Dic Ann's Hamburgers Montreal Restaurant: Menu, Reviews & Reserve (2026)
BurgersPoutine
Dominic "Dick" Potenza was born in West Virginia and grew up in Utica, New York. He became well known in the Rochester - Buffalo area during the 40’s as a head-waiter in the supper-club type restaurants of the era. It was at one of these supper-clubs that he met his future wife, jazz accordionist Ann Collecchia, who performed using the stage name of Ann Russell. Together, they envisioned a fast food restaurant that would serve an original style hamburger with their own special sauce. After much thought, this original style hamburger took the form of a toasted bun containing a thin patty that would cook quickly. After they modified and combined two recipes that they brought with them from Rochester, Dick and Ann developed their famous hot sauce.

Review Summary

Dic Ann's Hamburgers is described across reviews as a nostalgic, no-frills spot that serves simple, well-made burgers with fresh ingredients and a flavor that feels authentic and timeless. The atmosphere is repeatedly called a classic diner vibe, with a time-honored approach that fans say still stands out amid fast food trends, and the burgers are frequently labeled some of the best in Montreal. Fries are often highlighted as a great accompaniment, while poutine quality varies and can be hit or miss. The original location is noted for being clean and well kept, with limited seating that makes it feel like a dine-in or takeout favorite. Some comments mention service at the counter as not perfect and note concerns about franchising and training, though the core product and the iconic burger experience remain the main draw.

Hamburger légèrement épicé.um goût unique

This place just oozes nostalgia. It's a nothing place really. But it's their kosher beef hamburgers as thin as a pancake with burger buns squished as thin as a pancake or less, piles with minced onions & their special sauce. I can't explain it just tastes soooo good. & the pricing is totally not worth it at all. But it's so unique & tasty so I go & get my fill once in a blue moon & pay too much money for a baby sized burger lol. Their fries are like match sticks & I don't like them as the also don't retain heat well & by the time you get them to the table they are nearly room temp. Service is nothing to talk about as it's good. But all in all every location is consistent & awesome.

Love this place, location, staff, service & authentic burgers. Thin smash burger type with a unique sauce. Hotdogs are quite good too, prepared quite different from the usual steamed style & on toasted buns. Thin crispy french fries too.
