Le Palais Libanais is an authentic restaurant that serves traditional Lebanese recipes that are passed on from generation to generation. All of our key ingredients and menu items are made in house. We offer a variety of delicious succulent chicken and beef shawarma options with side dishes options and colorful garnishes, along with vegetarian platters of made in house falafels and a wide selection of BBQ skewers of ground beef (Kafta), marinated chicken breast (Taouk) and tender filet mignon beef grilled to perfection.
Ok guys, you seriously need to look after your website, it is very slow loading, very armature. Does not have proper information and is a nightmare to order from! Tried to even order from Uber Eats and it indicates we cant get it until 9pm and its 4:52pm. Well there goes over $100 out of your pocket and into another establishments. May try in the future to order.
I was staying in Gatineau and saw this place as we drove through town. The building was so nice and new I had to search it to return later. We did have n fact return but to the other - original location in town. I had my heart set on the new pretty restaurant which was closer to our destination anyway so we left to go to the location on Maloney. It was easy for me to choose as I took a mixed grill like the person before me. When I got the plate i swear it weighed 5 pounds! My daughter and I ate and ate and I had a snack and breakfast and there was still a little left. I wish this was in my town!!! Huge yes!! Beautiful little shop and even a private room for small gatherings. Thanks to the nice staff who were patient with us while I debated the entire menu!
Actually not bad. They also had real turnip (sliced thin) Chicken was moist and lotsa flava, would go again.
What can I say the food here is out of this world and they pile on the food that it takes 2 guys to close the box lol but seriously this place is clean and the staff are great to talk with as they build your plate..I certainly will be coming back I had the chicken plate
Ali the owner is a nice guy who takes the time to interact with his customers and takes time to deliver your request as you want them. Several locations and Maloney wast is by far the best. The food here is awesome 👌 they dress up like chefs 👩🍳 and at first, I thought it was a bit much. After tasting the food and getting some backstory, I found out that the owners brought the recipe back from Lebanon 🇱🇧 and the food is prepared with the utmost quality and precision to satisfy their guests. The value for the chef like experience is worth going the extra distance to enjoy real Shawarma. I live 40km away, and after eating here, I will definitely make it a day for the family's outing. Didn't have my phone during my meal, but the photo represents a clean and tasty impression.
It was the most amazing Lebanese meal during our Ottawa trip! We ordered grilled meat, fried cauliflower, tabouli, kibbeh fried and they gave us so many complimentary dishes like humus fattoush rice potato cubes and many more! They were very generous and we had lots of left over!! Great outdoor seating
Really loved their shawarma especially the meet. Price is not too bad, good service and good quality, everything tastes good and fresh. Sandwich could be warmer but okay. Only one thing to note, they don’t accept credit cards, only cash or debit. Great Lebanese experience, sure I will eat there again.
Clean, generous portions, and polite staff. The dining area is nice and clean, and the patio is a good size. The staff is dressed in a professional way and they offer polite service. Their plates are decent in size and fairly priced. The garlic and hummus are pretty good, but the salad dressing isn't very flavorful. Definitely a place to visit when you're in the area and are looking for a quick bite that'll hold you over for a long time.
Excellent food and service. Highly recommended
Very good food Exceptional quality/price
Poulet brochette awesome quantity hot and fresh . price is just 21$ without tax and so filling
Best shawarma in Gatineau Ottawa
Today, I wanted to eat shawarma when I left here, I was charged for a mixed Shawarma dish at $28 and a few cents ..I know that not even 3 km in Ottawa, I eat the same dish at 18 $ and a few cents why a difference of $10 for the same product Knowing that shawarma in Ottawa, I find it appetizing and with a better taste, - I also have a remark: the taste of beef has a weird taste.... And on the chicken are there black marks?
Fast and courteous service. Still so good
Always pleasant, the service is great The food is excellent
Still super good. Best value for money Super-fresh food / delicious. Friendly staff. Food
Very fast service! The food is delicious and the place is always clean.
I have been a customer for several years but this evening I experienced my first disappointment... There was practically nothing in the 3 sandwiches I bought. In my plate which is usually very full it was the same observation.
