The branch is described as open 24 hours, and one reviewer enjoyed a calm late-night lasagna meal.
The Family Meal included salad, pasta, two medium pizzas and two cold drinks, and was described as shareable for two to four.

It is a cookie made in the form of a pizza. Hence, the name is derived from combination of pizza” and “cookie.”January 2021

“We had veg thin crust pizza, veg salad and veg pink sauce pasta. Pizza was thin crust with generous amount of cheese and vegetables, just I wish they have little more pizza sauce added to it. Nevertheless it was decent in taste. Mixed sauce pasta was saucy, decent proportion of veggies and pasta and tasted superbly delicious. Absolutely loved this.”

Check orders. If ordering vegetarian, confirm the contents before leaving; one takeaway reviewer found chicken in the pasta.
Allow time. Avoid a tight schedule: reviews mention waits of nearly 25 minutes and an order arriving 30 minutes late.
Customise boldly. Ask for your preferred vegetables, sauces, spices, extra meat or cheese; the live counter supports these changes.
Try combos. For a group, check the meal deals: the reported Family Meal included salad, pasta, two medium pizzas and drinks.
Visit late. The branch is reported open 24 hours, and one late-night visit found the atmosphere calm and peaceful.
Check payment. Carry cash and check your change and invoice, as one late-night customer reported no payment machine and a disputed amount.

Several reviews describe long waits, including a 25-minute wait before a refund and a 30-minute delay for an order.
A vegetarian takeaway was reported to contain chicken, while another order was missing both its chicken and broccoli.
One customer reported seeing cockroaches in the kitchen area; this is a serious allegation worth considering before visiting.
Some customers found dishes bland or under-seasoned, including three pastas described as lacking salt or spice.
A vegetarian meal deal was reported to arrive with a pepperoni pizza instead of the requested vegetarian option.
These are customer-reported mentions, not a current price list. Prices may have changed.

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.
