The best shawarma in Ottawa. Try our famous Chicken Fattoush Salad. Orleans shawarma delivery & takeout.
As a Lebanese who has a PhD in Shawarma, The King Shawarma is as good as it gets. The chicken/beef is tasty, healthy and comes in good portions. The veggies are very fresh and overall makes the sandwich and platter taste like my mother made it at home. Highly recommend this local family owned business. Adam is the man!!
this place was so good, it tasted delicious, and for $25 approximately it was a huge portion! definitely worth it.
My friend from the old Marroush shawarma shop on Elgin is now here at the king Shawarma. He makes the best Shawarma! For everyone that knows Mustafa or Marroush Shawarma. Come here. I had a Shawarma here and it was amazing!!!!
Absolute delicious shawarma. The first bite taste like heaven and the beef is super super yummy. The workers was mad chill cracking jokes at everyone and overall making the environment very nice. The menu has a lot of good choices including poutine, plates, and alot of good offers but I would recommend the beef sandwich. Definitely the best shawarma place in Ottawa must come the food never gets old.
I recently visited The King Shawarma and had an amazing experience! The shawarma was absolutely delicious, with perfectly seasoned meat and fresh, crisp vegetables. The chicken salad was also a standout, with tender, juicy chicken pieces and a delightful mix of greens and toppings. The portions were generous, and the flavors were authentic and rich. The staff was friendly and attentive, making the dining experience even more enjoyable. The ambiance was cozy and inviting, perfect for a relaxing meal. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a fantastic shawarma and chicken salad experience. I can't wait to go back!
For the past 5 years King Shawarma has been our go-to for Lebanese Food. My husband enjoys the chicken sandwich. He says it's really tasty and jam-packed with chicken! My favourite is the Chicken Salad. It’s not only delicious, it has heaps of sliced chicken. The overall serving is huge! What’s more, they offer to top it up with tomatoes, turnips, hot peppers, pickles, etc., etc. To which, I usually answer, yes! I do ask for extra garlic sauce for both the sandwich and the salad. I'm never been charged for it or the added ingredients. The owner, his sons and staff are really quite pleasant. And, should Adam be available, I'll ask him to make my salad. And, he does! I have eaten food from many take-outs in Orleans and around the city. Many are very, very good. But for us, The King Shawarma has been consistently the best. I highly recommend them.
Very friendly, not creepy, and chicken is juicy! My go to place in Ottawa for shawarma. I can't say I've had the best experiences at shawarma places in general with the creepy jokes, comments, and forced conversation - but this place has been great to me! Friendly in a non-creepy way. I find the portions are very general and the food is fresh. The prices are reasonable. I assumed from every single other shawarma experience I've had that the meat was always going to be dry due to the spits they have the meat spinning on - but here the chicken is very juicy and fresh! I will continue to come back here when I am craving shawarma. The large baklava I purchased was pretty standard - from Montreal. It wasn't bad but I wish it had a bit more honey.
I ordered some Donair sandwiches from The King Shawarma, and was extremely disappointed with the amount of food. As seen in the pictures attached, the amount of meat that is in the wrap is astounding. Question for the owner: is there a shortage of meat at your establishment? If I was choosing a Shawarma place to get take-out from, I would strongly think twice about ordering from here. These wraps were the thinnest I have ever seen. A single slice of meat is unfortunately not adequate. Not even close. Hopefully you are able to fix this issue for your other customers, but I will not be coming back. Take care!
I have been getting shawarma here for years and it never disappoints. Friendly service, always fresh and flavorful (and excellent garlic).
Amazing food
Great local shawarma place, family oriented with original ingredients. Must visit!
I didnt like the shawarma meat, it was mushy, otherwise the rest is good
Best Putin
Best shawarma place in orleans
Shawarma in town
King Shawarma stands out as the best because of its consistently fresh and flavorful ingredients, creating a perfect blend of taste in every bite. The succulent, marinated meats are always tender and grilled to perfection, offering an authentic Mediterranean experience. Kid-friendliness: Very kind to kids
The chicken was so juicy and got recommended fully-Mustafa
Best shawarma place in Ontario
Good food, good service
The food was good.
Best choice
I ordered food the food was late and cold. When it arrived, the poutine tasted disgusting and had spoiled. Do not buy poutine from here for your own health.
