Reviews for Box'd by Paramount in Toronto, ON
I like the self-serve ordering kiosks. Food is delicious but took too long to get after ordering and it?s expensive for the... amount you get. Portion sizes should be at least 50% larger. For example the fatoush salad for $14 ($16 with tax) should bedouble the size for the price charged. Read more
First and foremost, not having to deal with a person and just getting to eat, a solid win already. The food itself was great for... the most part. Pita chips were very crispy, hummus tasted great (although the spicy wasn?t spicy at all?) and you?ve got a fewchoices to choose from. It?s like a build your plate type of style, think chipotle, except you do it through a screen andreceive your order like you like in a spaceship. Worth experiencing just for that alone! Read more
Great place, got hot dinner for 19 cad with HST. Good amount of food for the price, freshly cooked. Strong covid policies where... they sanitize the screens right after you touch them as well as you get your food without being in direct contact with thestaff. Menu is pretty broad for the size of the restaurant. The only issue I see is that it's location is a bit hidden and myfriend and I were not sure if it is actually a restaurant. Staff member that interacted with us was friendly and helpful. Iwould recommend this place. Read more
Box'd by Paramount was OKAY at most.. *ordered via Uber Eats from Yorkville location* EXPERIENCE: I ordered 3 of the" Box's... hot's" with different sides/ and hummus types with each plate with the same protein (Striplioin). and 1 berry smoothie. I wascalled by the restaurant and told they only had regular hummus (when they're supposed to have 5 available) and they only had theone type of carb (lentil rice) when there are supposed to have another 2 available (which we ordered). Nevertheless, we wereforced to go with with what was available.. FOOD QUALITY/QUANTITY: -Steak was tough with no sear, but it was medium which iswhy I gave a star- it was almost as if it was cooked sous-vide and the poor steak didn't even smell a grill/ pan. In terms ofportion, this was fit for a hungry 10 year old after soccer practice. Something like 4 pieces of 2cm thick slices. Hummus wasregular, salad was fresh, and rice was good, but again, stingy with the portions.. OVERALL: Faikh must be commended for theconcept of the restaurant, but I personally would not order again. you'd be way better off in terms of quality, price, andquantity to order from you local Kebob Shop.

Just visited a new Box?d paramount place and had wedge salad. Tasted amazing, staff were amazingly nice. Also tried a truffle... humus, never saw it anywhere before. Will definitely come back Read more
Had a great experience in this amazing place! The staff is very friendly and always ready to help Tip: its better to order hot... box than salad cause it?s much more affordable (16-18 $) and includes salad, hummus , meat and pita! Read more
A very interesting new concept restaurant from a trusted brand, especially beneficial in pandemic times. However value for money... is extremely low with the two featured meals costing $40. The protein serving is minimal at a $5.99 addition and the hummus andchips are slapped in the box with the rest of the meal, instead of a being the expected appetizer. It was delicious and the foodwas good quality which is the only reason it gets three stars. With the only clientele at the moment being locals instead of themore affluent financial district patrons, I just don't see the cost flying for most of us. Simply not worth the gimmicks. Read more
My partner and I spontaneously went into this establishment not knowing what to expect (Boxd didn?t look like a food... restaurant). We were surprised with the fast, great quality, and good tasting food. This is a very underrated spot. Highlyrecommend! Read more
