What to Avoid (2)

Food 2

  1. Four cheese pizza Net −1
    “today I ordered delivery through talabat, when I opened it I didn't understand why there was such a smell, I saw this piece of onion, and it ruined the whole impression, I don't like onions and I don't understand since when they put it in four cheese pizza, it ruined the whole impression, talabat didn't react in any way, I hope they will take measures here”
  2. Vegan pizza Net −1
    “They put pesto on a vegan pizza. After calling to inquire, which took 10mins, turns out the pesto contains cheese. So who puts that on a vegan pizza? I order vegan because am allergic to dairy. If I had trusted it to be vegan I would end up in the hospital. Tried telling them on the phone and they don't seem to understand”

The Bottom Line

Pizza Di Rocco Motor City is an Italian pizzeria in Motor City where the main draw is pizza, with pasta and vegan choices for anyone who wants something beyond the usual slice. Reviews repeatedly point to the BBQ brisket pizza, while the thin, crispy crust and fresh toppings also earn praise. Fattoria, truffle, Frutti di Mare and Pollo picante are other named options worth noting.

Dine-in has a relaxed feel, with indoor and outdoor seating, and families have found the portions generous enough for children and adults. Some guests received complimentary bread with pesto, Parmesan and olive oil, and one table enjoyed complimentary dessert. Service is a consistent strength: reviews describe the team as welcoming, attentive and knowledgeable about the menu.

If you are sharing, ask about splitting a pizza into two flavours; one group turned two pizzas into four combinations. There are a few practical cautions. The dining room has been called loud, and one review raised indoor air-circulation concerns.

Delivery was excellent for some customers but one order arrived dry, burned and salty. Most importantly, vegan diners—and especially anyone with a dairy allergy—should check the pesto ingredients, as a customer found cheese in the pesto served on a vegan pizza. Prices were described as reasonable, and the business also lists a weekday AED 49 lunch, though that price comes from the restaurant rather than a customer review.
