What User likes about Shawarma's King:
Not much for atmosphere and a super cooled AC unit but the food is always good and plentiful and I have yet to finish a plate. The half BBQ chicken plate is big enough for two. View all feedback. What User doesn't like about Shawarma's King:
With all the places to choose from in Ottawa this one is surprisingly expensive costing ~15$ for a chicken sandwich plate with undercooked potatoes, salad was ok, wouldn't suggest it but the sandwich was pretty good. Good chicken, good size, quick delivery View all feedback.

There was literally no sauce on the shawarma and the chicken was dry. It was very disappointing, but the only good thing was the garlic potatoes.
