Mark Mizer grew up eating mixed plates before he knew they had a name. In December 2014, he and his wife, Andrea, opened the first Buddha Bruddah food truck, serving hefty portions of delicious Hawaiian favorites like Kalua Pork and Huli Huli Chicken alongside Thai classics including Red Chicken Curry and Phad Thai Noodles. They opened their brick-and-mortar restaurant in Beacon Hill in April 2018, followed by a second truck a year later. In 2021, they opened a second location in Kenmore, then Kirkland, and in 2024 welcomed their Burien location.

Fun fact: Mark is half-Thai and learned to cook under the tutelage of his uncle Hwang. Visit their other locations in Kenmore, Burien, and Beacon Hill, and keep them in mind for your catering needs!
