Buffet House Dabaw — Restaurant in Davao City

You get value for your money here. If you're on a tight budget, this place is for you. However, if you visit during peak times, like Sunday dinner, expect a rush. Wet plates may barely keep up with the crowd, and the old tiled floor, with its cracks, contributes to dirty spots from the high foot traffic. If you're lucky, you'll be placed on the second floor, but be careful—it’s easy to trip while carrying food up the stairs. The second floor is not recommended for seniors and kids.

The taste and variety of the food can easily be compared to attending a fiesta or birthday party in the provinces. If you're a fan of that, then this place is for you. Expect a bustling crowd, as tables are maximized to fit the space.

You have to wait outside before getting seated, and you must pay upfront when you enter.

Parking is challenging for small cars unless you can maneuver over the high bumps from the sidewalk. Be prepared to find a spot on nearby streets, as the parking lot fills up quickly.

If you plan to try this place, choose a non-peak time and day—avoid Sunday dinner to escape the crowd. Don’t be picky, as you are paying...

We had to wait outside for others for us to go inside — I mean it's understandable since the place inside does not have a sufficient space for people to wait.

I don't know why they made us wait outside when there were literally a lot of unoccupied/not reserved tables on the 2nd floor. The food was good though. We also watched as other's birthdays were celebrated as we waited for their queue, it was my mom's special day that day

Speaking of food, everything is good, typical buffet viands. It's just only the service and there's still more room for...

Well, i can say that the service is good. We met the owner (or manager) and she is very friendly. The service is good and the staff is accommodating. I just want to have a concern (we). The plate is kinda oily, not all the plate but some of them, the food is really good in like there's a bunch of selection for the food na talagang ikaw nalang ang aayaw and the food is also yummy but some of their food is not really good in terms of how hey put spices. For instance, their cantoon is too salty but i know you can improve. The lechon is very good (the spices is mixed well). Overall, i love the staff, food, and services. There is always a room for improvement and I WILL RECOMMEND...
