Buddha Lounge Kiel in Kiel

Very tasty, but unfortunately very loud and smaller than expected.

Delicious food, very nice and attentive waiters with the restaurant at full capacity and a really nice atmosphere!

The prices are a bit high, but I'm now a regular because the service is very fast and attentive and the food is fantastic.

Beautifully located on the water, great food, superb service. We'd gladly return.

Food was very tasty. I spent around 20 euros and left the restaurant full. The service was friendly but I still have something to complain about. Despite reservations, we didn't get a seat straight away - we had to wait around 15-20 minutes. I expressed my indignation and was told that it was not enough to call for a reservation on the day of the visit, but rather days earlier. Which doesn't make any sense at all, since they were already able to tell me on the phone whether all the seats were occupied or not.

Very nice restaurant, but the tables could be a little further apart. So privacy is completely missing.

Even without a reservation (there were two of us), you are greeted very nicely and shown to the table. The selection on the menu is very large. The main courses are always available with tofu, chicken, duck and other components. We chose the starter version, which was not only beautifully presented but also very tasty. I particularly enjoyed the summer roll and the baked shrimp. The selection of sushi is great, it's sometimes difficult to choose. The service was attentive and friendly. All in all it was a very pleasant visit.

The food is very good. The staff is friendly and the atmosphere is inviting. The price is rather high, probably because some of the food is prepared like a work of art. Typical modern hip location

It’s okay to try and look at the design, but if you like to eat a lot and it’s also tasty, then it’s not worth it, it’s expensive here, and they said the sushi is fresh, but it tastes the same as what I buy in the store, but there are some that you can’t buy and it was quite tasty, but I’d rather go to another place, it’s nicer there

Very pretty shop, delicious food, great selection. We will definitely come back and can only recommend it!

Great ambience, super friendly staff and incredibly delicious food!!!

Exceptional ambience, delicious food, I had the flying noodles. Very tasty 😋

Very nice atmosphere and very tasty food. We were here spontaneously shortly after 5:00 p.m., but we recommend reserving a table for later visits.

The food is tasty and the service is good

Best Sushi I had until now. The service is very respectful, and the restaurant has an amazing atmosphere. With a car it's not so easy to find (you have to drive to the end of an abandoned parking lot) but you forget all that when you'rr there.

Great atmosphere with a “wow effect” when you walk in. Consistently friendly and courteous staff and effectively prepared, extremely tasty food. If there is anything to complain about at all, it is that the “beer garden table style” makes it harder to talk to each other at the tables for 6 than if there were seats at the front of tables for 4. If you don't like sitting on benches without backrests and would like seats with backrests, you must indicate this when reserving your table. All in all, the latter is complaining at the highest level - for me the restaurant is absolutely recommended! Deserved 5 stars 🌟.

Vi fik bare SÅ lækker mad. Det præsenterede sig så pænt og smagte helt fantastisk. Vi kommer igen når vi er i nærheden af Kiel

I can absolutely recommend going there. It's very cozy there and the food is absolutely delicious. There was more than enough on the plate, very nicely presented and attractive. The waitresses were very attentive and accommodating. I would be happy to come again. Keep it up!

Delicious food with very good service in a great restaurant. I am now a regular guest and look forward to it every time I look at the menu. The sushi selection is very good and is one of my favorites in Kiel.

The food was very tasty and was well prepared. The service was friendly but unfortunately very hectic and nervous as it got busier. In order to get new drinks we had to make ourselves known several times. Maybe there were simply too few staff there in the evening when the store was completely full. Nice atmosphere when you cross the bridge Train station goes. Good location of the restaurant. Unfortunately there are very few places with a view of the water. We really enjoyed the food and would love to come back.

Great atmosphere, very friendly service and the papaya salad and mango salad were great, all the dishes were super tasty and whatever was left was packed up for us, we'll definitely be back

Super delicious food 😋 It's crazy how this is prepared 👍 Definitely try it out 👍 Nice staff and the location is really tiring 😃 We will definitely go there again. But it's best to reserve a table.

Very tasty food, fair portions, friendly service. Unfortunately, despite having a reservation, we were seated at a small table halfway down the aisle right by the door. Because of the low temperatures outside, it was very uncomfortable to sit there.

You feel welcome, and the food is also very tasty

Everything was great, first time there. Food very tasty. Conditions were very friendly and the food came really quickly. Gladly again:)

This is what I want Asian cuisine to be like! 4 dishes and two drinks for under €80!

