Overall, reviews for Bāgā highlight the smash burgers as the centerpiece, with juicy, flavorful patties that stay crisp at the edges and are enhanced by house made sauces and well balanced toppings. Fries are a frequent favorite, described as homemade and perfectly paired with the burgers, and the use of local ingredients adds to the appeal. The service is consistently warm, and the ambiance is welcoming and stylish, though a few note that the dining room layout on small tables can feel awkward. Some critiques mention a few missteps, such as the chicken or bacon being undercooked or the sauces being too tangy for some, and one diner felt a bit off after the meal possibly due to fasting. Overall, the place comes across as a strong and beloved discovery with vegetarian options praised and a clear emphasis on quality and local products, leaving many eager to return.
Bons smash burgers avec des aliments de qualité, frais fait devant vous. Une belle expérience. Je n'ai pas mangé sur place, j'ai pris pour emporter. Ils acceptent American Express.

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
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!
Excellente découverte sur Duluth! Les smash burgers sont très savoureux, avec des ingrédients locaux de grande qualité & une cuisson parfaite. L'ambiance minimaliste du lieu est vraiment agréable. Service super attentionné. Une adresse que je recommanderai sans hésiter à Montréal!

Délicieux burgers, dont un végé avec une boulette maison (pois chiches, carottes & cari) savoureuse! Tout est fait avec des produits locaux. Super terrasse à venir cet été dans la cour. Ma nouvelle place pref de smash burger en ville!
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.
Super expérience, j'ai adoré leur smash burger! Les ingrédients sont de qualité & en plus il y a des options de protéine pour tous ! J'adore 🤍 je conseille le smash burger au poulet trop bon & gourmand 😊
Excellent smash burger ! Je reviendrai tester la version végé qui a l'air vraiment bonne aussi. Les frites maison sont à tomber & l'endroit est magnifique en plus. Merci pour l'accueil, l'équipe est super sympathique :)
Belle découverte !
