Good restaurant, nice vibe. A little loud at times but we went for Iftar. We ordered their ribs (very good), Chicken Parmesan (good), Fettuccine Alfredo (very good), the Hot Spot burger (good), and the Mushroom Mission burger (good). The overall experience was good. The staff were pleasant and friendly, there is a place to pray if you are breaking your fast there. Halal certified, and quick service. One more thing - they offered dates to break the fast on the table, and had a nice and clean prayer area. I have updated my review to add some additional details.

A nicer spot in Ottawa for a dinner or to celebrate an occasion. Food options are unique from most halal options out there, so thats a star in my books. Love their famous saffron sauce, sooo delicious and the portions are very generous. Decor is nice and the staff are professional and get the job done. Great spot! I will be back!
