Buffet style unlimited thali. They have undhiyu almost everyday. I love their vegetable curries as well. We've had their maharashtrian and Gujarati thalis. Some of the dishes are Puran poli, beans curry, aloo mutter, kadhi , dal,shrikhand and appetizers along with fresh rotis and puris. Highly recommended. read more

When you are in a job like mine, traveling and eating out for most part - soon you yearn for "homemade" food or "comfort food". So when I'm in Bay Area - I just find my way to DeeDee Deedee (which meaning 'sister') delivers just that. Homemade food comfort. Their food - right from appetizers to main course is amazing. If I had the luxury to eat all day at Deedee's I'd do that. I love their fresh made phulkas (Indian homemade bread with ghee). Just reminds of eating back home where someone from family serves you right in your plate. Their chaas (buttermilk) is always to refreshing. I like all their entrees (sabji and dals). I crave for their dessert - shrikhand (yogurt based dessert) or gajar halwa (carrot pudding). Last year around this time when I was in Bay Area I took an extra pint of gajar halwa for my colleagues at work - I must tell you, it was a joy watching them fight over every spoon because it was so delicious. I'm kinda shocked why this place has just 3.5 stars - it's 5 star worthy. It's your hole in the wall Indian restaurant - just focus on food and I'm sure you'll not regret the experience. read more

One of the best places for homely food in Bay Area! Delicious and fresh food, especially their rotis. Also love their service, always warm and welcoming :) Have become a regular customer since the first visit, and tried their buffet and ala carte menu. Never disappointed! read more

Great variety and love the buffet style. Extremely tasty vegetarian dishes. Excellent service. Delicious hot homemade naan served at table. Will return! read more

We tried their Lunch Plate and Puri Bhaji Plate. It was very home-like and I really loved their Shrikhand. I have tried Shrikhand at a few other places in the bay area but this one was the best so far. Only thing I felt could be better - the puri's were a little oily and thick like bhaturas. Can be made thinner and less oily. read more

A hidden gem. Absolutely good service and comfort food served hot. We came in to order a dinner plate and ended up trying the buffet here, the menu was Rajasthani and the food was really delicious and tasted homemade with fresh rotis and puris. read more

I came here for the dinner lunch buffet and found it to be a little pricy considering it had limited veg options with mostly daals and one palek paneer curry. The food was average abs the curry didn't have much paneer. Overall the food was mediocre and ambiance was a bit shoddy with paper plates and plastic spoons. read more

stay mad y'all. this place is amazing, it's an all you can eat buffet in Santa Clara. I've seen Sandwiches more expensive than a whole meal here and you can keep eating. The staff is also wonderful. Don't know how all of you missed the 4 and five star button but stay missing, im gonna stay full. read more

Delicious and a perfect buffet. We loved srikhand, khadi the most but all dishes are great!!

After several years of middling service and food quality, Deedee's has bounced back! The owner's son has stepped in and his attention to detail has made it a new 5-star experience. They've brought back chaat to the weekend buffet (pani puri this week) and the Gujarati selection this week was fresh, aromatic and low-oil. Fresh breads are served to your table with care. Healthy, homestyle comfort food for the soul! read more

I used to love this place in previous years. I visited it today after 6 months. Price for buffet increased from $13 to $17. Food quality has gone down. Frozen food material being used in most dishes. Not a single dish which was tasty. Staff seems to have changed as well. Chapathis are good as always but Had to repeatedly go to the payment counter to remind them to serve chapathis. Another surprise at the counter. Notice says no credit card payment below $15 which is ok. But when I paid through credit card another credit card adjustment fee applied bringing my bill close to 20 bucks. read more

Great thali and service. Fresh Rotis are delicious. Slightly on the pricer side. Best Shrikhand in the bay area. read more

Authentic and yummy Indian vegetarian food. Service was quick and nice. Highly recommended!