Best ever....and Ive tried MANY and everywhere!!!! Well done!!!
Lots of pros and no cons. -Great portions easily sharable 2 /3 per plate -delish and fresh everytime and I go often -loads of options ..my shout out is the beef plate they use real beef none of that donair stuff. -unique sauces to chose from for everyone my personal fave is harissa. -always clean dining area and lots of space even a patio in summer. Destroys every other shawarma place by flavor and quantity just great they deserve the success . Only downside is they are always busy so can wait long during lunch.
Great take out. Thank you.
The shawarma location in Gatineau. If its busy its good . This place was packed, fast service ... Generous portions. Food
The food was mid because the salad is a little soggy and the meat is extreamly dry especially the beef. I liked the fast service and the seating area.
Great food. A bit pricey but keep coming back because its one of the best in town.
I went there

Excellent, clean and good service :)
Incredible food and service!
I ordered one plate of chickeb ,, I will be honest it s huge and it was enough for me and my wife and my 2 little kids
Best Shawarma in town by far. The only place provide the exact Lebanese Shawarma taste. Staff are very welcoming. Food
Thus is, hands down, THE best shwarma place I have been to. The food is so delicious. I highly re recommend it.
I feel like Ive gone to eat with thieves. I ordered takeout and 3 items were missing that I paid for. This is the last time they will see me.
Great service, food and clean.
One of the best shawarma places I ve been two . Very clean restaurant and amazing tasting food .
So good, everything, including the food, the staff and the cleanliness!! We are lucky to have you in Gatineau!!
Very good discovery, we had a great time, the team is wonderful, the food is good and generous.
three good
Very good service, the portions are generous and the dishes delicious, definitely recommended, well done!!!
Delicious
I dont really make any reviews usually but Ive heard this place was good so gave it a try and I eat alot of shawarmas at different places and this place today was a real dissapointement the beef shawarma I got wasnt good at all honnestly. I almost threw it out but was hungry so had to eat the same. The meat was rubbery and hard, the cook put to much turnip and pickles in it so the balance of the shawarma was not it. It destroyed the taste of everything and didnt like the sauces in it cause he said ill do it the lebanesse way without any detailed got rushed to the cash so didnt see anything being done at the shawarma at all turn and the shawarma was cold right after being served and the salad didnt taste good at all very bland taste on both items. They gave me the salad first to rush me to the cash and afterwards take a thing to put the food on it without telling me at the start so couldnt see how the food was made i dont know not to professional should stay with the customer threw out everything till the cash and explain a bit more especially for new client.
Their meals are really good and the prices are very reasonable compared to big fast food chains.
A 25% off coupon that is marked order online can only be used at the location. I find this a really sad situation because we often order online. This kind of thing is called false advertising. Furthermore, we received it with our last online order and the delivery person didnt mention anything.
Well located and full of people.
A great team and always a great welcome
A must in Gatineau if you like Lebanese cuisine. Everything is delicious, the portions generous and the welcome very friendly. We go there almost every week. Only downside: the volume of the music
Best lebanese shawarma sandwich in ottawa-gatineau
interesting
By far the best, always tasty and generous!!! They certainly dont need my opinion, they already have this excellent reputation, but I want to do my part to thank them.
Excellent service with friendly staff. Tasty food and generous portions. Thank you ! Food
The food is very delicious, and the employees are very kind. Love it High recommend Food : 5/5
Best shawarma in the Gatineau Ottawa region. Very friendly service and great atmosphere.
Best shawarma in town
The shawarma is delicious and the portions for the plate are huge, very good, fresh food. Very good price with excellent service I definitely recommend
Perfect
The best shawarma I ever tried in Canada (and I have tasted several restaurants) in this place, I recommend the mixed shawarma served on plates, prices are accessible and the food is exquisite. They have friendly personnel and a good environment in this place. Vegetarian options: The food is mostly vegetarian plenty of taste. Dietary restrictions: There are different options of salads. Parking: I have never had problems to park.
Very good dish. served in French thank you Parking: Several parking lots along the building
Food is good but customer service aint it.
