Love going to this place for lunch, it being so close to NRC offices. The kabab plate and the chicken shawarma are my go to items. The prices are okay considering the portions but I'd still put it on the steep side. The is ample parking in the front and side of the store. read more

I got some takeout at Laheeb for my mom and I. Overall it was very good, although the wait was really long. We both got the Mashawi Platter ($12.75 each). This platter comes with 4 meat skewers: filet mignon, chicken breast, chicken shami (ground chicken) and beef shami (ground beef), fries, a grilled half onion, and a grilled piece of tomato on a bed of parsley. It also comes with a quarter pita smeared in tomato sauce and a full plain pita. The meats are grilled to order, which is great, but it does mean that the wait is quite long (around 30 minutes). The meats were really flavourful. My favourite were the filet mignon and the chicken breast (shish taouk) kebabs. I wasn't crazy about the ground meat ones. They tasted too fatty/greasy for my liking. The fries were regular cut fries and were unremarkable in my opinion. The pita was fresh. I didn't eat the grilled onion or the grilled tomato. I liked that you get a variety of different meats in one platter. I would have preferred to get rice and salad instead of fries and the grilled onion and tomato, but that's not an option with the platter. I would have to buy things a la carte, and it would have cost significantly more. Service was friendly. There is free parking in the private lot that they share with the Subway Sandwiches next door. read more

Wow, if you're looking for authentic charcoal meats and middle-eastern style sides, Laheeb Grill is a great choice! They are relatively new (2 months old), and their owners are very helpful and patient. I tried: Lentil soup: a perfect start to the meal, this opened up my appetite and it wasn't too light as there were lentils inside the soup. The taste wasn't too salty, and it was comforting given the slightly rainy weather outside! Eggplant dip: this is my favourite middle-eastern dip, and I really enjoyed Laheeb's version. It was smoky, buttery, and had high-quality olive oil on top. It went really well with the pita bread and pickled veggies (turnip, pickle, onions) supplied. Hommus dip: great flavour, very velvety (not gritty), not too salty. Fattouch salad: I particularly enjoyed the slightly-sour/salty crispy bits of pita bread on top of this salad! Usually, I'm scared of fattouch salads being too sour, but this one was very balanced and fresh. Main platter with filet mignon, kabab, a lamb chop, shish tawook, and veggies kabab: WOW! This is the star of the show. All of the meats were very tender (only lamb chop had some slight gristle, but nothing major), and it was hard to decide on my favourite! The meats were not fatty, and were very well seasoned which I appreciated. The shish tawook was probably the best as the chicken was juicy and so flavourful (I want to learn how to make it at home)! It came with some fries which were thick cut and went well with the meat (dip them in garlic sauce)! Prices are reasonable and the owner told me they are freshly made to order. Atmosphere: There is sufficient seating inside to eat there, as it's best to eat the food while hot! The plates are disposable, which cuts down on costs, compared to having servers. There is also ample parking in front of the restaurant (it shares a large parking lot with Subway)! Service: A few minutes after I sat down, an employee came to my table and asked what I was craving that day, and gave a helpful explanation of the menu, emphasizing the low price of around $30 for 1 kilogram of meat! I met with the owner and his partner, and both were very helpful with the menu. I decided to let the owner decide what I should try for a more authentic experience, and it did not disappoint! The dishes were brought out quickly, and there wasn't that much wait time in-between dishes. He checked on me to ensure I wasn't missing anything too, and smiled often (which is important to me)! Note: I was invited to try their food, and really appreciate being gifted this dining experience! I will be back to bring my friends and family. I am already craving the charcoal bbq taste. Yum! read more

Food is good enough that I ordered twice in one day! My Mom lives in the east end, not too far from this location. During the winter months when she wants to visit our family in Barrhaven, I pick her up, and drop her back home, since she doesn't like driving in winter. I took this opportunity to get a family platter for us to share for lunch. Very good portion size for the price. Quality and taste is excellent. You can tell that good ingredients are used. We all really loved it. So much so, that, when I dropped my Mom back home, I stopped in at Laheeb to order more chicken to share with the family for supper the next day. Highly recommended - if I'm willing to drive from Barrhaven to Montreal Road, you KNOW it's good! read more

I ordered delivery so I can't say a lot about the physical place so here is my experience with their food. I ordered a mix (kebab, beef and chicken tikka) but they only put me chicken. However, this is not even the worst part. The worst part is that it took them almost 1.5 hours to cook the order which was almost 2 hours of wait including delivery time. The chicken was dry but I liked that they cook it on charcoal which gives the chicken nice flavour. I also loved their fries and their garlic sauce is great. If they haven't messed up my order I would have loved this place. You should probably dine in to make sure the order is fulfilled correctly but other than that, their food is good. read more
