1205 Queen St W, Toronto, ON M6K 0B9, Canada
I think the patties are very good quality but for my preference could use a little more salt, but other than that this place is great for a delicious burger. They play music kinda loud but if you enjoy the music it can be nice to chill to for a bit. The cashier's are sweet and the cooks in the back do try to accommodate an unhappy patron when they can. For all the super expensive options this place is wonderful for keeping enticing deals each day off the week. A great burger for about 10$. Definitely check it out!
For most of my life when I go out to get a burger, I go to the usual spots, A&W, McDonald's, Wendy's, ect, and the odd time, I've tried something new (including a few different places in the last year), it's generally nothing special, more spicy has been a common trend as of late due to the influx of people from different countries including India, which prefer spicy foods, but typically, I've come to find that a burger is a burger is a burger. That said, this place was a refreshing surprise! I had the Slam with cheese, and paid a bit extra to get the mushrooms (sauteed) on there, and the first thing I noticed when I got it was the presentation. It was.. Well, I've posted a picture. Basically the kind of thing that you expect to get in a fancy restaurant. And yes, it tastes just as good as it looks, if not better. I demolished that burger, and had no regrets. Oh, the one thing I noticed, real meat, none of that frozen patty stuff that most places do. And the lady that took my order, Irem(apologies if I got it wrong, I entered it in my phone to remember, but auto-correct changed it to something else) she was very friendly and sociable, and talked to me about her native country of Turkey and the scenic natural landscapes. Overall it was a very delightful experience. A couple of side notes. A: This place should look into getting a proper dot on Google maps. I was only able to find it on here because I looked up the specific name, but when zooming in on the building on Google maps, it is not there to touch/click on. B: To Irem, if she happens to read this, I would highly recommend to get ChatGPT. It is an AI(artificial intelligence) chat app for your phone, with a vast array of knowledge on just about everything, and as an added bonus, it understands every language. It could answer any question you may have about Toronto, or just in general.
I simply love their smash burgers and cannot seem to get enough! Iram is a wonderful waitress who is always cheerful and full of positive energy. The place has its own vibe of a bit of grunge and the underground.
I drive 1 hour from Cambridge ON to eat at this amazing spot. I can confidently say I’ve tried most burger places around the city and these are the best burgers I’ve ever tasted. The smash burgers are juicy and always fresh. The sauce they make in house is phenomenal and what you imagine a fancy Big Mac to taste like. They have specials every day of the week making it well worth the price you pay. Even the service is wonderful! Bonus points for giving your dog a free patty if you bring in your fur friend. I’ll forever be loyal to this place, TRY IT! Best burgers I’ve ever tasted
The burger has no flavour. Somehow their vanilla milkshake was warm. I gave it away to a random stranger. Would not eat here again. Just go to Wendys. $15 meal right here, not worth it.
I came across this location while in Toronto just last week. I'd never eaten or heard of this place before, so I thought I'd give it a shot. The atmosphere inside felt very nice and clean and I got a kick out of the science stuff. The woman at the service desk was friendly and the food was great! I'd definitely eat here again, and if you're in the area I highly recommend you do, too!
The burger was really good. The front desk lady was kind and patient while taking our order. She was also clever enough to suggest they help split our burgers and milkshake in 2 since we got a large order to share. I love their Oreo milkshake in that it wasn't too thick, heavy and nauseating like milkshakes some stores sell. This felt really good to taste and was the right consistency. Their burger patty was cooked to perfection and their fries were great as well. I will certainly be visiting again.
First time trying one of their locations and let me tell you the food was fantastic. And the price…everything in the picture plus a can of pop for 12.90 . Super great meal. Good quality meat, seasoned well. Fresh cut fries were absolutely fantastic. Still giving 5 stars but girl taking my order didn’t ask what drink I wanted with the combo, which two dips I wanted and actually had to ask if I could grab my own pop out of the cooler. Also, it’s a hot summer day, it was very warm in there to dine in, some air conditioning would be nice or the very least some fans. Would definitely return. Great meal
Good food friendly staff thank you Food
Amazing food. Amazing service. The staff was very nice and the place was clean. I got their smash burger with a double patty! Just perfect!! One of the best burgers in the GTA that s for sure. Fries portion was massive as well. A must try for my Halal fam.
Smash burger and fries. Very good will be going back.
