Chocolate Buddha Review

Great place for a chill out taking in the vibe of Federation Square. If you love sweet things, this is the place for you.

We stopped in a for drink a week ago and we're so impressed with the staff, we booked a table for the Grand Final to bring our interstate guests.
The host Lucas was terrific and the service was suburb. The food was fantastic and tasty. My ramen was as good as the best I'd previously had in Tokyo. The staff are very knowledgeable and exceptionally professional.
The service and friendliness of bar attendants Kayla and TJ are worth a visit alone!
We'll return numerous times in the future!

Food was good! Was wondering how the steamed noodle dumplings, which were supposedly dumpling fillings wrapped in vermicelli, were going to work out. They did not disappoint.

Delicious food, friendly & speedy service, but most impressed by the environmentally aware takeout packaging: all paper/cardboard with compostable lids, just some thin plastic wrap to keep things really tight. No styrofoam. Thanks for being a responsible business!!!

Great healthy Japanese cuisine with friendly happy staff. Good location in the heart of Melbourne!

beautiful food, price is reasonable for the high quality! servers were lovely and helpful

Always get a beautiful meal and attentive, friendly service with absolutely nothing being too hard for the wait staff. All the staff are wonderful, individual, and very courteous in a relaxed way. The food is consistently great and simply, artistically, plated. Vegetarians, vegans, and allergy sensitive diets are catered for without any fuss at all. Recommended highly for a special meal or pre-show dinner, which won't break the bank.

Food and service were good (service was perhaps a little too over the top but that is ok). I enjoyed the meals I had and it is a fantastic location.

Absolutely fantastic staff with a world class manager! Food is fresh and full of flavor. Loved the experience!

Beautiful Japanese fare. Friendly and inviting environment.

Our reservation luckily was just before sunset so we had an amazing view. Not to mention being able to watch live tennis on one side and natural beauty on the other with great food & service really makes it a worthwhile visit.

Food and crews are nice, though food is a bit expensive.

Had an absolutely brilliant dining experience here last Sunday night. All staff were welcoming, friendly and the manager was particularly helpful & hospitable. Overall atmosphere was gorgeous as well. Will definitely be back in the future!

Fabulous food and the staff were friendly and the most helpful that I have come across for a long time. Great work.

Extremely nice place! They hold a very high standard of service and quality of food. Location is spot on! Couldn't pick a nicer place in Melbourne CBD to enjoy some authentic sashimi and noodles. Their tempura vegetables are amazing as well, and the teas they have a so warming! I love their menu, I love this place! Will definitely be back!!!!!

The food was amazing but that s not why I keep going back. The service is what always brings me back. They went above and beyond to cater to my friend s very special dietary requirements. They went even further when we asked to pay and they allowed us to split the bill and even split the alcohol and food. Would highly recommend this place.

Great variety of gluten free items available.
Attentive service
