Middle Eastern Restaurants near Gloucester, ON

“BEST FALAFEL IN OTTAWA !!! This restaurant makes fresh hot falafel on the spot once you order. Unlike many other restaurants they just make a bunch and serve them cold. They also have the authentic fresh Arabic bread and the best toppings. Highly recommend their Qudsiya it was extremely rich and creamy just like how it should be. Thank you Ottawa Falafel House for the amazing experience ??????“

“انصح به وبشدة مطعم ممتاز وباعلى المقاييس وبشوشين ويرحبون بالزبائن بحرارة I highly recommend it, an excellent restaurant with the highest standards, and they welcome customers warmly“

“I couldn't give enough stars for this place. My bf and I have been there quite a few times since opening, his son loves it there too. Services is outstanding, food is incredible and the plates are humungous!!! The first time going we were greeted by the lovely Abraham. Super nice guy, and remembered our faces the second time we went back and always takes time to ask how we've been and ask where is the boy if he is not present. The food is so fresh, love is put into every item they make and I couldn't say enough good things. I am so happy they are a new business that is thriving. They know I'll be back.LOVE THIS PLACE!!!! <3“

“Picked up a chicken family platter today to try this place. First, I was shocked by the price $75 but more importantly, the platter was two thirds full of potatoes (we asked for potatoes instead of rice) and barely enough chicken to feed four adults including two women at lunchtime. Any other place, we typically get two meals for 4 people with a family platter for $62. Very disappointed and while the vege display was nice, it is not worth the price. This is a first and last for our family.“

“I love love this place! The staff is so friendly :) I love the man and woman who own this place - they are there every day!Now, for the food. Not a thing to complain about. The shawarma meat is 5/5 delicious, their potatoes are so good, never dry, always good. The garlic sauce and creamy and too pungent. The spicy sauce is good too (it’s orange).Def go here. Did I mention the shawarmas are only 8$??? OG PRICES MILLENIAL FRIENDS :D“

“Amazing Pizza“

“recommend visiting Bab Al-Yemen because its food is delicious and its prices are reasonable compared to others“

“Just tried their Shawarma Salad today Best in Ottawa. They recently started serving Shawarma was eating their Falafel from while never put review. I tried alot of Shawarms like Shawarma Palace ,Laheeb, King Shawarma, Yalla Yalla, Ottawa Falafel house. This is the best out of all of them.“

“Amazing food, 10/10 experience. The guy working the shawarma station is very patient and explained everything to me in great detail when I wasn’t sure what to order. The beef shawarma is very tasty and flavorful. The garlic potatoes are cooked perfectly and were even better with paired with the garlic sauce. I would 1000% be coming back with family and friends knowing they would enjoy the food and the atmosphere like me.“

“My 9 year old just said to me, “I’m so excited to go to Mona’s because Mona’s is the best food I’ve ever had!”“

“Highly recommended best kebob in ottawa smell test like kebob not like other junks.“

“EDIT: after seeing my review they contacted me and brought a brand new salad. they had mentioned that they had a new employee learning. just based on this situation I would definetly go back for the great customer service... got a shawarma salad from there and half the container was filled with liquid. I would suggest getting sauce on the side. still had a good taste, just to wet“

“La Joie Shawarma is an absolute gem in the area! I've tried several shawarma spots in the area, but none compare to the incredible experience I had here. The owners are genuinely kind and caring, making every visit feel like a warm welcome.Even during busy times, waiting in line is a breeze because the deliciousness that awaits is beyond worth it! And let me tell you about their spicy garlic option—it's a game-changer! I'm usually not one to go for the extra kick, but trust me, their spicy garlic sauce is a must-try!My go-to order is the Large Mix Trio, and it never disappoints. The beef and chicken are bursting with flavor, the veggies are always fresh, and the potatoes are perfectly cooked—never greasy, always satisfying.If you're in the area, La Joie Shawarma is a must-visit. You won't regret it!“

“Without any courtesy, it is rare for me to write a comment, and my account bears witness, but it is one of the most delicious meat kebab I have eaten in Canada, and from Top 5. In my life, a great discovery. Their food, beautiful service, and their creativity deserve it. I promised them a comment a while ago, and now I remember, they deserve it. Hopefully, I will have a visit soon.“

“We had build a bowl and ordered the cauliflower which we picked out our own bases, toppings and sauces. We both loved it and highly recommend this place. Excellent service and we will definitely be going back.“

“I felt like home, welcoming was warm and really friendly.The soup was my favourite, like medicine as what we say in my home country. The rest of the food was delicious and well served. The art around made us feel special, with details and organized art all over the placeAbsolutely amazing and recommend“

“Not only was the food great, it was filling and priced well. I enjoyed the employees beyond most places I have ever been to, kudos on being such a charming group of people.We were able to sit and visit over lunch, and linger for a good amount of time, which is one of my favorite things to do, so I thank you very much Garlic King!Dietary restrictions: Yay! They offer gluten-free and dairy-free options, and have them separated for zero cross contamination.“

“Sometimes you forget to put up a review because you get very busy but I am aware that they do help small business so this is mine. We have lived on Arch st. since 2009 and are going to move in the spring this restaurant has been our go to as long as we've been here the food is always amazingly fresh the portions crazy big when ordering the family meals we always had enough left overs to enjoy the next day. I will very much miss being down the street. I'm sure even though I won't be as close I will sneak back from time to time. Thanks for all you do in our community and I wish this restaurant all the very best in 2024!!!!♥️“

“This is a fantastic place to get delicious fresh food at a great price. It is my favourite lunch spot, perfectly filling. Their zaatar and veggie flatbreads are suitable for vegans as well so there are options for everyone. Really though, the best part of going here is the family that owns the restaurant. They are amazing people and so kind and generous. A delight to talk to. I have also never had food from here I didn’t love. If you are in the area I would definitely recommend stopping by to try their yummy food. Good for a meal or a snack!“
