If the service wasn't so bad, this would have been a four star review for the food, which was the only reason we've come again - and that's for takeout only, never again for sit down. But now they even screw up takeout orders - missing shish taouk in a meat combo order, giving fries instead of rice - really basic stuff.
Unfortunately, the quality of the food is starting to decline as well, specifically the meat - chicken is dried out, kifta (ground beef with spices) is made with lower quality ground beef, pita is tough and too doughy.
Add on top of that excessively high pricing and this place is in danger of slipping into utter mediocrity.
Management needs to step in and get this place back on track - Paramount was the only good Middle Eastern restaurant in North York.
