best burgers in Toronto

[kricket]

name your burger joints

[kricket]

i say Dairy Freeze on st.clair and calidonia makes the best burgers in Toronto

and no its not dairy queen Dairy freeze only has that one

[phucyall]

I personally love "Lick's". Their burgers are huge and taste like real meat.
For other types of sandwiches, mostly Italian style, I would say California Sandwiches at Queensway and 427 (right next to Lick's actually). I've just found about it recently, but the sandwiches are huge and it tastes amazing. Not too expensive either.

Johnny's Burger! BEST IN TO! no contest!

Yup, Johnny burgers all the way!

Roxy's in Oakville

[EL820]

Best burger: Loblaws Prime Rib Thick&Juicy patty, cooked at home, topped with grilled portabella mushrooms, sauteed onions, sweet pickled cucumbers, bbq sauce, ketchep, and mayonnaise. Hmmmmmmm.



Johnny is located at thw SE corner of Sheppard & Victoria Park.

Apache burgers (right by kipling stn)
Steak Queen (VP and lawrence)
Johnnys (VP and Sheppard)

but the winner is Casey's 3 cheese bison burger. best burger ive had anywhere period. try it

Johnny's Burger! BEST IN TO! no contest!

+1 No contest here folks. For all those that don't agree, it's because you haven't tried them. It's at Victoria Park & Sheppard in Scarborough.

[yu130960]

I have tried all of the above and nothing even comes close to the best burger (not really a burger joint) which is Ki (yes the Sushi restaurant at BCE place). I challenge any one to go there and dispute it. I have brought 6 people there and there wasn't even a debate.

Cheers.

Square boys!

[Mulder and Scully]

Anyone who says Johnny's obviously hasn't tried a whole lot of burgers in their life.

Johnny's uses plain frozen patties and buns you can buy in any supermarket and they're always undercooked. Their only redeeming feature are the fried onions, but are you really going to eat a sh*t burger just because the place also has fried onions?

[acinomy]

Burger Palace. Finch and Wardern. It is located inside the mall where there are zellars and price chopper.

[The_One]

i say Dairy Freeze on st.clair and calidonia makes the best burgers in Toronto

and no its not dairy queen Dairy freeze only has that one

I use to live a block from this place for 10 years and never tried them. Do they make their own patties?

[Steve Sanders]

Johnnys.

Yeah they use frozen burger patties and they use the best ones. A homeburger doesn't mean it's better a than frozen one. They're still better than Licks, Hero's and South Street.

Wimpys would be 2nd on my list.

[jimi]

Johnny's burgers are nothing special.
People who think they've got the best burger in Toronto obviously have no idea what they're talking about. I'll agree that they're a classic Scarborough burger joint, but that doesn't make them anywhere close to the best.

If you want a way better burger, try Fat Phil's on Marlee, Allen's on the Danforth, or Utopia on College (these guys are hit and miss). Those are three of the best in Toronto, hands down.

[skategoat]

I can only speak for the West End.

Apache Burger is living on past glory. It's burgers are now very ordinary. Fries suck too.

Lick's is okay but I cannot stand the forced mirth. The singing and yelling drives me nuts.

I like Magoo's in the plaza on Dundas at Royal York. It has the Bruno's in it. Great patties and fresh condiments.

The burger itself is only one part, others are the price and the feel you get while ordering that burger. Also let me point out that some like the simple greasy burger (without lettuce ;)) while some like the more upscale ones with the upscale topics...so it depends on ur taste...

[501]

thanks i'll check out johnnys this week... im in scarborough anyways :)

[dell]

Apache kinda sucks now. C&Dubbs on Dundas a few blocks east of Dixie in Mississauga is good. They have these massive Sumo and Super Sumo burgers.
If your near the airport theres Zets Diner on Airport Road near the flight training center.

[jayboogie]

Zet's is the best imo as well. It doesn't get much hype on here, since it's down by the airport, but the place gets absolutely packed come lunch time when everyone working around the area go there for lunch.

Johnny's is not too bad, the buns they use absolutely suck though, often times they have a lot of flour stuck on them, which makes it nasty. Still, it's hardly close to being the best burger around in Toronto.

[duckdown]

C&Dubbs has attitude, I don't like the service there.

Zet's over Apache

[el_diablo007]

I agree with props given to Zets by the airport, great burger, just not a great location IMO.

[Syn3rgy]

Apache burgers are disgusting. The taste of a burger is all in the way you prepare it. The best base burger meat is the President Choice ones you can get 8 for $10. They're so good as-is or with a little ketchup or mayo/mustard. I use the Diana's Sauce... oh so good.

[gordholio]

I read that McDonald's is coming out with a 1/3 pound hamburger in the States.
Hopefully they'll leave out the special sauce and the excessive amount of mayonnaise and put a tomatoes, pickles and onions on it. :)

Everytime I go to Rotten Ronnies, they always smother my hamburger (Big Extra) with tons of mayonnaise, even when I tell them to go light on it.

[Jaytee]

I think Johnnys is good but overrated.

Best burger I had was EDO's Kobe Beef Burger

(Chef Ryo’s special recipe, Black Sesame Sauce and EDO Wasabi Mayo)

[wrigley]

Is it me or has the taste and quality at Licks gone downhill, since they started using frozen burgers?

If you are ever in the Whitby/Oshawa area Star Burger on Brock St and Manning, is the best I have had in a while!

