What to Avoid (5)

Food 4

Chicken tikka sandwich Net −1

“It says "Authentic Lebanse food" but I don't think an "authentic" Lebanese restaurant would be selling a chicken tikka sandwich ; (I mean this with all due respect) if you are going to sell such items I think you should remove the authentic Lebanese food on your packaging. False advertising.”
Fattoush salad Net −1

“Ordered vegetarian pizza and fattoush salad. Salad was really fresh but it was a lot more sour. By the time I finished it my teeth started getting acidic.”
Lebanese tawouk Net −1

“I ordered Lebanese tawouk via talabat and it came WITHOUT CHICKEN. This is honestly very concerning especially that it took 40 minutes to be delivered so I wonder what the chef was doing in the kitchen exactly? Disappointed and I won’t order again”
Steak sandwiches Net −1

“I ordered 5 steak sandwiches for my office and they came with so little filling "steak" and this is not the usual from other branches”

Drinks 1

Cappuccino Net −1

“I asked for cappuccino and they suggested latte because the foam machine isn’t working well.”

The Bottom Line

On The Wood - DIP is a Lebanese-Italian restaurant in Dubai Investment Park, with enough variety for both a mezze meal and a casual pizza or pasta order. The reviews are especially useful for choosing dishes: spicy hummus and fattoush are praised, the chipotle falafel wrap comes in a generous portion, and the baker lamb rice is described as the standout. Manakish, grills and vine leaves also feature prominently.

Dine-in feedback is generally stronger than delivery feedback. Customers describe the restaurant as clean, cosy and relaxed, with one reviewer using a laptop there to finish work. Other visits mention quick service and fresh food, while the team is often described as welcoming and attentive.

It is also reported to be less crowded, which may suit an unhurried meal. Ordering from home is the main caution. Reviews mention two-hour waits, orders not being started when checked, cold food and a Lebanese tawouk arriving without chicken.

Manakish has also arrived folded. Check the current menu before ordering—the falafel platter listed on Google Maps was no longer available—and consider using an app rather than phoning. Prices receive mixed comments: some choices are considered affordable, while fresh juices and certain dishes are seen as expensive for Dubai Investment Park.
