Kara Mia - Ottawa is a delightful Italian restaurant nestled at 1910 St. Laurent Blvd, offering a unique Halal twist to traditional Italian cuisine. Customers rave about the impeccable quality and taste of the dishes, particularly the pastas, which are said to "melt in the mouth." The inviting ambiance and warm service add to the dining experience, making it a welcoming spot for food lovers.

Reviewers like Farida Faqiri have expressed enthusiasm for the diverse menu, celebrating the availability of Halal options in Ottawa. This fusion of cultures is noted by Sk Md Ashikur Rahman, who commends the creative blend of flavors and the restaurant's attentive staff.

While most dishes receive high praise, the steak preparation has faced some criticism, with a notable mention of it being overcooked on occasion. However, diners like Ali Bhimani found the peppercorn steak perfectly cooked and enjoyed the flavorful BBQ ribs. The saffron burger and innovative sauces also come highly recommended.

The quality and the taste of foods here are perfect! Costumer serves is good and the pastas always melt in the mouth. One thing I find that needs to improve is the steaks , we had always problem with the steaks being over cooked...

Went on a public holiday, they were packed but we had a reservation. Service was slower, but our server came to explain and apologize when we were seated. Overall, the food was delicious. The peppercorn steak was cooked to our request and the BBQ ribs were flavourful and well cooked. However, the shrimp was a bit bland and dry. The Saffron Burger was amazing and the sauce was exquisite.

From the moment you step inside, the warm ambiance and inviting aromas welcome you, setting the stage for a memorable gastronomic journey. The attentive staff ensures that every need is met with a genuine smile, adding to the overall charm of the establishment. As I perused the menu, I was intrigued by the innovative fusion of Halal and Italian dishes, each offering a tantalizing glimpse into a world of culinary creativity. From classic Italian pasta to succulent Halal meats, there was something to satisfy every palate.

We have been going to Kara Mia's for over a decade, first in the GTA and now in Ottawa. We recently hosted a 45 person family event there, and it was executed wonderfully by the staff at this location. I would highly recommend it. HMA halal certified with tasty sauces!

Nice atmosphere. Great portions for the price point. Heavy on the sauce, but good flavor. Recommend getting sauce on the side. I will visit this place again and recommend it to others. BTW it's halal and a great place for steak lovers.
