What to Eat at YELLOW CAB Pizza co. 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 YELLOW CAB Pizza co., 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 YELLOW CAB Pizza co., ranked by positive reviews minus negative reviews. Zero-score items have no net positive feedback; their labels distinguish neutral-only from mixed feedback.

“Ordered Charlie Chan and 12” New York Pizza. . I wished they had another branch in Abu dhabi. . 🥺 It reminds me of my College days. . I just hope they find way in preserving the pizza’s temp upon delivery. By the time it was received- the pizza is cold already. However, it still taste great. If you crave of bbq sauce with mushroom and nuts!- Charli Chan is the answer.. Might taste weird for others because of its sweet,spicy and saltiness but this is one of a kind pasta🤩..”

Tips for a Better Visit
Check Status. Verify the branch is operating before travelling, since a 2021 reviewer found it closed and the listing had not been updated.
Eat Fresh. Dine in or collect if possible: reviews say delivery can take a long time and pizza may arrive cold.
Allow Time. If ordering online, build in extra time; one Talabat order remained marked as preparing for three hours.
Use Nearby Parking. Parking can be difficult, so reviewers suggest using the parking at Burjuman Mall or the nearby paid lot.
Try Charlie Chan. For a sweet-spicy combination with BBQ sauce, mushroom and nuts, consider the Charlie Chan pasta.
Check Crust. Confirm the crust and sauce when ordering through an app, after one meal arrived with the wrong crust and only sauce.

The Bottom Line
YELLOW CAB Pizza co. gives you more than pizza: reviews mention four-cheese and 12-inch New York Pizza options alongside pasta, lasagna, garlic bread and chicken meals. Its most distinctive named dish is Charlie Chan, a pasta built around BBQ sauce, mushroom and nuts.
The combination is sweet, spicy and salty, so it will suit adventurous tastes more than anyone looking for a classic sauce. Portions can be generous. One group said the pasta in a pizza, pasta and chicken meal was enough for three people to share, while another found the smallest size substantial.
The location has also been useful for quick access, with reviews placing it near Burjuman Metro exit 2 and opposite Burjuman Mall. Parking is available nearby, although one reviewer found it easier to use Burjuman Mall parking. Delivery is the main caution.
Customers describe waits ranging from 30 minutes to three hours, with several pizzas arriving cold or hard; one Careem order also arrived with the wrong crust and missing items. Vegetarian choice is described as limited. Finally, check that the branch is currently open before making the trip, since older reviewers reported an unupdated closed listing.
