What to Eat at The Sandwich Factory 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 The Sandwich Factory, 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.

Chicken ranch & jalapeno pizza Net +1
“Ordered a "Chicken Ranch & Jalapeno" pizza and I guess me and my family by far, had the Best Pizza in UAE. I really mean it!!! Loved the "Perfection" of how it was prepared. The way the toppings were spread all over it, it feels like as if they scaled every inch of pizza and not just made it, rather decorated it with toppings 🙂”

Tips for a Better Visit
Check Ingredients. If ordering vegetarian, confirm the burger ingredients before paying; a reviewer later said the restaurant corrected the mix-up.
Confirm Orders. For delivery or pickup, monitor messages and confirm the collection time, since one repeat customer reported missed messages.
Ask About Fatayer. Check fatayer availability before ordering rather than assuming it is in stock, as repeated attempts reportedly found it unavailable.
Allow Extra Time. Build in some waiting time during busy visits; one customer waited more than 20 minutes despite no queue ahead.

Inconsistent Waits

A vegetarian customer received a mixed veggie-and-chicken burger because the menu did not clearly identify the ingredients.
Mixed Pastry Feedback
One review alleges food was packed after falling on the floor, while another found the hotdog pastry’s dough hard.
Uneven Sweets

The Bottom Line
The Sandwich Factory in Warsan is a bakery-restaurant with a broad Lebanese-leaning menu, but manakish and pizza are the clearest reasons to visit. Customers specifically mention the traditional-tasting zaatar mankouche, the Chicken Ranch & Jalapeno pizza, and a truffle sandwich made with the restaurant’s own ingredients. Crepes, burgers and cake slices add variety if you are ordering for a group.
Prices are repeatedly described as affordable, and one review puts a margarita pizza at 30 AED. The restaurant is small and has been described as clean, with outdoor seating for coffee in the afternoon. Delivery customers report good food, freshness and consistent quality, although pickup messages and timing have occasionally caused problems.
The feedback is not completely even. Some diners reported waits of more than 20 minutes, delayed dishes or poor service, and fatayer was said to be repeatedly unavailable. If you are vegetarian, confirm the burger ingredients clearly: one customer received chicken mixed into a supposedly vegetarian burger, though a later visit reportedly produced the correct version.
Pastry and cake feedback also varies, so manakish or pizza may be the safer first order.
