Went for my 30th birthday last night. Seriously have never had so much fun. I've always wanted to check this place out and am very happy we did. Great staff, awesome crowd.

Used to go all the time. It's my favorite place. I miss it :(

Staff is bad ass. I go for my birthday and karaoke. Always a blast. Hate Whyte Ave and avoid always if possible but love the Buddha! !

Orlando doesn't a great job on Latin Night. Great Energy, great music and really friendly crowd.

Nice bar and friendly people all over the bar like the fact that there is 2 floors in the bar and that is cover free !

I was there last night and it was the most fantastic time!! Hot guys and ladies, dancing, and amazing music and service!! Ill be back for sure.

I don't get to go often, but this is hands down my favourite place to go dance. Great music, great crowd, awesome staff! In my opinion Shadow is the best most entertaining bartender in Edmonton!

Friendly staff, reasonably priced drinks, good music and karaoke. Funky Buddah's got it all. Come down and check out THE hsppenin' place on Whyte Ave.

Chelsea is the most fantastic server I've ever had. I have way too much fun when she's around. Shadow is one of the greatest bartenders I've ever seen, he's friendly and super quick to make drinks.

The newer Sunday night karaoke host, Natasha, is fair to put you up, extremely friendly and an absolutely incredible singer.



I highly recommend coming here if you're looking for a great deal and a better time.

Awesome winter getaway on Whyte ave. Cheapest drinks in Edmonton, fun bartenders awesome Latin Wednesday with free salsa lessons. The best its that there is no cover charge everrrr on the weekends!

Awesome place to visit! Staff are phenomenal and friendly, DJ Mad Buddha is excellent.

Fine times with friends. Wouldn't mind going back again.

So I went for the first time on Friday (November 24).

Meanwhile the environment was nice, and music was good. The security guards weren’t the best. I reported a guy for touching my boobs several times, and all he got was a talking to & was still in the bar.

Used to go all the time, but every time I go, it seems to be getting worse. Walked upstairs and asked the bartender for a vodka-redbull. $8.00--no issues there. 20 minutes later asked for another. This time it came to $6.75. That's odd. A short while thereafter, I went to order another, however the bartender was too busy texting someone to notice the patrons waiting patiently at the bar to order drinks. Once he had finally finished making plans for later that night, when it was my turn to order, I ordered a third vodka-redbull. Again $6.75, including his short-pour. Not impressed.



Hope this place turns around, because it was a great nightspot!

Horribly grumpy DJ. He ruined my experience. The drinks were good.

Worst service rude staff can't say much more than that

To the DJ that was a jerk to me. I get it we all have bad days. I went up twice to ask for a song. First time you said let me guess you want Ja Rule actually no I don’t i said. I ask for a song that I never got which is totally cool. However you were an asshole, an complete jerk. So I thought hey we all have shit days. Second time I tried I even tried to apologize for what I don’t even know. I touch your arm said sorry and you said don’t fucking touch me. I said sorry and walked away however I notice you were quite friendly to others. I felt like shit I even made a complaint because I Was upset. You were a shit person to me. Did you know that I volunteered all day at the parade and this was my time to relax after working two jobs. Do you know that I worked two jobs just to make money to go out that night? I have to make enough in tips tonight to hopefully pay for my groceries because I decided for once to go and dance. And when I decided to dance I had a DJ who was a complete asshole. So yeah we all have bad days I get it but remember you work in a spot that is suppose to bring fun and that’s suppose to help us dance and forget about our daily shit. You were an asshole last night.

This place sucks horrible staff. They should learn how to treat people. Rude management. Food is bad. Don't go there you'll regret it. I'll give the -1%

This place is harendous fifth rate tunes Punch you out if they dont like your look! Worst night out in a long time.
