This place was so good! And like others have said, it's a hidden gem of a place found in the Westbrook mall food court. The beef is lean, local beef, and toppings such as cheese and sautéd mushrooms and onions are no extra charge! I got the 1/4lb for under $6 full loaded and the burger was juicy and the bun was just right! I think just bacon costs more. They also have amazing looking poutines which you can also get in varying sizes. The customer service was very good and I liked the small touch of giving tic tacs out for free for your post meal burger breath. Oh and they have cherry and Vanilla Coke! I'll be back for some poutine for sure and a burger!
Dragon's Lair Burger is probably my hubbie's favourite in Calgary but, I think the bun/meat ratio is a bit low unless you double the patty which means I can't finish BUT, I don't like reheated burger so, it feels like a waste. The burger patty is very tasty, topping choices are excellent and the fries are solidly good. Even better that one order of poutine is enough for both kids.
The Westbrook Mall is a bit...sketchy. Also, limits DLB to mall hours. As such, the location is unfortunate and holding back overall appeal...in my opinion...
I love this place! My fiancee and I love to go here during sunday's (at least once a month) to enjoy a cheeseburger and their poutine (to die for!). I always get the dill pickle poutine, since I am a pickle addict LOL! The staff are extremely friendly and definitely knowledgeable when it comes to making the fries. Always super crispy and fresh! I highly suggest this place to anyone who is craving a burger or poutine while "recovering" from a Saturday night bon fire ;)
What a great spot !!! Staff are super friendly and the burgers are amazing ! Made to order and with all kinds of fresh toppings and sauces. We all loved it ! We tried regular burgers, veggie burgers, fries and sweet potato fries. We will be going back !
I visit at least once a month for my cheat meal. The burgers are extraordinary and the poutine is marvellous ;) The lettuce disappoints me, but .... It's lettuce.
I love this place and will continue to visit.
I feel like it doesn't belong in the Westbrook mall in the food court and would be a popular stand alone restaurant. Regardless this is one of my favourite burger places and you have my business for life.
They heated up the bun and melted the cheese on the patty- two basic things I look for for a good burger. Good homemade style burger with good choice of toppings for price ($4.95- 1/4lb cheese burger).
I really came to try the poutine, but was dissappointed as the fries were not home cut and the gravy not thick enough or very flavourful.
On the whole I would recommend this place for burger, but not fries/poutine, if you are in the area.

My favourite restaurant is always one that I haven’t tried before. I love going out to new places. So over the weekend we headed over to Westbrook mall, and enjoyed Dragon’s Lair, located in the food court.
Love that I can choose what to go on my burger. The staff were nice and quick.
I think the meat itself could use a bit of salt, unless you get the bacon on it.
The bun had a funny sandy feeling on it, but is unoticed in the oral cavity.
I really enjoyed my meal today, everything was quite well done for a place in a mall food court! I felt the bun was a little big for the burger and the gravy in the poutine tasted a little fake after a while. But who am I kidding? I will be back! They have quite an extensive menu.
Great burger. I popped in today to try their BurgerFest winning burger along with some poutine. The burger was great. The caramelized onion bacon jam added so much flavour. The poutine was good too, and the portion size was amazing. I'll be back.
