I'm a fan of Lebanese food. Had 1 friend growing up who was Lebanese and her family always had a best food.
I think the concept of Paramount is great and something that we need in Irvine. Prices are high but we had a huge family dinner and they more than accommodated for us. Food service was fast.
Pros:
*Jajik was really good, lots of garlic
*Lamb kebab also really good.
*Bread...I am not a bread person but I could eat this bread all day.
*Hummus is the bomb.
*Family platter: everything on it was good.
Cons:
*A bit pricey but you have to consider that this is casual fine dining.
*I think they could work on the presentation of the platter. The lettuce was very wilted and sliced tomatoes seemed old.
*Rice was not good...it needed something.
