Buddha Thai Bistro

There were no vegetables in the pad Thai. A small amount of noodles for the price you’re paying. We left hungry. 

Amazing thai food! Very vegetarian-friendly and the pad thai I had was great, and the roti starter was perfectly flaky and crunchy.

It was also quite interesting to see pineapple fried rice presented in a pineapple bowl lol. Honestly quite cool even if the pineapple didnt soak in completely. I want to come back and try the vegan menu here, it seems interesting

Buddha’s Belly is basically all vibe, no flavor. I had the Pad See Ew with fresh summer rolls, and my husband went with the Drunken Noodles though honestly, they should just rebrand it as “Thai Spaghetti” and call it a day. The food wasn’t bad enough to send back, but it was bland enough to forget halfway through chewing. Even the water had me wondering if they filled it straight from the tap and skipped the Brita. Our server was nice, but not the type to win Employee of the Month anytime soon. The atmosphere? Gorgeous. Instagram will love it. But if you’re here for an actual meal, prepare to be underwhelmed it’s the décor, not the dishes, that leaves the strongest impression.

My wife and I were really excited to try Buddha's Belly after hearing some good things, but we were left pretty underwhelmed. The service was quick and the restaurant itself was clean, which was nice. However, the food was just really, really bland. We ordered a few different dishes to get a good sense of the menu, and each one lacked the vibrant, bold flavors you expect from Thai cuisine.
It tasted more like something you'd get from a generic food service company rather than a kitchen that takes pride in its cooking. It's a shame, because it has a lot of potential. I'm hoping it was just an off night for the kitchen.

Had the saffron curry (made it vegan) & it was lightly sweet & savory... So delicious! The place is clean, attentive staff & the vibe is very inviting. I'd recommend to a friend.

0 stars if I could. Took my mother here for mother’s day. Every. single. table. got flowers for their mother and a free dessert, besides us, even after specifically asking. They continued to ignore us the rest of the night and shuffled us between terrible servers. My mom cried on the way home btw. Thanks for ruining my mom’s mother’s day for shit food at fine dining prices! (:

My wife and I chose them tonight as it was a place we haven’t been yet, as locals of the beach it is sometimes hard to find food that you haven’t had enough of yet!

It was our first visit and I will tell you it was amazing, I had the ruby red curry with squid and my wife had the pepper garlic shrimp, both dishes were amazing, the curry was creamy and smooth and the garlic pepper shrimp were tender and sweet.

We had the crab Rangoon’s as an appetizer and those were also quite good. We will definitely be eating here again!

We love Buddah Bistro! We have been coming here for so many years celebrating birthdays and anniversary’s. We always order the crab rangoons, Drunken noodles, and the Tom Yum soup is a must order to call in for pick up when feeling ill.

Very delicious food but horrible attitude server. The icing on the cake they charged 18% gratuity after the bad service.

I could not comprehend how the Tofu Satay could be soo divinely delicious. It’s perfectly prepared and the peanut sauce is made with coconut milk. I would come back just for one skewer. I also had the Vegan Spring Roles. They were ok. The staff was super helpful, obviously had knowledge and experience accommodating vegans. They also participate in the Vegan Chef Challenge 🙂

One of the best restaurants in Jax beach and some of the best Thai food I’ve ever had. Tons of vegetarian options. Can’t recommend them enough.

Me and my boyfriend went here and it was great! The food. The service! Yok served us and she was awesome!

Really good thai food and cocktails for good prices! Service is friendly and great with recommendations.
