    Good place to celebrate occasions! Lunch and dinner with family, friends and colleagues. Lechon kawali is a winner.

    It’s Pork and seafood buffet! If you wish to have pork dishes, here is the best place to be. They have lechon belly, kawali, crispy pata, and so on, few seafood options are available too. There is different buffet days, Mondays is seafood buffet, week ends is combination. For maximum 110 AED. Drinks not included, water is ofcoarse best option. No coffee available. Always busy and noisy place, very Filipino atmosphere which is live and vibrant.

    Amazing Filipino restaurant in Dubai! Probably one of the best ones. For lunch they have a buffet for 79 AED, and all the food is wow. The meat dishes are wow, Lechon Kawali is just wow! The lechon paksiw, pork kare-kare. Another great mix is the garlic fried rice with Beef tapa! I also recommend the local beer San Mig. The sushi is quite good, the Siomai dumplings are also wow! They even have pizza! deserts are great (my fav the local Buko pandan). Photos with everything attached. The host speaks perfect English and they were very friendly and helpful. I also really need to mention that the toilets are amazingly clean, and the place is children friendly. I highly recommend you to visit this place if you’re in the Dubai area! A+

    Somehow there are a lot of Filipino restaurants now in Dubai. But these restaurants have been recommended to us from Filipinos living in Dubai to give them a welcome dinner or lunch so that they can eat a lot. And these restaurants serve buffets so the good thing is that you can eat all you want and eat all you can. You can eat lechon in here, sisig, there is also crab and shrimp. There are a lot of choices you know. You can try to visit and dine on this place guaranteed you will have a full tummy when you go out. 😄

    Went here for a weekend buffet lunch on a Friday with friends for the first time after having been in Dubai for 2.5 years. The lunch buffet is AED79 per person; drinks are not included. The place is clean with enough distancing to observe health and safety protocols. The staff are friendly and accommodating. The dishes were okay. The only ones I really liked were daing na bangus, maja blanca and buko pandan. This place is recommended for meat eaters as they serve lechong kawali, crispy pata but even my husband who eats meat was unimpressed. The watermelon and melon slices tasted bland considering there are lots of good quality seasonal fruits available. I tried their yang chow rice and it was flavourful. Their white penne pasta was tasty but the seafood marinara pasta wasn’t. Since the lunch buffet did not include drinks, we ordered water (Arwa). My friends ordered cafe latte which were watered down. Their marketing says they serve Asian food and I was expecting more like lumpia, pancit (glass noodles). They can definitely improve the selections by changing up the dishes once in a while.

    Great value buffet. Whilst it's a Filipino restaurant, there's a diverse enough selection on offer to also satisfy diners not so familiar with Filipino food thanks to different buffet stations including sushi, salads, pizza and some other fusion food. One of the attractions of this restaurant is there is a dedicated pork selection with welcome pork selections including crispy pork hock and belly as highlights to a broader selection of other Filipino pork dishes. Food quality is ok for a buffet, but the price for what's on offer (especially with the current specials) is really what makes this buffet stand out. Be sure to book ahead to guarantee availability.

    The only thing that separates this restaurant from any other Filipino restaurants is that they serve pork. Other than that, I regret to say that there’s nothing special or redeeming about this place. With all other dishes, I’ve had better. Maybe I can recommend a few like beef tapa, buko pandan, and their igado. They also accommodating staff who are very aware of their customers. It’s a good value for money as it’s affordable anyway.

    My go to Filipino pork buffet restaurant. There’s a variety of dishes to choose from. Their kawali, crispy pata and pork belly lechon are a must try! The staff are very accommodating especially Ms. Orchid.

    Best place to celebrate your birthday and to hang out with family. Alot of food choices. Sushi are so tasty and main dishes are just so good. Recommended. Its a bit pricey but still worth the price. Just make sure you are so hungry if you plan to dine in Lamesa

    The food was amazing and the waiters are accommodating. Just Kindly change the menu because we were about to order the buffet with free flow of drinks on the menu however the waiter told us that it is not available anymore and for the attending hostess, she seems nice but not so accommodating unlike the waiters.

    5* recommended for buffet lovers, Filipino Cuisine! BUT notice only 1server attend to customers needs per table (total of 4 rows, 1server per 2rows of the whole venue, imagine if 1row to serve 6tables) so service was bit slow. Nevertheless, food menu is 5*

    If you are Filipino, then you will love this place. It's a great place to celebrate special days and to gather with families and friends. Food, is great since I love our own Filipino dish. The good thing in Lamesa they also serve pork. It's a mouth-watering dishes like our all time favorite lechon, crispy pata, dinuguan, sisig etc. You can also enjoy their other dishes like sushi, pizza, and dimsum. When it comes to service, they have fast service and very accommodating, and will make you feel that your in home town. And since this restaurant is located inside of the Hotel, they also offer different liquor. Apparently since the place is a little bit old, I hope that they can change the interior part of the restaurant, to make it vibrant and chill atmosphere.

