First time in and I was blown away by the burgers, HANDS DOWN BEST BURGER IVE EVER HAD, I had the queen burger and it was done perfectly. the house made black bun was incredible , and i was pleasantly surprised by the flavor of truffle on the mushrooms, it paired very well with the arugula letus & Brie cheese. I highly recommend you go in and have one! Both the waffle fries and straight cut were well seasoned and served hot, mix that with the gravy and oh boy it's flavor town for days. The Prices are also quite reasonable for the amount of food you get, I will absolutely be going again soon.

Price: $42 The restaurant was not busy when I arrived and I waited 30 minutes for the food. This isn’t as much of a complaint than it is a warning for those that may be on some time constraints. Both my wife and I loved the burgers, the bacon jam was amazing, has a nice little kick to it. Fresh lettuce, soft tasty brioche bun. Meat has flavour and nice spicing. It isn’t some frozen patty from the store. Fries were run of the mill and nothing incredibly special but that’s okay because they weren’t bad at all. Overall, it’s comparable pricing to a burger joint around town. (Fat burger, five guys, Wayback etc) but it’s local and I think that means something.

Stopped in for the first time and ordered the lunch special(11am-3pm). Smash Burger, fries, and a can of coke for $11. The burger was delicious. The fries were good quality and perfectly crisp. Hard to believe this was cheaper than McDonald's. If I had to pick something to be critical of, I guess the fries could be more seasoned, but that's personal preference and they were still excellent. I'll definitely be back.

Great tasting burgers. Amazing waffle fries. It's going for the diner vibe. Staff were super friendly. Would recommend! Though it is a tad on the expensive side.

This hidden gem serves up mouth-watering burgers one of the juiciest burgers in town! love at first bite. the staff was attentive and very Friendly, quick service, and cozy atmosphere.Hands down, best burger joint ever! Creative toppings, and cooked to perfection. The sides are decent but nothing extraordinary if they focus more on a good burger and keep the prices reasonable the sides

My family tried this place, as we always love trying new restaurants in town. Here is the good: Burgers were delicious. We all loved what we ordered. Service is fast and friendly. The items that aren't great: Menu board extremely small and hard to read. It was more expensive than we expected. Including tip we paid over $70 for 3 people and you have to pick up your food at the counter when ready. Cold - just like every restaurant that has existed in this space, you need to keep your coat on to stay warm. The floor and tables have permanent stains/markings which gives the impression that it's not clean. I'd recommend trying for sure. Order takeout and enjoy the tasty burgers. We will order again. :)

Hot and Fresh! Super kind and friendly Employee running the counter. Had the smash burger combo and Chicken burger combo. The smash burger was juicy and tasteful. The chicken burger was super crispy and had the perfect amount of spice in the breading. The fries were hot and had a good amount of seasoning as well. Milkshake somewhat generic but also not bad! Will be going here again :) Only downfall is lack of options for kids.

Delicious! Love the vibe of the restaurant, very rustic and clean. Seating's great. You've definitely earned a regular. Burgers are cheaper than Wayback or Fiveguys and 10x fresher. Will definitely order a custom burger next time. Though a criticism I would have is the smash burger patty not being smashed enough. Still delicious though, nothing tastes like it's been sitting at the back for ages, especially the crispy onions. Regular fries are a must try!

The burgers are AMAZING - not your typical ingredients. Each burger is very unique, with nice ingredients such as Gouda cheese, arugula, different types of aolis for sauce. Highly recommend trying out! Only negative is that the bathroom wasn t overly clean. But like I said, the burgers are fantastic!

I had a fantastic experience today at this place. From the moment I walked in, the staff was incredibly welcoming. The food was served promptly, as I ordered Aloo tikki burger and cactus fries and they provide a tasty dip. Great job to the lady Diljot and a staff for creating such a great experience. Vegetarian options: I like the vegetarian options

Very mediocre. I wanted to like this place so bad as the menu looks great. Burger reminded me of a gas station microwave burger although not as greasy. Asked for no onions on either of our burgers and both were just loaded; Cant take them off either as they are diced and mixed in with the sauce. Aside from onions there were no other fixings. Cheese was processed and stuck the bun to the patty, I swear it seems like it was microwaved. Sweet potatoes fries had no seasoning, curly fries were nothing to write home about and all the food was cool by the time it reached us (which i understand may not be the resteraunts fault)

Stopped at Meat the Bun in Red Deer on my way to Calgary and tried the classic MTB Smashburger combo. The meal was delicious and well-prepared, the ambiance was cozy, and the staff were friendly. A great spot for a quick lunch!

Went to the new location in Red Deer. My kids and I had the smash burger combos that came with a large portion of fries and a can of pop for an amazing price of $10.99 between 1-3pm only. The staff was friendly and efficient, the fries were fresh, I wasn t expecting the seasoning so next time I ll ask for none, the gravy was okay not my favourite, but the smash burger was great, and the MTB aioli which I was a little reluctant to try was so gooood! Next time I m ordering a side of it for my fries. I can t wait to try the chicken burger, great menu!