Food was very delicious. I came back here after long time. Noticed many changes in menu. Before we used to have chaat and panipuri included in buffet. No seeing it anymore. Also there was only Shrikhand as a sweet and sabudana wada as a farsan item. Both we used have 2 different varieties before. Buffet price is bit increases now with less menu. But still work trying. Main thing bother me is some extra "no cash adj" charges as well wich touch total at $39 for 2. read more

We had the buffet here. Food was decent, some dishes were good, some were just ok. Aloo sabzi, aloo tikki, bhel puri, shrikand were good, as well as the freshly made rotis. However, it is definitely pricy for what it is. $17.99 plus tax (plus they tack on a credit card fee of around 4%). Food was very basic like dal, roti, potatoes, etc. Would rather go to an a la carte restaurant and get better value. read more

Recently discovered that Deedee's features regional Indian cuisines for their lunch buffet on weekends. We got to try out their take on Kathiawadi cuisine that featured Deedee's signature airy, light phulka rotis, Bajra Rotis/Gur (Jaggery), Batata wada, Khichdi, Undhiyo among other regular dishes like Pulao, Matar Paneer, Aloo Gobhi, Kadhi, Raita and Srikhand- yum! read more

My friend recommended Deedee's for authentic, home style Indian food, and it definitely delivered on that front! The auntie-like figures sitting in the kitchen help promote the homey vibe, but the food can speak for itself--Deedee's will make you re-think Indian: Unlike the greasy (though delicious) entrees served at most restaurants, the food at Deedee's is not very oily but still flavorful and filling. Deedee's is a vegetarian buffet that offers about 10 different dishes, including a couple desserts and rice dishes. You can head straight for the buffet counter upon entering and load up on yummy plant-based concoctions, and pay after you eat (a very reasonable ~$14 per person). Pro tip: Resist filling up on the rice, as once we sat down one of the men emerged from the kitchen with freshly warmed and buttered chapati for us. From the first spice-filled bite of the creamy curry with peas, I realized Deedee's was special. Even though the food is laid out buffet style, the dal was somehow piping hot and very fresh tasting. Will definitely return for this amazing deal for relatively healthy Indian food! read more

Came here for a quick lunch with my sister. They have a $16 Buffet where you serve yourself. They came around with fresh naan to your table. The staff was friendly. Only thing was none of the dishes were labeled so we weren't really sure what the dishes we were eating. Also I did not realize this was a vegetarian restaurant. But overall it was a good meal read more

This place offers excellent home-made food in the Bay Area. Excellent choice of curries in the buffet as well as fresh rotis from uncle make it worth every penny. Highly recommend, would hope this place never changes and continues to serve perfect comfort food for just an average day. Expectations: this is not a fancy restaurant, it's as close as it gets to a Bay Area dhabha to make some good memories with your friends while drowning yourself in hot comfort food. read more

Stopped by here to see what kind of foods they have...I was impressed to see the all veggie buffet for $17.99, however we ended up getting for to go. Tried their methi aloo bhujia and fresh hot rotis. Pani puri was ok. I would definitely come back for their veggie entrees. read more

Personal recommendations here for pickup would be 1. Sabudana vada 2. Samosa I liked the quality of their food and the fact that a food pickup took 10-15 mins .. food was medium spicy read more

Best place to go for home style food. It's a mix of Gujarati and Punjabi food. The parathas and rotis are fresh and unlimited. Ideal to take a siesta after a lunch there . The shrikand and paratha or Puri is divine. Weekday prices are $11 and so not bad for the quantity. Only problem is (and could be with trb current management) that we have to ask for rotis vs they used to come around all the time. Other than this minor quirk the food is great and fresh. No bloating and feeling too full after eating well. Even my 70+ year mother was fine with the food. read more

This place used to be a five star experience now it is a two star experience. I have fond memories here when it was under previous ownership. I once arrived as first customer of the day and will never forget the delicate care taken in laying out the buffet, quietly blessing the food before customers arrived. It was a moment that showed such rare care, reverence. My most recent experience was like visiting a completely different restaurant. Steel trays are now flimsy foam disposable trays, shrikhand is no longer on the buffet (but available for extra $), and the food is one-note. Sad to see this place fall so far after new ownership. I hope they can revive what once so special. read more

I have always been here for their weekend buffet. I love the food and service here! Very good food with nice homemade chapatis. They have the best Shrikhand! I would always make sure to leave enough room for srikhand towards the end! The staff here is very friendly and cordial! read more

