Fat Buddha Asian Bar & Kitchen in Sunderland

We went for a lunch here and it was delicious. 2 courses for £14.95 was a bargain. Lovely fresh food and friendly service. Would definitely come here again.

Visited today, we had a good time. We were very pleased that we were given a window seat, as we'd requested on our online booking. The atmosphere was nice, the music uplifting but relaxing too, and was wonderful having our meal with a view of Seaburn beach! We had strawberry daquiris, they were delicious! Worth going there just for drinks alone! I ordered the Pork 'Kakuni' (belly pork) which was absolutely divine! It literally melts in your mouth just like it says in the description, and the Asian Pak choi complimented the food nicely, but didn't notice any sweet potatoes on the dish which were supposed to be included. I didn't mind as the pork belly was more than enough on its own anyway. My partner had a 2 course meal for £15; the starter (pan fried dumplings) was very tasty, but the main (chilli honey crispy chicken with Yaki Ramen) wasn't great. The chicken was dry, not crispy at all, and it tasted like a chicken nuggets, and the Yaki Ramen was dry too. Overall, would recommend, but the food is overpriced. Worth the views though.

The place is really beautiful. The waiters are kind. The food was tasty. Loved everything. Would visit again

Food very good, but some staff aren't very knowledgeable concerning the very many dishes available and which are the best sides for each main. Very colourful Asian decor.

Super location. Great view. Quick service. Attentive staff. Nice food. Vegetarian options aren't considered. Cocktails are pricey and (with only the Berlini to go on) not mixed too well. A service charge of £3.90 is automatic on the bill.

Fantastic tasting food just let down by the portions and pricetag. This honey chilli chicken was £14 on its own which was a tad too high for what it was.

Service with no smile! Literally welcome people. Food was poor. No atmosphere at all. Won't be going back. SERVICE CHARGE ON BILL WITH OUT EVEN KNOWING AND ASKING! I experience alot of outside dining and this was one of my worst 😡

Went in the bar for coffee and drinks in the afternoon. They serve food till 9pm. Stunning views of the sea. The staff are friendly and helpful. If in the area call in.

The place is elegant, and the food is of great quality.The sea view adds to a great experience.The parking places are street side , a bit limited.The prices are towards the expensive side but not much.The desert menu is a bit limited.

The most pricey Asian restaurant in the UK. Michelin price for regular tastes with small portion.We spend 50 pounds (2 people, food only) but still hungry.I suggest you go to Newcastle for better options.
