this place is generally good - its had its issues but overall usually good
But I got the meat Maqla recently and it fell really short - i want to make my comments cuz I just noticed a 1 star review from a month ago that also brought up the Meat Maqla
What I read in the description was something wow.. what I was served was something my child couldve put together.
Funny enough, other than the taste being bland and the quality of the meat sucking, it was extremely hot and i couldnt make sense of it .
- after reading the other review about the Maqla it now makes sense
There are things on the menu that are cheaply prepared and heavily priced.
If your a regular here, stick to what you know on the menu
Im upset cuz my bill is never cheap at Semsem
And the fact that another customer left a negative review about the same product and nothing was done to solve the issue for future customers, means this place is no longer about the fine dining breakfast experience - its now solely about funding pockets
I really shouldve been that customer and just requested it to be sent back to the kitchen without touching it a second time.. instead I cheaply ate as much of it as I could as to not waste food and the damn price
DO BETTER !
Every day and every time, SemSem is the best restaurant for breakfast in Ottawa.😍

One of the best foods I’ve ever had that is Arabic. In fact, these guys can make a really good Karak chai as well.
Wael Was amazing one of the best men’s I’ve ever met. If I had a daughter, I’d get him married to him.
But honestly, if you have a chance, and come and drop by one of the best foods of all time
