Fresh, hot, and amazing! Quick, friendly service. Good portion sizes and the best chicken sandwich we’ve had (better than original Shake Shack). Way more fries than we could eat.
Bys…motley meal today. Big Mckenna with a d”Italiano style bun and bacon bits that were non existent on a slapped together burger. For $28 you expect way better. Every year I give this place a try and every year it gets worse. Zero consistency. The big Mckenna was on the hitchin kitchen menu way back but still tastes different every time I have it. Seems like a quality control issue with too many trucks and no supervision of new staff . First year was amazing, such a shane to see it go downhill. Clearly visible by the lack of any type of lineup or other customers at peak time.
I recently had the pleasure of dining at Johnny & Mae’s food truck, and it was an awesome experience! The burgers and fries were absolutely delicious. Jen and Missy were incredibly friendly and kind, making the experience even better. Highly recommend this food truck for anyone looking for great food and wonderful service!
We each had the chopped cheese burrito and it was bomb. The tortillas were perfect and didn’t rip which was astonishing with how big the burrito was! The fries are probably the best I’ve ever had and we were eating them for days. Massive portions and the landwash location is so beautifully decorated for Christmas.
I have only been once but it was a spectacular burger and fantastic french fries. I am just a tourist to the city so I might not know the best/closest street parking but there is a paid lot within a minute walk and it costs $1 for the convenience. DON'T FEED THE PIGEONS!
Great food and friendly staff. I got the Dorito crunch wrap and fries. Fries are hand cut and crispy. Burger was spicy which I love and they warned me about. Only negative was no vegetarian options besides fries. Definitely will eat here again.
We ordered the scallops and fries, and the honey garlic chicken tacos. Both absolutely delicious! Some pro-tips before you come here; bring some wet wipes, lots of tissues, and a small bottle of water! And don’t wear your favourite clothes! If you’re looking for a quaint meal that you can politely consume with a fork and knife, look elsewhere. The food here is so hefty, that you will emerge from your culinary experience slathered in sauce and other entrails from your burger/taco. And the food is so good that you won’t mind either! The only way to consume this food is as if you’re a starving crazed madman who hasn’t eaten solid food in three weeks; with sauce and other entrails covering your hands and face, as you proudly devour your fresh kill with reckless abandon! And if *somehow* you emerge from your culinary deathmatch with no sauce or other entrails on your clothes, the Valkyrie’s themselves will descend from the heavens and sing your Vinland Saga in the halls of the all-father!
Excellent and efficient service with big portions and Pepsi products. .My daughter had the Double Double burger with fries and I had the Saltbeef Poutine, a very Newfoundland treat indeed. All was delicious and large enough portions to split both, will definitely return and try to get my hands on the Mother Klucking loaded fries!
Some great reasons to get the fish & chips at Johnny & Maes Sea Treats Food Truck in Quidi Vidi. Generous portions. Reasonably priced. Fresh & delious. Best in St. Johns.
Fries were very over cooked.
Amazing fish & chips very fresh Not a thick better, but still very crispy. Food
Good food, nice big and tasty portions, sitting on a table under a tree. Not much can go wrong there. Add the friendly staff and the woman in the counter(Mae, I suppose?)s smile and kind attitude. I will be back. The only downside in my opinion, they close early. Otherwise, it would be my go-to for supper.
Not worth the hassle of a mediocre burger that should cost less than $10. Stay away, money grab!
One of the best places to have food on the island. Hands down. 11/10 highly recommended!
We had the jalapeño honey fried chicken sandwich. It was just amazingggg!! One of the bests I ve ever had. Portion was huge as well. Very juicy chicken. Loved the concept of jalapeño and honey.
Tasty burgers, fries were delish mush also! Fast service, I ll be back again!
Food was amazing - pricey but worth it
Delicious burger and tasty fries!
A little pricey but phenomenal food!
Looking for a burger? Thats the place to go. Best burger in town for sure!!
Worst fries like concrete
Jalapeño Honey.... cmon man! That is how a crispy chicken sandwich should be done, son! Nice work lads....
Great burgers! I had the double double down at the Regatta and it was really good. Lots of cheese and tons of bacon! They had a long line but were still very fast and the food came out great. I recommend you giving them a try!
It was okay - didn t live up to the hype for me.