I was there with customers and we had the large sushi platters, they are served steaming with dry ice. The portions are large and the sushi is very good! The store is stylishly decorated.

We can only recommend the Buddha Lounge. The food, service and ambience are simply great! Even though it was very busy, there wasn't a long wait. When you eat, your eyes eat with you. All the food and drinks are very stylishly prepared and what's more, the portions fill you up. The price-performance ratio is right here. We'll definitely be back.

Very nice restaurant, the food was very tasty, we had Sushi, and Pho noodle soups. We will be back when we go to Kiel again!

Great restaurant with atmosphere and a beautiful view over the harbor. In the evening the night lights look really great. Our food was very tasty. The staff was friendly and on the ball. Everything was perfect here.

A very chic shop in a great location in Kiel, right on the water and currently near the Ferris wheel. It was my second visit here and I wasn't disappointed! Large selection of sushi and other dishes that have once again been presented in a mega way! Always a great experience…

Always worth a visit and something for every guest. Keep it up 👍

Delicious sushi, nice atmosphere right on the pedestrian bridge in the middle of Kiel.

Great sushi and wonderful staff! The staff could speak English so that was great also.

Very tasty food and a very large selection. Great atmosphere, very cozy because of the many plants! Service very nice and attentive. We'd love to come back :)

We were here for the second time. The ambience is very stylish and chic. The food is incredibly good. Be it soup, sushi or rice dishes, everything was fabulous. We come to Kiel to visit regularly and will definitely come here again.

Very nice staff. The food arrives quickly. And it's super delicious. So you can only give it 5 stars. Yallah bye.

Delicious food in a nice atmosphere

The food is very tasty, we ate our fill, the presentation is simply unsurpassed! Unfortunately, they waited for a long time, an hour. But you can understand, there were many people and many orders. But as an apology, they brought us a snack! (Some small rolls with sauce). The atmosphere is good, beautiful. The staff is very kind! The waitress came with a smile, and no one is rude! Just perfect

The food tastes super delicious. The portions are very large and the ambience is also great. You feel very comfortable and the service is also very accommodating. Clear recommendation!

Great restaurant with a great ambience. Nice place to go for a date night. The sushi platter for two people was excellent and the price was also reasonable.

Nice place. We didn't eat, so can't say much about the food

Vegetables overcooked... Good show! Food was OK but nothing special ☺️ Sushi platters overpriced...

The Buddha Lounge in Kiel is absolutely recommended! The food was delicious, the portions were just right, and the atmosphere was very pleasant and inviting. Particularly noteworthy is the friendly and attentive staff, which makes the visit even more pleasant. The location is also well connected, which makes getting there easy. I'd love to come back!

Great culinary experience and extremely tasty too. We like to come again and again. Highly recommended, reservation is highly recommended.

Top food, large selection, great music and good ambience, great staff and a friend got a free cake because of his birthday

Super tasty and nice atmosphere... I can only recommend it!

We had a business lunch for numerous international guests with different diets (vegan, lactose-free, ...). All wishes were taken into account. Very harmonious atmosphere. Pleasant service. Early reservation is certainly helpful. Great! 👍

We were guests with 23 children and adults. The preliminary discussions went really well! The food, the presentation of the food, the ambience (despite the size), the service were super tasty / eye-catching / super nice and fast. We will definitely come back again!

Great service, great food, great ambience

I like the lemongrass and beef bowl. Reminds me of Vietnamese Bun Pho. A compromise on the ambience because it gets a little too loud for me personally, there are no sound-dampening elements.

Lemongrass Bowl - 👍 was very satisfied. Food was very tasty. 10 people all got their food at the same time. The ginger lemonade was also a hit! Service was very friendly and prices were reasonable. A lovely evening…🍜❣️

The food was very good, the waiters remembered a lot and were very friendly, the only thing in the front area was a bit too loud, a partition between the rows of tables would be appropriate.

Very nice atmosphere. Really good food. Had summer rolls and papaya salad on my first visit. And decided: I'll go there again! Very happy with my lemongrass bowl with beef today.

Highly recommended, extremely tasty sushi and very nice service

Super great service, very fast, short waiting times for service, drinks, starters and main courses. Very nice interior design and design. Food also very tasty. Prices were okay. It can't get any more expensive.