Amazing shawarma
Hands down best shawarma in Ottawa, great portions and even better taste !
I ordered a chicken shawarma and was by far the first sandwitch I had, I usually don t like to give negative feed back but I was sick for 2 days after eating there I highly don t recommend them.
Don t even know where to begin, atmosphere was very bad, store was really dirty, the man making my shawarma kept making weird remarks, I couldn t wait to pay and leave. Store was about a 5 minute drive to my house and when I got there and tried eating the sandwitch it was all soggy and falling apart the only thing I recommend getting from there was the pepsi.
The best shawarma i ever had and costumer service is good and the place is clean totally recommend
Great food with friendly staff. Always feel welcomed when I come to grab my weekly dose of shawarma :) highly recommend
I recently tried The King Shawarma, and it was fantastic! The chicken shawarma was tender, well-seasoned, and perfectly wrapped in a warm pita with fresh veggies and a delicious garlic sauce. The portions were generous, and the staff were friendly and quick. It s definitely some of the best shawarma Ive had. Highly recommend!
The food is amazing and the guy in cashier has an amazing smile which makes my day thank you guys for you service
Best sharwarma in ottawa! staff is super nice.
Very friendly people and a delicious sandwich!
If you want a perfect chicken fatouch salad, adams the guy to chef it up for you. Recommend going here for good quality shawarma!!
I love it
Outstanding customer service every time I visit this place. If you re a fan of authentic, mouthwatering shawarma, The King Shawarma is an absolute must-visit. Highly recommended.
best shawarma
The shawarma sandwich was sooo delicious. Everything was fresh and tasty. And the staff was nice and polite. Love the place. Food
The food here is incredible, I usually go for the poutine its delicious ! The staff is amazing, especially Coco, a total sweetheart. I highly recommend this place.
The food here is amazing with a wide variety for both vegetarians and non-vegetarians. Their sandwiches are delicious. I highly recommend king shawarma!
A couple of weeks ago I dropped by this shawarma shop for the first time, i was hungry and rushed for time. I was greeted by two super friendly workers, had my food prepared and left. As I left I noticed that the small sandwich was huge, got into my truck and started to eat it, this was one of the best sandwiches I had in a long time. I returned on June 5, had the same beef shawarma, amazing again, I ended up back in Orleans on June 6, I thought let s try the chicken shawarma , omg, the chicken was great, fresh, delicious and plentiful. The staff is amazing here, both the beef and chicken is in my opinion are probably the best around. So to recap, huge sandwiches, great food and prices, and amazing staff!!!!!
Chicken shawarma, potatoes with the spicy garlic, and fattoush salad were amazing. See you soon!
After closing their Ogilvie location, they asked me to join them at their Orleans location, which is a long trek for me. Because I enjoyed their food, I thought Id try it on my way back from Orleans. She had her usual Fattoush salad with chicken but I decided to have a chicken plate. She ended up being sick for a day and it didnt agree with her. The food tastes different as well as the meat is much drier. So ask yourself this before visiting Orleans, if the business is doing so well (her words), why close it?
The shawarma, salads, prices all superb. I great choice for a fast meal
Their platter had the best-tasting meat Ive had in years, excellent potatoes, rice etc. One platter is plenty for a couple to share, we even took some home with us; so did another couple that was there when we were. The people are friendly and happy to serve you too.
From all of the shawarma places I have tried in Ottawa this has to be one of the best if not the best. 10/10 must recommend!
All around good shawarma, the guy working the cash up front has amazing customer service skills and really knows how to serve a customer correctly with a little added humour in as well. The chicken could be cooked a bit more and was a little dry but had good flavor, the garlic sauce seemed to be a bit chunky and the potatoes tasted good but had obviously been sitting there for a long time. Other than that it was very good. Will come back. The price is slightly under your standard price for a trio as well.
It was a wonderful dinner last night. Even my picky kids loved it.
food came out perfect and the guy behind the counter was beyond respectful and patient. 12/10 would %100 recommend
Slightly disappointed with the family deal shawarma platter; it contained less meat than expected, and there was an abundance of lettuce used as filler. Ive experienced more generous portions with the couples deal. Overall, the family deal didnt seem worth its price.
