Although I admittedly haven't tried the burgers here, the poutine is quite good is a few dollars cheaper. I had the Spicy Poutine - which, to my standards is not particularly spicy, however they do add a chipotle mayo which gives it a bit of a kick. It is combined with cheese curds, gravy and caramelized onion. I'm not sure I agree with the combination, but the poutine itself is quite decent. Cheese curds melt just perfectly and it's large enough portion that you can get full on a premium poutine. Not the best I've ever had, but not terrible.
At first I was skeptical I didn't expect it to be so good ! I got the Baja vegetarian burger it was delicious with the chipotle mayo, I also got onion rings wish was tasty as well. My only concern would be that they separate the vegetarian food from the non vegetarian. I recall seeing in the fryer pan where they fried the onion rings a piece of chicken and I didn't like that. As well as the patty section I hope that they do separate the vegetarian patties from the non vegetarian ( from the piece that they collect the patty in to the area where they grill it)
For a mall burger this place is pretty good, though it is on the pricier side. In my opinion it was worth every penny because of the food quality.
They cook your burger either medium rare or well done, right in front of you so you can see and smell the grilling happening. There's a huge selection of burger types with different toppings. I got the crazy burger or something, it had a bunch of toppings with barbeque sauce and jalapenos - I liked it! My SO got the spicy burger and he said he liked mine better. We both got a bacon poutine and it was high-sodium goodness, lol. I liked the poutine but I'd only order it again if I was really hungry.
So-so burgers, great rings!. I come here just for the onion rings. I am an onion ring addict. Having tried many different kinds, this is pretty good for mall food. The burgers aren't too much to write about. The few time's I've ordered them, they were quite dry. I will stick with the onion rings- they are delicious!
For a food court burger this was delicious!
Cheeseburger Combo. I really enjoyed my meal. Nice juicy, charbroiled burger, fresh toppings, fresh fries, great taste for fast food. A little on the pricey side, but you get what you pay for. A definite must try for burger fans!
One of the best in town. This isn't just good value, it's an excellent burger. The fact that they even ask you how you like it cooked is only the start. There's an organic option and lots of toppings to choose from.
Good burger, good fries, but not quite good enough to justify the price. The burgers keep getting smaller and smaller and smaller. Best mall burger by far.
Very delicious burger and poutine! The staff were also very kind and patient with me as I had never ordered here before and was unsure what to get.
Burger was nice and juicy and cooked perfectly. I find a lot of places that have poutine are way too salty, but this one was te perfect combination! Hands down one of the best I have had. Will definitely be returning here.
I’m impressed. I believe Big Smoke Burger is a cut above what you would expect from a food court. Delicious juicy fresh burger and great fries. A little seasoning in the patties and some BACON… and this joint could very well put the rest of the food court out of business.
Love the burger, except for the bun a little too toasted. Poutine was delicious
The veggie burger with fries was good in taste! I was surprised. I would order again!
Fresh burgers are always a treat! I don't know why but grabbing one of these burgers feels like I'm eating a healthier burger compared to McD's/KingBurger/etc. It might be all in my head though, it just *feels* healthier. Cheers
Tried this place for the first time today and had their signature burger. It was pretty good considering its fast food but it's definitely on the pricey side. Quality is similar or a small step up from A&W. I'd recommend it if you're downtown and craving a burger. Skip the regular fries though and maybe get the sweet potato ones.
