With a passion for restaurants and more than 30 years of experience in the food industry, Papa Elie and his son Ziad were able to create a unique family business: ZEEZ.
Ziad began his career at hospitality school and pursued a specialization in culinary arts at the Paul Bocuse Institute in France to later work in the most prestigious hotels and restaurants. Ziad is the creator of the ZEEZ menu and is responsible for quality assurance. Filled with energy and passion, you will always see him dedicated to providing the best customer service.
Papa Elie is a master of management and organization with an entrepreneurial career spanning more than 40 years. A pillar of the company, he always ensures that everything is in order and that the shift runs smoothly. In fact, you'll probably see him working on his computer at a ZEEZ table.
ZEEZ's mission is to create moments of pleasure through delicious burgers. Elie and Ziad's goal is not only to offer quality burgers using fresh, homemade ingredients, but also to make them accessible to Montrealers by offering affordable prices. 🧡
ZEEZ is widely praised for its smash burgers with juicy patties, crispy exteriors, and flavorful house sauces that make each bite memorable, with standout options like chili crisp and mushroom melt. The value is a recurring theme, thanks to affordable prices, generous portions, and a loyalty program plus student discounts that many reviewers appreciate. Free popcorn when waiting and a friendly, welcoming staff add to the experience, which many describe as cozy and casual despite the small space. While service is often praised, occasional delays during peak hours are noted, along with the compact seating that encourages takeout or outdoor options when weather allows. Vegetarian and vegan patties are appreciated by diners seeking plant-based choices, and the smashed potatoes and fries regularly receive praise for crunch and flavor. Overall, the spot is celebrated as a standout in Montreal for burgers, with repeat visits common as different menu items are explored and the vibe stays upbeat and family friendly.
Très bon accueil par la proprio je pense, elle nous a offert du pop-corn pour attendre & aussi un dessert super bon fait par elle. Les pommes de terre écrasées sont croustillantes & bonnes. Seul bémol c'est que c'est hyper gras. Je n'ai pas bcp aimé les burgers, car Très gras aussi. Peut être pensez à changer le fromage que vous utilisez ou la viande hachée :( Y a du potentiel...
Une superbe découverte! Tout est bien : le service accueillant avec du popcorn, la gentillesse des gens sur place, les prix raisonnables & les burgers DÉLICIEUX (gros coup de coeur pour celui épicé). Ça fait plaisir de trouver encore des places où le client en a pour son argent, parce qu'aujourd'hui les prix sont chers pour un service & une cuisine pas terribles, ici c'est pas le cas! Je recommande!
Servis rapidement (moins de 10 min) pour manger sur place. Très bon, pas gras. Prix abordable. Super ratio qualité/prix. Une des meilleures places de burger dans Montréal
Absolutely delicious burgers & poutine! We got the Chili smash burger with fried smashed potatoes & the BBQ crunch wash burger with the classic poutine & everything was delicious! Plenty of parking around, good vibes inside though it's a bit cozy if you dine in!

C'est un restaurant petit mais remplie de gens sympa. Surtout la serveuse, Léa, très aimable & elle comble toutes les attentes que la clientèle demande. Je recommande.
Burger très bon & bien garnis, un des meilleurs burger de Montréal ! Allez y les yeux fermés. Merci particulièrement à Sylva pour son accueil & son service !!
GREAT service from Julie(not100%) sure I remember the name. We came 20 min before closing , she was friendly & offered great service, although many other orders from Uber in line. Food was great & tasty . Good first experience . Place is small but cozy. Lots of paper towels if you need. 👍 👌
Honestly some of the best burgers I've had in Montreal. You get free popcorn, the fries are perfectly crispy & the burgers are far from basic. 10/10 recommend! Plus their staff is super nice :) Even if you're not in mtl, it's worth the drive.

Wait was pretty long but.. it was a Saturday night. It was my first smash burger experience & it's up there with the best burgers I've had. I'll for sure go back & won't mind the wait, it's worth it! There's not really any sitting space but I didn't mind because I had to run anyways!
Il y a des meilleurs burgers à Montréal, mais pas à ce prix ! Le rapport qualité/prix chez zeez est très bon, les quantités sont aussi genéreuses. J'ai trouvé le burger BBQ sec & le restaurant est quand même petit donc plutôt pour manger sur le pouce. Dans l'ensemble je recommande
Petit resto de smash burger sur le plateau avec environ 6 places assises au comptoir à l'intérieur. Le service était très agréable & courtois... Honnêtement ça fait du bien parce qu'à Montréal on trouve plus beaucoup de service! On a essayer le classique & le BBQ avec les smash potatoes & je vous conseille d'essayer leur moutarde qui est délicieuse! Petit bémol, la musique un peu trop forte & non nécessaire dans ce genre de petite place. Très bon smash & prix "ok'", arrêtez vous si vous êtes dans le coin ;) Pour des idées repas & recettes retrouve moi sur Insta au @pates.au.ketchup & sur mon blog à patesauketchup.com ✌️