Thanks for bigra and item :) Good vibes and delicious burgers! Food
Amazing sandwiches, great burgers. I highly recommend the Chopped Cheess Sandwich. Have fun and enjoy.
Waited a fair time to be served food after ordering, the poutine wasnt anything special you can get better at A&W but the burger I had was awesome. Wheelchair accessibility: To get to the order terminal you need to go up a set of stairs and half of the seating area in down a different set of steps
Worst place Food boson Food
Editing my review. The prices all got jacked up and we no longer go here. Foods still good if you afford it
We come here for lunch with my children during school days once in a while and I too come for lunch with colleagues as well. The food is great tasting and the quality is superior to most of the quick burger joints! Overall the service is personable and lovely!
Thank you Ella! Great food Food
Worst
Taste super bland forgot to put any salt on the meat and very small portion for a 15 $ burger Friendly staff tho Food
Quick service, friendly staff, yummy food - can t ask for anything more.
Graet place but no gently
Great food and friendly staff Thank you Ella :) Food
Skip this Place. ---- Awful customer service. The girl has full of attitude. We had a very quick interaction and she cant even be nice???! and get this For no reason I do review food places with full honesty, check out my bio for proof.
I came here for the first time yesterday. The burger was delicious and the girl at the checkout has a great smile. She was very kind and attentive. Honestly, I liked her food recommendation. I will definitely come back with my friends. Thank you Food
The lady who took my order was really very understanding, polite and cheerful, the hamburgers were great, I loved it, I think I will come again...
As this was my second time getting a smash burger and vanilla shake from Matts Burger Lab, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the Bacon & Cheese Smash Burger is absolutely delicious. The Vanilla Shake was a perfect addition to it and I really enjoyed my meal. The washrooms were unaccessible to the customers at the time of my visit though, so that was a bit disappointing as the staff was very nonchalant about the situation. I hope that they get maintenance to fix this soon. Thank you Burger Lab!
we came there as a flight crew from Turkish Airlines, everything was perfect. Irem and Batu was very helpful, customer focused. surely I ll visit your place again.
Food was great. Also, Irem was super helpful. Loved the customer service.
The burguers are pretty good and the server Irem it s so nice person. For sure I ll be back
we just discovered this place and tried one of their burgers (Oklahoma style) Irem was incredibly friendly and helpful. Batu s delicious burger is a must try. Will definitely be back!!
We were there today with my work friends and had excellent service with rem. Perfecto
Stopped there with my coworkers, food was excellent, rem was so sweet!
Love this place the food is always fresh, tasty and plentiful. Service was good. Irem was happy and smiled at us. I will come back for sure Food : 5/5
Everything was very good, we liked it very much, the taste was great, there was an employee named Irem, she took care of us, thank you very much to her. See you again :)
Ms. rem was very friendly and hospitable, and the food was great. I will definitely come back again.
Very delicious!! Love the service given by irem. Such a smiley queen
I love this place. One of the best smash burgers ever and the staff are so friendly every time. My partner is vegetarian and assures me their veggie burger is top-tier Vegetarian options: They have one veggie burger on the menu, but it s a GOOD veggie burger. Also delicious fries.
Great burger with great service! Thanks for your suggestions and your smile Irem! Thank you Batu for the food! Food
I randomly saw this place and decided to give it a try. On the recommendation of the cashier, I ordered the Supreme Burger combo. While it s not the best in the city, it s definitely one of the top 5 burgers. I especially loved the sauces. I wish the restaurant continued to make such delicious food, and I will definitely return. A special thank you to Yasemen for recommending the Supreme Burger and friendly behaviour. Wishing you all the best and continued success.
Yasmeen and Bura were very nice to me. Best burgers in Toronto, I wish the best luck in the future for them
Ask the community Yasmine Bura and Bibesh were so good to us so nice people. Love these people would recommended infinite times, the place is so nice. Best burgers we ve ever had. I wish the best for them. Food
Very tasty burger, but the bun was cold and was barely thawed. I mentioned to hostess, who happily took it back to fix, and brought back the same thing cold ;-). To be fair, we have to eat gluten free, so they had to grab one from fridge I guess, but we also paid an extra 2$ for this bun, you d think they could at least warm it up . Fries were also cold :-(
The food was really great. Loved the juicy burger. I would love to visit again soon. Really nice place to have a good burger.
