We had a wonderful meal here! We came as a party of 4 for dinner on a Tuesday, and we walked right in and got a table right away. The other people in my party were very impressed with the extensive bourbon /whiskey selection, and had fun choosing some new ones to try.

Terrible experience for a first timer in Lexington. I saw great reviews on this restaurant but was incredibly disappointed… table was dirty and sticky, the table next to us sat dirty for most of our dining experience, the sake had a bug floating in it, and the lady who came to take our order walked off when we were asking questions. For a Thursday night, this place seemed severely overwhelmed and lazy with staffing. The food took over 45 mins to get to the table. The other server rushed out with food and aggressively threw plates down. Food was average and not worth the money. Suggest going somewhere else for dinner.

We love coming to Buddha Lounge! It’s usually pretty busy but that’s okay.. food and drinks are always enjoyed. Staff is friendly and wait time for food isn’t bad. There’s a bar area that we sometimes sit at if possible since it’s off to the side and that’s nice.

The place itself is great! It had a great atmosphere and according to my wife, a new york vibe!. Clean and very well decorated. Small but simple!

This place was great! The service was fast and friendly. The food came out quick and was delicious. Seriously even the salad was sooo good. I got a bento box and it was the perfect portions. I will absolutely eat here again when I next visit Lexington. Should have taken the pictures before we dug in but I forgot haha even my 5 year old was so happy eating everything. Very great taste

Solid, but not extensive menu. The sushi I had, Kim Bap Roll, held a Korean flair in its flavors and level of spice. Well made and delicious. Good service – attentive without being invasive. Good pricing on food items and drinks. The place has a very minimalist, Asian vibe to the interior – though not specifically Japanese. Wine list was “meh” but that is to be expected in the area (no one seems to have figured out that sparkling and white wines pair very nicely with many types of sushi and sashimi). The sake list was solid, varied and covered all the bases of styles and price points quite well. Would definitely eat here again.

Stopped by on a trip through Lexington and genuinely enjoyed my visit. The food was delicious: some of the better eel I’ve had in a while, and the tonkatsu was thin but juicy, served with crisp veg and delicious rice. Service was prompt, friendly, and attentive. Will definitely stop in again.

I was pleasantly surprised at how good the food was there!!! The restaurant was very busy however our server was so helpful and amazing she got everything done and got us seated and fed quickly! I was so full and happy after leaving!! We had the green curry dish, the Hawaiian wrap and the spicy California roll everything was so good. I also got the miso soup which was the best miso soup I have ever had! Thank you so much

First time my family & I ate here. 5 stars hands down. I always look at reviews before going to any new place and when I saw the reviews from here I decided we’d go there for lunch. Service was outstanding, food was fresh and delicious, place was cozy, clean and inviting. I will go back if I’m in that area again. Great job Buddha Lounge
