| - My current pick for the best burger joint in Toronto.
Go for the homemade burger with cheese. The patty is amazing, juicy and tender. Add some mayo as a topping and it feels like its melting in your mouth. It's big and filling and this alone would make it worth the trip, but the fries are also pretty great too. Usually better when they're done a little longer (ask if you want) they are thick cut and crispy. Portions are very large, so don't expect to be hungry for dinner if you've eaten lunch here. :)
Annoyingly, the price keeps on climbing ever higher. Over 25 bucks for 2 people to have burgers is getting a bit much and turns this into an even more occasional visit. Also, a minor complaint: the drink with the combo is tiny for some reason (equivalent of a small most places). Especially for the price you pay (over 10 dollars)...c'mon drinks are cheap on your end I'm sure.
The decor is really dated, but honestly this is a family place that has been around forever so it sort of adds to the charm: wood pannelling all over the place, bright orange booths, worn countertops, photos of the owner, the same staff as long as I've been going, and all. There's a reason the place has been open so long that the decor look like this: because of the food.
If you're in the north end of the city it's more than worth the visit to this super cool classic family run burger joint.
