" While I really enjoyed the ambience and the beautiful decor of Jericho, I found the food to be slightly lacking. I ordered the chicken kebab plate, which was good but didn't blow me away. The service was fantastic — the owner took his time to explain each dish with passion. I might have just picked the wrong dish, so I'm open to trying other options next time. Overall, a nice spot to relax and enjoy some art. " (*Curated Review*)

" This charming restaurant caught my eye with its stunning artwork and warm ambiance. The owner is incredibly sweet too! The Falafel was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, just how it should be. While the atmosphere was excellent, I think they could improve on staffing as there was a bit of a wait for our food. I would definitely still recommend this place to anyone looking to enjoy good Mediterranean food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Jericho is an artistic haven with decent food. I've had better Mediterranean meals, but the charm and owner truly make it special. I recommend trying the shawarma wrap as it was the highlight of my meal. The atmosphere is fantastic; I just wish the food quality matched it better. Wouldn't mind giving it another go! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a fantastic dinner at Jericho! The service was attentive, and the owner’s friendly nature made it feel like home. I tried the grilled chicken, and it was cooked to perfection — tender and juicy. The ambiance is perfect for a date night. It’s a little gem in the city, and I can’t recommend it enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" Jericho is definitely a place to check out for authentic Middle Eastern food. I had the vegetarian combo and it was so flavorful. The overall atmosphere is like a gallery with all the amazing artwork. Service was a bit slower, but the owner is so friendly and patient. I will be back to try more dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" I love the ambiance and food at Jericho! The owner is so passionate about his work and it shows. The kafta was seasoned perfectly and had a wonderful texture. The decor gives such a unique dining experience that blends a gallery with a restaurant feel. If you're in Ottawa, you have to stop by and give it a try! " (*Curated Review*)

" Jericho is an enchanting experience from the moment you walk in! The decor bursts with color, and each piece of art has a story behind it. I tried the Lamb Kafta and it was undeniably flavorful and perfectly cooked. The owner, a true artist and chef, makes you feel like family. The hospitality is unmatched and something I truly appreciated. I can't wait to return and sample their vegetarian options! " (*Curated Review*)
