Jakis Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 Derienzos on beech st in little Italy. Best sandwichs ever and might be what I miss most about the city lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meggo Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 those are some good sammies. but remember they're cash only!my favourite shawarmas are from shawarma city at bank and lisgar, and also now i've been enjoying the ones at shawarma palace on rideau close to charlotte. wings i don't know, i'm a recent convert to wings... a lot of people like colonnade pizza. i think georgie's is the place where you can get gravy pizza. eek!

AD Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 Civic Shawarma down by Lansdowne Park is excellent. And across the street is Kettleman's Bagels. House of Georgie Sorento's is indeed the gravy pizza joint - One block east of Colonnade Pizza, just 3 doors west of Elgin Street on Gilmour.I have to give a shout out to Calabria Pizza at Bell and Gladstone. Delicious. There's no reason to go to this part of Centretown sadly. But the pizza is good.DiRienzo's off Preston at Beech is indeed a delicious deli, as is Luciano's, further north on Preston.Where are you based out of while in town?

AD Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 If you're staying across the street from the same place that Meggo is talking about at Rideau and Charlotte, then you absolutely must go to Yre's Chicken BBQ at Charlotte and Rideau - best chicken in the city, hands down.

For late night fucked up pizza bronson pizza. they are open until 4 am and taste greatBest Wings? Royal oaks wings are pretty damn tasty and hugeBest Chicken Shawarma? would have to be the swarma station in the south end near the airport, bank and huntclub, that shit is nasty. Best something else? if you want to spend some cash go to Murray street bistro. you can order a pigs head. good burger place is Chez Lucien Click for Phone Numbertel: 613-241-3533137 Murray StOttawa, On and the manx has some great foodFamous Ottawa what. if your into vinyl records just say so and i will give you a list. peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ms.Huxtable Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 Good call on Yres AD. I had forgotten about that place.I like Horn of Africa in that area as well. (on Rideau). Cheap and delicious food, cheap and boozy wine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AD Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 Also in that area is a top-3 burger place, Chez Lucien. A pub / restuarant that serves amazing burgers. Off Dalhousie at Clarence (?). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Wish Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 For a pizza alternative, I love Pavarazzi's. Order the classic with the herbed multi grain crust....Local Heroes for wings of the Buffalo variety, Clocktower if you think wings should be covered in everything except Red Hot.

SaggyBalls Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 Any Local Heroes sports bar and grille will make you delicious chicken wings as big as a toddler's arm.What are your shawarma standards, c-towns?

Northern Wish Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 If anyone is still checking this thread- can anyone speak to The Works?I've been there twice and both times had the most amazing burger served to me on a crappy D'Italiano grocery store bun.Just wondering if this is normal, or if they had just run out of real buns both tmes I have been there?

jonyak Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 I have a strong opposition to the works.as I found my burger mediocre at best. and I really can't stand paying $30 for a burger and fries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
