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!

Second visit. Food is fresh and tastes ok, but chicken is not as crispy as other places I tried.Also, prices are not clearly indicated anywhere so it’s mainly a verbal menu upon request, which doesn’t really leave you time to decide. 3 size of plates are available and what you see here is the biggest one.

Just dropped in on my way home because I needed hummus to serve tonight for my friends. Very friendly guy who offered a drizzle of olive oil and hot sauce. The hummus was very creamy, smooth, and delicious! I will be back in the near future to try some of their plates! Bonus: On departure, he said "Nice to see you today."

I don't leave reviews unprompted often, but this deserves one. This is one of the best shawarmas I've had in a very long time, and I've had hundreds of them around the Ottawa region. The chicken was juicy, the sauces were very well balanced and the veggies were fresh making the shawarma a perfect 10/10. Highly recommend and will definitely be back! The gentleman was very kind and friendly as well which was the cherry on top.

This Shawarma is the best in Ottawa / Gatineau. The food is always super fresh, they use white meat for the chicken. The food leaves you wanting more. The price is excellent as well. I can get a chicken plate with a drink for $17 , where other places are charging over 22$ and the food is bad. Good job guy!
