Burgers Poutine

Review Summary

Reviews for Burgers + Frites describe a mixed picture, with some noting a short wait for what is described as mediocre and overpriced food, consisting of just a burger and a hot dog, while others report a brutal wait to receive a burger and fries and a price tag that feels high for the portion and quality. In a French note, the meat is good, the bread is not special, and the fries are too salty, with McDonalds fries often considered better. The Dave burger is highlighted, featuring BBQ sauce, fried onions and Monterey Jack cheese, with extra bacon; the bacon is described as life, but the patty is a bit dry and the BBQ sauce overpowers the cheese, while the fries are nice and crispy. Overall, the long or brutal wait together with a price near the total including taxes and tip leads some to question returning.View restaurant profile
