Hero Burger was all the rage when it first opened up in close proximity to my place of employment at Yonge and King. Despite hearing lacklustre reviews from some of my colleagues I decided to take the plunge. I had trouble giving Hero Burger a mere three stars, because I do love the concept. They do try and provide a quality product, in that they are made with 100% Heritage Angus Beef are hormone, antibiotic and gluten free in addition to being Halal Certified, BUT you do pay too much for what you actually get.
The burgers are thick and some of the condiments are definitely an added bonus yes Maple Chipotle BBQ Sauce I'm talking to you. I also like the variation in cheeses that can be added, at an extra charge I might add, but they are still available and appreciated. Especially the Blue and Goat cheese.
Quite possibly Hero Burger simply failed to live up to its hype and I'm punishing them for it with a mediocre review, yet to provide it a higher rating would be a grave injustice to the Detroit Eateries of this world.
