Meal takeaway

😐 I got the chicken and kefta. Rice was pretty good, cabbage salad was amazing. Fattoush was extremely refreshing and tasted great also. Garlic sauce was on point. I have to say, I enjoyed almost everything from this dish besides the kefta as it was hard as a rock and the chicken seemed kind of stale...

    I got the chicken and kefta. Rice was pretty good, cabbage salad was amazing. Fattoush was extremely refreshing and tasted great also. Garlic sauce was on point. I have to say, I enjoyed almost everything from this dish besides the kefta as it was hard as a rock and the chicken seemed kind of stale. I did order before closing so I will give this place another chance and will update my review. I can see this place an easily a 5 star for me if it weren't for the meat.

    Very, very disappointed with Spice Kitchen. Myself and my friends decided to try a new restaurant and Spice Kitchen looked and sounded delicious. We were incredibly unhappy with just about everything we ordered. Here's what we experienced: - The price you pay vs the amount of food you get is absurd. The chopped chicken plate came with 5 small cubes of chicken and small side dishes. You could easily make yourself an entire dinner for several people for the cost you pay for a plate. - We paid an upgrade fee to upsize a fattoush salad from a side to a regular. There was one singular tiny piece of fried pita on top of maybe 1 cup of chopped vegetables. For $8, I was not impressed. The size definitely looked like a side, so who know if they just kept the upgrade fee for themselves and still served us a side portion. No way that could have been a regular size. - The fries. This was by far the WORST thing served to us. The fries were soggy and a deep brown, nearly black hue and tasted absolutely awful - like an old deep fryer that hadn't been changed in months. On top of that, they were so salty and just generally tasted off. Due to the obvious lack of cleanliness and care, my husband now has food poisoning and has been sick all morning. Save your money and go somewhere else. Don't be fooled by the photos like we were. Judging by the last couple reviews posted a few days before mine (1 and 2 star), it's clear this is a common issue.

    Every bite was delicious, you can tell they care about their food. The salad's vegetables were delicious and crunchy. The chicken tastes like genuine smoke. Wow. Will order again.

    There is magic in this gourmet food! Every bite is packed with flavour and my household is now addicted to it. The baba ganoush and the kefta kabob are my favorite! This cook knows what he’s doing and you can tell the quality of the ingredients is a top priority. Price is very reasonable and portions are generous. I cannot recommend this restaurant highly enough!

    Wow. Just...wow. Delicious chicken, perfectly cooked rice and fresh salads. Started with the chip dip sampler; hot fresh chips and yummy dips. Also reasonable as hell pricing. Will definitely go back for more. Thanks Spice Kitchen !!!!

    Not comparable to other Lebanese street food offerings, this place has it's own spin on the usual. Recommend you try their desserts also.

    Honestly, the best Lebanese food in town! You can tell everything is fresh and the flavour is very distinct. You will not be disappointed. They are amazing at taking in your requests and making sure you enjoy your meal. Good portions and OMG the best garlic sauce I have ever had!

    Excellent Lebanese food. Very easy to order on their website for pick up or delivery. Generous portions and the farm I sauce is fantastic. Get the roasted broccoli with sesame sauce!! Very tasty. One of our new favourite take out spots.

    I wish I took a picture of my food to show you, but I ate it way too fast. My girlfriend and I were looking around for some good takeout for a quick dinner when we stumbled upon Spice Kitchen, we both never heard about it before but it had some pretty good reviews so why not try it out. I have to tell you, that was some of the most flavourful chicken and beef I've had in a long time. The customer service was great, the guy who brought the food out to me seemed extremely humble and polite and the food honestly blew me away. If you're looking for a seriously good takeout spot, you found it. I will definitely be returning!

    Ordered the chopped chicken dish and roasted broccoli and cauliflower. Everything had great flavor and ingredients were very fresh. Very generous serving size as well. Will definitely return to this spot.

    We really enjoyed all our meals from Spice Kitchen. We had the chopped chicken dinner, kefta, fried pita chips and garlic sauce, fattoush salad and rice. Some of us had the crispy chicken sandwiches which were very tasty. Price is on point. The garlic asiago fries and the Atayef dessert were amazing additions to our meal. We will definitely order this delicious Lebanese food again and again. Friendly staff too.

    Absolutely a take out gem! We ordered the chopped chicken, the kefta , the grilled salmon and dip & chips. The food was amazing. It tasted homemade. The whole meal was just perfect. The grilled salmon with sesame sauce melted in my mouth. Cooked to perfection! The baba ghanouj was the best eggplant dish we have ever had. Just delightful. It was well worth the 20 minutes ride from Orleans to pick up the order. We would definitely recommend Spice Kitchen!!

    Ordered from Spice Kitchen for first time yesterday. The food was Awesome … Generous portions, very fresh and nicely presented. It is evident that the chef takes pride in his business and pleasing his customers is paramount . I highly recommend Spice Kitchen.

    Quality of food = premium. The best tasting and freshness, hands down. Quantity of food = VERY generous. They even offer 2 FOR 1 on some of their best food and still give large portions. That’s unheard of! Taste = as someone who eats out pretty much daily sometimes 2-3 times (I’m in logistics on the road a lot) Spice Kitchen, without a doubt, is in my Top 3 spots to order food from. Overall = the quality, the quantity, the delicious taste, along with the value… it’s a 10/10 (or on Google a 5/5) star restaurant. Try it and see for yourself! PS I wrote this as I wait for my two crispy chicken burgers with their homemade garlic Sauce on them mmmm

    I have ordered from Spice Kitchen on at least 20 occasions since it opened and the food is ALWAYS delicious. Recommended it to several friends who raved about it as well. See some reviews here complaining of skimpy portions, most likely food delivery drivers stealing portions (not kidding 😎). I always pick up my food and the portions are plentiful. Try the new crispy chicken burger, really tasty and for dessert the Atavef is a must have !

    I was never a salad-eater but this place changed my mind! I enjoy the salad soo much that I kept always came back for more. Not to mentioned their rice and meat was outstanding and priced very well for the portion. If you live nearby, highly recommend skipping the delivery service and pick up yourself for the discount and support them (so they don't have to pay those outrageous platform/service fees!)

    One of our favorite spots in Ottawa! We order at least once a month and the quality is always top notch. The cabbage salad is amazing and the chicken is super tender. Makes for great leftovers for the next day too ☺️ definitely would recommend ordering from the Spice team!

    Best Lebanese food experience in Ottawa. Not your standard chicken or Kefta platters… extra spices and herbs sets this food apart. Good portions, and chips and dip platter are a great side, coming with 3 tasty sauces for dipping. Hard to find but owner/cook came out to my car and extremely friendly and service-oriented. Don’t hesitate to order from here.

    I don't think I'll eat here again because they use very fatty chicken thigh meat and it often just tastes like eating perfectly season pieces of fat, rather than chicken. I'll still give 5 stars because it's well seasoned, the rice is delicious, and the garlic sauce is addicting. The dessert with fried chips and pistachios is so good, too. I just wish the chicken wasn't so fatty.

    Food is good. Portions are expected. Side salads were surprisingly filling and very well dressed.
