    Salad and veggie options
    Yu-kwong C.

    I love going to a buffet for the simple reason that it's ALL you can eat. I don't need to "agonize" over what to order. On the flip side, the fear of overeating sometimes makes me think twice. But dimassis's is one of those places I don't have to worry about consuming more than I should. They have a good variety of salads and veggies! I've been to this place many times with my friends and family. I always go for their salads. I'm not very picky about salads. So they all look to me. I love their parsley salad and green salad. There is also a good selection of hummus. I love beets. Their chunky, blood red beet is a must for me. To go with my veggies, I always get at least a bowl of their soup. Lentil soup is my favorite, which is very savory. Of course, I won't pass up their pita bread, fresh and fluffy. As to meat options, I like their grilled tilapia, gyros, and chicken kabobs. They are all very delicious! For beverages, I love their rose tea, which I rarely see at other Mediterranean restaurants. To conclude my meal, I get their signature and my favorite dessert, baklava. It's very nutty, but not too sweet. I usually get at least a couple to satisfy my sweet tooth! This place is quite big. I never have any trouble getting a table even for a large party. The service there is fine. Since it's buffet style, you basically serve yourself. So I have no complaints :)

    Good buffet spot. Clean, spacious and a large selection of meats and various salads. I'd say it's one of the better buffet spots around town. Everything is self serve and you pay upon entering. They have a few different types of chicken dishes and kebab/gyro type meats. Also a few different selections of rice and traditional pita bread. Not bad at all and recommend if you can handle all the food.

    4 stars, could be 5 but needs some improvement. The man at the front, super not friendly. I have gone here many times, never friendly, he doesn't even smile. They have gloves which is nice when handling all the food spoons. Great array of salads and cold sides. I do wish they had more of Greek style tzatziki. They have a cucumber yogurt dip but it's not the best when you are a tzatziki lover. The food is decently flavorful some things are better than others. I enjoy having options. I had salsa with sides and pita. After that chicken, two different styles. They are cooked well. I tried the fried chicken but not a fan. Then I had some lentil soup which is good and not salty. The rice and veggies are good, I wish they had some sautéed onions in with the veggies or on their own. I ended with a tasting of their desserts (forgot to take pic) which are good. Rice pudding was empty and it was 8:30 so I wish there would have been some. They even have ice cream but have to ask for that. It was a Saturday and the cost was $26 with tax. I think it's worth that, they do have a luch price during the week. Lots of seating, accommodates big parties, kid friendly.

    Wow that's about all I can say, the food was absolutely delicious, from the Hummus to the lamb shank and even biryani just incredible the pita is stone hearth cooked and the lemonade with mint!!!!!!! I don't find many places like this at home so I can't wait to be back In the area to eat here again. I can't recommend this place enough!!!! Incredibly clean and very nice staff so glad I was recommended this place!!! Sam at the front hooked me up with the best lamb shank I've had in years !!!

    It's a buffet so ambiance is so so and it's self service. Not the best Mediterranean food I've had but it's unlimited and if you're not craving anything particular it's the way to go. There baba ghanous, garlic sauce and gyro are my personal faves. Load up on their meats and dips- skip the dessert in my opinion.

    my literal favorite place ever! so many vegan options plus the food is just so good! so easy you just walk in pay and eat

    I might have given this place 5 stars, but it's definitely not hygienic. The plates and bowls were not clean. They close at 9 PM and we went there around 8:30 PM, so they were about to shut down. The guy at the counter told us we only had half an hour and we said that was fine. They have a large buffet, and the food was excellent we really loved it. I personally love Mediterranean food it's one of my favorites. But I was shocked to see a guy taking food with his bare hands, without gloves, and eating dessert right in front of me while touching everything around. I was watching him and he clearly didn't care. That really put me off. I left my plate and told my friends I was too disappointed to continue. This place seriously needs to take better care of hygiene. I like the food here, but this experience was very disappointing this time!!!!

    See all

    The best quality Dimassi's. Going at a peak hour is going to have the freshest food options since the turnover is faster. No complaints.

    Ask the Community - Dimassi's Mediterranean Buffet

    Hi. My kid is allergic to some oils. Is there ingredient list of the mils?

    Nobody knows what you're asking.

    What is your brand of chicken is it hand cut halal?

    No.

    Do you have any dessert options for vegans?

    No why would they.

    Do you make your hummus in house and is your feta cheese pasteurized (safe for pregnant women)?

    Yes we do. Our Feta cheese is made out of pasteurized whole milk.

    No one answers call wonder if it open for dinner today as 5/5/2021 ? What's the price?

    Try going in and asking next time.

    Are you currently open for self serve buffet and able to dine in?

    Yes we are. Bring your mask and you’re good to go...looking forward to seeing you!

    Is it 100% halas?

    I talked to owner of this place he was truly religious man. I do not think he will use non halal meat. You can call and ask.

    What meats do you serve on your buffet?

    Kafta kabobs, chicken kabobs, gyro, grilled chicken, shredded beef, meat balls, fried chicken, fried fish, baked fish and lamb shanks.

