Big Smoke Burger used to be known as Craft Burger. It turns out they didn't officially own the rights to "Craft Burger," and to play it safe they decided to change the name to a trademark they could secure. You'll note that nothing has really changed about the place but the title. Less a rebranding than a rechristening, I like the new moniker. It's definitely more "Toronto" and I am sick of seeing word 'craft' being thrown around anyway in the food world. (It makes me think of sparkles and glue sticks.)
Your standard burger is 6oz of freshly ground chuck, and it tastes like it too. These aren't frozen/refrozen patties. Their signature burgers are souped up with speciality toppings, and there are some pretty nifty options like the Crazy Burger: jalapeno Havarti, coleslaw, chipotle mayo, BBQ sauce, hot peppers. Crazy. Burger.
Combos include either fries or onion rings and a soda. Substituting a Boylan's makes the cheapest combo $10.30 before tax, so be careful. The pricing and the rather long wait-times (fast food this is not) are the only bummer about this place but hey, you can't rush quality. And these burgers definitely are.
Obligatory Title Pun: They're not blowing SMOKE.
Menu Readability: I really dig the graphic design here. That is all.
Need to mention: They make a mean veggie burger too.
What this place teaches me about myself: Sparkles and glue sticks? Maybe I'm the one with the problem.
