Many shoppers find everyday groceries cheaper than at nearby supermarkets, with one reviewer buying a week’s groceries for under 100 AED.
Fresh orange juice is the clearest standout product mentioned in the reviews.
The store has a useful collection of bulk products for shoppers stocking up.
VIVA’s range leans heavily on its own products rather than familiar major brands.
Some shoppers enjoy finding international products alongside the affordable grocery range.
Household products, including laundry items, are described as particularly low-priced.
Inspect produce. Check vegetables and fruit carefully before paying, especially tomatoes and any item that looks soft or marked.
Check chillers. Inspect chilled items such as mozzarella for mould before buying.
Plan the trolley. If you have several heavy items or a young child with you, ask about the trolley deposit before checkout.
Verify delivery. For Talabat or Noon orders, compare the delivered items and invoice promptly and keep the app complaint record.
Check stock. Confirm essentials are available before relying on the shop; some products have reportedly stayed out of stock for weeks.

Amica is recommended for its ketchup and sour cream chip flavours, though the review says it is often out of stock.
Parsley and coriander are available, although one review notes a higher bunch price than at another supermarket.
Mozzarella is specifically mentioned as a chilled item worth checking for mould before purchase.
Plums and green grapes are among the few fruit items one reviewer viewed favourably.
Berries, including blueberries, are mentioned as attractively priced produce.
Reviews repeatedly describe only one cashier operating, creating long waits even when multiple counters exist.
Fruit and vegetable quality is inconsistent, with reports of moldy vegetables and disappointing tomatoes.
Parking can be difficult around the branch, with reviewers describing building parking as a nightmare or unavailable.
Customers have reported being stopped from taking a trolley to the car unless they leave a deposit or return it immediately.
Online orders have included missing items and unresolved refund or billing complaints on Talabat and Noon.
These are customer-reported mentions, not a current price list. Prices may have changed.

The Bottom Line
VIVA Supermarket in Dubai Silicon Oasis is geared towards routine grocery shopping rather than a full hypermarket run. The main draw is value: shoppers mention affordable basics, bulk products, dairy and frozen items, household goods, and a week’s groceries costing less than 100 AED in one account. Its range is largely made up of VIVA’s own products, with some international items to try.
There are a few specific bright spots. Fresh orange juice is called the store’s “single best thing”, while Amica chips—especially ketchup and sour cream—gets a personal recommendation, although it is often out of stock. Green grapes and plums have also received better comments than the wider produce section.
The trade-off is consistency. Several reviews criticise the fruit and vegetables, including moldy or spoiled vegetables and poor tomatoes. Chilled goods deserve a quick inspection too: one reviewer advised checking mozzarella for mould.
Variety is narrower than at larger supermarkets, and essentials can remain unavailable for weeks. Allow extra time at checkout; reviews repeatedly describe only one cashier operating. Parking is also disputed, with some shoppers reporting no availability.
If you order through Talabat or Noon, check the contents and bill carefully. For a trolley-heavy shop, ask about the deposit or return policy before loading up.
