Crispy Bite (Laheeb Grill & Shawarma previously)

At Crispy Bite in Ottawa, diners celebrate the authentic Syrian-style shawarma that sets this spot apart. The juicy, perfectly seasoned chicken shawarma wrapped in thin saj bread receives consistent praise, along with generous portions and standout items like the broasted chicken and knafeh dessert. Staff members like Akram and Mohammed Sabbah are frequently commended for their warm, attentive service. However, some visitors note inconsistent service quality and occasional longer wait times during peak hours. When the kitchen and service align, Crispy Bite delivers some of Ottawa's most memorable Middle Eastern flavors, making it worth the visit for those seeking authentic shawarma with a Syrian twist.