    Is it still self serve buffet or have they changed the set-up so that only the employees are touching the utensils?

    Hi Melanie. It is still self serve, however, it is mandatory for everyone prior to touching the utensils to use hand sanitizer and wear gloves. Sanitizer and gloves are provided at multiple spots. In addition, social distancing, table separation,… Read more

    Can you bring your own alcohol beverage?

    Unfortunately, alcohol beverages are not allowed inside the restaurant.

    In one of the pictures I saw a sign that said "take all you want but eat all you take" and there was a sur charge per lb. Does that mean you get to take what you don't eat home at that charge?

    I didn't see anyone enforcing this rule. Also, I didn't see boxes for "to-go". The food was delicious and I'd recommend checking them out. Just don't be wasteful and you'll be just fine. :)

    Do you serve just one lamp shank for each visitor?

    Nobody knows what a lamp shank is.

    Anyone know if there are vegan options?

    Yes. Most Mediterranean vegetarian food is also vegan. Stuffed grape leaves, hummus, tabbouleh, fattoush, etc. Just don't eat the items with feta cheese like the Greek salad.

    Are there items that are completely dairy-free (no milk, butter, cheese, yogurt, etc)? If so, what are the examples of these dairy-free foods? Are there signs on the buffet or do we have to ask the kitchen?

    It is easier to list the Items with dairy products (contain milk, butter or yogurt): Spinach with Feta cheese, chicken Kabob, grilled chicken, pasta salad, Greek salad, rice pudding, tatziki sauce, yogurt with cucumbers sauce, namora and coconut… Read more

    What's the difference between weekday and weekend dinner? Just wondering about the price difference?…

    Wk days dinner: $12.72 + tax Weekend and Friday dinner: $14.77 + Tax

    Is this BYOB?

    Although there is no specified prohibition to BYOB, the owners and staff are Muslim and alcohol is forbidden by their religion. To bring alcohol to DiMassi's would be disrespectful in my opinion.

    What is the dinner price? Also is there a kids price?

    Lunch price Monday-Friday.... $11.99 + tax Dinner price Monday-Thursday...$12.92 + tax Weekend price… Read more

    What's the price for kids? Also, is there lamb curry? If so, is it available all week long or only…

    It is all included.

Upon entering you are greeted with a warm smile, and food came in big family size portions recommended for sharing. It was perfect for my friends and I who were super hungry and wanted to try a few items. We started with the lamb samsa ( not pictured as I was too hungry) which was perfectly baked with a juicy spicy lamb that was super tender inside. We then also had this beef noodle dish which was the best dish of the night. Can't recall the them of it but, I'd definitely come back just for that dish. We also got the lamb shank Plov which was another favorite, and lastly the dumplings, which were our least favorite. The dumpling dough was a but too thick for our liking. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, especially with our server who was so kind and friendly, and so were her family. I'd definitely come back here again to try some of their other dishes next time.

You can tell she genuinely cares about sharing her culture and cuisine. The space itself is lovely, with thoughtful decor and relaxing music that creates a welcoming atmosphere without being too sleepy. It's clear that pride in heritage and culture shines through in every detail. We ordered a little bit of everything - Uyghur laghman, korma chop, Big Plate Chicken, lamb skewers, lamb samsa, and ayran - and every single item exceeded expectations. The lamb skewers were tender and flavorful, but the lamb samsa were the moment we realized we were in for something truly special. They were unbelievably delicious: crisp pastry, deeply seasoned filling, and so aromatic that you don't want the bite to end. Don't let the menu descriptions fool you into thinking the noodle dishes are similar. They might read like variations on meat and noodles, but in reality each one is completely distinct and packed with its own personality. The Big Plate Chicken comes with the widest, springiest noodles and carries the most heat. The korma chop features wonderfully chewy noodles with a medium kick. And the Uyghur laghman (hand-pulled, by the way) has the thinnest noodles and, in my opinion, the best texture of all. Every dish is hearty, rich, vibrant, and so full of flavor that I can't possibly do them justice in words. You simply have to try them yourself. Even the ayran stood out. I've had it many times before, but this one was exceptional - perfectly salty in a way that enhances the tangy, yogurt-like flavor instead of overpowering it. Our total came to $80, but considering we intentionally ordered a wide spread, it works out to about $20 - 30 per person - an amazing deal for food this thoughtful and delicious. Highly, highly recommended. This place is something special, and perfect for anyone looking to experience authentic Uyghur cuisine!

On top of that, the place had a bad smell, which made it feel a little dirty. We originally planned to eat inside but ended up ordering to go because of this. The saving grace was the loaded fries OMG, so good! Honestly, I'd come back just for those.

I used to regular have to ask for corrections but that hasn't been an issue of late. As for the food, they have seemingly doubled the size of their menu so there's much more for me to try out, but their classics like the Brisket, Philly Cheesesteak and especially the Zinger Fried Chicken Sandwich have seen marked improvements. That last comes out crispy, thick and with a spicy garlic mayo that's to die for. If they improve across the board like that it's a winner.
