Had a smash burger craving and found this place on google. As GTA-ers, food trucks in a parking lot…read morewith picnic tables is a relatively new thing for me. 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. I wish the patty was more crispy so that there is more texture in the patty. Naked Fries - The spiced fries were one of the best fries I've had. Fries were super crispy with fluffy interior. There was a good amount of seasoning on the fries making it tasty in flavour and texture. Would come back just for this!

Food truck in parking lot…read more Smash burger very tasty. A bit greasy, but doesn't take away from it. Two patties well smashed. Love the crispy brown look. The fries are nice and crispy/crunchy and come seasoned. Very friendly staff/owner? Serves food to the small patio area, and checks in with patrons on how they find the food. I would come back again.

It was ridiculous and in fact makes me reluctant to go back. Even though we asked that they lower the volume, and they said they would, it really never happened. The experience was miserable.

I really like their hamburgers and fries here…read more The bunderful burger is messy to eat but it's totally worth the 8 napkins you must continuously wipe your mouth after taking each bite. The fries are so tastey in whatever greasey oil they cook in. This is ultimate comfort food & worth every calorie. If you're still hungry, there are salty peanuts complimentary (sometimes) as well.

Our first taste of Mary Brown's as we don't have one in the Bay Area. Turns out the day we went…read morewas National Fried Chicken Day so we couldn't resist getting two orders. We were surprised by how heavy the box was! The chicken was tender, hot and crispy! My only complaint is that they got our order of one spicy and one regular wrong even though I asked them specifically. I think cuz it was so busy they got a lot of orders wrong. I'd rate this my tied for my second favorite fast food fried chicken to date.

Edo Japan has come such a long way! It's a Canadian chain that sells Japanese food. It was founded…read morein 1979 and started off exclusively in mall food courts mainly just selling chicken and beef teriyaki on white rice. I used to hate it because it was mostly bean sprouts and onions (with some cabbage and carrots) with gristley meat on plain rice. So I avoided Edo for like 20 years, lol. However, recently one of my co-workers bought his lunch from there and it was a noodle bowl and looked delicious. I asked him where it was from and I was shocked when he said Edo Japan. They have totally expanded their menu, have stand alone locations now (of which this is one of them) and their food is pretty good for fast food, just a bit pricey imo. I got the Hawaiian Chicken Bento Box ($13.75). It came with my choice of 2 sides. I got Gyoza and California Rolls. The Hawaiian Chicken is chicken, pineapple, cabbage, broccoli and carrots on a bed of white rice (the menu said mushrooms were included, my meal for some reason did not have mushrooms). I got 2 Gyoza. The filling was ground pork. I got 4 California rolls. I asked for no sesame seeds and they were able to accommodate. The California rolls were grocery store quality sushi, so not that good. The filling was cucumber, avocado and an imitation crab salad (mixed with mayo). No masago. It was pretty flavourless. Gyoza were good. Fried from frozen, but to be expected of fast food joints. The Hawaiian Chicken was fried up to order. It was pretty tasty. I asked for their teriyaki sauce on the side and they gave me so much of it. I'm glad I didn't get the sauce on the food. It would have been way too wet and saucy for me. Service was very friendly and courteous. I'm so glad that I gave Edo Japan another chance. For Japanese fast food, they are pretty good. Obviously not as good as Japanese non-fast food, but you have to take places for what they are. This location is in College Square. It's next to Thai Express. Along the same side as Starbucks and BMO. Lots of free parking.

I wouldn't really recommend it but if someone's in the mood for a certain type of food like hotdog & such and I so happen to be near and A&W, I'd say this would be an option. That's my best way of describing this place without knocking it out. Service was non existent. There's a bunch of teenagers there. I can't say much about the ambiance or indoor setting.

I kept seeing the teen burger and since it is across the street from the hotel I am staying at... why not. I kept seeing the 24hr drive thru busy at all times. Surprising to see how busy it was inside as well. We have 1 in Brampton and it always looks slow. The drive thru there... service is so slow. Ok, so I ordered the teen burger, sweet potato fries and an ice tea. Once you pay, you take your drink to wherever your sitting. Someone brings the rest of your order. The burger was ... alright. Nothing great. I am intrigued to give the "beyond burger" a try next. The sweet potato fries was served in this neat mesh type basket... I saw regular fries being served with this too... it was good. Come with the chipotle mayo dipping sauce. Overall it was ok... the stars is for the neat... different experience.

We went to this restaurant on the very first day I arrived in Ottawa... and I liked the food so…read moremuch that I HAD to have it again on the day I was leaving! So yes, twice in one trip! Two different days, two VERY different experiences when it came to service, but thankfully the food was amazing both times. The first visit was perfect from beginning to end. Amazing service, great food, and just an overall great experience. The second visit... well, that was a little more challenging. The lady taking our order had quite the attitude. I'm sorry, but if dealing with customers annoys you that much, maybe working in a restaurant isn't the best choice. And then, on top of the attitude, the order got messed up. Mine came out right, but unfortunately my sister's didn't. I had the lamb kabab with rice and salad both times, and it was SO good! My sister had the shish tawook the first time as a plate and the second time as a sandwich. The restaurant itself is really nice with a beautiful Middle Eastern vibe, and it is HUGE! I can totally see how they transform the space into a banquet hall for parties and weddings. So, one amazing service experience and one not-so-amazing one ... but the food? That was good enough to bring me back before I even left Ottawa, so I think that says it all! I will be back next time I am in Ottawa!

I ordered from The Palace Shawarma while visiting my cousin in Ottawa, and it was the best shawarma…read moreI've ever had. I was genuinely amazed by the quality of the food. The meat was perfectly seasoned, tender, and packed with incredible flavor, and everything tasted fresh. I've had shawarma all over New York City, but this was on a completely different level. The quality, taste, and authenticity exceeded all my expectations. Even though it was delivered, the food arrived fresh and delicious. If you're in Ottawa and craving amazing shawarma, I highly recommend The Palace Shawarma. It's easily one of the best shawarma experiences I've ever had, and I'll definitely order again the next time I'm in town! Respectfully, Mostafa

Shawarma Palace might have to take the crown for the best shawarma in Ottawa!…read more As a Torontoian, we have decent shawarma but it doesn't compare to the shawarma in Ottawa. Whenever I'm in Ottawa, this is a spot you got to stop at. I admit it is pricer than other places but the service is friendly and efficient, things that you need at a booming place. At $30 for a mixed plate, I can't say it's cheap but it is filling. Prepare to have itis after and enjoy the massive amounts of protein. 4/5