Underground service. Waited 1.5 hours for sushi, reason: so many people ordered sushi. Do not offer sushi if you are unable to bring it to the table in a timely manner. And then, when paying, the cheeky question "and what about tips?"... Sorry, anyone who answers so rudely and then literally slaps the food on the table is not entitled to a tip and will never see me in the restaurant again . Conclusion: NOT recommended if you still value service

Many friends and I have had dinner here many times. It's really good, the food is delicious and the water comes out quickly, the customer service is very good. I will definitely come back here often. I already love this place

The Buddha Lounge is a real highlight in Kiel. The reservation went smoothly and the atmosphere is modern and inviting. The dishes were not only beautifully presented, but also absolutely delicious - everything from the flavors to the freshness was perfect. Definitely the best culinary experience we have had in Kiel so far. Unreserved recommendation!

I've been to the Buddha Lounge twice now and I'm disappointed. Visually, the food is beautifully presented. Unfortunately the taste is very bland...!

The food was very tasty, but when we wanted to pay, a lot more things were booked on our table than we had ordered. Things from neighboring tables were booked on ours, then they made me pay even more than what I ordered, which unfortunately I only noticed when I was outside! I had 1 large dish, 1x small makkis, a soup and a drink. I paid for 2x main course, 1x small makkis + the soup and the drink! It was tasty but you paid €11 more than you should have? No thanks !

Super delicious food, Nice staff,

Super delicious food in a nice atmosphere. A table reservation is recommended, and is definitely mandatory on weekends. The sushi is to die for and is spectacularly prepared with dry ice. The bowls are also excellent, as are the flying noodles. The service is discreet, but always there. Unfortunately we couldn't leave a tip when paying with a debit card. In today's world, when cash is becoming increasingly rare, this is a no-go.

It is quite loud when all tables are occupied. Otherwise everything was very good and friendly

Great food, great location and great staff. Would love to come back.

Food was good, but the service was a disaster...After waiting for 1.5 hours, we asked where the food was. Then it came at some point. None of the waiters had the idea to let us know that it would take longer and to ask if we wanted something more to drink. The employees are not only unfriendly, overwhelmed and incompetent, but also brazen. A tip was EXPECTED at the end after the poor performance.

It's super tasty, very nice service, great service

Very, very tasty food, you can also see it, unfortunately the rooms are much too crowded and therefore too loud, making it difficult to have long conversations.

Surprisingly good quality. Definitely worth a second visit.

Wir haben einige Jahre in Asien gelebt und können ganz gut beurteilen, ob ein Restaurant authentisch und die Qualität der Speisen gut ist. Und ich muss sagen, es war hervorragend. Das Essen war 1 A und auch fürs Auge wurde etwas geboten. Einzig am Service haperte etwas, das mag daran liegen, dass das Restaurant bis auf den letzten Platz besetzt war und man einfach nicht hinterher kam. Aber auf nochmalige Getränkebestellung mussten wir unverhältnismäßig lange warten, ebenso auf die Rechnung. Dies tat dem Genuss allerdings keinen Abbruch.

What else can you say? An actually good restaurant with prices that have steadily increased. An espresso costs 3.40, a 0.25 liter beer costs 3.70 and Fritz Cola costs 4.60. I can no longer support or recommend the Buddha Lounge at these prices. Everyone has to know for themselves. The four of us over 100.- for 4 drinks and 4 meals....... it's no fun for us.

Friendly staff and a taste experience and super tasty drinks. Just try it

Very good restaurant with excellent food, good staff and great ambience. The prices are reasonable. Highly recommended.

Habe keine große Erfahrung mit sagen wir asiatischer Küche. Auch wenn hier recht viel Wert auf Show gelegt wurde, war der Service flink und angenehm, die Wartezeit kurz und das Essen prima. Der Fisch war ausgezeichnet, alles schön dargeboten. Viele Familien und Grüppchen, man muss schon etwas lauter sprechen. Blick auf die Förde, leicht vom Hauptbahnhof zu erreichen. Reservierung empfehlenswert. Preise in Ordnung, ziemlich große Karte. Ich komme gern wieder. Danke!

The food was very tasty, the service was friendly, attentive and very quick.

Absolutely delicious, finely decorated location, cool dishes, would be happy again. Fast, accommodating and very friendly

We have always been loyal regular customers of this restaurant and have often visited it with our family. Unfortunately, our last visit left us very disappointed. Although we had reserved a table, the waiter wanted to seat us with our children in an uncomfortable spot at the entrance, even though the table we preferred was free. We finally sat down at the table of our choice, but from that moment on our food was not fully served and the service was rude and unfriendly. This was an extremely unpleasant experience that left us leaving the restaurant in a bad mood. A restaurant should be a place of relaxation and enjoyment, but instead we felt unwelcome. We hope that management keeps this behavioral issue under review as such incidents damage the establishment's reputation. Guests come to have a good time and enjoy a delicious meal - that should always be the focus.

