La Joie Shawarma, WOW... I can't stop eating from it, it made me love the shawarma even more, the best and cleanest shawarma restaurant in the area! And the owner, what a gentleman. 5 out of 5 Restaurant and 5 out of 5 owner. MY FAVOURITE SHAWARMA RESTAURANT!!!!
Nazih is really good amazing everything really good service i recommend it
Chicken salad is soooo good!!
Hands down one of the best beef shawarmas around. The meat was super tender with perfect crispy edges off the spit, not dry or gristly at all. Perfect amount of tahini and sumac onions, fresh pita, and properly wrapped. 10/10
Delicious food and super friendly staff!
I’ve had shawarma at many places, but this one stood out for its freshness and great quality. I’ll definitely be coming back.
Food and service was fantastic! Ingredients tasted and looked fresh. Gracious hosts and generous servings. Would love to go back soon!
It was rather busy at lunch time, but the food was well worth the wait.
Nothing but amazing staff, fresh and clean! Best Falafel, chicken and the beef is mouth watering, gets busy at lunch worth the wait.
I discovered La Joie Shawarma about two years ago, and ever since, it’s been part of my weekly routine. The food quality is consistently top everything tastes fresh, and you can tell a lot of care goes into each dish. The garlic sauce and hummus are incredibly flavorful and perfectly made. As for the beef and the chicken shawarma sandwich, all dressed with spicy sauce and sesame, it’s hands down the best shawarma I’ve had in the Ottawa–Gatineau area. Nothing else comes close. I honestly can’t enjoy shawarma from anywhere else now. The owner and his team are super friendly and welcoming, which makes the whole experience even better. Just a tip: try to get there early at lunchtime because it gets busy really fast! Shukran brother!!
The owner is very nice and respectful, always smiling and willing to serve. The food is excellent, overall very good.
