Shawarma De Roza

I moved away from Ottawa a few months back but I always come back and when I do, I visit Shawarma da Roza. I am always greeted by the lovely lady who knows my order as soon as I walk in. It’s like home cooking. Juicy chicken or beef, zesty hummus, rich garlic sauce and garden salad. And baklava is included. This is the best value for $ 13. You will not leave hungry.

I have had take out from Shawarma De Roza a handful of times and the customer service has always brought the hubby and I back, but then we remember how salty the food is.
The woman who runs this restaurant is very pleasant; always goes out of her way to make customers feel like they are at home, and usually always gives free baklava with orders, and portions are huge! With that being said, of course customers are going to love supporting this business.
While the food is not bad, it is overly salty and vinegary for my personal liking. My hubby who will devour pretty much anything could not finish his falafel platter; the falafel was dry and the garlic sauce was vinegary and the turnips were very salty.
I am a turnip lover, and always ask for extra, extra, extraaa turnips on my wraps, but these turnips were the saltiest I have ever had. I must have consumed at least 7 glasses of water afterwards, and still felt dehydrated!
Another thing I did not really enjoy was that if you ask for everything on your wraps, be prepared for black and green olives, which I love, just not on a falafel wrap! I do like that tabbouleh is included on wraps! :)
Overall, food is relatively fresh (minus the dry falafel we received), customer service is bang on, but salty-​ness of the food leaves me to venture to other shawarma restaurants.
