The owner is such a gracious host, you feel right at home. We stop here every time we’re in Ottawa just for the butter chicken and fresh baked naan.

We usually pick up samosas for lunch at Shafali Bazaar because we love the vegetarian and meat options for their flavours. However, today I picked up 3 vegetarian, two chicken, and a beef and they were subpar to say the least. It seems like they were made yesterday and the dough was tough and overdone. The filling for the meat was dried out and lacked flavour. The potato filling was watery and did not have any flavouring at all. Finally, the size of the samosas were drastically smaller than usual. I picked them up at 12:30pm at the busiest time of their service and they should have been freshly made. I most likely will not return to what was once one of our favourite lunchtime spots in the Byward Market. For something that costs over 5 dollars for each, we expect better quality of food preparation, taste, and freshness for food served in the Market. It seemed like it was not the same cooks as usual today at the Bazaar.

Stumbled across this place last October while browsing the market and their food saved me as I was in desperate need of home style flavours. Had to go back when I found myself in Ottawa again this month. The couple is super sweet, and it’s easy to see why they remain very busy with regulars and new visitors alike.

I heard about the chicken tikka wrap and had to try it. I loved the fact that the naan is freshly baked in front of you when you place your order. Although the chicken was a bit bland to my taste, overall, the wrap was delicious and refreshing. The owner and his wife were really nice. The place is little but cozy. I would definitely come back when we'll come to Ottawa again.

A little restaurant with great meals.
The owner and his wife are the kind of people that does everything to make you feel at home with their outstanding service and warm attitude. They are proud of their work, instilling that on their delicious food.
I took a picture with them. Hopefully I’ll have the chance to visit them again in the future.
