Got the beyond burger with added hot relish . so good, but on the heavier side. Bun was so fluffy and fresh. Messy so, make sure you have napkins nearby. The hand cut fries stole the show for me, paired with their in-house malt mayo. Also, tried the chipotle and honey mustard and both were amazing. They really nailed it with their sauces.

First time trying this place out - I'm a fan of sandwiches and regularly eat at Subway or Jersey…read moreMike's in the USA so had a certain basis to compare it to. Firehouse is really a step above! I love the theme of the place, the easy menu ordering options and variety. There's plenty of parking, tables for seating and love how the staff greets you as you walk in. Firehouse has sandwiche names you can order straight off the menu so this takes any guess work in terms of figuring out how you want to customize it, however you can also build your own with any ingredients available. I tried the meatball sub and the classic italian on white bread. We opted for the large size and it was plenty if you are very hungry. Everything tasted super fresh and just perfect - honestly the most impressive thing for me was the bread. It it moist and light, definitely better than Subway or any other chain I've tried before. This location has a cool Coke Freestyle soda machine so you can choose from huge selection of drink options, many of them zero sugar as well. Very fun! I will definitely be back and praying we get this in Quebec one day!

Wow! I am really impressed with this chain. Frequently visiting St. Laurent mall, I walked the food…read morecourt over and over again, and just wanted something different, and "healthier". I nervously popped into Poulet Rouge, intimidated by the menu and all the choices and received the friendliest service. I ordered a mini bowl with lettuce as a base. They offer plant based chicken, and opted for that, going with the shisha garlic flavour. The mini comes with a choice of 1 sauce and 3 toppings. I went with the chipotle sauce which had some nice kick to it. I topped it with cucumber, feta and tzatziki. The bowl was a perfect size for a quick light dinner. The plant based chicken was smokey and it was grilled to order. They have a couple seats to dine in away from the food court. Service was super quick and they were so friendly when I asked for recommendations. (sorry I forgot to take a picture, but I will next time I am there, because its now a new fave)

Poulet Rouge has arrived in Ottawa! It is a chain from Montreal that specializes in build your own…read morechicken bowls, salads and wraps. Their chicken is Halal. You can get everything without chicken too if you are a vegetarian/vegan, but they do not have alternate proteins. This location is in the St Laurent Shopping Centre (the other location in Ottawa is at the Rideau Centre). It's in the food court, but they actually have their own private seating, although you can bring your food to the main food court seating as well. I've had Poulet Rouge before, in Montreal, and at the Rideau Centre location as well. I really like the food at this chain. This visit I got the build your own Rouge Bowl ($10.99). You get to choose a chicken flavour (Hercules/lemon, Shisha/garlic, Fusion/BBQ or Volcano/spicy), a base (brown rice or bulgur, you can upgrade to quinoa for an additional cost), a dressing, and 7 toppings. I got the Hercules chicken with brown rice, no dressing, spinach, tomatoes, beets, bell peppers, black beans, cheese, and tzatziki (which counts as a topping and not a dressing). The food here is consistent with the location at Rideau. I feel like they might be a bit more generous with the meats in Montreal, but it's been a while since I've been there, so it might be they've shrunk portions everywhere. The chicken portion is still good, and my bowl was still very tasty. Service was friendly and the place looks clean. Poulet Rouge is definitely a welcomed addition to the St. Laurent food court :)

TLDR / cut to the chase: Good A&W location, consistent with standard A&W food, friendly staff. My…read morestandards for fast food aren't high. This location meets all of them. They have a Brew Bar. Funny story, my brother loves A&W and used to work near this location before it opened up. He lamented how he wished there was an A&W near his work so he could go there for lunch. Shortly after he stopped working there, they opened up this A&W, haha. It's a relatively new location. I think it opened in 2021 or 2022. I've been to this location a few times. It's around the corner from a Winners (my favourite place to shop) and my husband has been known to go in and grab a Buddy Burger or two while he's waiting for me to finish shopping, lol. Their food is consistent, the space is clean, and staff are friendly. They recently launched their Brew Bar at this location, so now they also sell Root Beer slushies, fruit smoothies, creamy shakes, frozen lemonade, cold brews and lattes. We were there during this launch. They had a DJ playing tunes, the place was decorated with balloons and they had a spin the wheel game set up out front to win A&W merchandise. I won a bottle opener and my husband won a frisbee. We also got coupons to try a free small drink from the Brew Bar. I got the Strawberry Smoothie and my husband got the Acai Mixed Berries Smoothie. The regular price is $3.99 each. The smoothies are made by this automated machine. It's fun to watch. The smoothies were good, but a bit too sweet for my liking. They are made with real fruit puree, but I'm certain there's added sugar. The Mixed Berries one had a bit of an artificial aftertaste, which the Strawberry one didn't have. I feel that this location is more for people who live or work nearby or tourists or if you're already in the area doing something else. There's no parking. Street parking is hard to come by and not all that close. It is right by Parliament Station though, so easily accessible by public transit. This location is open 24/7.

Haven't been to this chain in over ten years since they started closing all locations in Quebec. We…read moredined at this location Saturday August 5th and tried the ravioli and shrimp alfredo dishes. We were very pleased with the complimentary all-you-can-eat bread and salad. The portion for our salad was huge, they ran out of small bowls so we both got to each a very large bowl of cesar salad. There's real bacon pieces, sauce wasn't as plentiful as I would have liked, but the flavor was good. Bread is soft and warm, very pleasant as well. Too bad it seems they use margarine or some type of unsalted butter as there was lacking a bit of flavor for the bread. The pasta meals were just average sized, not huge, so go ahead and enjoy all the salad and bread you can get. The ravioli dish was good, very cheesy and filling. Shrimp alfredo was a bit bland - there was a off smell to it, perhaps from the cheese, but it wasn't a decadent creamy sauce I was expecting. It also comes with little bits of tomatoes and veggie so the next day when I brought my leftover home, the noodles were a soggy mess. Adding the tomato is a nice fresh addition and looks nice but won't translate to a good leftover since it comes very watery once reheated. Overall experience is decent, nothing awesome. Perhaps there are some menu options that a lot better, we never tried their pizza so can't comment as a whole but for the price and casual sit down, East Side Marios is OK. The best thing is really the all you can eat salad, soup and bread.

Tasted amazing and the server was a total sweetheart. They are of all you can eat soup salad and bread. I had a little bit of the Caesar salad it was really good.

Kinda feels like a semi-permanent establishment. Smash Daddy Burger - A double patty of flattened beef was delicious. It was a melange of flavours that worked very well.

There was a good amount of seasoning on the fries making it tasty in flavour and texture. Would come back just for this!

Service was okay- our waiter seemed a little young and forgot to ring up our nachos. We wanted them as an app to share with the table, but they never came.

Which was fine- a few of our friends were still hungry, haha. The restaurant itself is charming- lots of beautiful decor and the drink and dessert menus are so beautiful! They're printed on little cards connected by an O-ring. One thing i will say that's slightly negative is that it's pretty expensive; that makes this restaurant a "once in a while" location for me.

I haven't had five guys in years and decided on a trying the veggie sandwich. I got it with fried peppers and onions, pickles, mayo, lettuce and tomato.

Ugh. :( (please see pictures for reference). I'm sorry-but really not sorry...but as soon as I find hair in my food, its a done deal for me, and I rarely if ever give establishments a second chance, which leaves me to giving this place a one star!
