What to Eat at High Joint Motor City How we choose these items We use AI to find praise and criticism of specific foods and drinks in a selection of Google reviews. For High Joint Motor City, this list is based on 50 reviews, not every review of the restaurant. The score is positive reviews minus negative reviews. For example, two positive reviews and one negative review give +1. Each review counts once per item; neutral comments do not change the score. A zero score is not a positive recommendation. “Only neutral feedback” means there are no positive or negative votes. “Mixed feedback” means equal numbers of positive and negative votes. The quotes are examples of what people said, not every comment we counted. We use different reviews where we can. We normally show up to 10 foods and 5 drinks with non-negative scores. Items with the same score stay together. If a tied group would go past the limit, that group and the lower non-negative scores go into Honorable mentions. If an overflowing positive top tie would leave the list empty, we show up to 10 items from that tie and keep the rest in Honorable mentions. Foods and drinks with a negative score are under What to Avoid. Use this as a guide to what reviewers liked, not a guarantee that you will like it too.
Foods and drinks mentioned in reviews of High Joint Motor City, ranked by positive reviews minus negative reviews. Zero-score items have no net positive feedback; their labels distinguish neutral-only from mixed feedback.

High & sticky burger Net +1
“First up and the High & Sticky Burger (AED 62) is a really amazing way to kick things off. With slow cooked tender short ribs and the sweet and sticky Asian glaze the meat is melt in the mouth kinda stuff. To get a little crunch there’s also some tempura onion rings with the Asian flavors accentuated by the ginger mayo. All of this in a beautifully soft potato bun. It’s our favorite of the evening and something you need to be a part of.”

Smoking butter soft serve Net +1
“Having stuffed ourselves silly with some truly impressive burgers and ribs, we find room for one more indulgence and that came in the form of the Smoking Butter Soft Serve (AED 17), which is a seriously impressive ice cream featuring real maple syrup and freshly ground cinnamon. It’s a winning combination with the burnt butter and acts as a perfect item to tie the menu together and an even better way of closing out the visit.”

“I had a bad experience with these guys where I had a hair in my chicken sandwich, I contacted them and they told me to contact the customer service and it seems their system is being kept in a closed loop where you can't get any where with their call , the irony the package says we put extra love in your order and forgot to write we put extra hair in your sandwich, never order again”

Tips for a Better Visit
Try Vinegar Fries. Add the vinegar fries if you enjoy sharp, salty flavours; a reviewer called them an especially good snack.
Check Portions. Review the portion and price before ordering, especially for children’s sides: one order had only four chicken strips.
Check Delivery. Inspect delivery orders promptly, since one customer received a cold burger and could not get a replacement directly from the restaurant.
Confirm Dine-In. If you plan to eat in, confirm dine-in availability first; one visitor found the outlet was takeaway-only for Deliveroo orders.
Add Notes. Include clear order notes when needed; one customer said the kitchen followed their requests successfully.

Common Concerns
Small Portions
Multiple reviews say the burgers and sides feel too small for their prices; one customer paid 54 dirhams for a notably small High Jam burger.
Inconsistent Quality
Recent reviews range from delicious burgers to dry, bland or mediocre ones, suggesting the experience can vary considerably.
Hygiene Concern
One visitor reported an extremely dirty floor and an employee cutting onions while wearing torn gloves.
Delivery Support
A customer received a cold burger and said the call centre would not arrange a replacement, directing them to Deliveroo.
Misleading Photos

The Bottom Line
High Joint Motor City is a burger spot in Motor City where you can order burgers, chicken sandwiches and sides through the food hall or delivery platforms. The High Jamz is the most repeatedly named choice, while the BBQ Chicken Burger, wagyu burger and vinegar fries also receive positive mentions. A vegetarian option, the High Leaf, appears in the reviews too.
The food is not entirely consistent. Some customers describe juicy, delicious burgers, soft buns and excellent fries; others received burgers they found dry, bland, poorly assembled or much smaller than the menu photos suggest. The clearest recurring caution is value: several reviewers felt the portions, including fries and mac-and-cheese balls, were too small for the price.
Service can be warm and attentive, particularly for dine-in and orders with notes, but other visits involved dismissive staff or slow handling. Delivery has its own risk: one burger arrived cold, and the restaurant’s call centre reportedly would not arrange a replacement. One visitor also raised serious cleanliness concerns after seeing a dirty floor and torn gloves in use.
Check the serving format, portion expectations and order condition before committing to a larger order.
