The OG when it comes to the premiere eall all you can buffets in the Metro. Dad's ultimate buffet still is one of the best buffets even in today's super competitive buffet battleground. Their Japanese section has lost a bit of charm as they no longer have some of the secret menu like the cucumber wrapped maki with jap mayo and some uni. Saisaki steak was also missing. However, carving station was still lit as they had lamb, roast beef, turkey, ham and the filipino lechon. Of course, their tempura is good as well as the different katsu but one thing I noticed was their indian and spanish section. They have the chicken biryani and lamb curry which were really nice. There is definitley room for improvement in terms of dishes. I skipped over the chinese, korean and italian. I got some dinakdakan and bicol express from the Kamayan section (Filipino). All in all, I still had a great time at Dad's.

Very well decorated. Food displays are really nice. This was during my recent visit last week with friends.
Didn't enjoy the desserts nga lang, parang kulang sa luto esp mga sapin sapin, biko at palitaw. ✌

A must try is Palabok, Kuhol, Japanese Sushis and Chinese food.
We were there Dinner time so some of the food were not refilled and konti lang ang display. Napansin ko lang and it mejo affected my ratings.

Lots of food choices plus excellent service will ensure you have a great meal. It’s just noticeable that they are no longer serving shrimp tempura in the menu. I particularly like their kare kare, their native desserts and their four seasons shake. Will definitely still recommend this place and be back.

Situated along the busy road of EDSA southbound, it's actually hard to miss the place. It'll be my second time dining in with Dad's, the first was at their Megamall branch.

Per se, parking is available at the back via Connecticut road (street parking with a minimal fee). But if you're confident enough, there are also free parking spaces available up front but of course, it'll be a hassle if there are no slots given that this is situated along EDSA.

Ambiance is much more comfy and homey. The place is also bright and well ventilated; attendants in the reception / waiting area is also cheerful and helpful with the reservation seats.

Attendants are well mannered and prompt. Water refills are spot on, no need to call their attention as they move fast as well as removing finished plates in the table. They also do their rounds offering juice and shakes so, you don't have to go to the dispenser everytime you run out of refreshments.

As for the food, taste and price; it was average to good. Some were really tasty like their crispy pata, lechon kawali, sushi, mini ube cake, mini raspberry bites, cream puff while others weren't that memorable.

Special mention to the pastry section, (most) of the (mini) cake and cupcakes offered were really good. I'd give it a 8.5/10 for that - consistency is key, I tried 2 different batch of mini cupcakes; others were too wet (batter) while others didn't.

The sushi section was also surprisingly good. I'm quite picky with my sushi since I have really high standards ( i super love sushi) so, I'd rate it a 8/10. The raw fish (sashimi) didn't look fresh and appealing to me tho but I guess, you can prolly try it too.

Overall, the food was good. Service was spot on! Hope y'all keep that up. For the price, we had it on discount but I guess they do offer lots of meat carvings which makes it a reasonable enough that you won't have to complain.

Kamayan Saisaki is one of the famous buffet in Metro Manila.  It is also the site for many gatherings and meetings. This buffet located along EDSA had been serving buffet long before others did it.  Here is our Dads Saisaki Kamayan Buffet review.  Thanks to Doraemon PH for inviting us to experience this place.

Went here once and it's our boss treat. It's a weekday lunch and valet parking saved us time.

The place is big and can really accommodate a lot of customers. There are many variations of food and drinks. It's really a great idea to combine three buffet resto in one place! This place is heaven. Lol. 😂

Weekdays are okay. Not too many people are there when we ate. But I guess we all know what it's like in a buffet resto during a weekend, right? Better to call and reserve a table beforehand.

I will definitely visit this place again especially during special occasions. 🐷

For a Sunday, we came in at a good time as the place had less people. It's been a while since I visited this area as we always head to the 2nd floor for Sambokojin, which is always full.