Amazing food here, workers are really nice and funny
Had the mix platter. Was really good with fresh and high quality ingredients
Very good service and amazing service
Food is amazing! The owner is so nice! We will be coming again next week!
We have been going there for a couple of years now and have found the service and quality have gone downhill. I was just in this evening and noticed the prices have went up, fair, in todays climate that is to be expected. But the amount of topping and chicken they put it in the shawarma has went down. Ill pay more for the same amount. Im not paying more for less. I also asked for a chicken shawarma combo, but instead of the garlic potatoes I wanted to upgrade to a small chicken poutine. I told him Id pay the difference in price. Oh no, we cant do that......seriously? Take the price of the small garlic potatoe and subtract it from the price of a small chicken poutine and charge me the difference. Dont be lazy and difficult. Well have to find another shawarma place from now on.
Been a customer for years. Last order was awful. Potatoes were stale and sandwiches with almost no meat. When complained on next visit, female was very apologetic but male chef was arguing with female in Arabic and seem to dismiss my claim. They certainly lost this customer.
My Husband and I have been getting the Chicken Shawarma platter here for the better part of 12 years. We always order it no rice no potatoes just extra salad and it was great. The last year things have been going down hill but not enough to make us stop getting food from here not until tonight. We each had a chicken shawarma platter. My husbands was well dressed the chicken he got was very nice looking. Mine not so great my chicken looked more shredded rather then sliced, I didnt get any hummus and what little garlic I got was watery. The salad itself was terrible the tomatoes were border line bad ( I didnt eat any) and what ever dressing was on it was completely watery with no flavor. We only got one pita bread between the two of us. We will never get food from here ever again unless they bring the original guys back.
Most expensive shawarma of Ottawa city. Taste is alright would rate 5/10. You can get a platter at any other place for the same price as Sandwich and Potatoes!!
Absolutely disgusting. Cold and sloppy and just thrown together. When I placed my order it seemed like I was bothering them, however there was no one else in the place. Many other better places in Orleans.
They give a lot less food than they used to. The food is amazing but the price is have gone up and the food portions have gotten smaller
Yeah not very good. I think the worst Shawarma in Orleans. Twice I ate here and it stinks. Most any other place in Orleans has better Shawarma. Dont ruin a good sandwich experience coming here. Overly sweet curry, sweet sauce too sweet, lack of meat in sandwich. Strange sliver sized rice was gross. It was just cheapy wrapped in paper not tinfoil to keep it warm. Go elsewhere thank me later.
They gave me old rice (stinks) and fries twice. You are paying $10 and get refried fries, assuming customers will not figure out, thats low. My son loves fries and he was struggling to eat them. I would highly recommend to go to Shawarma Palace. You will definitely get fresh food there.
Lots of food for the price. Typical fare. The menu wraps around 3 walls so is a bit hard to navigate. Parking: Strip mall parking
My favourite shawarma place ever! Ive had their beef, chicken, falafel and Donair meat! its all delicious! their sauce selection is good and delicious as well! The garlic sauce is god tier! Their rice, and potatoes are delicious but my favourite is the fattoush salad! the best Ive ever had! Everyone i share this place with always loves it and makes it their shawarma place. The whole menu is absolutely exquisite!
Best shawarma in orleans
Excellent quality in food and service
Hands down the best shawarma in the city. Portions are generous. Ratios of ingredients are spot on. Proteins are perfect. The walk-in special is a steal of a deal. Ive been going here for years and will continue to do so for a long time.
service very slow , one person in front of me ordering for 10 people which is fine is staff had the courtesy to let me know he was busy , never go there again with staff like that
Generous Shawarmas are very tasty.
From someone who is from Toronto, where i have been to almost all Shawarma places, I can confirm that this is way better than any places i have been to. This guy knows quantity! They dont do cost cutting while giving out food. Very friendly service. Food is testy as well. I wish shawarma places in Toronto can understand this. This is how it should be. Thank you for delicious food. EDIT: somehow the review wasnt showing up ever since i posted a month ago. Did a small edit and now its visible. Kid-friendliness: Staff was actually making conversation with kids!!! Wheelchair accessibility: Its in the plaza where parking available. I dont think the store has push button for door but i am sure that the staff will help to anyone who needs help.