Great value, fresh ingredients, classic shawarma. Staff was super helpful and we enjoyed every bite
Amazing place, seriously the best shawarma Ive ever had. Always fresh!
Great food very nice staff!!
All the dishes are delicious and the people are very nice!
Each time there are items missing from my order. I was charged for the menu individually, which was a lot expensive. Almost double. Incompetent staff despite the reputation of this place.
I recently had the pleasure of having Le Palais Libanais cater my bridal shower, and I cannot rave enough about the experience! The food was absolutely delicious, with the juiciest chicken and meats I ve ever tasted. Each dish was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The service was equally amazing, the team was professional, attentive, and made sure everything went smoothly. All my guests were thoroughly impressed and kept commenting on how fantastic the food was. Thank you so much to Ali and his team! This event will be remembered! I highly recommend Le Palais Libanais to everyone looking for top-notch catering. They truly made my special day even more memorable! Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart!
The beef shawarma was dry and tasteless. I expected better for the price. All cash business so watch your change.
Good food, great people :)
Fast service and very good meal!
Since we have been in Outaouais it has been our Go to when we want a good shawarma. The prices are good for the quantity and quality. Wheelchair accessibility: Access ramp
Amazing service, great music and super friendly staff
Great service and food , the best Shawarmas in town
Amazing, so much food for a great price!
Best shawarma in the region
I came here today, the staff were so friendly. Very nice and relaxing vibe sitting outside in the tent area. Food quality was great. They have several different garlics, and I love garlic!
TL;DR: Institutional and it knows it. You know when you walk into a place and you can tell its been there forever? When I walked into Palais Libanais for the first time, there was a thick air of smoke - hopefully from the food. You look around and see people whove clearly been coming for years and theyre set in their ways. This is Shawarma-ville though! I could hope on the 50/5 and be knee deep in shawarma in 10 minutes or less! I ordered the mix plate all dressed and a falafel sandwich for good measure. The sandwich was expertly crafted. It didnt fall apart, it had a lot of falafel which I love but the flavours didnt sing together. It was kind of bland which, it turned out, was a theme. The plate was sizeable with a good amount and division of meats, rice, potatoes, and salad. Each thing kind of tastes like the others except the meats which were juicy and tender in their own ways. It wasnt just because everything is in a clump though... Every shawarma place does that - remember shawarma-ville - this was just okay. I was disappointed that at $24 a plate and $7.50 a sandwich, I didnt get more flavour. I would gladly have sacrificed quantity for quality. That said, the people were lovely! Everyone was friendly which you dont always get at a shawarma place. They seemed happy to be there doing what they do well and for that I was happy too. I probably wont be back but Im really glad I went.
I ordered the meat shawarma. He prepared two nice plates for me. The prices are affordable.
This is what you call shawarma ..
Simply amazing, they even put up with my terrible french. We were hungry, nothing else was open and found this gem of a place. Give them a try, you wont be disappointed. There was even a Lebanese guy in front of us raving it was the best he had outside of Lebanon.
I love the Lebanese palace! A kind owner who listens to his customers.. the employees are very kind and what can we say about the excellent food, delicious fresh..Johanne and Richard and his little family from Terrebonne! Until next time.
Really great food with really great people
It was just okay!! Parking: Lots of availability! Wheelchair accessibility: Easy accessibility!
Clean, and spacious! Good food at an affordable price!
Best Shawarma Ive ever eaten. The owner and staff treated me like family. The restaurant is clean and well decorated. Truly best restaurant!
Very good
Great place, wonderful service and delicious food!!!
Perfect
One of the best shawarma in gatineau. No need to say more.
It was very good. And they were very nice
What an exceptional experience. The service was incredibly warm and welcoming while the food was top notch. Not to mention the portion sizes...my wife and I split a chicken shawarma plate and were both stuffed. Highly recommend!
I didnt like the use of cloves in the meat but other than that everything is ok
Great place to eat
The best shawarmas and Lebanese dishes in Gatineau! Fresh meats, fresh vegetables. The plates are generous. You can eat there on site. The employees are nice, fast service. Terrace for good weather.
