"It's a modest neighbourhood restaurant with some of the best Italian food in Ottawa at a reasonable price. A hidden gem. The lasagna is to die for. We visit a couple of times a month. The only mystery is why this place is not crowded all the time."
"A family restaurant, this has to be one of the most friendly places to eat in Ottawa. Pizza is made from scratch, not pre-prepared and the great taste reflects that. The value is excellent - if you order lasagna, it comes with a fresh side salad!"
"A double birthday celebration spectacular! Each dish from the appetizers to the mains were just out of this world with HUGE portions. Greeted by the warmth of a family establishment was amazing. We will gladly be back!"
"Wings are great, onion soup yummy, the best Lasagna in the city and don't forget the pizza - Delicious! Very nice personal service! Will recommend to everyone."

Our Story
At House of Lasagna, we've been bringing the heart of Italy to Ottawa for over 35 years. Founded in 1986 by Atef and Rose Ibrahim, our family-run restaurant on Merivale Road has become a beloved local institution known for authentic Italian comfort food and warm, welcoming service.
"Every dish we make at House of Lasagna is a reflection of our family values—fresh, simple, and made with love. I grew up in this kitchen, and today I cook with the same passion my parents started with in 1986. Whether it's your first visit or your hundredth, we want every bite to feel like home." - Chef Emad Ibrahim
From the very beginning, our mission has been simple: serve high-quality, home-style Italian dishes made with fresh ingredients, generous portions, and lots of love. Today, Chef Emad Ibrahim—Atef's eldest son—carries on that tradition with his siblings, crafting the lasagnas and pasta dishes Ottawa residents have grown up loving.
Voted Ottawa's Best Family Restaurant, House of Lasagna offers a taste of Italy in every bite, whether you're enjoying our signature Napolitana Lasagna, classic spaghetti and meatballs, or handcrafted pizzas.
