Best burger ever. I went with my boyfriend Thursday night. Beautiful seating arrangement with 90s rock music playing with the right volume. The restaurant was immaculately clean, which is a rarity in snowy January. The guy at the cash register welcomed us ever so cordially and explained the menu to us in detail and with expertise as we told this was going to be our first experience at South Street Burgers. With his suggestion we got a True North Six ounce and a mushroom ans swiss 10 ounce (with extra 4 ounce patty) combos. It took around 10 minutes for the burgers and fries to get ready. The guy at the cash cleaned the table for us and brought the food to our table. We were pleasantly surprised by the hospitality offered to us from a self-service restaurant. I have to say the service was excellent.
The slight uneasiness I had about the price (around 17 bucks for a combo) quickly went away as we started devouring our burgers. My o my- they were probably the best burgers we ever had. They were perfectly cooked with a tinge of pinkness inside. The mushrooms in my burger were supple and of top-notch quality. I feel like can still taste them in my mind. And the fries were as good as fries can get- crispy but not overcooked or of the heavy brown color you often find from fries cooked in repetitively used oil. The burgers were so tasty that we didn't realize how filling they are until we finished them and I had to walk to go to the washroom. And the by the way the washroom was very clean, modest but classy. We were so full that we decided to wait out half an hour after finishing food while talking and listening to classics by Led Zepplin, Queen, and CCR on the radio.
Overall, a fantastic first day experience with South Street Burger, but certainly it is going to be our first of many to come. In the entire hour we spent there, the only negative thing that I can recall is that they don't have Onion Ring, which is a pity as the rings are my first choice of a side with my burgers. I told the guy at the cash that they should do the rings! Anyway, a beautiful evening with mesmerising food and service! I had to give 5 in 5.
