| - I was craving a burger and like so many times before, I decided what better way to find a place to eat, but to Yelp it? Living near Hwy 7 and Leslie, there are not many burger joints because I'm in the heart of northern Chinatown. I was pleasantly surprised to see Boneyard pop up because it's about a 10min drive from home. Upon looking at their menu, I was set on trying it out. The place has a wide assortment of burgers, including specialty burgers, as well as various BBQ items. The thing that sold me was that they have onion strings and an option of mixed fries (regular and sweet potato fries or half fries with half onion strings (for an extra charge). I love onion strings!
I ordered the Crunchy Juicy Lucy burger. It has cheddar cheese inside the burger...yummy, melted cheddar cheese oozing out of the burger...and is topped with tomatoes, lettuce and onion strings! Did I mention that the burger is a 10oz burger? Also, the pile of fries is huge! Not to mention, they are super thin and not soggy. One other thing to mention is that they ask you how you'd like your burger cooked. The name of the burger is not a lie...it was super juicy and hot off the grill. Leaning over my fries and burger gave me a mini steam facial!
My husband decided to order the ribs with the onion fries and coleslaw...and to be honest, up until this point, I have not had a rack of ribs that even comes close to my dad's BBQ'd ribs...not until today! Most places steam their ribs because it's faster to cook and so they fall off the bones, but this place does it the way BBQ should be done! They even have their own BBQ sauce that you can buy. Needless to say, they ribs were perfectly cooked and so flavourful!! Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that we started off with the French onion soup. I'm always on the lookout for a good onion soup that's not too salty and their's was pretty good. I personally like more cheese and bread, but I was happy enough that it wasn't overly salty. Over all, I really enjoyed everything that we ordered. Can't wait to go back and try something else!