Bun on burger burnt , fries to salty, bacon on burger hard as a rock , chicken burger too much sauce couldnt eat too spicy ..water warm ...and way over priced for what we got ,2 burgers ,2 water ...$60.00
Decent food but I had the sh1ts for weeks after I ate the chicken sandwich, I think their fryer oil is from the 80s.
Everyone always says how amazing these guys burgers are so I decided to try it, and I was very disappointed. It was $26 for a water, burger and fries which isn t exactly cheap. The patty was very small and my buns were burnt to a crisp, the bacon was nasty and overall just not a good burger at all. You get a good amount of fries but they re also not the best and were almost burnt as well. I d be willing to try this place again but man this was not what I expected at all.
Had the Snack Box and the Footlong Sandwich. Tasty treats, friendly staff, nice fall outdoor experience.
Love their main dishes, get them usually twice a month 5/5, however I have a consistent issue of getting extremely bad fries. Really really dry and just unpleasant to eat. Hense why I can only give 4/5. Hopefully this improves an I can update my rating.
Im full and I havent even started the fries
Two meals, Animal Burger with works waffle fries and Hickory Smoked Burger with works waffle fries. The waffle fries were ok, the toppings had some issues. The cheese sauce appeared and tasted watered down and the brisket... was not smoked or grilled properly, it tasted like it was almost boiled The Hickory Burger had a bit too much bbq sauce but otherwise it tasted good. The Animal Burger was disappointing, the chicken was two thin pieces that had been way overcooked, I had to remove it from the burger because it was hard. The saving factor was the grilled garlic butter bun and it could have used something more to add to the freshness of the red onion like lettuce or spinach. The meals came to $70 total. We figured the burgers would have been huge but they were quite normal in size so it didnt feel like it was worth it. We can say we tried it now, I wanted to return for a chicken burger at some point but after that sad filet on the Animal Burger, I think well try somewhere else. Would not recommend, unfortunately.
I like having the different burgers.
A bit pricey but a delicious treat!
Best burgers in St. Johns
No vegetarian/vegan options
The food was delicious but it was actually too large of a portion. It was way too much.
Good poutine!
The first thing we ate after landing in St. John s for the first time. The portions are enormous and quality of ingredients is fantastic. Flavours are out of this world. Highly recommend. We can t say enough good things about this food truck.
Always wanted to try and finally did, and didnt disappoint. Delicious
Just had red curry brisket birria tacos at the Quidi Vidi location. Had me beside myself. Something special.
Huge portions, tried several of the menu options and havent been disappointed yet. Great staff and service
I have no idea how this place has such overwhelmingly positive reviews; perhaps the most overrated place in St. John s. The cost is absurdly high, the flavour profile is salt and nothing more - so disappointing. Spend your money elsewhere because this is simply not worth it. There are far better options for a far better price.
One of the best burgers I ever put in my mouth
It was delicious. We both loved our choices. Large, messy, burgers which are amazing. So many french fries. On the list for a second try.
Great customer service. Fresh homecut fries... just the right amount of crispy. Delicious Chipotle chicken burger. The portion is huge so I split with hubby. We were both full! $22 for 2 people for gourmet street food. What more could I ask for?!! Definitely going back! For any Toronto folks, the food is the same excellent quality as Stockyards on St. Clair.
I just had the tastiest burger here! Unfortunately I dont have a picture but I will update my review with a pic next time I go. I just had the Big McKenna Burger. The bun was nice and plump. The cheese was perfectly melted. The pickles that were on it were crisp and delicious. Everthing tastes fresh and well cooked. The meat was the star here as it should be. Very very well seasoned, and because they cook them smash style the edges has those nice crispy bits we all love. Seriously the meat on this burger was perfect! Ill be back for sure - it was the best burger Ive ever had. Update: I went again and this time the Red Curry Birria Tacos (with a picture). These are PERHAPS one of the best Tacos I have ever eaten. It isnt just a good taco - the fusion element with the red curry sauce was INCREDIBLY good. Super super tasty, and not too too heavy compared to like a burger and fries. Ill be getting these tacos again, for sure!!
Very expensive. Inflation has hit and their portions have decreased in size. Big blue was way too spicy.
Wicked food
Always get the chicken burgers! The beef ones are good but the chicken is transcendent. Parking: 15-20
Fantastic BBQ Bacon Cheeseburger!
Delicious!!
I only tried the poutine with salt beef but it was fantastic! The gravy and cheese was great quality! The service was fantastic! The people are the best.
Fast, friendly, and freaking delicious. A tad expensive but seriously worth it.
