The story
Pizza Baby in Dubai’s Business Bay carries a near-perfect 4.8-star rating, but the sole creator review on ReTubeIt paints a far less flattering picture. Italian pizza maker Giovanni Fois calls the restaurant a “disappointment,” specifically targeting the Pizza con Tartufo. He argues the truffle pizza is “not pizza at all,” describing the dough as “like a piadina” and concluding it is “not worth the price.”
Fois’s take is the only critical voice represented here, so diners should weigh that against the venue’s otherwise stellar aggregate score. For purists seeking a traditional Neapolitan-style base, his warning about the thin, flatbread-like crust is worth heeding. Whether Pizza Baby’s high rating reflects a broader consensus or a narrower sampling remains unclear, but Fois’s verdict is unambiguous: at this price point, the truffle pizza fails to deliver.

“This is not a pizza. The dough is like a piadina, it's airy and has no substance. It's like when you overcook a corn tortilla. They shouldn't call this pizza, especially not Italian pizza.”
