    I come here like 3 times a week as i work near by and i do order soup and salad most of the time. They have 2 kinds of soup, tomato soup is served everyday and the 2nd one varies from day to day (leak, carrots, zucchini, lentil .. etc)I pictured below the potato soup and its very good and tasty. I tried all salad option but my favourite is reef & beef salad (pictured below). Great quality food and quickly served. Love this place, a friendly smiley face change your mood :-)

    My best resturant in town for pasta and pizza . I am always coming back almost every month . I like the food the services . When you enter the restaurant they gives you a card you can use for your orders Pizza and salad section . Another one for pasta and the other one for juice and sweets each time they ask you to use the card and in the end you can pay the cashier by giving the. The card to check the balance . What is my favorite pasta ;-) it’s penne pasta with mix chicken and chimps with mix white and red sauce and a bit of garlic and cheese . You can ask what you would like to have and they will cook it in front of you . Parking in the basement is enough and each access . Also it’s wheelchair friendly . They have menus as well . Self service .

    You should be ASHAMED of charge 72 QR (almost 20usd) for this lasagna. Minuscule size. Looks like microwaved over heated and arrived all dry. DONT ORDER DELIVERY FROM THIS PLACE. I highly don’t recommend. Now I will have to order more food since this is enough for feed a kid. Theres literally no difference from the lasagna you can buy on carrefour that costs 20qr.

    Always a good choice for solid food at reasonable prices. This is a self serve place so do not expect table service. If you order too much, they provide boxes so you can take it home.

    Unfortunately we didn't like the food at all.. We order handme pasta Chicken Alfredo and Calzone pizza.. Pasta was without taste and it's overloaded with water of white sos, until pizza is overloaded with a black pepper and needed to be backed a little bit more longer. From the other side the coffees cappuccino and double espresso are perfectly good, one of my best place for coffee in Doha.

    Was a bit crowded during World cup. So the service not as quick. The pasta is fine and berry shake was refreshing..

    Quite delicious risotto and pizza, but not a place to go if you are on a budget.

    I tried classic spaghetti bolognese, was delicious. Basically it's self service, so can't say much about service.

    Used to love this place for a quick lunch but quality of food has gone down since Covid. Seafood pasta had no seafood in it. Literally 2 tiny shrimps....2.

    The ordering system isn't really a good idea. The customer service and staff wasn't very welcoming espescially for us who went here for the first time. No offense, but the food wasn't worth the price we paid. There's more better italian restaurant that provides good food, good service and definitely worh the money. Definitely not going back.

    Good italian resturant but I felt that other branches in different countries make a tastier food than this one. But overall it is clean the staff are friendly. You can enjoy and set outside and one of the servers will call you once the food is ready. I had Pesto Pasta and in another day pasta with tomato sauce along with a small trimasu. I would rate the resturant 3 stars because there is nothing really special and i did not extremely enjoy the pastas.

  • 3/5 Afthab Bin A. 6 months ago on Google
    Lovely place to sit and relax, a perfect spot for authentic Italian food. It’s very clean, hygienic, and features a friendly live food station. The ambiance, with both outdoor and indoor seating, adds to the dining experience. We tried the Chicken Alfredo, which was truly delicious, and the Verdure pizza with chicken, as well as the Lemon chicken skewer, were also enjoyable. However, the Penne Arrabiata pasta was average, tasting somewhat like flavored tomato paste. The staff is very friendly. However, Prices are a bit high for the food’s quality. Worth Trying!

  • 3/5 Yahia A. 5 months ago on Google
    The pizza was great but the pasta was average and what I didn’t like the most is how uncomfortable the tables are and inconvenient that affects the whole experience

  • 5/5 Paul F. 4 months ago on Google
    I've been a customer of Vapiano for more than 12 years, and throughout the years the restaurant kept high levels in food quality, taste, and cleanliness. I highly recommend it.

  • 4/5 Tems A. 3 months ago on Google New
    We dined at Vapiano again today, opting for our favorite dishes, Pasta Camborana and BBQ Chicken Pizza. Unfortunately, there are fewer Vapiano locations in Germany since the insolvency. Here in Doha, like everywhere else, it’s possible to enjoy halal meals, adding an interesting aspect. It provides a welcome change from the various local oriental cuisines. If you prefer a quieter dining experience, it’s a good choice; it wasn’t too crowded on both occasions. However, it’s disappointing that there are no dedicated restrooms or sanitary facilities, including handwashing facilities before or after the meal. That’s the only drawback worth mentioning.

  • 1/5 Halyna S. 1 year ago on Google
    My recent pizza experience in Doha was extremely disappointing. The pizza was dry and lacked any discernible flavor. The chicken option was especially unpleasant due to the low-quality BBQ sauce used. The cheese had no taste, and the crust was akin to cardboard. Despite charging premium prices, the restaurant clearly opted for the cheapest ingredients available, making it a poor value. The bruschetta also lacked taste, despite Qatar's reputation for producing delicious tomatoes. Overall, I would not recommend this restaurant based on my underwhelming experience.

    I was disappointed when I visited this branch. Usually vapiano is one of my favorite Italian restaurants and I was excited to eat here. The seating area was not comfortable at all although I changed our table 3 times to feel more comfortable while waiting our order to be ready. One of the tables had Gummies attached to the table from down!! The Pizza were good and the risotto were also okay. For the other pasta it were tasteless. The presentation of the food were not to be mentioned nothing so especial. The staff are nice . It’s self serving restaurant, am not sure if this is there new policy for vapiano or only here.

  • 2/5 Joel C. 1 year ago on Google
    Food quality at this outlet is a bit of a letdown considering Vapiano in other locations typically offers above the run of the mill type pasta. Had the tomato soup, arrabiatta and creme de fungi. Soup tasted like it came out of a can and microwaved. Pasta’s presentation wasn’t much to shout about and the taste was forgettable.

  • 2/5 Sue P. 1 year ago on Google
    Food is not as delicious as the other other branch. Ordered crème de funghi pasta, Food portion is smaller as well - less chicken and mushrooms. The cook is also not very friendly.

    This is my arabita pasta was so plain not recommended Price : 48 Qtr

  • 3/5 Waleed B. 1 year ago on Google
    Exceptional Pizza if your looking for a nice & light pie. For me personally the tomato sauce is nothing special but I like the ingredients they had for the Vegetarian Pizza & it was clean & fresh. I also got the Primavera Salad, its defenitely a big portion filled with greens which I liked alot. Only thing I would ask them is to take it easy on the salad dressing or replace it with house balsamic dressing. Good stuff 👌🏻

  • 2/5 Hatem A. 1 year ago on Google