Always very good food and friendly service. It is always recommended

Food as always very tasty. Went there with a stroller. Everything great. Restaurant was very busy and therefore it was actually very loud.

Tasty and varied. Staff would like to be a little more motivated. But otherwise we would like to come back

A gorgeous Vietnam restaurant with Aisa fusion of cuisine. Here guests can find creative and nicely deco of meals. The location is also fine by the water bank. The price is higher than the general other but worth of trying and the service is adequate. Be honest even though I don't feel the taste specially delicious but the fact is the new way of presentation shall impress the western clients.

Delicious. Great view. Courteous staff.

Die Lage ist super, der Service ist top und das Essen ein Traum. Wir kommen definitiv wieder. Wir können es nur weiterempfehlen.

A very nice restaurant, super nice staff, the food beautifully prepared. We had starters, main courses and dessert. Everything tasted great and we will definitely eat there again.

If someone wants to eat quickly and well, then I can recommend Buddha.

The place is very impressive and the food is excellent. It's a really great place to celebrate a wedding anniversary or a birthday, for example.

Mooie interieur, leuke presentatie van de gerechten en een heerlijke smaak. Dat bij elkaar maakt een dineetje echt een succes. Dit allemaal goed betaalbaar en met een vriendelijke bediening.... aanrader.

Great food, nice location. We'd love to come back. One star deducted because a tip of 10 euros was included in the bill. I would like to make this decision myself.

Very good value for money! Food arrived super quickly and was very tasty! Reservations are recommended on Friday evening! Even after asking about a birthday dinner on the phone, the table was beautifully decorated in advance and there was even a tiramisu.

Very tasty and fresh, I and my family liked it. Would love to come back.

Today I spontaneously visited the Buddha Lounge with three friends. Unfortunately, this wasn't a good choice! The waiter was simply more than unfriendly! We had only been sitting at the table for 3 minutes when the waiter came and wanted to take our order and we were obviously still browsing through the menu. My girlfriend ordered the flying noodles, which also tasted very bland. In the middle of eating, the waiter simply reached into her food to retrieve the fork that the noodles were placed on. Very unhygienic, just sticking your hands into your food without asking!!! You had just put your fork aside and the waiter, who had been circling the table the whole time, simply took the plate away from your face, even though the others were still eating. We were also forced to tip, even though we certainly didn't want to give one after this stay. Never again!!

Super delicious food and a very attractive atmosphere

The food is quite good but the waiter in the outside area didn't work at all. I have never experienced such unfriendly service. We probably won't come back.

The food here has gone way down, The last few times I wasn't happy with either the seafood soup or the flying noodles. Prices rose sharply over the year and quality declined. The seafood soup didn't taste good, the ingredients and spices used didn't match. Tomatoes and dill have no place in a Tom Yum-style seafood soup. The flying noodles had a very thin sauce that was barely noticeable, the noodles had no taste of their own and the portion of meat was very small. For the now relatively high prices, I think the food is extremely bad.

excellent sushi. the curry had a peanut sauce too watery, impossible to find any taste. they should make the sauce consistent and tasty. they charged with 10% tip included without warning me. when I offered more tip because I didn't know they have already charged it, they didn't say anything. my wife noticed the amount was too high, and they offered to give the tip money back we enjoy paying tips as long as it's clear as it is in any other place where you simply add the tip you want to pay. never had been through this in Germany before. please make it VERY CLEAR to your customers that you're already charging a tip.

A great meal and friendly service. It was nice to be there often. The place is always full, so it must be good. Come back soon 👍👍👍👍👍

they charged the tip on the bill without telling you. I have never seen this in Germany before. So, you end up paying even more tip if you do not double check your bill. Not nice approach.

Very nicely located restaurant with delicious food. I had the "Flying Singapore". Very, very highly recommended!

The food is beautifully presented and very appealing. The taste is also very good. Given the number of visitors, it's clear that the employees are under stress...but I still think you should remain friendly. Sometimes I had the impression as a guest that you were annoying, which I unfortunately didn't like. The food ambience and the presentation were still very nice... we'll still be back

Great food, large selection and huge portions.
