About Shawarma Palace
If there's one name that comes up in every Ottawa shawarma conversation, it's Shawarma Palace. Since 1996, this family-run spot has been serving up some of the city's most consistent shawarma. The Rideau Street location is the original, and it still draws lineups on weekend nights.
Ottawa has more shawarma shops per capita than almost any city in Canada, and Shawarma Palace is the reason a lot of people say that.
What to Order
- Chicken Shawarma Plate — Tender chicken, garlic potatoes, hummus, salad, pickled turnip, and garlic sauce. The plate is the full experience.
- Beef Shawarma Wrap — Tightly rolled, packed with meat, and covered in garlic sauce.
- Garlic Potatoes — Order them on the side even if your plate comes with them. They're that good.
