Burger correct & bon assaisonnement des frites.
Pour le prix payé & la qualité des produits annoncée, le résultat est en dessous des attentes.
Pour moi, il existe de meilleures options (MDMH, Cantine Chez Simon, Rosie Burger, Patty Slap) à prix inférieurs ou équivalents.
Très bonne expérience de Smash burger,
Nous sommes venus à 2 adultes + 2 enfants & la cuisine a proposé de tout adapter aux goûts des enfants. Option végétarienne possible, & service très agréable. Nous nous sommes régalés!
Juste un mini bémol sur la salle & les sièges qui manquent un peu de chaleur & de confort.
Excellent sur toute la ligne. Un burger créatif, goûteux & juteux comme on les aime. Mention spéciale à Antoine qui fût fort sympathique. Très hâte d'y retourner & goûter aux autres options. Bravo 🙌

Slightly pricier, but by far the best smash burger I have had in Montreal. Absolutely worth the extra ~2 dollars for the quality of the ingredients & care in preparation. Super interesting local drink options too (recommend the sparkling matcha drink).
I hear the confusion over the awkward height of the tables, but I like that the tables can be moved around easily & find the configuration to be fun & playful. Looking forward to experiencing the outdoor space in the summer!
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.
My new go-to spot for smash burgers! The staff is friendly, & they use local ingredients. The food is fresh & tasty - the meat is perfectly cooked, & the fries are just as good. They also have a veggie burger option. Plus, it's a kid-friendly place, which makes it perfect for a casual family meal.
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
