The atmosphere And the food were excellent. I highly recommend it if you love Japanese food. The only downside is there are no waiters taking orders which loses that human contact. Everything is done through the phone, and they bring it out to you, which is ok, but I think human connection is better.
However, the vibe is excellent, and the food was terrific too would be going again 100% and taking everyone with me. Also, the service was on point, quick and easy !!!
Thanks you for the birthday vibe

The service here was friendly. We really enjoyed the entree and sashimi sharing options. The fusion flavours were also great. The ambience and setting is also quite chill and convenient location right next to fed square. Dessert spring rolls were a little confusing though

Chocolate Buddha is a great venue for family with little children. They do amazing children dishes, and delicious Japanese inspired dishes. We had King Fish, Grilled Chicken Don, Chicken Bento, deep fried lotus (chips), and Shake Salmon.
Service was friendly, loves kids and very fast service (if you’re in a hurry). There is also a sushi train if you are after classic sushi dishes.
The environment is tranquil and calm, comfortable sitting and spacious.
Orders are all via apps, easy and no contact.
Mask on indoor, take off when eating.
Overall experience- Excellent

Always one of my favourite places to eat in Melbourne. Great healthy food, great atmosphere, easy to get to and always something happening in Federation Square. We sat outside on a balmy autumn night before heading off to Moulin Rouge which was just around the corner.

Absolutely delish! We were walk ins late on a Saturday and we managed to grab two spots at the bar - the staff were so incredibly lovely. Food was even better - the Wagyu was absolutely delightful. I've been coming here for years and I think it has only gotten better over time. Can't recommend enough for a fantastic Japanese meal.

Great spot! Great service! Extraordinary flavoursome food, which is presented well. All in all a great experience as long as you don't require a seat with a back on it. Highly recommended for the Melbournite and tourist alike!

Chocolate Buddha continually amazes me. The staff, the food, the location & vibe all nailed.
This will always be my favourite place to go for dinner. Every single item on the menu will blow you away and I assure you the time spent here will be cherished.
You won’t leave here without a full belly either!!

The restaurant is located right at the centre of Federation Square and so easily accessible by public transport
The food was incredible! Most delicious Japanese food and wonderful
Staff. My recommendation would be to book in advance and get a seat inside. Apparently they have a sushi train during the weekends and I just can’t wait to try it!!
