Love Fatburger. So many different options and you can sub any kind of patty. The milkshakes and fries are really great too and it's got an old diner kind of vibe. Overall a good find.

I was craving a serious burger and have been meaning to try Fatburger for quite some time - I decided today was the day. I stopped in just before lunch to hopefully beat the rush and I'm glad I did as my burger took nearly 20min to prepare. I went with the Double Fat Cheese ($11.99) which consisted of two 1/3lb patties, and all the fixings (minus mustard). The burger felt big but I would hope so based on the price. The patties were good quality and felt like a substantial amount of beef. I did end adding some seasoning salt to the meat as I find most places underseason beef patties. Other than that I found the burger itself to be pretty tasty. I did leave out the mustard as I personally don't like tart or tangy tastes and although the mustard was left out, the pickles are quite strong in flavor and almost made it taste as though I ordered extra mustard. Overall a decent burger and in my mind on par or a bit better than five guys type burger. The price however is one that will keep me from coming here regularly.

Venue: Clean, modern diner look. Lots of seating available.
Staff: Friendly and efficient. We arrived during the downtown lunch rush. It was very busy - but we made our way through the line and placed our order in a blink. The staff bring your food to your table. - and it was out pretty quick. Lots of staff circling tables to clear away waste etc. We were greeted twice during our meal by staff to confirm how the food was tasting and if we need anything. Very nice touch for an express diner.
Food: fresh ingredients - burger patties were grilled to perfection. Good variety of toppings and sides. What can I say - we consumers like options! ;P *Also my friend wanted me to note the whip cream on her milk shake was real whip cream!
Some might feel its on the pricer side for a burger joint but after our experience, you are getting what you're paying for here. Pleasantly surprised first time customers! ;)
The only reason I am not giving this place a 5/5 is for 2 reasons (and I really struggled with this decision, because we did really enjoy ourselves BUT)..
a, I am hesitant to give 5/5 to corporate franchises in general. Call me a a bias local enthusiast - GUILTY AS CHARGED!
And
b, Glorified fast food dinners are trending right now and #Yeg is SWIMMING in so many burger joints with a similar concept.