Unfortunately, food didnt meet my expectations. The chicken was cold and the overall quality wasnt up to par.
Amazing Food, Great Customer Service!
Nice and welcoming Moe.
Good excellent
Great Shawarma, fast and friendly service! Thank you!
Nice service and generous Poutine. I recommend!
Best food very nice staff
Wallahi best food
Great food with great service and a nice place to dine
wallah amazing food
The restaurant moved locations but still the same staff. Fast, friendly and absolutely the best!!
Its the best Lebanese food around
I informed the guy Im allergic to eggs and garlic sauce. He didnt tell me they cooked the potatoes in the garlic sauce, and I had a bad reaction. Good sandwich, but bad allergy response. I wouldve been quite happy just getting the sandwich Dietary restrictions: Be better about allergies. Theyre crucial to the business
Excellent customer service
The best food!! Shawarma
The chef is very nice and I recommend it
Not sure if new management, but food seems much better. Chicken is juicy and the pickled turnips are great!
I order the bogo but I didnt get the second free item. I called the restaurant and the man who answered the call, Gheese, was extremely rude and said too bad. He wouldnt let me talk to the manager and wouldnt talk to the manager himself. Then when I tried to ask him how this can be fixed he hung up on me. The portion of the food I did get was disgusting and definitely not fresh. The potatoes were cold, the falafel was cold and very dry, and the garlic sauce was chunky. Please avoid.
Their sandwich is okay, not the best but not bad either. But what really surprised me is seeing the two workers not wearing masks and singing while preparing my sandwiches.
Awesomeeeeeee!! Fully recommended
Been coming here for years, have always been happy with the food...so good
Great food. Great service. Large portions. Recommend :)
Went to the (waters rd) location tonight, the guy (Marroush) was welcoming, funny, and very happy overall we had a great conversation. Food was amazing, fresh and tasty. He gave me a nice portion of food! Never had a bad experience at either locations.
Great service amazing food great people
Just had one of the best times at The King! I cant remember the name of who made my sandwich but he is a legand! I was at the location in orleans. Keeps you smiling and on your feet the whole time your there and you are guaranteed to leave with good food and a smile on your face. He even gave me a little extra taste of some meat with his special sauce on there and let me tell you. Its special!! You can not go wrong here
Great Food!!!
Worst experience ever smh! So I ordered the bogo donair plate. The meat is hard and dry! Drenched in sweet sauce that I did not ask for nor does it show in the picture they advertised! And the fattoush salad is old and taste like blue mold!!! cold potatoes and tasteless! I ended up having to cook dinner, this was not edible!
First and last time. The food was cold. Found hair in the food.
Large and generous servings of food, especially the meats. They definitely dont hold back or skimp. Lots of family trays and platter options as well. They uniquely offer 2 styles of rice compared to other shawarma places. However the food overall didnt seem as flavourful to me. Good for a very hungry person.
Some of the best shawarma weve had in Orleans. Everything tastes very fresh and not at all dry (like many shawarma places)
Adam did a great job of taking orders and a very friendly guy, highly recommend the food here aswel it s a bang for your buck!
Great food and Drinks :)
Great customer service and the food was really tasty
such a good place, such good food, and the person working there today was very kind:) he said i could get whatever drink i wanted along with my order as long as i left a review after - which is a great deal to me!! i love this place and could eat their food every day
Extra large Shwarma combo sandwich purchased. Delicious.
Amazing value. Highly recommend the food. Fresh, extremely flavourful. Very fast service. Thanks for everything!
The food was soggy and the chicken was discusting. The wrap was completely wet and grosse. The salad smelled moldy. Being pregnant I like almost all foods and this was by far the most disappointing meal Ive had in forever. Sad I wasted my money here for a meal I wouldnt have to cook myself for the family.
The salad tasted like musty mold on them also the sandwiches were soggy and disgusting. Very disappointing spent 90$ on this.
Very nice people, really good shawarma and the drink choices are really nice
The food was So dry and salty, I had a very bad experience!
The food is succulent.Also Moe is excellent a costumer service he is funny and makes the food as soon as posible.Go check his store out you wont regret it .
Saw bugs flying around the food and even a hair while he was making the food, overcharge for low quality and lack of drinks.
I always get amazing customer service from this place. Anyone I bring around agrees. Quick service time and the portion sizes are great.
