QDC Burger draws high praise for its meat quality, a fresh bun, and tasty toppings, with one review calling it the best burger in Canada and another praising Wagyu level flavor and the overall experience. House fries are very good, though the price is noted as being high and value can be questionable. Not every note is glowing, as several reviews call the burger not bad but not great and some mention small portions for the price. A few diners have nothing negative to say and feel it is worth the trip. Overall, the sentiment centers on superb meat and a premium burger experience, with price concerns that vary by diner.
If you're looking for a burger that treats indulgence as a sport, the Surf & Turf (O & Terre) from QDC Burger is the heavyweight champion of Montreal's Mile End. Born from the DNA of the legendary La Queue de Cheval steakhouse, this isn't just a sandwich; it's a high-end steak dinner compressed between two halves of a brioche bun.
?The star of the show is the'steak-cut' patty, a custom blend of USDA Prime & Canadian AAA beef that carries a deep, dry-aged richness rarely found in a casual setting. Perched on top are jumbo Cajun-spiced shrimp, which offer a snappy, buttery contrast to the melt-in-your-mouth beef. The flavor profile is rounded out by a hit of heat from the spices, tempered by the sweetness of caramelized onions & the bright acidity of their signature tomato chutney.
?Fresh arugula adds a necessary peppery crunch to cut through the decadence, while a generous layer of garlic aioli ensures every bite is lush. The bun, glossy, toasted, & studded with black & white sesame seeds-does a heroic job of holding together a burger that is structurally ambitious. It's messy, it's expensive, & it's unashamedly over-the-top, usually served alongside a mountain of their dark, hand-cut steakhouse fries. For anyone in Montreal seeking the ultimate'maximalist' burger experience, this is the one to beat.
Today I had the best burger in Canada!!! I love hamburgers ate them all over the world, this is one of the best, quality of meat, fresh bun, cook to perfection, great toppings. How can you go anywhere else.

Burger savoureux, viande juteuse mais manquait d'assaisonnement hélas . Frites maison très bonnes. Le bémol est le price qui est bien trop élevé. 29$ pour un burger frites & une boisson.
J'ai rien à dire de négatifs,
J'ai mangé le meilleur hamburger au Wagyu 5 étoiles 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Excellent vraiment la meilleure endroit pour les hamburger. Sa vaut le déplacement 👌🏻👌🏻
I was told this is the best burger place in Montreal... I beg to differ. I mean the place is beautiful & the staff are very friendly, the price is reasonable & the burgers definitely look amazing... but unfortunately, I didn't like the taste. I've tried two different burgers here but both times, the texture of the beef patty & the seasoning were far from my preferred taste. So I guess you gotta give it a shot to see if it's to your liking or not, but I'd say it's worth trying at least once because the burgers are very different from typical burgers we see everyday.
A small place that we weren't looking for but glad we found. We had a couple of their mac & cheese dishes & one of their Burgers. I had the cajun shrimp mac & cheese & it was so tasty! & very filling for not an extortionate price. Also, the staff are incredibly friendly & funny. Very glad we found this place for lunch.
Visited the St. Viateur location of this small, quaint restaurant. They offer one of the best burgers in Montreal, accompanied by tasty fries. Try the Lefty, or a build your own. Special mention to Dimitra for outstanding service. Highly recommend for a cozy & delicious burger.
I had the best burger at this restaurant. It was delicious. Fries were so tasty & the garlic aioli was so good. Service was great. Definitely recommend!
Great burger with excellent ingredients you don't usually find in a typical burger joint. Pricey but amazing. It's a small restaurant in Old Port. *They have wagyu 🍔
My family & I from the U.S. visited Montréal for the first time & we randomly picked this place for lunch. Service was great, & the food was the best. We all can't stop raving about the best burgers we've ever had. I'm not a burger person, but I ate everything that day. The mac & cheese is also magic, yummy! Truthfully, this was the very best burger!!! If you're in the area you have got to try it.
The lovely lady that works was super nice helpful! The burger is an absolute bomb of flavors. It was delicious & their fries were absolutely phenomenal. Perfect portion on everything.