Burger was really juicy and well intact. The buns were nice and soft. The burger really came through good together. Really enjoyed the food.
The service is great and Iram is incredibly friendly! My bf and I are glad we found this place! The burger got + points from us. The fries were especially good. Thanks for everything! Food : 5/5
It was one of the best burgers I ve ever eaten. The waiter service was exceptionally excellent special thanks to Irem and Bugra for their warm and friendly attitudes. Their smiles made it a very enjoyable dinner for me.
Guys!!! S The smell will brought you guys here !!! It s so yummy Food
First time here! Came after Burger Drops. Ive seen this place for a while now and always wanted to try it. Place is a bit awkward, you have to go upstairs to order and get your food but dining is downstairs? Looks like this place was bought out from the original owners and is now run by a guy and his girl friend. She works the front of the restaurant and he looks the burgers. Asked for a recommendation but didnt really g see t one from the gf. We ended up trying the original burger (so we could compare vs. Alo go and burger drops). At first I didnt think this place served smash burgers but low and behold, they do! Burger was definitely freshly made to order. And I actually surprised me in the taste department! For the night, Im ranking burger drops as no. 1; Matts burger lab as no. 2 followed by alo go. Not sure if I would return here as there are sooooo many other burger joints to try but I would still recommend this place to anyone who likes smash burgers!!
Super nice! Such good milkshakes, even remade one for us, Waitress working who I forgot her name was so kind and friendly :)
Service is always very friendly and fast, food is delicious and the place is very clean. Consistently great
Visited this place first time few days ago cz craving some heavy duty burger hence ordered karma is back but to my disappointment ive had better tasting burgers like Gladiator, burger factory or ozzy so this one was bland for me. There was no burst of flavours neither the chicken tenders had crunchy coating. I wasnt much satisfied with it therefore 3 stars. Took the picture late
I tried the Mushroom&egg burger and frankly, its just perfect. The place is spacious and the staff is very kind. I recommend :)) thanks Matt s BurgerLab family Food
Friendly staff and delicious burger!
I ate beef bacon smash and fries burger it was perfect bacon and with sauce very compatible,fries homemade type and crispy, the cashier have smile face and nicely. I will come back again!!
I recently had lunch at Matt s Burger Lab and it was fantastic! I tried the triple cheese smash and poutine, along with an Oreo milkshake, and everything was incredibly tasty and well worth the price. The staff were friendly and helpful, making the experience even better. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a delicious meal!
Good food but i went on Friday for the Friday meal deal expecting to pay $12.90 as advertised on their social media, but when I went there they updated the price to $14.90 (I don t consider that a good deal for a soda, fries & a burger) if they re gonna increase their prices to their deals they should update across all their social media s, not just in their stores where the customers already there.
OMG their smash burgers are fire!!! Try their shakes!!!
Super amazing friendly staff, the Smashburger deal is incredible value. They did recently get rid of their chicken slider deal on Wednesday. I cried a bit, then I took a bite of their smash burger and went to flavor town
SATURDAY DEAL
Very clean, and the taste of burger are amazing and delicious. Was my first time there. But won t be the last. Food : 5/5
Ella was amazing and kind, and John got our food out in no time at all. Perfectly done burger in 10 minutes.
The burger i was served was drenched in oil and lacked flavours. I also had a poor customer experience as the associates werent welcoming.
EXCELLENT EXPERIENCE!!! We are true foodies in town from Pittsburgh and we can honestly say, so far Matt s Burger Lab is our favorite food in Toronto . Chef Can and Server Merve were super friendly and made the experience even better! We will be back!!
The best burger I have tried in downtown Toronto. Very tasty and fresh. The gentleman at the cash counter very kind and polite.
Some friends and I were in town for a concert and decided to stop at a local eatery!!! Im glad we made the decision to come here.. It was our first time eating here and I promise it wont be our last!!! The food was Beyond AMAZING!!! I had the supreme burger, sweet potato fries with the habanero sauce on the side, and when I tell you my burger was cooked to perfection and the sauces just took it over the top!!! My friend had the veggie burger, he said it was so good he thought he was eating meat ... So good that he ordered another veggie burger and fries to go lol.. My other friend had the Sunday special and he enjoyed it as well!!! I will definitely visit again the next time Im in town Wheelchair accessibility: Not wheelchair accessible
now THATS a poutine! *EDIT* It pains me to say the poutine recipe has changes and the quality has shifted terribly. The fries are usually unndercooked or sometimes frozen and my faith in Matt s burger lab has been fractured. When ordering online it states there will be no fee but upon checkout it adds a $2 fee with no explanation wether it s the fault of google or the business I do not know but it is practices like this that make me completely lose faith in a business. They also respond to the negative reviews with excuses instead Of taking responsibility when an order is lacking quality. Buyer beware.
