Situated in a very vibrant area. The ambiance was so nice. The food was so yum. Flavourful and very tender. I LOVED every bite of my plate. The only server, serving with a constant smile won our heart. The music, food and the outdoor shops was totally giving a Moroccan vibe. I never wanted to leave the place. Definitely a five star!

If you’re looking for authentic Moroccan flavors in Ottawa, Le Casablanca is an absolute must-visit. From the moment you walk in, the warm atmosphere and traditional decor transport you straight to Morocco. The food is rich, flavorful, and beautifully presented—every dish feels like a true cultural experience. Their tagines are slow-cooked to perfection, the couscous is light and aromatic, and the Moroccan mint tea is simply unforgettable. The service is attentive and welcoming, making you feel right at home. Whether you’re craving something new or missing the taste of authentic Moroccan cuisine, Le Casablanca is easily one of the best spots in Ottawa. Highly recommended!

I had the lamb shank couscous at Le Casablanca and it was amazing. The meat was super tender, the spices were just right, and the couscous with vegetables was full of flavor. The portion was generous and the service was warm and friendly. It really felt like a taste of Morocco in Ottawa. Highly recommend!

We stopped by for a quick lunch at La Casa Blanca. They were super busy, and we ordered the chicken shawarma and it was delicious. Full of flavour, a great big portion, and the cook/owner was very friendly while the staff was attentive. Definitely stop by their place if you’re looking for a great lunch spot in the touristy area.

Le Casablanca serves up a true feast on a plate. Even though they were super busy, the staff took good care of us, keeping things moving and making sure we had what we needed. The food itself was hearty and comforting, more home-style than refined, but that’s part of its charm, especially for a spot tucked into a market rather than a full sit-down restaurant. The lamb and chicken stood out as the best, juicy and tender, with sauces that brought everything together in a satisfying way. The kafta balls and merguez sausages added a nice variety, though overall the flavours weren’t as layered or bold as we’ve tried at other Moroccan spots. Still, the big portions, the mix of rice and couscous, and that homey style made it a meal that hit the spot perfectly before we headed back out to explore the city.