The best shawarma! Beats even shawarma palace and Artz shawarma in st-laurent mall. Im very much a chicken person, but fell in love with their beef shawarma. They have affordable family platters with generous portions. Highly recommend!
Service is quick and the staff is friendly. I ve been eating there for 10 years and it s still good. They give bigger portions than others
Best shawarma In Ottawa!
Excellent service and quality of the food was fresh.
this place is the best! Been going there for nearly 20 years. The food is fresh, very tasty. The staff are always very friendly, the portions are generous and prices are reasonable for the amount of food they serve. LUV this restaurant.
Love it Ahmad is the best employee
Best shawarma chicken in Ottawa
Fresh huge portions. Would for sure go back again.
Mamoun and ahmad were very friendly and the food was great
I ate two meat and vegetable platters as part of the ubereats two for one special. Both were similarly disgusting. The rice and meat taste fine, but the vegetables and other foods are really terrible. The bread mixed in with the shawarma also tastes terrible. The pita bread was fine though, and Im glad it wasnt mixed in with the food. I feel close to throwing up.
Good falafel not dry
I ordered two special plates for New Years Eve, early in the afternoon. When I went to pick it up at the requested time it was not ready because their pre-order system was not working. I had to wait 20 minutes for it to be cooked and prepared. They were very apologetic, and included a package of Baklava. It was worth the wait. There was plenty of food, enough for two days. Thanks to all at King Shawarma!
Food poisoning after ordering from this location. Called the manager to advise him and was shrugged off. I dont recommend this place.
Amazing from A to Z
Just ok. Long line but service could be improved.
Disappointed, Ive been going there for years and theyve changed administration around a year ago. Now prices went way up, the famous garlic sauce isnt the same and they microwave stuff in front of you all the time...
First time here. Ordered two chicken plates via Uber Eats. The delivery was quick and the food is decent. The flavour of the garlic sauce is a bit light. Would order again.
The BEST chicken salad!! Ordering online and picking up during pandemic is very convenient!
Came here last night. The staff was very friendly, gave us free magic sauce and free baklavas. The shawarma family platter (around 45$ with tax) was delicious and was plenty of food!
Tried to get a chicken and meat salad wanted the meat separated as its disgusting to put salad on meat straight as it will make the meat cold and the veggies sogie they where like no we cant. They said theyll charge me for both separate. Its too easy to put the meat in a 2 cent plastic container and give the salad separate I used order from them all the time on uber never again.
I dont want to give a negative review because the food is very good but I gave it a four stars instead of five stars because of the lack of consistency. I am used to getting a very fair portion for the price I would pay for something like a large chicken salad, but I dont like it when I order a salad and the size and amount of chicken is less than Im used to getting. I think no matter who who serves me the portions should be the same.
Ive had shawarma all over ottawa, and this place has the best one, amazing
Food is fantastic! You get plenty for what you pay for! Been going here for years and food never disappoints. Used the order online option and food was ready on time...so walk in, state your name, pick up order and leave. Would definitely recommend to anyone who loves Lebanese food! Staff friendly and happy to serve you. Thanks to The King Shawarma!!!!
Best of the best
Excellent ; Staff is very friendly, Food is delicious with Quality and Quantity aspects. Thanks ADAM
Great food
This is our go-to shawarma place. We love their potatoes .. with the yummy garlic sauce. Their hummus is delish. But our favourite thing is their fattoush salad. They put mint in it which makes extra special! So so yummy
Generous portions
The quailty of the food, is some of the best that I have tasted in this city. Everytime I order the food tastes fresh almost like it just came off the truck and they porpotion very well. I highly reccomend this place.
Great food at a fair price with professional and friendly service. One of my top 3 go to s if I need a quick, quality meal when I m going to or from the rink.
Been coming here for YEARS and weve never been disappointed, whether food or service. Delicious and generous plate portions. Highly recommend!
Fantastic shawarma, generous portions, and great service. Garlic to knock your socks off. Beautiful, I love this place.
Was so delicious
Honestly never once had a bad experience, been going there for years and recommend it to all my friends. Absolutely fantastic food and friendly service. Easily the best Shawarma joint in Ottawa no.contest.
