Steer away from Mister Steer. Went there for lunch (take out). I was well greeted by a lovely gentleman & that is where it all went to crap. The lady behind the counter was super curt & impatient with me. She got into an argument with her male server & proceed to push me away to another terminal. I can appreciate that it can be a stressful job but it seemed to be the way she interacts with people. The server was kind but she forgot my pickles. Apart for the fries, the burger was miniscule. If you are to charge a premium, you should really treat your clients better. The coupon that I had for the UTE discount will go in the garbage because I would feel very guilty about sending someone there.

?THE FINAL VERDICT
Mister Steer is a definitive staple for anyone looking for a no-nonsense, high-quality burger in a friendly atmosphere. With its incredible speed & perfectly executed comfort food, it is absolutely a great place to go & well worth a return visit.
The Steer burger was trés bien, merci! It was a great place to try some local food. Poor Montreal is heavily under construction & these guys are right on the main torn-up strip. But definitely worth stopping in if you're up in that area!
Mister Steer pour moi c'est une histoire familiale. Mes grands-parents & mes parents y vont depuis leurs jeunesse. & l'histoire continue avec moi. J'adore le Steer burger & le Suzie Q! & quand je veux bien finir le tout, je prends un milkshake au chocolat.
Cependant je vais être franc, le service n'est plus comme avant. Je trouve le personnel moins accueillant & le dernier serveur que j'ai eu avait énormément de difficultés à me parler en français & me répondait en anglais.
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.
