SemSem offers fantastic Arabic breakfast options in Ottawa, catering to both meat eaters and vegetarians. The menu features flavorful dishes like the Sojok Sandwich, Veggie Beans, Falafel Plate, and Labneh, served with fresh pita and a variety of pickled toppings. Customers praise the welcoming staff and delicious food, with the Falafel Plate and Veggie Beans being highly recommended.
The restaurant is located in a plaza with parking available, although it can be limited. SemSem provides a small but cozy atmosphere, where customers have enjoyed the warm and fresh falafel wraps and the accommodating staff who don't hover excessively. Recent reviews highlight the quality of the food, the reasonable prices, and the exceptional customer service provided by the staff, particularly Nahida, who is described as great, funny, nice, efficient, and always smiling.
