Buddha Bar

Editorial Review

Jumbo version of the Buddha is gone, as is the name, thanks to catfight with the Parisian original. Tight door ensures tarted-up crowd is dressed to the nines. You'll be wanting to wear something that looks good with either red or black. Ear drum-crushing beats to distract from mediocrity of the food. Asian-slanted, miso-glazed Chilean sea bass, Japanese "washu" rib-eye steak, bbq duck spring rolls. It's the Meatpacking, ya'll, just focus on the scene.
