For how much we enjoyed our experiences at Paramount, it's surprising that we have only been there twice. I could blame it on the constant line ups, but I'd have to clarify that the food is worth the wait.
On our first visit, we had a very nice feast for four on the second floor. On the second, we picked up take out to enjoy in sunny Yonge-Dundas Square. Despite the place being packed to the brim both times, we found the service to be efficient and friendly both times.
The mixed barbecue plate was more food than one person should consume. Although we were smart enough to decide to share this, we also couldn't resist ordering an additional tomato onion pizza and creamy babaghanouj. The fresh pitas were puffed right up and served hot to the touch.
Regardless of whether you're eating in or taking out, don't miss out on the desserts sold by the pound in the back. With so many cookies, cakes, and kinds of baklava to choose from, you'll want to try some of everything.
