Very simple place just running out of basically a trailer in a parking lot but you could tell that everyone working there was super kind and the lady taking orders was very nice. Took a little bit for the food to come but it was well worth it it's a lot of food for the money and every part of it was very delicious. The chips were crispy as in the name and the cheese was nice and squeaky as cheese curds should be. The gravy was rich but didn't overwhelm the whole meal. Great little spot if you want some real authentic Canadian poutine.

BEST CHIPS IN OTTAWA!…read more This is my second visit to Ottawa and last time I went to a few other places and this is definitely the best poutine I have had in Ottawa. The fires were crispy, the curds were squeaky and the gravy was delicious. Id also like to shout out the person who took our order; she was super friendly and asked me to share my thoughts after, which just made the whole experience that much more enjoyable. It's in a Canadian Tire parking lot, which just adds to the Canadian vibe. 5/5 amazing place!

Di Rienzo's is a small deli tucked away in Ottawa's little Italy neighborhood but trust me it's no secret. There's always a line of the well informed, salivating with a grin as they wait (not long mind you, they move fast). The smell here is your first clue that your in for somethings delicious, if you weren't hungry when you arrived you will be once the aroma hits your nostrils. They have a selection of Italian pre-packaged products and various snacks, as well as cold drinks to complete your meal. That said, this joint is all about the sandwiches. They'll make whatever combo of meats, cheese, and toppings you want but if your unsure just pick one of the options on the board. I almost always get the #14. It's all the delicious Italian meats you could want plus havarti, lettuce, and mayo (exchange the regular havarti for the herbed havarti if you'd like). The bread is amazing quality as well. You really can't go wrong here. They have some sandwiches in a case ready to go as well, such as the steak which I hear is amazing. The staff here couldn't be more friendly and accommodating which is no small feat for a place this busy. There are no tables so it's takeout only and It IS cash only however they have an ATM for the unprepared. Oh, lest I forget, this amazing and quality sandwich is less than 10 bucks! This spot is a real gem and if you find yourself nearby you absolutely have to try it out.

The sandwich was tasty (I got the small size and yes - it was small), the salad was tasty (I love the dressing they use and the pieces of "crackers" in there) and the plate was not bad. My only complaint was the that the potatoes were too dry but the rice was good. The chicken was also a bit on the dryer side but still tasty. Overall, I'd order again from here. The quality of the food was better than other restaurants I've tried for shawarma and the quantity for the price was fair.

The staff were one of the friendliest I had come by that insisted on making fresh hummas (even though they were about to close shortly). The chicken shawarma platter came with rice, salad, potatoes, pita bread, tzatziky, and another sauce I don't remember. The chicken tasted great and went well with the sauces. The potatoes were soft yet firm in a way that worked for them. Will definitely go there again.

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!
