What a pleasant find. My neighbors mainly eat halal meat so I ended up on their trek to this butcher shop after a Costco trip. The shop is spotless! Plenty of options for the cuts of meat with beef, mutton well represented here. White meat had plenty of options as well with a few types of marinate options. I also spotted plenty of cured meat as well (house made and factory produced). I ended up picking up some sujuck sausage (will report back later on the quality). OK selection of cheese, yogurt to boot as well. The prices are very reasonable (you have to still pay through your nose for the organic halal option from the other shop). They also have an option to call in ahead so the meat is prepped to your liking sans the wait. I associate the halal butcher options in Toronto to be borderline unacceptable due to the cleanliness and mad house feel for the popular spot. This is the way it ought to be as there is a big enough market.

Love love love this place. They have a wide selection of meats here. This ranges from fresh cut up raw chicken, marinated meats, cold cuts and others. The pre marinated meats are my go to here. Some of my favourites are tandoori, Shish tawook and shawarma. You can get these in leg, breast and skewers pieces. Both the spice level and salt and very appropriate. You can also buy pitas, spices and sauces here. I never leave the store without garlic sauce which is addictive! If you need more groceries then I would suggest you go to the bigger store as you can get more yummy Arabic goodies! These people are honest and will leave you satisfied.

Not impressed with experience today...felt like I was being price gouged. The food is great but when I ordered 2 steaks ticket price in meat counter they added more money and I said but that's not the ticket price they argued with 1 certain gentleman and gave me ticket price but "that gentleman wasn't happy" feeling like price gouging or taking advantage not cool as i am a great customer of this establishment! Wow I guess there's greedy rat's everywhere, I didn't expect it from paramount though!!!Especially since making big name with Hershey Centre now you're crooks at your butcher store ? Rethinking ever going there again...meat is good.....but wow to meat counter guy!

I come here once is a while to pick up some dry aged beef when I am in the mood to do a DYI steak dinner at home. I don't find many meat shops in the area carrying dry aged beef! There is quite a good selection of various meats there from ready to cook marinated beef to lamb and chicken. The staff here are very friendly and helpful in answering questions about your meat choices and selection.

Everything about this place is devine! The workers are friendly, smily and helpful. The decor is beautiful and invitingThe store is absolutely pristine and sparkly! The selection...it has everything from lamb chops yo marinated shish taouk...to sausages and cold cuts. It even has beef bacon. The quality is top notch. I got the montreal style turkey and it was just so good. As a nutritionist I shy away from cold cuts, but knowing all of the meat comes from his own slaughter house and everything is made in house, I know that it has alot less preservatives than other brands. Thats another thing. 100% halal not a single doubt in my mind. They raise and slaughter their own meat. Its fantastic! Price is also very comparable to the market. It is by no means more expensive or cheaper. Love it!

* Best butcher shop for me. I prefer halal prepared raw and cooked food. It's the healthiest choice for meat for me. * The meat looks very fresh and prime quality meat even for "not so much" of a meat eater like me. * I like the huge selection of cooked meat and sausages.

Paramount Butcher's is like a designer Halal meat store. It is absolutely stunning inside, super clean and pretty. There is complimentary Kahwa (Arabic cardamom coffee) which helps whilst you browse the huge variety of products they have to offer. Being married to a proud carnivore, we have to make a stop here whenever in Toronto. He comes prepared with his huge cooler box and is ready to go crazy inside. We love the deli meats - so many flavours to choose from. Some personal favourites are the sun-dried tomato Turkey, Montreal smoked meat, Cajun chicken and the super meaty Beef frankfurters! We have tried almost everything in store and though the prices are on the steeper side, it truly is amazing quality. They even vacuum seal the packs so you can freeze with ease! I also love the homemade burger patties (try the Soujouk beef burger for a spicy kick), the marinated short ribs (no words for this... just wow), the juicy lamb chops, the dry-aged beef steaks and the marinated beef stir-fry that is amazing for Philly cheese steak sandwiches! It definitely is the place for last minute barbeques or meals as their pre-marinated meats and chicken look and smell delicious. And best of all, it is Halal! For those who are unaware, the halal method of preparing meat is ensuring the animal has been fed & cared for properly prior to slaughter and the meat is extremely clean and hygienic. Highly recommend!

The quality of meat is superb. It's a bit on the expensive side but your tummy will thank you later.

Great place for raw and marinated meats like goat chicken and stuff…read moreWish they had more marinated stuff A lot of their tray in the freezer are empty with nothing in it Haven't tried their raw meats however their marinated chicken tasted really good with great taste When ever I want to make butter chicken or tikka masala pick up marinated chicken cook and add to my gravies Much better than most of the other marinated stores in the area

A-1 Meat Shop In…read moreterms of butchers and providers of unbelievable meat (including Halal meat) A-1 is at the top of my list. Ever since I first had a taste of their pre-marinated meat, I knew it would be a lifelong partnership between us. A-1 started in England and was very successful, so much so that they opened one location in Vancouver and then another. With continued success they opened up a location in Brampton and have been hard sorting peeps out since. From the shop I or my peers will order multiple pounds of the following and proceed to BBQ it via indirect heat for upwards of 35-45min. This ensures that the chicken remains tender juicy and not dry and burnt/charred. Yellow Chicken Wings: This is my favourite marinade at A-1, it is stunningly sweet spicy and savory. Many a time have I eaten multiple pounds of these wings in one sitting, they are so good once you have one you can not stop. This meat is worthy of converting vegetarians. Red Chicken: You may be thinking tandoori but it's not exactly tandoori. I would say it definitely has some tandoori influence, but is definitely A-1's proprietary marinade. Effin' delicious. This chicken is typically available in drumstick, legs, breasts and wings. Red Fish: The fish they use is White Fish and it has the same rub as the chicken above. This item is borderline unreal and if you follow the indirect heating procedure you will ensure you get the most out of this fish. The key is to not overcook it and move it around too much, or the fish will break apart and become dry. Other than the above A-1 also has regular chicken, lamb and other meats for sale. The Brampton location typically has their Red Chicken drumsticks in a rotisserie throughout the day to satisfy patrons who can't wait until they get home to cook the chicken. Order a few pieces from the rotisserie and they will hit it up with garama masala, lemon and massive chunks of onion...Heavenly. The dudes that work at A-1 are very nice people and patient with you if you're a first timer. The prices are very reasonable for the quality and flavour of the meat, the storefront and atmosphere is approachable and clean, and their website is solid with great pics, pricing and even recipes. Definitely my favourite BBQ resource.
