Review Summary

Bāgā is highly regarded for its exceptional smash burgers and commitment to fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Many patrons praise the quality of the beef, chicken, and veggie options, frequently highlighting the house-made sauces and perfectly seasoned fries. The service is consistently described as friendly, welcoming, and passionate, contributing to an overall positive dining experience. While the food and staff receive high marks, several reviews mention that the seating arrangement, specifically the low tables, can be uncomfortable or impractical for dining. Despite some minor inconsistencies and mixed opinions on the interior configuration, the restaurant is widely considered a top destination in Montreal for a high-quality, flavorful burger.

good burger (tested beef & chicken ones), I liked that they sourced most of the ingredients from around here. Fresh taste. Would go back

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!

Owner took time to explain where the ingredients were sourced. Amazing quality & hot take, the chicken burger is a sleeper @B?g?. GET IT !

This spot shines with its fresh ingredients & perfectly executed smash beef burger-juicy, flavorful, & crisp around the edges. The smash chicken is a delicious surprise, unlike anything I've tried before. Friendly service rounds out the experience. Highly recommended!

Tried this fairly new spot in Montreal after seeing really promising reviews. I ordered the smash chicken, the smash burger, & fries.

Starting with the positives: the fries were great - could've been a touch crispier, but overall solid. The dipping sauce was a little tangy for my taste, but I actually ended up enjoying it.

The smash chicken… I'm still not sure how I feel about smashed chicken as a concept. Flavor-wise, it just didn't hit for me & felt slightly off. The smash burger was similar - if it weren't for the sauce, it would've been pretty meh. The bacon also wasn't cooked to my liking. I know it's a thicker cut (so it won't be super crispy), but it still felt undercooked & that threw me off.

I'll also mention that I didn't feel great after the meal. I had been fasting for about a day & a half beforehand, so that could've contributed, but it's still worth noting.

Overall, it wasn't terrible, but it didn't wow me either. I usually try a place twice before making a final decision, so I'll probably give it another shot. There's definitely potential here.