We ordered the weekend lunch special three weeks ago and it was absolutely perfect - the flavors, freshness, and it was neither salty nor greasy. Each weekend specializes on a regional cuisine: 1st weekend: Gujarati (what we tried) 2nd weekend: Maharashtrian 3rd weekend: Rajasthani 4th weekend: Kathiawadi The weekend specials consist of 2 vegetables, dal/kadhi, rice or pulao, 4 roti, and shrikhand. Deedee's dishes and preparation approach follows Ayurvedic practices to achieve a balanced diet that re-energizes and detoxifies the body and mind. read more

Easily the best homely food I have had in a restaurant. All the dishes I have had tasted amazing. What is better than the food is the warmth with which food is served. Few must try items are the dokhlas, shrikhand, gobhi parantha and the free chai ! read more

Quite possibly the most delicious buffet I've ever had. We were also served hot fresh roti and puran poli at the table. Thank you so much, we will be back! read more

Start with the Paani poori - the best in the South Bay. Chase that down with Bhelpuri, the chutney is great. More chaat? Ragda Patties is what you are looking for. Something to go with the Roti? Mutter paneer, Sagu (Potato sabji in gravy) and Shreekhand make good choices. Eminently repeatable - a monthly ritual. read more

Very good maharashtrian homemade food Just love their buffet menu, especially their shrikhand

Ordered a delivery for dinner from here. Very nice packaging for the food. We got the dinner thali which had a good portion of the sabzis, rotis and pulao. Pani puri was very tasty. Definitely a must try. Even the gobi paratha was very well made. We were apprehensive at first to try a takeout for the thali as we have always had a dine-in at Deedee's which has never disappointed. The takeout stood to the challenge and we will definitely be trying it more often going forward. read more

Lunch Buffet was good with fresh curries and chappati. The curries were made fresh and not too spicy or greasy.

The spread has reduced considerably. Shri khand was the best followed by undhiyu (caveat: be ready for lots of oil in your food). Did not find the taste to be that great for the price. read more

Hmm ! What happened to this place. May be the previous owner sold this to someone. Use to be authentic maharastrian food. I use to go there for puranpoli and undiyo. This is place is mostly run by Punjabis now. Which is fine but not like before. Standard Punjabi food. Rotis are freshly made with lot of butter n ghee. read more

highly reccomend! got the dinner combo platter, very yummy food and great amount/quality for the price. this will definitely become a regular spot for my friends and I! read more

We have been getting food to-go from Dee Dee's for many many years now & the quality & consistency of the home-cooked food has not changed even a bit (may be a but for GOOD). Their lunch plate is good for Me & my kid both. Their Undhiyu is yummy. I have never actually tasted Undhiyu in a proper Gujarati setting so this is the closest I have been & I have been a fan. Craving for dessert? No problem.. try their Yummy & Creamy Shrikhand. Pre-Pandemic, we used to go once every 2 weeks & when my parents visited, we went there too & unlike many Indian restaurants in the Bay Area, my parents actually loved the place. Post-pandemic, we have been getting to-go and have never had a single complain. Hats off !! read more

Good option for vegetarians. Ordered combo for takeout and the food was amazing as always. Two sabjis, roti , jeera rice , curry and shrikandh. Enjoyed the meal! Giving four stars as I felt all sabjis were spicy. Mild spicy would have deserved a five star. read more

How can you be so wrong in serving vegeterian food buffet? We tried one curry, didn't like it. We tried another one thinking this might be something good, that was total waste as well. Kept trying all other - Paneer, Cauliflower, Daal and none of them gave a single 1% of satisfaction. Indian buffet in Bay Area and this bad, that was our first and last time here! PS: You guys should try tasting your own food and see where you stand. read more

The management seems to have changed and food was way below the standards. It's 18$ buffet and I could eat at a fine dine at that price point. They also charge 10$ for kids even if they eat one roti..! Such a rip off place. They don't even have pani puri in the buffet now. Home food tastes better than what we had at this place! Would never ever go to this place.. and I would definitely not recommend anyone going to this place read more

I've ordered Deedee's multiple times through DoorDash and each time the quality and taste have been excellent.
