Sycuan introduces Pink Buddha restaurant
Pan-Asian eatery opens alongside new cocktail lounge.
Sycuan Casino Resort on Friday said it has opened a brand-new restaurant and cocktail lounge: the Pink Buddha and Karma Lounge.
The San Diego-area tribal facility said Pink Buddha is a new, casual dining restaurant that will offer a fresh take on Pan-Asian cuisine. It will feature the eclectic influences of China, Thailand, Japan, Vietnam, the Philippines and Hawaii.
Officials said the extensive, chef-crafted menu boasts a mix of items, including noodles, fried rice, pho, dim sum, Bahn Mi sandwiches, stir fry dishes and more.
Upon entering the restaurant, guests are greeted with an 8-foot tall, original Pink Buddha statue. Inside, they will find vibrant artwork, playful sculptures, a massive cherry blossom tree and pink accents throughout the venue to enhance the experience.
Karma Lounge at Pink Buddha is described as a cozy cocktail hideaway providing guests with a place to enjoy specialty cocktails and small bites in a beautifully crafted atmosphere. The intimate lounge features plush seating areas, ambient lighting, bold neon pink signage and a floor-to-ceiling cherry blossom tree.
The lounge’s cocktail menu serves up a variety of Asian-inspired drinks mixed with everything from Japanese whiskey, Infanta Lambanog to Tia Maria Matcha. The small bites menu offers both savory and sweet options.
“Our Pink Buddha character was created as a lighthearted and happy Buddha, representing prosperity and good fortune,” DeVere Jones, executive director of food and beverage at Sycuan Casino Resort, said in a statement. “Our talented chefs and skilled mixologists have sourced a variety of unique and international ingredients to bring to life a menu that you can really only find here at Karma Lounge. Both Pink Buddha and Karma Lounge bring an entirely new experience to Sycuan that I think our guests are really going to enjoy.”
Pink Buddha and Karma Lounge are open Thursday through Monday from 11 am to 2 am, with bar service available daily from 10 am to 1:15 am.
