My favourite from their menu is the 1927 burger.
I feel like they've improved on their fries & their burgers are amazing. If you're craving a good burger, you won't be disappointed.
Prices are on par & service is fine. It can get noisy when you go during peak hours though

I ordered a burger & upgraded my fries to a poutine, & the portion size was fantastic-definitely filling. The poutine was delicious, with rich gravy, & just the right amount of cheese curds. For dessert, I tried the carrot cake on the recommendation of friends, & it did not disappoint! It was moist, flavorful, & had just the right amount of sweetness. The service was attentive & friendly, making the experience even more enjoyable. The only minor issue was that the burger patty was a bit bland, but it was still cooked well.

Poppyseed Bagel style bun on a burger? Strange combo. Cheesecake was excellent though.

Their portions are good & the staff is friendly, however if you get food to go or for takeout, you have to specify what condiments you want on the burger as they don't apply them in the kitchen, they give them as packets. The burgers on the menu were described as dressed with said condiments, & now here I am on the road with a bacon cheeseburger without sauce.. I will still eat there again, but still..

The restaurant is very clean & has generally a relaxed atmosphere that is suitable for families with children. There is an assortment of food options that are well suited for kids & adults. The poutine & burger was delicious. The hot chicken sandwich was mediocre. We didn't have any desserts but they looked amazing. The bathrooms are very clean.

Overpriced. Beware of substitutions. We used to come here quite often, but took a break when we moved to a different hood. Went back tonight with friends & were disappointed. The burgers tasted like they were frozen first, bland & not juicy. My child's kids meal of 2 chicken nuggets & veggies somehow cost $15, without dessert. I get inflation, but at least don't skimp on portions, flavor & quality. Serve was excellent as usual.

I ate at this restaurant a couple of times & needless to say I do not recommend this place as the food is mediocre & the service is downright poor, You can make any food item on their menu at home & it would taste 20 times better.I ordered an onion soup & a veggie burger. The onion soup tasted good but it was cold & the veggie burger was bland, it tasted like the frozen veggie burgers sold at metro stores for 4$ stuffed between a burger bun, I tried adding ketchup, mustard & even the coleslaw salad that came with the plate to add some flavour (& it was still bad). As for the service, it was just so bad. The waitress & even the manager were rude. When we tried to pay the bill, the shady manager did not take a liking to the tip he deserved & tried to make us believe that we needed to pay an extra charge. He wanted to ask for a bigger tip ( which he certainly did not deserve because he was very rude) by beating around the bush saying that " there's an extra charge". We gave him a bigger tip because I did not want to cause a scene & straight out not give him any tips at all. This manager needs to get a better paying job if he shamelessly tries to scam people like that. That was just desperate.