    Absolutely amazing! I went there for the pork dishes, and they were way better than my expectations! Delicious! The atmosphere is dynamic, not a boring fine dining experience. Totally recommended 👌

    Perfect place to celebrate any occasion. Hospitable staffs. They have a lot of food variety to choose. Starting from Appetizers to Main Courses and sinful Dessert’s. They offer different cuisine every day. They’re open for reservations and walk-ins. I definitely recommend this filipino buffet. Kudos to the whole Lamesa Team!

    At Lamesa, I feel Im in Philippines. Most of my favorite Filipino Dishes are in the buffet menu. Salad bar with all the veggies you like the dressings, cheeses etc then there's the soup bar with the lomi and the sidings to go with lomi. I like the Pizza bar 3 variants of pizzas, the maki of all kinds..it will be best if with sashimi and sushi. But nonetheless the 6 types of makis were there with the ginger and wasabi. All hot dishes some of the menu o can recall- chicken lollipop, KAREKARE with bagoong, yummy, dinuguan, seafood mukbang style shrimp mussels and squid, mixed veggies broccoli and cauliflower, steamed rice Pinoy style, chicken siomai, with delish garlic chilli and soy sauce, pad Thai, and many more, pasta bar is present too Alfredo pasta and tomato spaghetti sauce My favorite is the fresh ready for chopping CRISPY PATA. With all the lechon sauce, soy sauce, with Suka, chilli vinegar. The dessert corner all the Yun cakes sapin sapin, fresh fruit, buko pandan,lecheflan macaroni salad and all salad fruits. The missing piece for the 99 aed per head buffet is the drinks just buy 1 drink and water bottle ala carte or drink outside Bec 169 aed more or less unli drinks and buffet is too much. That's the missing to the perfect score . The drinks ... Went there Dec 3 2023. Overall delicious and worth it thank you for the birthday celebration cake slice for our celebrant that day Mylene's brother kuya noel.

    This was my second time for dinner buffet at Lamesa as i wanna show to my partner that Lamesa have authentic style serving when it comes to Crispy Pata, Lechon Kawali, 🐷 Bbq. which is still no regrets my cravings satisfied. But i just want to highligh whoever will come bring your own Jacket 😢 Headphone 😅 Why? First u will freez, I even told to waiter and waiter pass the message the incharge of the resto. He came and tell me that maybe you just feel cold mam’ somehow if anyone raise about AC issue will adjust it. “unsolve problem” like u put ur food in a seconds and its cold already. which u wont enjoy ur food as u have to eat them quickly. Music? Very low i felt eating in a Fish Market u heard more talking people in a background. Running kids around. Price? 200aed for two with drinks. is it worth it? nah! the selection of food is not that much compare it to the other buffet we had been.

    It was a great experience. This place was the best hang out Sunday lunch because the food was the best. The service is extremely fast and efficient. Also, they are very accommodating. The only thing that I was not happy the ladies at the entrance before you entered the restaurant from the elevator. They are asking you to sign up for the raffle. You have to put your name, mobile number, and position. They will tell you that it was the entrance admission. Then, expect by the next day they will keep on calling you and tell you that you Win their raffle and you have to come to their office. And to find out they are not connected with Asiana. And it is partly a scam. Good thing, I never come to their office for an awarding.

    The cakes are actually better than the food itself. Drinks are available as add-on basis which is very expensive.

    We had a very good experience when we dine here and we were assisted by the staff Shiela. She was very accommodating and friendly. She's doing extra miles for the service we received. The food was very savory and well plated. This was our First time and surely will come back with more friends and Family members! Thank you and we are very satisfied!

    Another go to Filipino fine dining restaurant, if you miss the food in the Philippines, go with your loved ones and enjoy their buffet, we have been here not only 5 times, even more than that. Not only the main dishes but as well as their dessert is very pleasing not to mention the choux pastry, we keep on coming back for about 3 times. We enjoyed their sushi too, its worth your money and time to travel to eat here.

  • 5/5 JOSE ARIES A. 9 months ago on Google
    For me the food is good, crunchy lechon. Hot soup of sinigang catfish. affordable. Try that the sushi.

    Good Filipino foods! I honestly love the fried okra (lady finger), dinuguan, and the cream puffs! Great service. People are always ready to serve you well even their Manager Sir Fel was very attentive. Shiela will make make sure you were properly accommodated

    The staff are all nice and accommodating.🙂 The food is OK. I’m actually expecting that it will be tasty and will feel that I am home (Philippines) but it didn’t feel that way. Sisig was tasteless and it’s my favorite…☹️ Buko pandan though is tasty and crispy pata is legit. It is also quite loud when they sing “happy birthday”. Like you’re in a middle of riot or something…😅

    If you're already full, don't come here! My wife and I have discovered a new favourite buffet in DXB. Their food is delicious, the ambiance is perfect, and the staff is friendly and professional. See you again real soon! Highly recommended!
