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+
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 its a Filipino restaurant, theres 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 whats on offer (especially with the current specials) is really what makes this buffet stand out. Be sure to book ahead to guarantee availability.
The place you have to be for the Asian food.. especially if you love pork meat..Cant forget the birthday celebrations 🎊 that left everyone amazed...Overall service and the food and value for money is excellent...Will definitely be back soon.
Good service and great food, we will surely recommend for our non muslim friends and will definitely come back soon!
The place was nice.. We tried the dinner buffet. The food was good but theres a log time on replenishment due to the number of customers i think for cost control. take note there is meat but the lechon taste of meat & skin was dissappointing.. Need to improve.. Hoping its also to have unlimited drinks. Totally the experience was fine not bad..🤝✌
Filipino cuisine at its finest! Super delicious flavorful food. As a foodie like me, I couldnt ask for more.Such a spacious place, tidy and awesome. A resto to probably you wouldnt missed. Ive been in La Mesa to celebrate special occasions as they offer great discounts too.Amazing experience I could tell 😉
Do we still need to say how great it is ?10 years part of our tradition now and historyKeep it up guys
A very exquisite place if you are interested in filipino home style traditional cooking! They also offer other variants of food like sushi and live cooking of pasta/ noodles plus they also have a great selection of drinks!!
If you miss eating 🐽. This is where you should go 😉 I love the food and ambiance. Great place to celebrate every occasions with your family & friends. If it’s Weekend, I suggest you call for reservation so you don’t need to wait.Note: They have free parking. No Vale Parking during pandemic but you can park on your own in the basement. Just go on the side of the Hotel and you’ll see the entrance going to the Basement Parking.
From Riyadh visiting Dubai. First in our list to eat dinner is here. The best ang pork dishes especially dinuguan and sinigang. No. 1. We ll be back for more.
The buffet price is very reasonable for the price. The choices of foods are amazinf, the staff are friendly, the ambiance is welcoming and playing a soft music.
Food was NOT nice at all, the smell was awful in the restaurant. We will NOT visit again definitely.
The food is great😉 I had eaten there several times already and will still come back for sure🙂
The best place to eat seafoods and other delicacies try to visit this and i know you will love it 😁😁😁😁🎉🎉dubai
The place has good ambience. The food was great and the staff friendly.I just feel that they should add more service staff (waiters).They have good social distancing and the buffet had a wide variety if food. I particularly like that the food from the chaffing dish were being setved instead of the guest scooping the food themselves. It felt safer that way.
The pork was tough.Their chefs was not that friendly / happy to serve. Except for the guy in the dessert area 🙂
Best food and little bit pricey
The food is better if its hot, the waiters should focus more on assisting their customers rather cleaning the table.
The place was awesome! Good food! Plus they serve pork!!Would be better to get an reservation and an empty stomach ahead of time before going as the place get packed really quickly from opening! And its a buffet.Price is not bad for a plate.Would recommend the sisig and ofcourse the lechon kawali and crispy pata !! Will visit this restaurant again when Im back in Dubai 👌🏼
As always this is the place to eat different varieties of food that we miss from home, great food and f&b service are given to be consistent.However, I came to the buffet section twice and got 1 stick of isaw at each time, the chef told me that they were preparing with a sarcastic body language (we are all wearing facemasks but our body language says it all - be very careful). What a lame excuse given when you were seriously on the first hour of operation. If so, then what did you do for todays mise en place? If I was told it was just for limited quantity, I would be more than happy to understand.Went for another round to get my favorite dinuguan, asked the other chef at the same counter to put it in a separate bowl, he then took the smallest scoop in Dubai that I had to ask him again to put a little bit more and so he was generous enough to put another smallest scoop which made think that eating in a carinderia would have been better. If what we are paying is not covering the cost, then by all means increase the rate and give the service that your guests deserve.I lost my appetite and didnt bother to get dessert to avoid the same treatment.
They Have too much additional charge.. Nah!
I actually was in Yuraku, formerly it was Manilla grill....and only one word....WOW!!!Fresh, quick, great grill, Asahi beer!Life is gooooooood......
Not as same as before. Not so much choices for food now
Very nice buffet! Upon leaving, we were sad that we were full. So many choices and very nice food! Korean, japanese, mongolian and dessert buffet all for 150 aed with unlimited soft drinks as well. Very worth the price! The staff was extremely friendly and generous and came with several prepared dishes to our table that they recommended.
Quality filipino pork dishes with impeccable service, always. I would like to especially commend the team from our last visit - my kid swung on the table (thinking he is light but he is strong sorry) and toppled the table breaking the glasses (terribly sorry). The team helped immediately without any extra charges - just pure customer service, bringing in betadine to clean the tiny bleeding cut on his hand. Much thanks and kudos to the team!
