Garlic King has gone down hill just spent $70+ dollar of food for a family plater they have grown so cheap that they weight out the meat I have never seen sucks a place do such a thing 99% of Shawarma restaurants just give you a really nice portions was fees 8 people so I had to buy and extra bag of pitas because there only 6 in a pack where all other place would have just throw in a bag for free also had to buy an extra 250gm of chicken to make there was enough to feed there 8 people after all the staff insisted that it would not be enough to feed everyone. Well you lost us as a customer Garlic King been going here for 16years

Wonderfully kitsch restaurant with genuine gluten free dishes. The tabuleh is divine, the chicken shawarma juicy with thick and quality cuts, and the customer service absolutely stellar. The cashier gentleman has serious rizz. The food is fresh and homestyle - not sure exactly how to explain it but some shawarma places taste “corporate.” This place tastes like it was made with love. I got a large-sized platter and it had enough in it for four meals. On first glance it appears to have less meat than other places but it’s because it’s not thinly shaved. The meat chunks here are dense and the portion is generous, despite some complaints in reviews.

The only thing I can say is edible is the tabbouleh; the shawarma chicken platter is a very small portion and not tasty at all.

Update: We ended up throwing away most of the food because it was simply inedible. Not only was the food disappointing, but the service was also terrible. The owner’s response to complaints is unprofessional, and based on their reply, it seems they even prefer their food served poorly.

I have been going to Garlic King for years for their gluten free chicken shawarma and it never disappoints. The people who work there take the food allergy very seriously and have separate areas and ensure no contamination.
Tonight, I went and was excited to try the new GF poutine that was advertised. I was sooooo disappointed. It was almost cold and the fries looked like they had been fried to a crunch. I am hoping it was just a bad night and it was really busy.

Food is always good here! Prices are good, quality is amazing, and I highly reccomend it.

I usually get takeout from here, but eat in is also good. I always look forward to coming to Ottawa/Orleans and knowing this is just up the road.

The meat was quite dry, and when I asked the server for sauce, she acknowledged my request but unfortunately didn’t add any at all. The only highlight of my visit was the friendly older gentleman at the cash register; he truly made a positive impression. I appreciate his service! ❤️

2nd time grabbing a chicken shawarma today in the last 6 months....poutine is absolute no go, don't do it it's discusting (come on, they just shouldn't offer that option at a shawarma place to start with), garlic potato was half uncooked, the noodles just tossed in garlic sauce is a no go.....high five to the guy behind the counter tho, good guy and the chicken is always good & fresh. I'll be back perhaps in a year.