A little disappointed with my take out order of family chicken dish. Container half full, Dish not even full. Not enough food for 4 adults. Little salad, little dressing, only hummus and garlic sauce have regular portions. Sorry, but for the price, Im not going back there again.
Our shawarma place of choice! Always delicious and the service is wonderful :) they opened a second location!
The best in town, I recommend. What a great discovery The staff is really warm
Food and service are awesome. I always take my food to go. I dont like the atmosphere to eat in. But its only me. Many people eat there.
Best Shawarma in Ottawa-Gatineau region! Portions are very generous (see the picture), food is tasty, but best of all the service is incredinly warm and accomodating. Highly recommend support the kind folks working here :)
By far the best Shawarma place in Gatineau! Well done! Keep up the great work!
I used to like going to this place until I realized the food was overpriced and the service not good. It can be very slow and there have been several visits where the staff dont pay attention and mess up the order. The food is good, thats the only upside, but the long wait and poor service are bigger cons for me.
Great food! Amazing service! I d recommend this place to everyone!
The best shawarma in town!
Used their private room for a birthday and it was perfect. Great place and service
The best shawarma in town, period.
Very bad experience with this restaurant it was great last day I ate food from yesterday
Courteous staff. Remarkable cleanliness of the premises
The kitchen was perfect The staff who prepare and serve people were great The dishes were generous except that the cashier must know that the customer is king. Finally, thank you for these delicious and generous dishes. Parking: Next to the restaurant. Kid-friendliness: Yes, there are also dishes for children to choose from. Wheelchair accessibility: Yes
The best shawarma, hands down! We re so lucky to have Le Palais Libanais in town! Authentic Lebanese food, and simply delicious! Don t miss out on this place. It s a must!
Excellent shawarma et service
always amazing taste and service
The best shawarma meat in canada
Best place for Shawarma, friendly service. five stars.
The absolutely best Lebanese restaurant in Quebec, tried many from Rimouski to Val-dor. So fresh and tasty. Super clean with people who actually want to give you a great meal. Very much worth the detour. Make sure to try the different meats and sauces. Enjoy .
Absolutely love this shawarma place
Potatoes are delicious and the chicken shawarma
the owner ali was very nice very good service and the food is awesome Best place in town Food : 5/5
Very poor welcome, refused to serve the salad I ordered in the way I wanted it. The food was dry because it refused to put the sauce, despite offering to pay extra. Customer service is very unsatisfactory. I dont advise anyone to eat at this restaurant.
best in town for sure can take a bit to get served when its packed but definitely worth the wait
Top you top
30$ is not enough for them to deliver!!!! They have no shame and no honor!!!
A good chicken dish
We used to eat here frequently but havent gone back in a long time and wont go back either. Prices have gone up too much relative to the portions that are becoming smaller and smaller on the platters. The quality of the beef appears to have gone down as the last few times we got it, it was inedible. What was once great value and great portions is now just another overly expensive fast food place that has become stingy.
Its the best in the city of Gatineau exellent Parking: Large parking lot
I have just visited the Lebanese Palace in Hull. Best plate in town; unparalleled service. The icing on the sundae? Montassar who welcomes us so well and always serves us with a smile. A1 over the entire line.
I ate the chicken plate and everything was excellent! Large selection of desserts and drinks. Very fast service and nice atmosphere with music (which I imagine is Lebanese).
Vegetarian options: oui Food
Second year in a row coming to this place when visiting Gatineau, friendly staff, generous portion, fresh, good priced, what else do you need ?
some meat in the shawarma wouldnt hurt
By far the best Shwarma in Gatineau! Always great/fast service! Recommended dishes
best shawarma in town
Best shawarma in town. Thanks Aly
Marbrouk to a fantastic Lebanese family Resturant. The service and young chap was awesome. It was fantastic to speak Arabic .Your food made us all extremely Happy. Delicious and completely fresh. Shukran Samira Asad
Great place, brand new, dynamic, helpful team, food way too good, prices are excellent! The plates are huge! But again, the team is passionate and their recommendations are absolutely amazing! Vegetarian options: The falafels are excellent... The ?samosas? are delicious (with cheese, spinach) The omelette is incredible...