Delicious burgers and fries. Dietary restrictions: Halal Food : 5/5 |
Avoid this burger place at all costs. Having soggy French fries like that should be a crime against humanity... seriously. This place was just horrible both burger and fries. It smelt good from the outside but having a meal from there I was border line disgusted. I really dont know how this place can afford to be a float in downtown Toronto..
They allow people with pet dogs in the dinning area, absolutely disgusting and unsanitary. Edit: do you think Id be complaining about service dogs here? Ive specified in my review that pet dogs are allowed, as per staff. If youre breaking the laws, at least own it.
Hi..i love the food and service!!! Soo tasty and the staff are so nice and approachable..especially Elif and Harvn!!! Great job!!! Recommended dishes
Burgers look really cool, but they re just okay. I d say 3.5. Fries and onion rings were dece
GREAT burgers. My first time here and I got the beef bacon smash with fries. It was sooo tasty, you can tell the quality of their meat is high quality. The vibe in there is very good, lots of space to sit and eat, inviting and very clean. Also, AMAZING service from Mary, she is super friendly and very helpful. I got to chill for a bit, eat lunch, do my laptop work and chat with Mary a bit. GREAT EXPERIENCE. Thank you for the great lunch.
Love ella, love the food, she grabbed us waters without us even asking! We love Matt s!
Best burger ever
Awesome burgers with friendly staff.Thanks Elif !
Ive been to this burger spot hundreds of times, and it never disappoints! The burgers are always top-notch, and the atmosphere is great. Special shoutout to Merye for her phenomenal customer service, she truly makes the experience even better. A solid 10/10!
The first day I came Monday had two burger Oklahoma style its was amazing and the server cash merve. she is very kind and good customer service. The place is really good the vibes and atmosphere. I really recommended this place. Food
Great food..good service
Worst poutine Ive ever had. The gravy was weird and oversaturated. Burger (Oklahoma Smash) was ok, but still disappointing, somehow. They forgot my order and took 30 mins to get me my food. Food : 1/5
Food OK but I thought the girl taking my order was mute she didnt greet me and I was the only person there she just looked at me with a blank look making me very uncomfortable am I asking to much for some basic service, disappointed!!!
Tried Matt s burger for the first time today and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quick bite. The bacon cheeseburger was amazing, very Big Mac-esque but with a fresh and juicy patty!
UNBELIEVABLY delicious burger and FRESH cut fries!!!!!! Will definitely be returning
Burger pretty good...also good choice of beers available...the service was exceptional the lady behind the cash named Elif was exceptionally friendly helped me make a choice of burger she was super pleasant i would definitely go back!
They could have dressed the burger up a little more.
This was our 2nd visit to this location (Queen Street). First time around it took a while for the food to be made and we nearly spent 20-25 mins waiting for the food after ordering in person. Today was the 2nd time we came to this location, however since the first time took a while when ordering in person we decided to order online and pick it up. We arrived about 25 mins after the order was placed online. There was no one at the counter and after repeatedly saying hello, someone from the back came to serve us. When we gave the order number, the staff mentioned that they didn t see the order and they did not begin preparing it. They did offer extra side for the inconvenience. The food did taste good the first time we came to this location but the service requires significant improvement.
Must try! Really good taste. Food
The bun arrived squished, too soft, and lacking flavor. Unfortunately, this burger is not worth the money. The meat was overcooked, and there was too little sauce. I expected much more for the price
I was told that the in-store prices are different from the website??? Please explain why.
Open until 2am. Current specials right now as of Summer 2024. Had the Monday special burger was pretty good. Gotta ask for extra saucy next time Food : 5/5
Best milkshake Ive ever had
Dip was very runny and the washroom code on the receipt doesn t work. I am not impressed. People came after me had gotten their 1st. I order $12.99 special. I am not impressed
Good halal burger to eat.
Very good burger, has cool science stickers everywhere.
