Best Asian Restaurants in Glenolden

Please check out this restaurant! Not only was the atmosphere lovely, the service outstanding, but the food ranks up there with some of the best my husband and I have had in quite awhile and we dine out often- plus I love to cook- we’re both foodies. We’d recommend- Tuna sundae for an appetizer (we had the spicy version), cucumber salad, XO Fried rice (has big Lucious chunks of lobster in with other tasty veggies), their Szechuan Shrimp (so good- not too spicy and shrimp was cooked to perfection). Our server recommended for dessert a type of chocolate mouse (I forget the exact name) but it was heavenly. We were greeted upon entering in a friendly manner and immediately seated. This is a BYOB restaurant (another plus for us) and upon being seating our server brought a chilled bucket for our wine and offered to pour our first glass. We were pleasantly surprised at the price point- very reasonable for all you get- atmosphere, food, service. All in all, a beautiful dining experience. Well done! We’ll certainly be back.

Growing up eating Cambodian food, this place really hits all the flavors I grew up loving, with a modern twist. Every dish was divine, the service was great. Wonderful experience from start to finish.

This restaurant remains an icon and treasure among Philadelphia’s dining scene. It is structurally a beautiful place with waterfall walls and the outsized Buddha centerpiece. Every dish I have ever had over the many years is consistently delicious and the service is top notch. We even take out for birthdays and every Valentine’s Day and the food is just the best! I would eat at Buddakan every day if I could. Congratulations to the entire team for the exceptional food, decor and service.

Service was a little slow but we were in no rush and the staff was so courteous and friendly. Food was delicious.

Second visit and the food remained excellent. Great place for shared plates. Good options for vegetarian dishes.