What happiness every time I eat at this place! Very good food and personalized service. Well done!
Best shawarmas in town, and the employees are super friendly!!
Best place in town to eat Lebanese cuisine! The service is impeccable, the employees are always in a good mood, the volume of the music is always a step higher than the other place, which gives a good atmosphere. I live in the countryside and we dont have this type of restaurant, every time I come, its impossible not to stop there!
Food is pretty good but I ordered the family plate that feeds 4-5 people. They kicked me out of the restaurant and told me Im not allowed to eat it there. What kind of restaurant does that to its customers? Secondly because I ordered the family platter they wouldnt give me spicy garlic without paying extra which makes no sense. If I ordered a normal sandwich or platter they would give me spicy garlic. Very disappointed with customer treatment and cheapness.
Ultra fast service and possibly one of the best
Congratulations on your new branch on Maloney, road Notre-Dame, very very clean Good and decent food
Very warm welcome by the staff who are super nice without exception, the food was very delicious and in terms of hygiene nothing to complain about I highly recommend
Palais Libanais is one of my favorite restaurants for their Chicken Plates. If anyone has had Shawarma Palace in Ottawa, then you can expect the same portion size (very ample), quality, and taste. Delicious! My favorites are the Chicken or Mixed (Chicken and Beef) Plates. Each come with humus, rice (white and/or yellow), fried seasoned potatoes, fatoush salad, garlic sauce, and 2 pita breads. The portion size will usually feed myself and my wife, but a man with a huge appetite might be able to finish it, but I cant finish one on my own. If you get the beef, ask for it lebanese style and they grill it with a very flavourful parsley mixture that really takes the taste up a notch. And adding tahini sauce to the beef or chicken can be tasty too, if you are a fan. There are quite a few other options. Kebabs you have to wait a while for simce the meat isnt already cooking on the rotisserie like the chicken and beef shawarma. Shawarma sandwiches are also very tasty. They also have oil or creamy salad dressing for the fatoush salad. Try them both out, and decide which you like best. I prefer the creamy one, but both are always good. Also be sure to load out with all the toppings. The pickled turnips are a must, even if you arent a fan of turnips. Trust me, the shawarma flavour profile goes up to 11 with turnips and pickles added to the mix. Ive eaten at at least 30-40 different Shawarma restaurants in Canada and abroad, and Palais Libanais is in my top 3 favorites. Enjoy!
Would never go there again. Cant say that I wouldnt eat there again, because I couldnt even eat my food and they refused to comp. Very disappointing experience. Bathrooms and dining area are dingy. ******** I will never go to this restaurant again. I cant say I would never eat at this establishment again because I couldnt even eat my food and they refused to take care of me. Very disappointing experience. The bathrooms and dining room are dirty.
Excellent, fresh and pleasant and competent staff
Very friendly staff. Great place for a shawarma or a plate the portions are huge and the have amazing garlic sauce. Definitely a good place to go if your craving a shawarma!
Very very disappointed with the taste of the meats...I dont understand why people are so addicted to it...On Gréber next to the Subway, there are some extraordinarily GOOD donairs, why have you tried this Lebanese Palace? The person with me thought we were going to have a good time already and she thought that was WHERE I normally went.. NOPE error! Were not going back there...
My favorite Lebanese restaurant
The service is always impeccable, he is kind and welcoming and gives excellent service, best shawarma in town
The best food in Gatineau. Been eating here since it opened. They recently started charging extras for everything so im taking 1 star away. Price is a bit more expensive than other shawarma.
Amazing!!!!!
Very good restaurant, good meal! Very good value for money! Beautiful atmosphere! Smiles and kindness, everything was delicious . Well done to the owner and his team
First time very satisfied I recommend it I will return it for sure Parking: Lots of room
Best shawarma in Gatineau!
Always a great place to eat. This time we tried the family platter. What a success. To make for big parties. Plus super fast service.