Guys, this place is no joke. You have to try it out. Their burgers are affordable and SUPER DELICIOUS. I am now a diehard fan of Matts burger lab.
They stole my money through uber eats tsk tsk
Burger was gross and shake was terrible. Ordered a nesquik and could barely taste any. They also gave me a huge paper straw that was useless. And I can t even get a refund because I ordered through Uber Eats. You ve been warned.
The burger was delicious. My poutine wasnt the best, although I will go back.
I tried this place only 2 times. I m really a foodie and this place has really good smash burgers. I don t think I d really second guess this place at all if I was near trying to find something good. 10/10 for me fries were really good too
Really good burgers! The patty was juicy and the bun was buttery. Will come back again many times over.
Love the sweet potato fries! They re my go-to cheat meal
Really poor milkshake. It contained more whipped cream than ice cream - which is odd because milkshakes are meant to be made from only two ingredients: milk and ice cream. For $7 plus tax and tip, I could buy a litre of milk and a carton of ice cream, so why did it taste like my shake contained neither? As another reviewer said, it was like a cup of foam.
We went to burger lab around 11pm on March 23 and the server was really nice and the food was SO good and very reasonably priced
This food was awesome it was well seasoned flavorful you want a great smash burger go here the picture show no justice but the food is really good
Admittedly we were at a weird time so it was pretty quiet but burger was excellent and service was great. Wish they had a straight chocolate shake.
Quick bite for $5 from the daily menu. It was garnished with impeccable flavourful cabbage slaw and pickles. I will definitely try another item because its very fresh and reasonably priced.
Great burger, great service. Would come back.
Burger was not cooked properly poutine is absolutely disgusting
Great food, environment, and experience. We went there during launch time it wasn t very busy at that time. Washrooms are customers only :(
YIKES, my first visit will be my last visit. So much potential the staff I spoke with was rude.
In the Ancient world, philosophers had a unique process to decide whether an idea was good. They discussed the idea drunk and then they discussed it sober. I have applied this tried-and-true process to the burgers at Matts Burger Lab. I have eaten burgers there drunk and I have eaten burgers there sober. These burgers pass the Ancient world test with flying colours. Not only do these burgers taste delicious, but they are also not too greasy and dont leave you filled with regrets an hour later. The meat is soft and savoury. Buns are 10/10. Toppings are fresh and tasty. As if it werent enough, Matts Burger Lab offers daily deals that are just absolute bargains. Whoever decides the pricing should be running the Canadian economy. Additionally, the staff is very friendly and helpful in making decisions. They are my personal consultants when I struggle over what to decide because everything looks delicious. Finally, Matts Burger Lab has great opening hours, which is why I was able to run the Ancient world test. Overall, I love giving my money to Matts Burger Lab and this fine establishment is one of these places that make free-market capitalism so glorious. Very rarely do I feel so strongly about a burger place, but Matts Burger Lab deserves everyones repeat business.
You buy the burger from a tiny little counter on the second floor of this restaurant which feels very inefficient and inaccessible. Food was good, burger was huge and lots of fries.
One of the best smash burgers Ive ever had. Great food. Had the quantum is back burger.
My very first non meat burger. While I still.prefer meat the taste and texture was really close to the real thing. I highly recommend it. The atmosphere was great. The young blond hair girl working the till was very nice and friendly. She is a new comer to the country and a wonderful person.
I had a bit of a disappointing experience. Its an expensive place, expect to pay almost $30 for a burger combo and the quality doesnt reflect the price. I got take-out and realized only when I got home that they got my order wrong, and even skimped on the fries. While they had offered to remake it, I didnt feel like going back. It wasnt worth it. I just ate it as is and tbh it didnt even taste all that great. Its not a place Id recommend. Wheelchair accessibility: Not accessible
Love this place! The karma is such a good one!
Walked in for the advised special. I waited 30mins, all while watching them fill the delivery orders, before finally being asked to wait longer still. Good food, terrible service. It has now been 40 mins.. I have never waited so long for a hamburger in all my life. I ordered before a half dozen other people who all got their orders before me.
The Smashed beef bacon burger was excellent, cooked to perfection and contained a generous amount of sauce. It was fantastic. Definitely recommend.
I really like their deals. I pass on Monday and saw they offer burger for only 5! And the taste is great too. What better can you get for this price? I am happy that this place is near my house and would check their other burger deals! Also, the people who operate it are very nice!