A great local spot, run by great people, making great food.
Bys oh bys. Best burger ever. Messy as fvck but thats expected when youre getting this beast of a burg. Staff is great and accommodating to your needs. Little pricey but its worth it imo
While the food is good, to say that the curbside pick up is poorly organized is a massive understatement. It s the worse experience imaginable. For a scheduled pick up time. I waited 30 mins with 20 other cars idling the whole time. Then I got my food with there multiple cars in front of me who hadn t yet got their food yet so I couldn t go anywhere. I had to sit in the line for another 10-12 mins. Crazy and certainly not worth it.
Delicious as always!! Thank you!
Some of the best burgers anywhere in Newfoundland. Hardest part is waiting for them to open all winter. Worth every penny.
A bit pricy but worth it because the hamburgers are deadly!
Expensive at first glance but you get large portions and its very high quality food so its only a little on the pricey side. Just make sure youre hungry.
Deadly burgers and the everything fries are to die for! Worth every penny!
Simply amazing!!!
The BEST burgers I have ever tasted! (And I have eaten a lot of burgers from a lot of places.) The rules: 1: Do not wear a clean shirt while eating Johnny & Maes burgers. 2: Do not wear a white shirt while eating Johnny & Maes burgers. 3: Do not wear a clean white shirt while eating Johnny & Maes burgers. 4: Make sure youre good and hungry.
More, more, more! For the love of God, try the gravy!
Second visit. What can I say that hasnt already be said. Friendly, fast, fun vibe. Food is always piping hot and delicious.
Incredible food with even more incredible portions. Youve gotta try this
Delicious! I had The Buff Chick. Tons of flavour, big enough for two regular humans. Its messy, so bring a change of clothes
Good burger from fresh beef! The fries use to be seasoned, but not any more.
The staff was friendly and gave us some great recommendations. I had the Big McKenna burger and salt beef poutine and CA had the Seize her fries and stick it to ya burger. Both were great choices. There was more food than we could eat and ended up bring some home. The food was not cheap but the quality and quantitiy more than made up for the price.
Hands down the best burger in town. The fries are a little bit disappointing considering the price. Overall, if you re in the mood for a big burger this is the place to go.
Fantastic food ways ..
Absolutely amazing food but prices could be better. Definitely worth the experience though. Recommended.
Wow incredible
Delicious, fresh, unbelievably fast and the portion sizes are massive
Amazing food that fills, always will recommend!
Great truck food experience with lovely staff. Food is alright. Will definitely try different menu items
They never fail. Awesome deadly food.
Amazing food
Not my kind of a fry stand
Amazing food. Honey garlic chicken burger was one of the best Ive had. Customer service was very pleasant as well. Highly recommend. Can easily split a meal between 2
Had their Nashville chicken burger. Outstanding!!!!! Staff extremely helpful, friendly and made an excellent recommendation.
Best place in town for a burger and fries!!! Everything on the menu is amazing and the staff are top notch
Always worth the price and have friendly staff.
Excellent food and service
Unrealistically BUSSIN. Stop reading and go rn
This is beyond what my tastebuds can comprehend. 10 stars!!
This is the Tribute Burger it was decent, but I think I like the regular big mcinna better I think. Fries were good, burger presentation was ok but could have been nicer. I wouldn t get this one again. But I will be back for others lol.
Always an amazing meal. Have had it a dozen times 8/5 would recommend
Fantastic food. The burgers are so creative and so delicious. Word has clearly gotten out because this place is always busy, but worth the wait.
Phenomenal, every time!
Fantastic food, probably some of the best in the city, they had tenders which were new for this week, some of the best Ive ever had.
Awesome food and quick, friendly service.
Religious experience
Amazing burgers! Huge portions. So worth it. Slowly working our way through the menu. Enough to share too if you want to.
Unreal food. The Big Mae is probably the best chicken sandwich Ive ever had, and the fries are great as well. Will definitely be back to try out the rest of their menu
Simply delicious!
Amazing food but issues with their debit machine from time to time. Overall great experience though!
Love the food!
Eaten here a few times and its really good! Quality is always consistent. If you eat here, prepare for left overs!
Best burgers in town!
The food is delicious and doesnt disappoint. Huge portions, you get lots of food for your money. I frequently make my self sick from eating most of 1 portion in one sitting but i cant really fault them for giving you so much lol
Best burgs around!
Amazing, as usual!!!
