Across the reviews, Picks is praised for juicy flavorful burgers made with fresh ingredients, a wide range of customizable toppings, and a welcoming fast service that creates a warm hole in the wall vibe, with many noting good value and dependable quality, standout items like poutine and inventive options such as kimchi and Korean corn dogs, and a strong emphasis on takeout and an easy downtown Montreal location; some feedback mentions a recent change in ownership bringing mixed consistency, with praise for maintained high standards and friendly service but occasional misses like drier bread or order mix ups, yet the overall impression remains highly positive and many describe it as a reliable affordable favorite for burgers with good vibes.
Picks used to be the best smash burger in the Concordia ghetto, but now under new management, while very friendly, its a far cry from the original quality - over cooked fries, cheaper condiments, flavourless patties. RIP Picks
Amazing experience! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
The burgers were absolutely delicious-juicy, flavorful, & perfectly cooked. The ingredients tasted fresh & high quality, & the menu had great options to choose from. The staff was friendly & welcoming, & the service was quick. The atmosphere was also really nice & comfortable. Definitely one of the best burger spots I've been to. Highly recommend! 💓💓💓
Always a delicious experience! Picks is where I bring family & friends to guarantee a good dining experience. The staff is very kind & helpful, & the food always satisfies.
Such a wonderful little hole-in-the wall! They make wonderful hotdogs & their kogos (Korean corndogs) are not to be missed!
The staff is also so warm & friendly, it's always a pleasure to stop in & grab a bite
I ordered the picks steak burger.the meat was cooked to perfection & it was juicy inside.The bun was also fresh.Last but not least the owners couple was very friendly
New owners took on the exact same recipes, ingredients & friendly culture super rare to see nowadays when new management takes over but definitely still a 10/10 didn't even change the affordable prices too.

Delicious burger that puts 5 Guys to shame Love that you can pick the ingredients & craft the burger yourself. The fries were great too, salty & crispy & delicious. The owners were very friendly & delivered the food speedily, exactly as ordered. Would recommend!
