Entering this location of Paramount Fine Foods Middle Eastern Kitchen in Markham, the appetizing aromas of BBQ grilled meats wafted through the air tantalizing the senses. The interior of the restaurant was spacious and comfortable. We received a warm welcome by the amiably attentive staff from the moment we entered. We placed our order immediately - falafels, hummus, labneh, moutabbal, and arnabeet - and didn't have to wait long for our food to arrive. We were given two freshly baked steaming hot homemade pitas which came straight from their stone oven. The food here is very good. The falafels were deliciously made with ground chickpeas, super seasoned with fresh herbs. They were scrumptiously salty, fried to a crispy golden brown, topped with sesame seeds and served with a tahini dip. Next was the fried cauliflower which was tossed in a tahini-garlic sauce and drizzled with copious amounts of sour lemon. The sour lemony taste of the arnabeet served as a counterpoint to the salty flavour of the crunchy falafels. Served with fresh baked pita bread came the delightful hummus, labneh, moutabbal dips. The moutabbal was exceptionally tasty made with fire roasted eggplant, blended with tahini-garlic topped with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and jewelled with a sprinkling of pomegranate seeds. The hummus was an excellently smooth blend of chickpeas and creamy tahini. A solid choice. The labneh pressed yogurt mixed with garlic, drizzled with olive oil and topped with zaatar seasoning of thyme and sesame seeds. Their dessert section appealed to me, particularly the Lebanese Kinafe boat made from shredded vermicelli filled with cheese baked and drizzled with sweet rose blossom syrup, served in a freshly baked sesame pie. I am already planning what to try out for my next visit - the Paramount Special Drink of mango/strawberry juice and chopped tropical fresh fruits with strawberry, kiwi, pineapple, topped with almonds, pistachios, ashta cream and honey. Amazing restaurant for delicious middle eastern food, clean comfortable dining atmosphere and excellent service. Thankful that they are open late until 10 PM on weekdays and until 11 PM on weekends.

I wasn't sure what to expect given the mixed reviews but decided to try anyway. We came in during Ramadan right after sun down so it wasn't busy yet. We had called prior to ask if they took reservations and they said not unless it was for a very big group. I was familiar with the franchise and knew what I wanted to order. We got a chicken shawarma wrap, a mixed combo entree and a beef hummus. The beef hummus was as I expected. Good amount of meat and super flavorful. Really enjoyed it with the pita. The chicken wrap was a little disappointing - it was a bit dry and a bit smaller than expected. The mixed combo grill tasted great - with kafta, beef and chicken. It did feel a little overpriced at nearly $30 but it was tasty. The service was so so. It was very comfortable seating as it wasn't busy. We were checked on maybe once and it was hard to flag someone down to get a refill of water (which didn't happen). Overall was a decent experience and would come back.

Food used to be good but after Covid they got so cheap with their portion sizes and it's so expensive there's no point in eating here anymore. Also asked for 2 garlic sauce and was ignored..... used to be good service but after Covid they suck horribly now. Stop being so cheap with your rice portions...

For 21.99 before tax, the portions are way too small. The beef and chicken was also try too. Surprisingly, they gave more rice and less salad. Service was also in the slower side. Overall I would avoid

Called Paramount 48 prior to arrange a business luncheon for about 90 people. Manal was very helpful to help decide on what dishes to select. We ordered a variety of dishes, such as Beef Kafta and chicken skewers, spicy potatoes, Falafel, sandwich trays with chicken, beef and falafel shawarma, wraps (Kafta and Chicken Tawouk). We were provided trays of rice, fattoush salad, garlic sauce, tahini, mixed pickles, hot sauce, hummus and pita bread. Food was delivered on time. They even supplied the plates, napkins and utensils. Everyone was happy and satisfied. No complaints! Will definitely order from this location again for another future event!

I was looking forward to dining here having heard nothing but positive things re Paramount Fine Foods from Hamilton to Toronto. Unfortunately, the staff are not qualified to deal with the public. A certain finesse is missing, the lack of which is detrimental to any hospitality industry. As I said, just this location on Highway 7 in Woodbridge.