I wish I could have taken a picture! We got a big order for a student film project. The service was absolutely amazing, everyone was very friendly and helpful. I spoke to the manager so we could have the order for pickup, and she made the process really easy. I was struggling to find a place that offered gluten-free options AND vegetarian options, and they just had it all. The burgers were soooo tasty, my team really loved them. I would definitely recommend this place for all occasions, and we will love to order from them again!! Vegetarian options: Available Dietary restrictions: GF Available
The best smashburger in town
The service is impeccable and their onion rings are to die for.
I ordered chicken spicy cheese chicken burger and tenders with fries ..these are one of the worst food I ever had ..it s so oily and smells bad ..the burger isn t spicy at all .. fries and tenders are literally burnt and the battering for the tenders not even sticks to it probably the moment I started biting it the batter slides away because it s socked in oil ..definitely not recommend it ..
The food is absolutely amazing but the service was so bad. I was the only person at the restaurant and it took me 20+ minutes for my food to come. The prices are also crazy and they didn t give a lot of fries. So while it did taste very good it was not a great experience
Matts Burger Lab is your destination for the best kind of burgers in the area ! Located right in the heart of Downtown Toronto on Queen and Dufferin Street, Matts Burger Lab is your destination for all things with meat and chicken. The menu is pretty simple as you do have the ability to have a single burger combo or a Double Burger Combo. You do have a choice to have onion rings or fries and you get a drink as well. There is a wide selection of specialty burgers as well that is on the menu. They all come in all shapes and sizes and have a wide variety of ingredients to choose from. The staff are pleasant to talk to and are nice to assist you with the menu. The only downfall I find about the restaurant that is raising a lot of red flags is the atmosphere is not so good and you do have the out of the ordinary person that walks into the restaurant asking for food. I think this restaurant is best for late night eats and I am sure that is where the business lies.. The burgers taste great, as they are grilled to perfection.
The Beef Bacon cheese smash amazing.Best burger Ive had in a long time 10/10 easily . The biscoff milkshake is really good too! They have daily special I couldnt belive the price . Definitely coming here again.
best late night burger ever in the town
Arrive at 5:45. we ordered on site. only wait for around 3-5 mins for our food. The cheese burger with extra patty taste amazing
Waited almost 30 minutes just for a milkshake
Good experience. Amazing friendly customer service! Fantastic sweet potato fries, burger was good but no tomatoes as an option is no bueno
Kinda cool spot, but not wheelchair accessible to go to the top to order as its mainly stairs BUT I think they can come down to you if thats the case. Smash burger was okay and so were fries. The cost vs quality just didnt do it for me as a combo came out to a whopping $18 with nothing standing out. So thats why I took off 2 stars as the quality and the associated cost does not match up for me. Even the deal of the day burger; when I asked them to explain what a nugget burger was they said it was literally a burger with chicken nuggets replacing the patty Parking: Free street parking down the road after 5pm
Fresh meat and fresh fries? Yes sign me up! Great mash burgers, not too thick or thin. I had the Oklahoma burger (only cheese and grilled onions). Also, the atmosphere is great! Vegetarian options: They have vegan and vegetarian options.
There are much better in the city (Lucy, Rudy, Holy Chuck). The patties are overcooked and the sauce is underflavoured. French fries are limp and soggy. Id skip this one, atleast at this location.
Food is pretty good! I tried their fries, burgers, sweet potatoes fries, milk shakes, and poutine before. Poutine is meh, but the rest is not bad. Service though, they don t really speak English. So they often don t understand you or worse, misunderstand what you want to order. That s that.
Food is fire
The burgers have an excellent flavor, highly recommended
The best burger I ever eaten and my son had a different burger and he was raving about his too, compliments to the chef, the bun was perfection too
Great food great place
Really delicious burger. Will be back again soon.
This was a welcomed and absolutely delicious hangover cure. Fantastic work.
Been wanting to come here since they closed their hamilton location and let me tell you, so so worth it. We came a little early around 10:50 before they opened but the guy let us in since it was a little cold. the place has such a cool vibe and the employees are laid back. Our food took a bit longer but that s because they just opened, so understandable. The burgers just hit the spot! They re so filling and juicy I wish they brought their hamilton location back, i would be here for lunch everyday! the fries and onion rings were super crispy and were still crispy by the end of my meal (something that s hard for every place to get right). No better burger spot than this.
