well seasoned beef. great brioche bun. sharp cheddar. distinct flavours amongst all the ingredients. not overcooked or too greasy or burnt from the smash style cooking on the thin parts. lettuce length & width chopped for an easy bite that doesn't drag out other ingredient. great.
I'm really torn, but maybe i'm a harsh critic.
The ingredients are INCREDIBLE. Every single piece of the burger is absolutely insane, the beef, the aged cheddar, the sauce, the buns, etc. etc.
However, I think it's too much? The combination of the pickles, the sauce, the fruit ketchup, the aged cheddar all in one bite, i feel like no ingredient gets to shine because of how flavourful every single ingredient is. The cheddar was a bit too sharp & cut out the flavour of the beef, the pickles are a bit too sour & don't let the ketchup shine. The buns are insane though, keep those 100%
I think the move is to order the beef burger without some of these ingredients. I never thought i'd say this but the cheese is too flavourful for the burger! The cheddar is so strong it really hides the flavour of the beef, I tried everything separately dissecting my burger & it was so good.
Anyways, maybe i'm super picky, for the price & the quality of the ingredients i just wish everything had some more… breathing room.
Gotta try it again with some stuff removed, overall though very satisfying.
Amazing hamburger! We tried the lobster & beef smashed burger & it was great! It comes with a house sauce & a fruit based ketchup, both fun & tasty! Highly recommend this place if you are craving a good burger 🍔

A perfect new option for you to relax'just right'.
This isn't just a place to eat burgers; it's more like a community living room, with an elegant yet unpretentious atmosphere, perfect for savoring your meal at a leisurely pace.
All ingredients are sourced from Quebec. The beef patties are incredibly tender, paired with a rich tomato sauce, each bite absorbing the essence of tomato, 5 yrs cheddar cheese, & gravy.
First thing: the burger is not drowned in sauce. No overcompensating, no mess for the sake of mess. It doesn't rely on sauce the way a lot of places do, which means the meat actually has to carry its weight-& it does. Very well prepared, with something going on that we couldn't quite identify. Maybe it's the seasoning, maybe the technique, maybe just solid quality beef. Whatever it is, it's good.
They also have a gluten-free bun option, which is always a nice touch.
We paired it with a @messorembracitorium beer, which, as expected, was a good idea. & we had to have the cookies-massive ones from @paquebot_cafe, which we already love, so that's an easy win.
The seating is slightly confusing. The tables are low-like, tea-room low-which makes eating a burger feel like a bit of a posture exercise. Not exactly built for this type of food.
Overall, it's a simple smash burger. Nothing life-changing, not trying to reinvent the wheel-but solid. & in an area without many nearby smash burger options, it's definitely a decent spot to have in the rotation
Very good burgers & friendly staff. All the ingredients are Canadian, & the menu is simple, which I really like. We had both the chicken & beef burgers, & they were equally good.
The fries are great too. I usually add salt, but these were already perfectly seasoned with what seems like a house spice blend. The sauce served with the fries is also excellent. They add capers, which makes it stand out.
I think it's incredible value, especially considering the passion behind what is essentially a burger & fries concept.
As for the seating, I initially found the low tables a bit unusual, but it ended up creating a relaxed, almost at-home feeling, like having a burger with friends.
Overall, I really enjoyed it & would definitely recommend it. Great job.
B?g? delivers on quality with incredibly fresh ingredients-you can really taste the difference. We tried both the Beef Smash & the Chicken Smash; while both were delicious, the beef definitely takes the lead. The fries are also perfectly'on point.'
At $14 a burger, the price is fair for a single meal burger, though it does add up quickly if you're buying for a family of six!
