The Bottom Line

Broccoli Pizza & Pasta is a casual Italian restaurant in DIFC built around made-to-order pizzas and pasta. The live counter lets you choose vegetables, sauces, spices, pasta shapes and extras, so it suits diners who want to adjust a meal rather than simply pick from a fixed plate. Popular orders in the reviews include chicken BBQ pizza, spicy ranch chicken pizza, shrimp pasta and lasagna.

The strongest pattern is value and generous portions. One reviewer said the chicken pasta was enough for two, while the reported 109 AED Family Meal included a salad, pasta, two medium pizzas and two cold drinks for sharing. The Sheikh Zayed Road branch is also described as open 24 hours, with plenty of parking, making it useful for late meals or an unplanned stop.

Service and consistency are the main reasons to be cautious. Several customers reported slow or dismissive service, including waits of nearly 25 minutes and an order delivered 30 minutes late. There are also reports of missing ingredients, a pepperoni pizza in a vegetarian meal, and chicken in a vegetarian pasta order.

One customer additionally reported seeing cockroaches in the kitchen. Check customised or dietary orders before leaving, and allow extra time if you visit during a busy period.