Hands down one of the best shawarma shops in Ottawa. The workers are more than generous with the portions and youll never be disappointed with their service. Prices are also very fair compared to other shops in the city.
Always great food at a great price
Excellent, quality cuisine! No longer a Shawarma Palace fan. King Shawarma has my vote!
Im leaving this review like hot bread out of the oven. 40 min of my life wasted waiting for 2 shawarmas and 1 plater, no doubt one of the worst services I ve ever encounter so far. No explanation why. The front man, after I asked why such a long waiting time, he just said - I don t know man - like ashamed of the problem, like it has happened before and he doesn t know why they make people wait so much. Not the first time they make wait, but guarantee it will be the last as I ll will never be going again. To be honest, I use this place as a backup when shawarma palace is full, big mistake, it always disappoints. Better to wait at the palace. Ps: both shawarma with no veggies also just the meat and the sauces. I m so mad! 50$ with 15% tip btw
Accidentally gave a wrong one star review to this King Shawarma location last night after having a poor experience at a different location. I went in to this one today and it was quite lovely. My apologies.
Best schwarma Ive ever had!
In my opinion this is the best place to enjoy Lebanese food. The ingredients are always fresh and the service is good and fast. Im never disappointed when I pick food there. Keep up the good work!
Great food
Delicious food every single time. Friendly staff. Able to follow instructions and special requests. Best Shawarma spot in Orleans!! Give it a try, you wont be disappointed.
Hands down THE BEST shawarma place in ottawa!! Love love love their shawarmas! Do NOT change your recipes or sauces please! My entire family comes here for their shawarmas! The staff are a little creepy with women but other than that, the food is magnificent! My only recommendation to them is maybe to stop speaking in another language in front of customers. I overheard a young girl behind me say they were talking about her as she understood the language they were speaking. Not cool. One star removed for that.
People, there are much better places then this in Orleans. Rude staff and the food is a 4 at best. Dont dare ask for another scoop of garlic. No Garlic for you!
When this place first opened it was wonderful. There garlic is awesome but honestly no longer a favorite. Main reason have modified therefamous fatoush salade , dressing included (its now made with concentrated lemon juice ) and tastes awful not to mention they put WAY too much dressing so the salad is soggy even after mentioning little dressing. Please go back to how it was!
Solid shawarma. Great quick service.
One of our favorites! Super clean, great food and nice staff.
Dont understand why depending who is working, they dont always put garlic on the side of chicken. Is there not a standard? Either garlic comes with it or doesnt it
the best arabic food restaurant in town
The best lebanese food restaurant in town and very lovely and cute chef adam
Best Shawarma in the town
The King restaurant is the best Shawarma place in Orleans. The food is fresh and tasty. The services very good. I really recommend to go and try the King Shaped.
My lord and savior
Last time I had been there, it was at the beginning on the pandemic and the person behind the counter wore the same vinyl gloves to handle cash money and make the food. I had asked him to change gloves and he seemed insulted by my request. I haven t gone back since... I don t trust them.
I am not pleased with my chicken fatouche salad not with my shawarma. Won t order there again
Always fresh, always tasty. The best chicken fatoosh in Ottawa.
Amazing food....
Very friendly and the best fatoush Ive tried.
My chicken shawarma and falafel was DELICIOUS. Very good and fast service here. Will be back again.
Best Shawarma & Best Garlic in Ottawa. Ever since I moved away 5 years ago, Ive havent been able to find a better tasting sandwich. Dont be fooled, this is as good as it gets.
Great shawarma
Best halaal food in the city.
Is was tasty could be a lil hotter rice and meat was a lil cold Ill be back
Literally garbage, the staff are horrible and they are for sure the cheapest shawarma place in orleans. If you re looking for a actual good shawarma place visit The Garlic King on St Joseph, or Yalla Yalla on innes and trim. Much better value and much much better staff.
Microwaved Shawarma.
Excellent
Our family s favourite Lebanese take out. The chicken fatoosh salad is
Fattoush with chicken did not include humus, tomatoes, pickles or turnips. Extra $$$ for small amount of garlic.
Clean facility and great food.
Tasty meal.
Really good food. It was a little cold but I also went at the end of the day so its understandable
it s so expensive for family platters and the taste is not perfect.
Great food at good prices. Taking one star out because the potatoes were a little stale.