Disappointed. Food was unappealingly bland. Will never come back!
Went on a dinner date with my batch mate in college cause she was craving lechon(pork), and ended up being here. Wasnt really expecting much, but when we were there, we are astounded to see varieties of food selection especially on appetizers and entrées. But most specially their lechon is really good. Affordable rate of 79aed for weekdays aint bad if you are up to a buffet trip.
Not happy, didnt really enough the food, very very less option even the food quality,
Had a dinner in Lamesa restaurant with my colleagues. The Food was absolutely wonderful,interesting menu, reasonable price for drinks,staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Delicious meals that was perfectly served by waiter, Ram.Thanks Ram for your good service & great job.We will definitely come again.
Verry nice service and food i like at
Best Buffet phillipino food available.. Sushi and fish food available.. Very nice party place.. Food and service 5⭐. Seperate party place available for booking
Please can you make your food maintain the quality? Twice we celebrated my sons bday, the food was nice 3-4 years ago. We attended a bday this year and it was very bland and food choices. Siomai, Crispy Pata, DINUGUAN, lechon kawali was a let down.
So yummy all food
Amazing supper yummy FOODS
Best eat all you can.
I am wondering if youre already operating? Because my friend recommended your resto to us...Until now there is no response, is it close or not?#yournotrespondingtothereviews
Buffet food. The food are really plenty. Mostly not allowed for muslim. Above average price but its the only place to eat pork lechon etc. Drinks are not included and quite expensive. Water is included.
Many variety of food... But the pork is salty. Beef mami is a star and beef kare kare and igado. Fruits are fresh.
A great place for PORK lovers...Buffet price was reasonable even though food varieties were less(due current pandemic issues), all dishes were tasty...very pleasant and friendly staff.
Very good 👍👍👌 experience to enjoy food we find hard to cook 😉. Not much money but much better choices of food available to try and enjoy. Healthy food is there for all and you can indulge in what ever you want to try. Tasty food and enjoyable 👌👌😋👌👌 with family and friends. Dont forget your diet status but be very careful with food combinations.. always with moderation is best!!!
Great foods and great service ni kabayan Alyssa! Always a pleasure to dine in @ la mesa.
It is a nice all you can eat restaurant/ eat all you can restaurant serving Filipino and Asian cuisine, and frequented by Filipino expatriates. The dishes had delicious taste. I had a great time with family and friends in a cozy ambiance inside La Mesa Restaurant.
Wonderful foods.
My friends wedding reception was held here. They have a nice place and service. Food were all amazing.
Overflowing Filipino Dishes, Some have Japanese sushi
Good Food and Ambiance
My experience in Lamesa was excellent, amazing customer service specially Joven Santo very helpful and accommodating..Keep up the good work.. Kudos Lamesa Asiana Hotel
Best eat all you can for Non Halal
Very kind and approachable staff. Great food. Nice ambiance. 😊 Feels like Home ♥️
The food is very yummy...love it ..
Pork all you can.
Food is really good! Service is great!
I like their pork dishes the most. Prices are really fair.
The pork they serve was nice. The sushi and dessert also delicious. The location also easy to reach by metro or bus.
I am a Filipino, hence this is a go-to place if i miss crispy pata, lechon kawali, bopis and pork bbq.😉😋
Eat all u can 😊..good and yummy taste
Great food and perfect ambiance. Friendly staff too at reasonable price.
Definitely a let down. Comparing to their food a couple of years back when they just recently open. The food tasted great. Now? Disappointing. The pork, not so much preparation and love given to it. You can tell its not crunchy and seems like from freezer straight to frying. The meat is not tender and juicy. If you crave for pork, then you can go here. But dont expect to be satisfied.
Love it
I would like to share my first experience In this restaurant , Fast forward over all the food is very delicious but the thing catches my eyes is one of the chef preparing and cutting of the California maki ( salad and japanese section ) is not wearing gloves . 🤦🏻♀️ My friend is complaining also of the the taste of the ice bc its too sweet the waiter never offer any alternatives like sodas or other juices . Writing this not to harm anybody . Thank you
Perfect food. 🙌🙌🙌
Amazing food. Amazing place. Amazing times. Amazing memories.
The amount of food is no longer the same, soup is always beef mami, the sushi tastes bad and sluggishIt feels like you dont get the worth of your money anymore.
One of the best dining place in UAE specially for Filipinos and the price is amazingly value of money where pork also served.
I Had My Proposal in this place today and I LOVE IT !from the Staff and the manager Mr. Fel is really nice and take care of everything ! THE BEST !i will come back for sure ❤️
The place is great when it comes to buffet dishes and it has lots of choices from seafood to pizza and grills and some exotic cooked beef and chicken plates from the far east.