It was a very peaceful tour around the smorgasbord. There were a few people, considering it was only around 8pm. I then embarked on a gastronomic journey, holding firmly on my plate as my passport, hopping from one table to the next, traveling from one cuisine to another. I again, appreciated this World Buffet.

I had small portions of Paella, and had Callos. I like the taste of Callos. The tripe was very tender, it was firm but not tough. It was easy enough to eat, cooked just right. The sauce was on the sweet side, although an eyesore was a huge amount of oil has visibly separated itself from the sauce mix. There was a thick transparent pool on one side of the chaffing dish. The consistency of the stew didn't look too appealing, it tasted good though.

I then got some Yang chow and Hot Salad as my trip headed to Asia from Spain. I just thought the Hot Salad was too sweet. I couldn't taste the breaded chicken anymore, the condensed milk was overpowering.

I had some Thai Bagoong rice (Khao Kluk Kapi) with Green Curry and Beef Rendang. I love Thai food, it tasted good. But of course, I have to reserve a space in my stomach for the dish which for me is the holy grail of Filipino buffet... Kare Kare. There I was all confused whether I should have tripe or seafood. I went for seafood eventually, as I had Callos anyway (for tripe). The Kare Kare sauce tasted good, as the peanut taste was evident in its sauce. However, the seafood seemed to overflow with mussels, and the prawns were already missing. Looks like someone went ahead and hoarded them.

I also had some Salmon Sashimi, which turned out to be my palate cleanser as everything was so flavorful. I am grateful that the sashimi was fresh and the fish creamy. The taste did not compete with the other dishes I had earlier as it was very mild. This was to prepare myself for the sweet ending I've been imagining all evening.

For the grand finale, I headed for the dessert area, I had a few chocolate based desserts, then ice cream. I scooped all 4 flavors in one bowl, Chocolate, Vanilla, Strawberry, and Coffee. I placed some nuts, marshmallows, candy sprinkles, chocolate chips, and gummy bears. I drizzled melted chocolate which I collected with a spoon from the chocolate fountain which instantly solidified. I was a child again, deep in my ice cream reverie. If I may suggest though, I think they have to replace the water container for the scooper after every 30 minutes at least. It doesn't look attractive.

Overall, Dads World Buffet has maintained their reputation for a good eat-all-you-can experience.

I had a great time. I had to procrastinate on my diet again though, oh well. 😊

Been here since forever. Renovations and umprovements have been made to compete with newcomers. At one point they had poor food and service but recrntly have been rejuvenated with proper management. I am here now for a birthday baptismal. Time to eat. Attack!

Still the original buffet place to go, food and quality is often much better than most restaurants that offer buffet with fancy hotel like ambiance. But they must improve their service and menu is some branches, price per person is still lower compared to other establishments, trust your gut instincts you can never go wrong with Dads...😀😀

Dads is the perfect place for my family. It has a wide range of choices for the family. The japanese, pinoy and steak choices basically covers my family's favorite foods to eat. We had a great time mixing japanese and Filipino foods. What a taste explosion of flavors.

I first came here back in early 2000's. And I can conclude that the food has evolved since then. When I first visited this place, the food didn't amused me much and I just munched on their desserts. But today, it's a WOW! What I like most is their ham and the sweet sauce. The sauce looks like a moss. But seriously, this is the most delicious thing I've tasted here. They have a variety of Japanese and Pinoy foods (what can you expect with the resto name huh). They also offer a very 'Crispy' Pata here. For juice, I like their watermelon shake. Four seasons tastes like they've poured out a kilo of sugar in it.

You can also request songs from them and they will sing it to you on live. The lady who's singing really has a very beautiful voice.

Affordable buffet with great selection of foods. I always enjoy having unlimited slices of salmon sashimi and kani salad here. They don't scrimp on the ingredients, the meals taste so good. I also love their seafood soup (I dont know what it's called). Their desserts didn't disappoint too. Surely worth it.
