, and it is my faveriat place ,, every time I vist London I have to visit Buddah bar

Very Good i really really enjoy ed the it Was exccellent the waiters as well the only thing was that the music was a bit to laud
