While searching for Dimasi's, I stumbled upon Ehab's and noticed their weekday dinner buffet was listed online for $19.99 + tax, which is cheaper than Dimasi's. Intrigued, I decided to give it a try.
The food was actually quite good, and they even had some unique items on the menu. However, when the bill arrived, I was a bit surprised. The buffet price was charged at $20.99 + tax instead of $19.99, and drinks were charged separately at $1.98 + tax each.
I left with mixed feelings. Because the food was good, I didn't want to make a fuss about the price difference and the separate drink charges, so I'm still leaving a positive review. However, I’m mentioning the pricing here so others don't get caught off guard like I did. (To be fair, I later noticed that the separate drink charge was mentioned online in small print, but I completely missed it initially). Highly recommend checking the current prices before ordering to avoid any unwanted arguments!
Oh my God, this Mediterranean buffet is an absolute hidden gem! The food was incredibly fresh, full of flavor, and honestly way better than I expected from a buffet. Every bite felt homemade, from the grilled meats to the rice, salads, dips, and desserts. The variety was amazing, the quality was top-notch, and everything was clean, warm, and well-presented.
You seriously won’t believe how good the food is until you try it. If you love Mediterranean food, this place is a must-visit. Great taste, great value, and a buffet that actually feels premium. I’ll definitely be coming back again and again!
Highly recommended. 5 stars all the way!

Overall, the experience was mixed. I enjoyed the hummus, pita bread, tea, and rice pudding, and the service and atmosphere were pleasant. However, several dishes missed the mark for what I expect from authentic Mediterranean food.
The tabouli was dry and needed more olive oil, lemon, mint, and salt to bring out the fresh flavors that make the dish special. The baklava was unfortunately very dry, lacked enough syrup, and was burned on the bottom to the point that I couldn’t finish eating it. The chicken dish had good flavor, but the meat itself was tough and seemed undercooked for tenderness.
My impression is that the kitchen may not fully understand authentic Mediterranean preparation, because these are the kinds of details that are usually carefully balanced in traditional cooking. I do know of another restaurant in the area that gets these dishes exactly right, though I won’t mention them out of respect for this business.
If you are looking for truly authentic Mediterranean food, you may want to explore other options. Considering the prices, I did not feel the meal was worth what I paid. Everything beyond the few items I mentioned enjoying felt average rather than exceptional.
The restaurant has only changed its name, but nothing else seems to have improved. They display photos of dishes that I did not find in the buffet at all. I'm not sure if those pictures are just for advertising or if that food is only served on specific days, but what I found was exactly the same items and setup they've had for years without any real change. Overall, the food is acceptable, and the salad bar is probably the strongest part of the buffet. The staff are cooperative and will bring out anything that runs out, but the experience does not match the impression given by their promotional photos.
I placed an online order today and paid. Got a text that it will be ready in 20min. When we reached the restaurant after 30 min, the front desk lady Nisa had no clue about the order. Then she said she will make the order now after I showed her the confirmation email…I asked her to cancel the order if not ready and she said she cannot. Nisa was extremely impolite and rude in her behavior. Although i placed ala carte items, she went ahead and filled up the items from the buffet after almost 15 min of another wait…..Very bad customer service and rude front desk lady. My first experience was extremely disappointing. Do not order online!
