At Mister Steer, making first-rate burgers is our business. We use only fresh ingredients in our restaurant, only our ice cream is frozen! Hand shaped patties from the finest kosher beef, deliciously spiced, our burgers are char grilled to a state of perfection.
Overall, Mister Steer is described as a nostalgic Montreal icon, with the Steerburger often praised as the best burger in town and the Suzie Q fries along with the Tex Mex poutine receiving strong praise, while prices and drink costs are noted as high by several diners. Some reviews mention excellent service and quick, friendly dining experiences, but others point to inconsistent quality or overpricing for fast casual fare, including takeout issues. The atmosphere is frequently described as retro and family friendly, making it a reliable comfort spot for burgers and classic sides despite mixed value notes.
Les burgers étaient vraiment délicieux !! La viande était bonne, & les'frittes' très croustillantes & bonnes.
La serveuse était très sympa & drôle.
Bon restaurant, très bonne surprise !
Stopped by for a basket of fries & a drink with friends.
As usual the fries was a large portion, enough for three adults to snack on with a drink. Curly Q fries were crisp & perfectly flavoured, not greasy & you could not smell anything - which is what you want because it means the restaurant is changing their frying oil properly.
I have eaten here hundreds of time & loved their all beef, no filler hamburger. This is the only restaurant in Montreal from the beginning, that would form its meat into a weighed ball & then press on it to form the shape of a burger. You could almost say that Mr Steer was the first smash burger joint in the city - only that they don't squish it so much that it's a crispy burned dead piece of meat lol. Their burger is done just right, similarly to how What a Burger does.
I also loved that they sell Rootbeer & they serve it in a chilled mug. Tasted to good.
When asking people what the best burger in Montreal is, you're likely to get a bunch of more modern & trendy burger places & a lot of those restaurants do have amazing burgers but Mr. Steer has the single best one: The Hero.
I've never tasted a meat patty so good that you could have it by itself & still be satisfied. It's super thick & always cooked to perfection. EVERY BITE is heaven. The'suzie Q' fries you get alongside it are amazing as well.
If you're also gonna get a poutine, their'Tex-Mex' is one of the best I've ever had. The only bad thing I have to say is that the price is too much. 22$ for a poutine is unacceptable.
I'd be in trouble if I lived near this place... 10/10

To start, the owner of'67 years' met us at the door. We briefly delved into some history & how Ken Dryden was a regular there every home game, 40X/year. Many of the Habs have eaten there. No doubt, as Mr. Steer has'the best' burgers in all of Montreal!! Dont miss this spot when ib Montreal!!
This was the only disappointing food I've have encountered in Montreal yet, I have never left a negative review before & our server was so sweet & kind, I would not recommend the steer burger. I paid $35 & a $5 tip for just a $10 poutine as the burger was the worst burger I've ever had, they offered a replacement burger but I lost my appetite after the first one was so terrible.

I always loved Mister Steer but my last burger (today august 2025) i ask for a medium cook for takeout & received a really uncook meat. So much it was almost raw. I coudn't return cuz i was in between job. I was really disappointed for a 14$ burger only. So sad for a super burger usually! Don't think i will return again.
Je suis retournée manger à ce restaurant que j'affectionnais à l'époque. J'ai été très déçue. Le burger qu'on m'a servi était mal formé quoique son goût reste aussi authentique. Les patates torsadées étaient trop cuites, toute sèches. 18,50$ + le pourboire + la taxe, on s'en sort autour de 25$. Ça fait cher le plat de fast food.
Our food was good. Salad was just lettuce & shredded carrot, was not offered a dressing. Our waitress, when asked of the onion rings were thin or thick cut, had no idea what I was asking. My husband had a burger & it was good, but more bun than meat. I just had curly fries, which were very good.

We were seated quickly. Service was great.
The food was nice, especially the burger meat. The fries were good & different from other places, but not seasoned or barely.
With construction work happening on the street, it s best to use public transit or go straight to an indoor parking if using car.
I've been going to this resto for 40 years & the burgers are as good as ever! My first time having a poutine & it was enjoyable. Love this place, its my favorite burger place. Here's to another 40 years!
