Chez Fatima is hands down a hidden gem in the Hull region — and truly a must-visit. It’s the only Moroccan restaurant in the area, and it delivers every single time with incredible consistency, flavour, and warmth. We recently celebrated a birthday here, and the experience was flawless from start to finish. The staff were attentive and kind, the service was well-organized, and the atmosphere felt both festive and cozy.
Every dish was bursting with rich, authentic flavour — the kind of food that stays with you long after the meal and leaves you dreaming about going back for seconds. Whether it’s your first time trying Moroccan cuisine or you’re a longtime fan, Chez Fatima will impress you. This place is truly special — a beautiful family-run spot that takes pride in every plate and that has been open for so many years. Highly, highly recommend!
Délicieux buffet à chaque visite. Merci à Fatima et à son équipe pour votre service chaleureux.
I was hesitant at first due to the messy-looking plates in the photos—and mine was even messier! lol :))) But the food was delicious, and the cozy, old-fashioned vibe made it worth it. The waiter was kind and served Moroccan tea with a special touch. I recommend the soup and meatballs.
This excellent buffet presented so much variety and delicious flavor. Each dish was wonderfully spiced and cooked. I enjoyed the chicken, meatballs and fish, but the lamb really stood out. So tender and succulent. The service and atmosphere were very friendly and inviting. They have a well deserved pride in what they do. I anticipate coming back many times.
Oh my god!!! The lamb is outa this world!
Amazing buffet, with many vegetarians and non vegetarian options! All home-made! First time trying Moroccan food but definitely will be back.
Moroccan food is delicious and Chez Fatima prepares authentic dishes the right way. All the dishes I tried from the buffet were tasty, flavorsome and spiced to the appropriate level. The selection was diverse allowing for anyone to find something they like, and the service was friendly and attentive. The atmosphere was also welcoming and cosy.
The food was acceptable (not that good), good vibes, one thing that I didn’t like, when we wanted to pay, the guy there charged us 18% tips without asking us, I was going to tip him good from my heart, but when he did it for himself I didn’t like that, that’s stealing…. I will never go back.
Fatima is a wonderful cook and business owner. I loved the food and the atmosphere. She is so welcoming and friendly. There were options for main course and dessert and starter! I didn’t eat vegetarian food but I believe some of the options were vegetarian.
Amazing! Wish I’d tried this place out sooner.
Went during the day and there was just one lady working all alone… and putting on a show nonetheless! She was extraordinarily friendly and bubbly, coming over to chat several times sharing stories about the food and culture etc.
Food was delicious. Everything so tender and spiced + cooked perfectly. Soup and tea both fantastic too. 10/10!

Delecious food, owner hospitality and generousity . You feel like you are part of family
The food and service was amazing. The owner is so loving and serves with such kindness. Tried Moroccan cuisine for the first time and being vegetarian this restaurant has pretty good options.
Highly recommend trying vegetarian tajine and couscous
Amazing food, Incredible hospitality. One of the best place I have been in Ottawa. The owner Fatima is such a sweet lady and we had the best time.
Great dining experience !
I visited the place alone, and it offered a wide variety of food options in the buffet. The food was good, with different flavors to choose from, and the service was great. Just be aware that the buffet fee does not include drinks, so if you are offered coffee, it will be charged separately..
