Buddakan is one of those expensive places where you have to try, at least once. It has a beautiful decor and beautiful lighting. Not to mention beautiful people. It's a gorgeous restaurant, but with a hefty price. Located in the Meatpacking district, I think this restaurant has become a bit of a cliche. After being shown on that movie, tourists and first-timers love to come here and just order appetizers, which annoys me because the food here is actually really really good.
Food? I love the Sechuan Crusted Rib Eye. Pecking Duck is amazing. Lobster is great. And the Sea Bass is very yummy.