We went there for dinner and ordered a smash burger, chicken burger, sweet potato fries, and cajun fries. The food is delicious for only two bites; everything was extremely greasy with no flavour, not even salt. We both got upset stomachs the following day.
They raise the price of their buy get one deals on uber eats so its not actually buy one at regular price get one free- its sneaky
Clean place, good customer service. Burger well put together. Meat didnt taste the best. Fries werent bad. The poutine was regretful. So much gravy! Is it a soup? Where is the spoon haha. At least it had lots of cheese
The food looked really good, but just tasted *pretty good*. The fries were not crispy, and honestly tasted like frozen supermarket fries out of the oven but with added seasoning. Well seasoned, but limp and uninspired. The burger was okay, you can definitely taste the quality and time put into it. A bit heavy on the sauce, which - as a result - was a sort of invasive flavour. I will say I loved how many pickles were on the burger . Everything was well seasoned and the service was really nice :) It may also have just not entirely been for my taste, so I hope someone likes what they sees and even more enjoys what they taste!
Generally unremarkable, especially considering other smash burger options in Toronto that offer similar or better value. Just OK overall, but to be fair I did get the most basic menu item. Interesting interior though.
Nice place to gave a meal and dine in. Or on the go. While waiting for the bus or street car.
Great burger spot. The poutine and fries are alright. Added bonus for having a halal menu.
The Matt poutine is satisfying and the medium size portion is plenty. At 6 pm on a weeknight, there were plenty of seats available. The wait time for this order was about 15 - 20 minutes. If youre transferring busses as this intersection and need to muster up the energy to go on, this is a pretty good refueling stop. Not sure about parking though, doesnt not seem like there are any easily accessible spots within distance.
Quality and Taste for sure. A bit pricey but they definitely strive to give you something for it. Their Dogs and Burgers are extremely tasty, but, holy moly, the Poutine is simply perfection. Even their packaging for delivery has been given consideration. Great Job
Pretty good burger. Fries are very meh....
I feel this place is overrated and the food is a bit expensive for its taste and quantity.
No clue where the 4.5 star rating comes from. The burgers are greasy, the sweet potato fries were ever more soggy and greasy. It took over 25 min to get our food. And there is no AC I do not recommend that place what so ever.
It was certainly an underwhelming experience. For the price you pay for 2 burgers, 52 bucks, it s not worth it. The burger is ok but not great. You can have a better dining experience if you just hit up a&w. My suggestion is to skip this place.
Just very underwhelming, tastes like McDonald s, except Macdonald s was more moist and less bun. The gravy was basically salty water and the sweet potato friends looked like, tasted like and felt like they came out of a tub of grease. We left then there, no worth taking home. Plus the price person 50$ for one burger was disgusting.
The best burger I haven t eaten in a long time !! All homemade , fresh ingredients, taste great!! You must try it !!
Wow!! I was there and i had two cheese burgers with one medium fries to share with my husband. Prices are reasonable, the portions are huge and the food is delicious!! Also service was friendly as well, I will be back .
Stopped because of a smashburger deal, it was good. Ordered a large fries ($10) in hopes of some crispy salty goodness, instead we got dry, really overseasoned mealy potatoes. Moral of the story is dont order the fries.
Has the double smash burger. Taste was pretty good but nothing to write home about. Service was average.
The burger was amazing, and the price even better. Got the Saturday deal, 4 burgers for $30 and were quite filling. Where else can you get a deal like this.
Good juicy meat, but the burgers and fries were both cold. Nothing to go back every time you crave a burger. Way better than McDonalds but not more than that. I wish they served the food warmer :(
The fries are so good!. The burger with the special sauce exceeded expectations.
If you order through Uber, your budget will not come as you request, and there is no section for special instructions. TO AVOID THAT, even if you go in, and there is only one other person in line to order. your order will not be correct. If you call to make sure that you cam get the order you want, the cashier will not understand and hang up on you. This has been the case ever since the owners stopped being there daily. If you want a burger not How you Want it, but However they feel like making it atm- this is your place! Matts you should be so thankful you made it through the pandemic and Do Better. I will not give you more chance to mess up something so simple as burger toppings.
Great food, but calling to order is such an ordeal every single time.
