New people took over & they are doing things differently
you can tell the change is obvious & now the place is mediocre
Fell off massively.
This used to be my favorite burger place possibly of all time & now i wouldnt even go there if im starving
breaks my heart
-Patty tastes like it seasoned completely differently
-Honey mustard is tasteless (used to be one of their best sauces)
-Stuff like tomatoes & lettuce used to be very fresh. The change in quality too big to get over it
You can do whatever you want. This is your restaurant.
But instead of getting upset when someone points this out, you should actually fix the ingredients & match the quality if you want to truly claim you that'have deep respect for the legacy of Picks.'
I am probably not one of your typical the run clientele- baby boomer, but I really enjoyed my burger & fries. I loved the personlized list of condiments I was able to add to my burger, what a great idea.The young staff owners were wonderful & polite. Sorry, but I do not see much of this type of friendly personilized service especially to us baby boomers. Like many of you said this is a hidden gem. Please support these young entrepreneurs because there are not too many that take the plunge in the restaurant business.
I would give them a 4.5 stars not the 4 stars I posted because 5 stars would be considered exceptional food, service & location.
My one & only suggestion: take it easy on the sauce, the taste was great but a little too plentiful.
Good luck & I will be back with my millenium kids!
If there was 0 starts I would put 0 they were laughing at my brother with a speech impediment that I thought was really sad I don't appreciate that I think they should all be fired they didn't have my favourite sauce these place was really horrible I recommend not going to pick up or dine in.

Best burger in Montreal. Quality meat for the best price I have seen out there, along with delicious sauces & soft yet crunchy buns are undeniably good!
I used to go weekly when the owners 10 years ago & I was in college (very understanding prices) & nowadays it still has the same tasty food & warm ambiance. Highly recommend it
I used to love Picks; it was hands-down the best burger joint in downtown. Seeing the elderly Korean couple every time gave me such a sense of familiarity & comfort.
However, I noticed the ownership has changed. The moment I opened the door, I was hit by a heavy smell of grease. They didn't seem to turn on the exhaust fan at all during the entire process, & the smoke just kept getting thicker-it was quite unpleasant to be surrounded by such an oily atmosphere. While the shop looked decent in terms of cleanliness, the food was a total disappointment. The burgers taste completely different now. We ordered & paid for extra toppings & sauces, but they were missing from our order entirely. The patties have lost that signature juiciness I used to love.
It's such a shame to lose such a great spot. I won't be coming back.
Très petit restaurant, excellent acceuil de la dame à la caisse. Prends le temps de tout m'expliquer le menu. J'opte pour le double patties, avec une poutine en accompagnement. La poutine, j'aime quand il y a beaucoup de sauce & là, il n'y avait presque rien. Le hamburger, sur lequel je fondait tout mes espoirs...assez décevant. Pas le pire,mais il y a mieux. Sauce chipotle maison, trop de salade.
Came to try because of the raving reviews. Burger meat was frozen & cooked till it's hard. Special sauces were not felt in the sandwich. Regular poutine. For $20 you could get a better deal & quality of food in McDonald's or A&W. Food: 3, Service: 5 Atmosphere: none.
One of the best burgers I've had recently! Picks offers an excellent selection of toppings & sauces. I am a kimchi fan & was excited to see it as a topping option, & it really delivered - it was fresh & delicious.
I stumbled across this unassuming hole-in-the-wall gem while looking for some local restaurants to try.
The place is small- it only has 4 tables & needs some TLC, but that's part of the charm. But most importantly, what they absolutely do right is the food!
I ordered a double burger with a fried egg, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, & chipotle sauce & it was exactly what a great burger should be: simple, but done very well & with fresh ingredients. They even offer kimchi on a burger, which I will try when I come back soon.
Their pricing is very fair & the service is fast. The lovely elderly couple running Picks has owned this little spot for about 17 years (if I remember correctly), & they have many loyal customers. After my first visit, they can definitely add me to that list!