4.5 Paramount is an amazing spot for any meal of the day! They have an extensive breakfast menu, brunch, lunch, afternoon snack and dinner - literally anything you could possibly think of. Paramount has middle eastern cuisine, and a few fusion dishes like their take on poutine and quesadillas. Came here for brunch on a weekend and thoroughly enjoyed my visit. The service was efficient and attentive, and the food was fresh and tasty. The ambience was nice, and I was seated immediately. My group ordered a variety of dishes so I got to try a lot of things. The manakeesh is amazing - you definitely have to get this (I got zaatar manakeesh which is like an Arabic pesto of sorts). I also tried the chicken shawarma fries (like a poutine) and a bit of a shawarma wrap. Honestly everything here is pretty good, you can't go wrong with anything you order. The portion sizes are also pretty good, and quite filling. You can really taste the freshness and quality of the food. It's a nice spot for a more upscale take to middle eastern cuisine. I'll definitely be back to Paramount soon!

I've been to their Sheppard Avenue location several times and have always enjoyed the food but questioned the process of ordering at the counter and prepaying for the meal. This location has full table service. Yay! Did they all change? I hope so. Our server was very patient and attentive while my friend and I waited for a third companion to join us. He was friendly and engaging but lacked the finesse of a seasoned server. Very good effort though. We ended up ordering Falafel, two Mixed Grill Plates (chicken beef, kafta), a lentil soup, and a Mezza Plate (hummus, moutabbal, and tabbouleh). It was served with their signature puffy pita. As expected, everything tasted really good and the portions were generous (enough to take some home). We finished our meal with some cappuccino and baklawa. A good finish.

I've always heard good things about Paramount but never tried it cause I didn't think it was much diff from other cheaper Mediterranean chains. I happened to have an Ubereats coupon and decided on the chicken main plate. It came up to almost $30 including all the fees etc. Although on the description it didn't mention An included salad, usually other chicken plates include salad. To my disappointment, it actually arrived without a salad. There was only chicken, rice, pickles, garlic sauce and a pita bread! This meal was 20 bucks without the fees and tip. Such a rip offffff. So not worth it!

I didn't even notice that this place was here until we were parking by the shoppers and just noticed it. Too lazy to figure out where to eat dinner, we decided to just give this place a go. We've been trying a lot more middle eastern, Mediterranean cuisine as a family and have found a few favourite spots. This place was great, but definitely there are areas to improve in terms of their food options. As a new restaurant, I think they'll get there in time. Food alone would bring it to 3 star, but the amazing service is what pumps it up to a big ol' 4! Hopefully management will read this because I want them to know, Marva, our waitress, did an amazing job. She was there when we needed her, checked up on us, and made sure we enjoyed our meal. She was happy to get feedback and was very helpful to explain the menu options to us as we were not very familiar with some of the dishes. She's very friendly and if this is the level of hospitality they have, I think you can't lose coming here. We started off with a puffy steaming bread. I forget what it's called but we've had it before at other places. This was fresh, not burned, and soft on the inside with that hard crust on the outside. However, it was very flavourless. I think it's best if you ordered some type of dips to accompany it. My dad ordered a lamb dinner to be cooked to medium rare, but it was almost well done and quite hard. He had give everyone a piece before biting in so by the time we found out, we already eaten half of it among all of us. The waitress, however, still offered to redo the dish, which I thought was very kind of her. Flavours were alright, but the fries on the side could have been a bit less soggy. Actually, all our fries were a bit soggy which is something they could probably fix easily. :) The fattoush salad was very fresh and I liked the variety of vegetables in the dish. It was a bit over dressed and I found it to be a bit wet. The flavours were quite nice though :) My mom and I shared the Tabliyeh Saj Chicken Shawarma as per the recommendation of our fantastic waitress, Marva. I think I would try a different protein next time too, but this one was amazing!! There's that delicious crunch in the outer side of the saj, and you've got the stuffed insides and a garlic dip accompaniment. I loved the pickles as well which just helped cut through the savory flavours. I think this is a very well balanced dish and I would happily return for more. Over all, we had a great time here and enjoyed our meal. Marva, was amazing!! She really did a fantastic job. With our lamb being cooked improperly, she offered to have it redone. We refused since we were almost done anyway :) But she kindly gifted us a box of sweet treats. Variations of baklawa sweets and we thoroughly enjoyed those. Give this place a try and just let the staff know if there's anything you don't like or think could improve. They've got a great attitude. I'd love to see this place stick around the neighborhood.
