| - When you want to indulge in a burger, you might as well go all out. And the burgers here are the cream of the crop. Plus, as an aside, go for the onion rings over the fries, as others have mentioned. While the fries are nothing special, the onion rings were crispy and super satisfying (plus, the onions didn't overwhelm the batter, which is always a plus in my books).
We visited on a weekday around lunchtime and it wasn't busy at all. We found street parking for free on a small side street just 2 blocks west of the restaurant. Service was friendly, and because there weren't many customers around, our food came out pretty quickly. We ordered: a) The Castor, b) The Philly, c) fries, and the aforementioned onion rings.
Think of thick, juicy patties, the kind you see in commercials but you're never sure can be real life. The burgers were very tasty, soft, great to look at, and full of flavour. Nothing tasted artificial at all. The cheese was perfectly melted, and the meat was cooked perfectly. Unlike others, I didn't find this too messy to eat (and I was wearing white!). The Philly in particular had a nice kick to it (stuffed with delicious pickled jalapenos). Super fresh, and very delicious burgers.
Overall, great burgers and an awesome meal. My only gripe would be the sub-par fries, and perhaps the price, which, in the aggregate, cost us more than we thought it would. For two people, with tax, we paid around $30 (no drinks).
