“Seeing great reviews, we had ordered one large veggies on fire pizza. A big let down, earlier we had ordered from "On the Wood" (I think that was the name of the restaurant and it felt like a genuine Italian style pizza but this one felt like downgraded version of dominos pizza. The cheese was so chewy and the base felt so stale. Won't order again from here.”

Try Breakfast. Consider breakfast: the English breakfast, breakfast burrito and coffee were described as quick and enjoyable.
Choose Thin Crust. If ordering pizza, choose the thin-crust style; one reviewer specifically says that is the restaurant’s speciality.
Order Prawns. The volcano prawns are a strong starting point, particularly if you enjoy dishes with a presentation element.
Plan To Linger. Bring time for books or board games rather than treating the visit as a quick meal.
Check Extras. Ask what is included before ordering pasta: one diner was charged extra after expecting chicken with the Alfredo pasta.
Watch Portions. If portion size matters, check serving expectations when ordering; a reviewer found the burger’s accompanying fries particularly small.

One recent diner found the Veggies on Fire pizza had chewy cheese and a stale base, comparing it unfavourably with Domino’s-style pizza.
Reviews describe occasional execution problems, including cold coffee, dry dough, burned-tasting pasta and dry volcano prawns.
Some diners felt the pricing was high for Dubai Silicon Oasis, including AED 52 for Alfredo pasta without chicken.
Portion sizes have disappointed some diners, particularly the fries served with a burger and an octopus dish.
A vegetarian reviewer found the options limited and disliked the veg burger, describing the pumpkin soup as salty.
The Bottom Line
Foodings is a relaxed global-cuisine restaurant in Dubai Silicon Oasis, with enough variety for breakfast, family dinners and casual catch-ups. You can order breakfast all day, including English breakfast and hash browns, or try better-known dishes such as volcano prawns, lamb shank and milk cake. The setting is part of the appeal.
Reviews mention comfortable indoor and outdoor seating, music, books and board games, so it works well when you want to stay a while rather than eat and leave. Families have also praised the welcoming atmosphere, while breakfast visits were described as quick and enjoyable. There is a clear quality caveat: experiences are not completely consistent.
Diners have reported chewy, stale pizza, dry dough, cold coffee, burned-tasting pasta and dry prawns. Portions have also felt small to some guests, especially the fries with a burger and an octopus dish. Vegetarian choice is another concern, with one reviewer strongly disliking the veg burger.
Prices may feel high for the area; one diner paid AED 52 for Alfredo pasta without chicken and expected the chicken to be included. It is worth checking extras before ordering, and choosing carefully if you are visiting specifically for pizza or vegetarian food.
