Great fun, friendly staff and great food. The menu changes frequently. It's noisy though, so not a place to go if you want an intimate chat.
My husband tells me I am a very fussy eater, however I have never had such delicious tapas. Beautifully fresh ingredients and lots of attention to detail and layering of tastes. Just gorgeous. I'm not fussy I have just been waiting for a place like this. We ate loads plus beer and it came to only £35. Loved it. Well done Senor Buddha
Amazing food, friendly staff and a great atmosphere - we had a lovely evening and will definitely be going back and recommending to our friends.
Fantastic atmosphere, wonderful food, great value for money. One of my favourite restaurants in Brighton - there is always a warm welcome, and all the staff are super friend Y.
Amazing food with a great varied menu. A very friendly welcome and atmosphere! One of the best dining experiences I have had in Brighton. I will definitely be going back.
Great food and atmosphere. Tuesday 2 4 1 deals makes it even more satisfying!!! I heartily recommend this restaurant to those wanting a lively and gastronomical enriched night out.
Amazing as always - food. Atmosphere. Staff. Unbeatable. Been 5+ times. The ribs are the best we have ever had. Squid and mango salad amazing. In fact there hasn’t been anything that isn’t! And always surprised at how reasonable the bill is!
Amazing food as always. Best place to eat in Brighton. Really interesting menu expertly prepared. Brought my niece last night. She loved it. Great wines too.
It was a joy to eat there for both the food and the wonderful hospitable staff. We had a very wonderful time there, and left feeling that we had visited somewhere special. The lively atmosphere still managed to give some personal space.
Fantastic food and staff were amazing & very welcoming. The manager is great fun and a nice lively atmosphere with the best tasting tapas & excellent chef.
Despite it being very busy (full house), the service was on point and staff were great/friendly. The food was excellent and filling. my girlfriend and I are rather looking forward to going back again in the future. :-)
Senor Buddha is fantastic little restaurant serving delicious unusual food in a fun atmosphere. We always have a lovely time- Dean and his team are fab.
Fantastic food, atmosphere and service! Will definetly visit again.. tapas were a good variety, well made and tasty! Enjoyed 2 bottles of sparkling wine tll
the food was great! Deano the Manager was brilliant! A great little place in Preston Circus. I will be recommending to my friends nd family!
intimate space with very lively vibe and -interesting tapas and raciones menu with choices for all persuasions and some great combinations and flavourings. Wine list too is inspiring as in, it steps outside the norm. Always nice to see the kitchen at work in front of you so you feel part of the whole experience. There is some originality to this place and although there was a new member of staff on the floor the night that we went who seemed a little lost and unsure of what things were etc, its obvious that this place is slickly run with good, confident, knowledgeable and entertaining service. I would definitely go again and recommend that others try it. Nice to have this as a local at Preston Circus.
It was Great food with a good choice and we had great attentive service. It has hotbed expensive now though. The atmosphere was fun that made it a great evening.
Great fun though not the place for a quiet night out. Food excellent. It was 2 for 1 tapas last night so was extremely good value, everything freshly cooked and excellent service despite it being completely crowded.
Not quite as stunning as it was when we last visited a year ago. The food is drifting towards the pretentious and there is way too much salt used in almost everything. It's a more interesting restaurant than most and definitely worth a visit but they could do with going back to basics.
It's always a pleasure to eat at Señor Buddha! On this visit, soft rabbit (flavoured with both coriander seed and leaf) with rich chorizo was sensational. The thoughtful accompaniments, such as avocado-mellowed wasabi and coconut-infused pea purée, alongside impeccably prepared meat, fish, vegetables or cheese, offer exciting and often surprising flavour combinations. Friendly and efficient service, good wines and delicious food that's ambitious without being pretentious make this a firm favourite.
The staff were lovely, the food was great, tasty and varied and the wine was really good for the money. The beer seems a bit over priced.
Love it here. Food is fantastic and you always get a warm welcome in a great atmosphere. The only reason you don't want to recommend it it because you want to keep it to yourself - but go - it's worth it.
Interesting selection of tapas, Good friendly service. Not the most comfortable environment particularly if you 're seated on the high stools. Average value for money.
We loved everything about this restaurant. We sat at the bar and the fantastic chef was our host, cooking us incredible food and also entertaining us. Highly recommended.
