The Good Stuff
Chicken wings
Chicken wings are repeatedly singled out, with one reviewer praising the generous six-piece serving format.
Charlie Chan
Charlie Chan pasta is a standout for several customers, including one who found it similar to the Philippine version.
Large pizza
The 18-inch pizza produces notably large slices, described as bigger than a hand.
Street décor
The Al Barsha branch has graffiti-style wall decoration and a street-inspired atmosphere.
Friendly service
Several reviews describe attentive service and quick handling of customer concerns.
Tips for a Better Visit
Avoid closing. Avoid ordering lasagna right before closing; one reviewer linked a sour, undercooked portion to a last-minute order.
Check delivery. Inspect delivery orders on arrival, since reviews mention incomplete items, open boxes and raw dough.
Ask ingredients. If you have a seafood allergy, confirm the pasta ingredients carefully: one order arrived with shrimp despite an allergy warning.
Compare ordering. Check the in-store price before ordering online; one customer said visiting the shop was cheaper.
Expect limited seating. For dine-in, plan around the small number of tables; an earlier review found the wait without a reservation shorter than expected.

The Bottom Line
Yellow Cab Pizza Co. in Al Barsha is a New York City-style pizza spot where you can order thin-crust pizza, pasta and chicken wings. The strongest review-backed picks are Charlie Chan pasta, chicken wings, chicken BBQ pizza and the 18-inch New York pizza, whose slices one customer described as bigger than a hand.
The food has a loyal following, especially among customers familiar with the Philippines branch. Charlie Chan is praised as tasting like the Philippine version, while the thin crust works well with chili flakes. The graffiti-covered walls give the compact restaurant a street-style feel, and several diners mention friendly, attentive service.
There is a real consistency caveat. Reviews report raw pizza dough, undercooked or sour lasagna, bloody wings, greasy food and pasta that missed the mark. Delivery feedback includes incomplete items, open packaging, cold pizza and a one-hour wait, so check the order when it arrives.
If you have a seafood allergy, confirm ingredients directly: one customer says shrimp appeared in a pasta order despite an allergy warning. Dine-in space is limited and one review noted the branch is not wheelchair accessible. One customer also reported paying AED18 for a milkshake and finding it overpriced.
