What Residents say about Discovery Gardens

4.3
Sanchit M.

I go to Discovery Gardens few times a month at least. I like it for the food and the chill atmosphere. One thing I really like is that there are affordable restaurants. You can find Indian, Pakistani, Arabic and Asian food and most places are not too expensive. Since the parking was made paid, you can also easily find parking spots, and it is all very safe also. The area feels fun. Relaxed. There are small shops, grocery stores and restaurant everywhere. It’s also easy to get to because of the Gardens Metro Station, which I personally use. Depending on where you are going, the Discovery Gardens metro station might be a better choice. Overall Discovery Gardens is a place to visit if you want good food that won’t break the bank and a casual neighborhood feel.

I lived here for a few months and loved the greenery, colorful buildings, and direct access to metro stations; The Gardens, Discovery Gardens, and Al Furjan metro stations are all within walking distance depending on which cluster you're in. However, the main downside is that the area is a bit run down in some places. Maintenance and hygiene could be improved in some buildings, and there's no underground nor designated parking, which is inconvenient in the summer.
