Ottawa is the shawarma capital of the world. With so many options, we can make it easy: the shawarma palace is the best! Often a line-up at anytime of day or night, but it moves quickly.

Excellent mexican inspired cuisine, a real treat. Casual atmosphere with bar-style service. Always busy! Go late after 8 pm otherwise be prepared to wait. Food is worth the wait and staff make it easy by taking your name and cell number and texting you when they have a table available. Meanwhile you can have a drink across the street. They have a take-out window but it is not much faster. Not budget friendly.

A local favourite. Delicious curries. Gotta try the five-start beef or fried tofu. They ill make it really spicy, if you can handle it. The Ice Kachang is a wonderful, light summer dessert to follow the rich and intense flavors of the meal. Good prices and very friendly service.
