Paramount Middle Eastern Kitchen

Chicken Shawarma

Rotisserie-carved chicken packed into a grilled wrap with garlic sauce and pickled turnip — the clearest expression of what this kitchen does well

Hummus

Smooth, house-made hummus with a generous drizzle of olive oil, served with warm pita — better than the standard Toronto average

Falafel Wrap

Crispy, herb-packed falafel in a wrap with tahini and fresh vegetables — a dependable vegetarian option

Mixed Grill Platter

A spread of kafta, chicken, and beef/lamb kebabs over rice — the right move for groups or when you want to sample the grill program

Manakish

Lebanese flatbread topped with za'atar and olive oil, baked to order — an underrated order that regulars know to get

Fattoush

Crisp romaine and tomato salad with fried pita shards and a tangy sumac-lemon dressing — holds its own as a side

Baklava

Standard honey-and-pistachio baklava — sweet and fine, but not a reason to visit on its own
