Been in Mtl since 2017, but I didn't know this place existed until my fiancé told me where he usually gets his kogo, & i am glad that he introduced this place to me😎😉💜 Food: Oh Em Geeh, yes for sure tons of fats, but hey, it's what I came for, lol. Love the burger. You get to choose what you want in your burger. Deep fried potato Kogo 😋 👌 *raawwr* it was goood & good value =) Atmosphere: a diner experience, don't expect too much 💜😘❤️ Service was good, I think this is a family business, & it's well run 😀

The burger was okay, a bit undercooked with spring mix instead of lettuce. The bun was really tasty, fluffy & toasted nicely. I got the fries & sauce on the side, they were crispy & delicious. The sauce was very good too! I would go back to try a wrap & poutine next time for sure.

Burger: 9.5/10 - Staff: 10/10 - Place: very nice local small burger shop ambience.

Details: very, very, good burger! I went for the double burger with both smoked gouda & mozzarella cheese. For the sauces I added chipotle mayo & ketchup. & I added fried onions & mushroom, lettuce, tomato, regular onions & pickles. It is very good. Price is ok.

I would advise them to place the bun over the heat a little to make it crispy & to make the burger meet slightly fattier & more tender. & to make the taste of the fire smokiness more visible in the meet. With the those modifications it would the best burger in Montreal. But it is definitely one of the best burger places.