The best burger Ive ever had!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Staff is kind the facility is okay but I think it needs some renovations menu is a little pricey when it isnt coupon days nice restaurant layout.
On my second visit to this restaurant tonight, the cashier was very rude. She couldn t understand me and had trouble taking my order. Her colleague who seemed more experienced and who is the usual server overheard my order and helped her to place it properly. In the end, the blonde girl ended up charging me extra for two sauces I didn t need. The charge isn t the issue, it was the service. Quite annoying, not pleased at all.
Food looked ok. Food tasted old and meh. Not worth the money. I did let them know that it wasnt very good when I had to return to the person who took my order because the burger toppings were incorrect, but they didnt care. We will most definitely not being going back to any matts burger lab.
We found this place by accident and we were very pleasantly surprised, excellent service, excellent food and very good atmosphere, highly recommended.
This place has one of the best burgers in the are without any doubt. Te ekkür ederim .
Try salted fish bokit
First they treat you like family then they give you one of the best burger and chicken sandwiches in the city
The Chicken burger had too many pickles, made it very tangy. Quality and the service was very good but pickles ruined it for me. Not sure if thats the case always
Excellent service. The staff at this location, especially the server/cashier are super friendly and take good care of their patrons. The menu is simple and the food is high quality. Just check out the pictures below.
Its a weird layout, its a hell of a long wait for a burg, but man does that burg hit.
Amazing burgers! Restaurant quality but still served quickly and made to order. Great staff and well maintained space. Highly recommended if youre looking for a quick bite.
This place was okay. The fries saved the day. Very reasonable pricing. Medium fries (enough for two people), a drink and two original burgers for ~$35. The layout is annoying. Why not have the cashier on the ground floor? At least during non peak hours. The fries were spectacular. The burger was dry, and the brioche bun makes it even more dry. The pickles tasted like they were canned or commercially made. They do not have real bacon, only beef bacon . Not sure how you can operate a burger joint without bacon. This would help alleviate some of true dryness of the burger (bacon fat, etc). Recommendation to management: 1. At least install an ordering terminal on the ground level. 2. Mustard packets should be available 3. Chopped in-house pickles are cheap to make This place is a somewhere between Five Guys and Shake Shack.
It s so good! One of our favorite places to eat burgers 2 chicken burgers, onion rings, dipping sauces and 2 vanilla milkshakes for $25
So yummy. Breaking Bad yummy!! Big fan of both
Awesome burger
Great food, great service, and the thursday deal/price is unbeatable. Halal too!
Food Zoe s great staff is always exceptional. I always have a pleasant experience going on at mats burger lab
Excellent service, super tasty food and great atmosphere!
I find this a great spot with a lot of original burgers that deserves a lot more attention in the Parkdale area. It isnt usually too busy, and theres a lot of good daily deals that work with those on a budget. Ordered the spicy fried chicken with cheese and enjoyed it. Encourage locals or those passing by to try this place out!
Delicious burger beef !!!and amazing cheddar onion rings and Fries so crunchy!! and there are good promotions
Burger Lab is a true gem! The creativity in crafting unique burgers is unmatched, offering a delightful twist to classic favorites. Impeccable service and a trendy atmosphere enhance the overall dining experience. Each bite is a burst of flavor, showcasing the quality and innovation that sets Burger Lab apart. A top-notch spot for burger enthusiasts highly recommended!
Their food is really good. They have daily deals and have also offer a pup patty for dogs. I really enjoy the food, service, and atmosphere.
I ordered Mac n cheese bites along with a veggie burger on DoorDash and I was delivered chicken nuggets instead of the Mac n cheese bites. I m vegetarian and this store made me bite into something against my beliefs. I feel absolutely disgusted that a mistake like this was made
I been coming here for the past 2 years and recommended the place to my friends. We decided to get the oklahoma special and ordered 9 burgers. Let me say i never had a burger that salty in my life . . My friends couldn t eat it. They were awful. . again i been coming by here every other Thursday and this time was a huge disappointment, specially when i called back and complained about it. They literally said that the manager cant do anything for us because thats the way they make their burgers. But let me tell you out of the 9 burgers there was half that were salty and the other half just super salt salty from the first bite . .
Amazing hamburger, super friendly customer service and to make the experience even better their playlist is so cool!! I am planning to come back every Thursday for the bacon cheeseburger promotion.
