We came here for dinner one evening, we had 2 starters & 2 main meals. The French onion soup was good, the wings were very disappointing, 4 small wings for $13, seems like daylight robbery to me. A few other people around me also ordered chicken wings & were disappointed. The chicken burger was good, the slaw was very well flavoured & a good portion & the smash burger was ok, very expensive for a small burger. The service was good, however the pricing for what you get could be improved for certain items. Would recommend you come here to eat if you don't mind paying over the odds for your food.

In my opinion - one of the best burger place in montreal. I always have their basic burger (Mr. Personnality). The bun & beef are so delicious & make amazing basis for all of their burgers. The only time I didn't enjoy my meal was when I ordered chicken instead of beef & the chicken was a bit fatty & chewy which I didn't like. But the waitress went ahead & got me a beef patty instead which was amazing! A must-order is their Jack Daniel wings, the most delicious wings I've ever had, the sauce was insanely delicious. I've never had a bad time here, everything is so delicious & the service is always good!

I've been to Burger Bar a few times in the past & always had a great experience however I was very disappointed yesterday.

For one, it was F1 weekend. Of course, we were not expecting it to be five star service seeing as it was intensely packed & noisy outside on Crescent. We entered the restaurant which was not as full as we thought it would be. The hostess asked how many people we were & my boyfriend replied 4. She immediately shook her head & said she would not have any room at all (which was odd because we did not see many people waiting upstairs or on the terrace) My boyfriend kindly replied that he did not mind waiting (this was probably due to our great past experiences there that we were willing to wait). The hostess was VERY cold & just looked at us & told us it would be a 45 minute wait (as though it would turn us off & we would leave because it was 9:15PM). We moved over to the bar area. We were seated in 15 mins so it did not take 45 minutes.

Our food was good. The spicy Jack Daniel's wings were not spicy at all. My Quebecois burger was delicious. We finished our meal & the restaurant was not so packed (there was 2 free tables near us). My boyfriend & I were super excited to have a dessert. We kindly asked the waitress for a dessert menu & she said we could not have dessert on F1 weekend. I didn't think anything of it until 3 women near us ordered the fried Mars bar. I was extremely angry. I explained to the waitress that it was very unfair to lie to us & she used some lame excuse & said that their waitress happened to be the manager & the manager had told the staff earlier that night no desserts allowed & she was essentially breaking her own rules.

She asked if I wanted to order dessert. I did not want to stay there any longer. We were ready to pay for dessert & a few more rounds. We took our money & tip somewhere it was much more welcomed. I was very disappointed & still am. I will not be going back because I feel like the staff was just annoyed with us. They were not friendly & were willing to let us go & due to bad service they just lost a regular.

I would highly recommend a change of staff. The bartenders however were extremely friendly (two women with glasses, one with shorter hair) they were great! The rest just treated us horribly.
