    I'm constantly on the hunt for the best shawarma in Ottawa! While Shawarma Prince may not be the "best" (I wonder if any ever will be!), it's certainly awesome. I find many shawarma places slightly dingy, but this place is lovely! The Merivale location is all bright greens and blues with cute wall art and food displays. They tout themselves as being "the healthiest shawarma place in town" and based on the freshness and colour of their ingredients this just might be true! I strolled in tonight around 10 p.m. and everything looks as delicious as if it was just chopped and put on display. The meat still looked fresh and juicy (let's be serious - even at 11 a.m. some shawarma places look like they just turned the spits on with the same meat as yesterday) and there were plenty of homemade sweets that didn't look like they'd been out for days. The food itself was delicious. The menu is standard Lebanese fare (chicken and beef shawarma, donnair, kafta, kabob, falafel) and my chicken plate cost about $12. It came with a mound of delicious potatoes, rice, salad, fresh pita and yummy chicken - superb.Highlight? DEFINITELY the garlic sauce. It might be my favourite that I've tried so far. Another highlight at this place is the service. The few times I've visited there's always been guys in their mid-twenties who were super polite, charming and funny. They know a ton about their ingredients and are always friendly. If you're in Nepean, check this place out. Bonus? They're open till 3 a.m. Friday and Saturday and midnight Monday to Thursday.

    The shawarma place is pretty good as well. I like how they separate the sauces from the dish. I like how they give you three sauces. Plenty of space to sit and dine in and parking as well. The pickles and other veggies are a bit too sour for me. Me and my wife share and it's just the right amount. I actually want more rice and potatoes. I'll come back here if I'm in the mood for some shawarma. A bit too much salad. The meat was okay with sauce they provided the meat tasted a lot better.

    Good, fresh food

    We were passing between museums and this popped up on our maps with decent reviews and was super…read moreeasy to get to. We love Lebanese food as one of our best friends is from Lebanon and opened our eyes. It was sketchy walking in, it looked closed and the parking lot was empty other than 2 other cars. But, upon opening the door and making our way to the dining area it was much better. Clearly this used to be a BIG operation back in the day, but now looks like it is mostly for take out or quick meals. The dining area and kitchen were all bright and clean. The man behind the counter was very friendly and was happy to sell us a couple of falafel on the side. He custom makes each wrap and plate for the guest which is great. You can see the meat on the spits as well as all of the fresh veg and sauces. He takes his time to build it just right for us which was really nice. Good menu options, I would have liked to try more. We really enjoyed our mixed wrap. He was kind enough to put the hot sauce on one half and not the other. Both were great. The falafel was quite dry, and the sauce didn't really help much. Good flavor. Overall it is a solid option, I'd get it again in a pinch, but the meats and falafel were quite dry. Service was great, everything was fresh and it was a great stop for us.

The mixed shawarma platter ($15.99) comes with beef and chicken shawarma, potatoes, rice (they have white rice with vermicelli and brown rice and I got half and half), pickles, pickled turnips, garlic sauce, hummus, a salad and a pita. I asked for the salad dressing on the side. The meat was good, but the beef was less lean than I like. The white rice with vermicelli was soft and fluffy, but the brown rice was a bit harder. The hummus was thick and smooth and the garlic sauce was rich and creamy. The salad had red peppers, tomatoes, romaine lettuce, red cabbage and onions. No pita chips. Vegetables were fresh. I liked the creamy pink salad dressing. The pita was ok. It was wrapped in paper like a big candy or one of those Christmas crackers/holiday poppers. Service was neutral. They have a fairly large dining area inside and some seats outside as well. Lots of free parking in their own private parking lot.

Based on other reviews, especially Keith T.'s, I ordered the half grilled boneless chicken plate with Bokhari rice. The plate also comes with turnips, salad, hummus, and garlic. I decided to upgrade the salad to a fattoush salad, get an additional 2oz hummus and garlic sauce (I didn't know how big/small the ones would be that came with the platter), as well as 2oz of Ali's Hot Sauce and an additional Kabab Halabi skewer. The chicken was cooked perfectly, great char but still super moist. the hot sauce was very spicy. The fresh herbs and vegetables on the side were such a great pairing. The fattoush was good, especially with the extra crispy pita chips on top. I do wish, however, that plain rice was an option, as I actually didn't need flavoured rice and would've preferred plain. My husband ordered a chicken taouk wrap with garlic, lettuce, onion, and tomato, plus batata hara and a Coke Zero. I've never had fateh before and also wanted to try it because of Hadia G.'s review. I got a single order. It had freshly cooked chickpeas with a mix of yogurt and tahini on a bead of pita chips and topped with pine nuts. This was by far my favourite and I could eat it ALL DAY. My husband and I were obsessed. OBSESSED! It was warm and delicious, creamy but not super rich, and very flavourful rather than just salty. I swear it should be illegal to eat this many pita chips, but we just couldn't stop. This is a bold statement, but I think it's one of the top vegetarian dishes I've ever had. It's on the breakfast menu but is available all day. I got knafeh for dessert, also for the first time. It was nice and cheesy, and I expected it to be sweet, but maybe just a little too sweet for me. Since this was my first time trying fateh, I can't compare it to anywhere else, but I would absolutely order it again and again!

    Came to Shawarma Palace after shawarma came highly recommended by a friend and generally this meal…read moredid not disappoint! The portion sizes are RIDICULOUS. For us modest appetites, this is easily 3 meals - easily! We ordered 2 plates and a sandwich for 4 people and still had enough leftovers for a small breakfast the morning after. My personal favorite was the mixed shawarma plate. I love how it comes with pita made specifically for Shawarma Palace, rice, potatoes, salad, pickled veg, and the meat. We also got the mixed kabob plate which featured tender beef but the chicken kabob was just a hair bit dry. The falafel sandwich was actually very dry and I would not recommend this. We also picked up some baklava for dessert after and I liked how it was just sweet enough! You can taste the pistachios and I thought the kiss of rose water was just enough to make the bite memorable!

    Happened upon this restaurant one evening. I saw a shawarma place on the north side of the street,…read moreso I prepared to turn off and go back, but here was another shawarma place. Quickly looked at Yelp and saw a fantastic number of reviews. So this place looked to be the real thing. I stepped up to the counter and ordered the beef shawarma platter to eat in. The guys just kept piling more and more on the platter. It was absolutely ridiculously huge by the time they were done. It was stacked with beef on top. As I paid, I asked for a take-out container. There was no hesitation. So obviously, this is the way they do it. I sat in the super clean dining area and started in on this massive dish. Then I saw a young family carry their plates to a table adjacent to me. And they all had these massive plates too. So after stuffing myself and hardly putting a dent in this pile of food I had to load up the take out clamshell. It would hardly close and weighed 2-3lbs (after filling myself). So if you want to buy one dish and eat a tasty healthy meal for a week. This is your place. It seemed very clean in the restaurant (signs say leave your dishes on the table - so they are obviously bussing the tables regularly). The washroom was also exceptionally clean. The staff that built my meat mountain were super friendly. I would certainly recommend this place!