Fantastic service, food was good but it was lacking in a few elements In a few dishes. We will be back though in the near future
Great place. Excellent food. Exceptional staff. Very friendly staff. New menu items. For a limited menu an excellent mix of meat, seafood and veggie. A must visit !
Dean was great when clearly under pressure and did his best to accommodate us at short notice. Food terrific! Would definitely return when next in Brighton... J
The food was ok. The service was good. But, it was so noisey we had to shout to each other to be heard. I'm sure on a less busy night it would be a great evening. Although as I said, the food was ok.
After numerous recommendations we eventually made it to Senor Buddha ourselves and has a great evening. Service and food were fantastic and the chef happily chatted about the different dishes as he cooked. We'll certainly be back ! A & H
Great food, friendly service but for me not the most comfortable of places. Very noisy environment, which was due to loud music, lots of people being packed into a small room but also a lot of banging and crushing in the kitchen
The staff were really lovely and the food was wonderful, the calamari and radish salad were highlights. We both had a great time. Thank you very much! Hope to see you soon.
Super restaurant. Amazing staff. My Mum and auntie said it was exceptional. We had such fun and were so well looked after. Thanks guys xxx
Wow the food was amazing! Lovely flavour combinations made with interesting ingredients. All in all a great tapas restaurant with friendly staff great atmosphere. I would highly recommend trying this place.
Small but charming place - food was amazing and the menu was a great mix of dishes that cater for every taste without being overwhelming. In addition to all this the service was above and beyond! Great experience and looking forward to visiting again.
Small and unfussy restaurant. Fab food the tapas dishes were varied and well executed with portion size good for sharing and friendly service. Would recommend for a chilled evening out with friends.
Amazing food and amazing service. Great vibe- will definitely be revisiting! Wine was amazing and croquettes were beautiful. Great to have chef in front of us to talk through food. Thankyou!
Fabulous, inventive food, lovingly prepared, plus a wonderfully intimate atmosphere and friendly service. All in all, a great experience. We can't wait to go back.
Fantastic night - great food, and Dean is an amazing host. The squid, pork croquetas and the ribs are just sublime. Can't wait for next visit!
What a great find. The food was excellent, the service was excellent, the atmosphere was excellent too, I would throughly recommend it, definitely worth the walk!
Such a great find. Lovely cosy restaurant - probably 20 - 30 covers. Staff great and were so attentive everyone took the time to explain everything. Food was so VERY tasty (hubby thought a tad too salty) but loved the variation. I think the chef's name was John he was absolutely brilliant ' he is now my new 'Master Chef' . He took the time to explain and let me try different things. I want to do a cookery day course with him please. take note. !!! I am fussy and like value for my hard earned money. Senor Buddha met all my expectations. Food and staff made the evening - will return soon. Yes I would certainly recommend.
Fantastic little restaurant. Really good food and very friendly and attentive staff. We really enjoyed sitting at the bar and watching the chefs at work. Will definitely be going back.
The menu was innovative, the service was great and good advice given as to how many dishes to order, the food was delicious and the atmosphere was lively. I will be returning!
Fantastic food. Wonderful friendly staff. Small venue, so would advise you book. The team were more than happy to bring you things to try and it was lovely being able to see and interact with the chef.
Beautiful food in a intimate and vibrant setting. Great view of the chefs doing what they do best, and all meals came straight out, piping hot. Best ribs I have ever tasted, and the pork croquettes with rhubarb puree were divine. Staff were all very helpful and informative. 10/10 experience.
A terrific restaurant. Friendly, welcoming staff, delicious food and not too pricey. Fun, buzzy atmosphere. An interesting array of tapas - loved all the dishes.
Fantastic teeny tiny restaurant with a great vibe. The pork cheeks were incredible, great wine and beer selection and a cracking front of house. A very well kept secret!
Delicious food, very quaffable cava, great service and an altogether lovely vibe. This is my favourite restaurant in Brighton - and possibly anywhere - at the moment.
The food was exquisite and the staff were absolutely lovely. I have told everyone i know to go and shall definitely be returning there myself.
Another fab evening at Senor Bhudda. Lots of new dishes on the menu and food was superb as ever. Great service too. Will be paying another visit very soon :-)
We had a great time, lively and fun. excellent ambiance second to none, food interesting and very well cooked, price good for Brighton - highly recommended.
Most of the dishes were good however small portions, so too pricie for what you get. £45 for 2 people and still so hungry... We will not come back
