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.
As others have stated, run by an older couple who seem nice. Very hole in the wall. I got there 15 minutes to closing & ordered a poutine. They took my order, but didn't offer any toppings (even after I'd asked) - just the standard cheese & sauce. It was affordable - I think 7CAD. Didn't see it on the menu. The poutine, however, was too salty. I avoided the sauce as much as possible & just ate the cheese & fries. I still could barely finish just that. People seem to love the burgers, but poutine is definitely not the move here.
Picks is operated by a lovely older couple out of a tiny, smokey storefront with three small tables inside. It epitomizes a hole-in-the-wall. The burger patty was cooked perfectly although was a tad overworked, it was elevated by a high quality roll & fresh, quality toppings. The poutine was generously topped with curds & a typical sauce, the fries were frozen but crisp, fluffy inside & seasoned well. I would definitely return in the future as I felt it was greater than the sum of it's parts.
Local spot with great food! I can't say more of the owners & the food they create. Burgers were great! Fries cooked to perfection. I am coming back for sure. If you are in the area, definitely give them a try, you will not be disappointed.
Amazing!! I love their poutine & burgers. They are good quality, tasty & for a very good price. The owners are super nice & get the orders ready very fast
A small, quaint shop with two elderly running it. Their burger portion is big, & the buns are nice! Crispy & has a good chew. You're able to customize the burger & what sauces you want! Don't forget to add your veggie toppings that come with your burger. Surprisingly, you can add coleslaw. Their kimchi is also tasty & refreshing.
It's amazing I can order for pick up from Google maps, with discounts. & not even in 20 minutes the order is ready. & I love the burgers. The prices are very fair & affordable. Love this place
A MUST TRY. I cannot express how DELICIOUS the burgers here are. Every ingredient is exquisite & the burgers are cooked perfectly!! I have never eaten a tastier burger before in my life. I will be returning very often.
Just a mom & pop making the Best burger in Montreal. You dont go here for ambience. You go when you just want a good burger that tastes consistently great over the years. No fancy b.s. I recommend the bulgogi steak patty.

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 😀
Aucune idée de l'état & ambiance des lieux, j'ai fais livrer via Doordash. J'ai pris le pick Burger que tu garnis à ton goût. Très bon burger. Le seul hic c'est que j'ai sélectionné laitue dans les choix en m'attendant à de la belle iceberg croquantes c'était une bonne poignée de mélange printanier ramolli par la chaleur de la boulette. J'ai tout enlevé ça après 3 bouchées. Ça n'y avait pas sa place. Je ne sais pas s'ils mettent toujours autant de mayo mais je vous suggère de la demander à part à moins que vous aimez que votre burger goûte juste la mayo. La boulette était froide mais ça ce n'est pas la faute du resto. On s'y attend avec doordash vu qu'ils n'utilisent aucune outils pour garder la nourriture au chaud.
Picks will always have a place in my heart. They're so unique with such high quality food for the best prices..... Always consistent. For me, it's the best burger joint in Montreal. The best.
