Dish N Dash

They had a great selection of Mediterranean and Middle Eastern food. The place is big enough to host lots of people and it is a nice, casual environment. The food was great! They give you a lot of food forsure! The meats can feel heavy

Delicious food, generous portions and cozy ambiance!! This restaurant is such a great example of value for money! I had Veggie Shawarma Wrap with side of Falafel and Lentil Soup. It was really good. We got cauliflower wings for the table which was the only disappointing dish from all the things we tried. Chicken dishes were good too, my husband loved Biryani Dajaj. I also always love their fresh juices. My favorite is Apple + Ginger + Lemon. The small Chrismasy decor and fireplace added extra love to our holiday family lunch.

The variety of dishes is great. Lots of authentic Middle Eastern options and the chefs and staff clearly know what they’re doing. However, I didn’t enjoy the shawarma meat. It was fried instead of grilled which isn’t how shawarma is traditionally prepared. Also one of the side dishes I ordered never arrived. When I asked, the staff member said it was “inside the shawarma,” which wasn’t true.

My mansaf had way too much yogurt sauce and not enough lamb, a small mound of rice in the middle. Lamb was tender, but 5 rather small pieces are not worth $25.75. More rice and lamb please! My husband’s meal was much more satisfying with a tender chicken kebab, hummus, rice, vegetables and pita bread. The pita was store-bought I think, not made in the restaurant, but fresh. The tasty kebab had smoky flavors and we both enjoyed it. The fresh juice drinks were flavorful and refreshing. We were sitting next to the dish bussing area, way too noisy. I think the employee was clanking the dirty dishes together loudly on purpose, we had to move it was so loud.

Biriyani Dajaj is a unique and exceptional dish at this restaurant. Food is delicious served fresh and piping hot every single time. Food quality is steadily great and our go to restaurant in the Bay Area.

The food is pretty nice and is a good value. Very informal - you order at the counter and they bring it to your table. Was not busy at all when we visited. I would come back again. Update - we returned recently to try more menu items. Food is still great. The place was very busy (Tuesday night). You get a lot of food with most of the menu items, so it becomes a very heavy meal. Plan accordingly.

DishDash never misses. I’ve been visiting for years, and it consistently delivers bold flavors and warm hospitality. If you haven’t tried their Pulled Sumac Grill and chicken shawarma, you’re missing out—it’s tender, tangy, and unforgettable. Highly recommend!

My husband and I had dinner at the Dish n Dash location in Milpitas on Friday, Nov 21,2025, early evening. We ordered the Pulled Sumac Chicken with Basmati Rice and Tabouli, and the Beef Shawarma Humus. Both dishes were delicious. We had a glass of Rose wine and an STS Pilsner from Russian River Brewery. They have a very good beer selection, and the alcohol prices are reasonable. Will definitely come back!