[duckdown]

Is it me or has the taste and quality at Licks gone downhill, since they started using frozen burgers?

Yup. They've really gotten cheap with the Bacon & Cheese too if you order the Banquet Burger

[Mike_wang]

Burger Shoppe on Queen and Broadview (near Jillys the strip joint)

New place I think, the burgers there taste absolutely divine, to all the burger lovers out there give it a shot. You won't be disappointed, they use fresh ingrediants and no chemical/frozen crap. Like cmon, the lettuce was CRISPY not wet and soggy. To me that was the first time I've tasted a moist patty not those dried ones from Mcdonalds or other crappy diners. The staff are nice too, nice comfy atmosphere not a fast paced one.

A tad expensive for just a burger but the combos are worth it, they have fresh cut fries :DDDD

[GemInite]

I agree they are always undercooked. The burgers don't taste that good.

Sure it's good at 3am after a long night of partying, but at that time, anything fresh is good.

It's like saying pizza pizza has the best pizza

[SoGood]

tried out the burger shoppe yesterday...
not bad, but i did notice a bit of an after taste after the first bite, it might be from the grill cuz its so fresh
a tad bit on expensive side, 6.22 for classic(basic) burger

onion rings look huge and delicioius tho...it was quite packed when i was there, the seating is limited.

[LordHumongous]

Johnnys.

Yeah they use frozen burger patties and they use the best ones. A homeburger doesn't mean it's better a than frozen one. They're still better than Licks, Hero's and South Street.

I know a little place that serves the best burgers in town. It's hard to find, quite out of the beaten path in fact, open only seasonally, usually only on the weekends too. But the burgers are SOOOO good. This burger joint is called "My Back Yard".

Maybe that explains it. People rave about Johnnys, but I went and thought they were good, but nothing special. I would take a Licks burger over Johnnys any day.

Burger Palace. Finch and Wardern. It is located inside the mall where there are zellars and price chopper.

Previous thread a lot of people mentioned this place. I've been in that mall umpteen times (wife works in that mall) but never had their burgers. Well, I had one, and to say the least, I was disappointed. Not because it was bad, but the hype made it like it would be the best burger I've ever tasted, and it wasn't.

Yes, it was nice that the texas burger used Canadian Back Bacon, but so what, that didn't make the burger magically the best. I'd rather have burgers from lots of other places, like Groucho's, Hero's and Burger Shack to name a few. Heck I even like the Kelsey's Peppercorn burger better than this one. I don't recommend this for anyone as the best burger at all.

To be fair...it's all in the eye of the beholder. I don't know if any burger is necessarily the 'best'. There are just ones that I do enjoy more than others.

I agree. I went there to try it out for myself and was disappointed. The texas burger was meh and the fries were undercooked. I still prefer Johnny's.

[Kranberry]

Fair enough, but I still wouldn't say it was one of the better burgers I have had. I would just say that it was average, better than say McDonald's but just average and not worth going to get. Nothing special, and I'd get it if I had a hankering for a hamburger and was already there, but I wouldn't specifically drive there, where I would with other places.

[KorruptioN]

I'm surprised nobody's mentioned Shamrock Burgers. They are pretty famous in the east end.

I've been saying this for years, Johnny's is OVERRATED, their burgers have gotten smaller, prices have gone up, and quality has gone way down.

Somehow, it has become cool to say Johnny's has the best burgers.

Hero Burgers, a joint just West of Bathurst on Queen. Big juicy burgers at a price.

[kleptodathief]

kinda OT, but duz anyone have a good HOMEMADE burger patty recipe they'd reccamend on the net?:)

[afici0nad0]

hmm, i'll need to hit up burger palace...

[kill_bill2]

How about Dangerous Dan's at Queen & Broadview? Not that I could ever try and finish the Quandruple C (colossal colon clogger combo). A 24 oz burger servered with a quarter pound of cheese, quarter pound of bacon and 2 fried eggs. The combo also comes with a large shake and a small poutine.

[sergiepopov]

I heard Hero is good on HWY 7 and Leslie

[afici0nad0]

I heard Hero is good on HWY 7 and Leslie

i ate there last year. i wasn't impressed. it was good, but, didn't feel like it was worth the $6 for the burger alone.

i'm down to attack the CCCC too...

[duckdown]

Johnny's isn't even that good, I'll agree on that.

Hero burgers are undercooked, overpriced, and greasy.

Licks is great..

South St. Burger sucks royally, I think this is the worst of them all. Dry, flavorless, and very small. Oh, let's not forget overpriced. A dollar for cheese and a dollar for bacon, EACH? pfft

C&Dubbs.. Very greasy, and their employees are rude..

So out of these ones I'll choose Licks as my favorite

[onenut]

Edo's BBQ, it is absolutely amazing! They put honey glaze and a slice of extra thick chedder cheese!

[kampui]

Real McCoy out in the east end for sure. Their Mojo burger & homeburgers are huge and awesome. Hole in the wall joint, but it's usually those types of places that have the great stuff!

hand him money, he gives me change.
i find seat, food is prepared, i get up get food, eat, trash and im out.

I dont ask for the time, or directions, or even make any general chit chat.

[xopt1js]

Steak Queen
Harry's Drive -In
John Anderson's (R.I.P.)

[bobmans]

Dairy Freeze at Calidonia and St. Clair is pretty good overall, their onion rings are great, the fries are okay; they also make one of the best 'steak on a bun' in the west end. Cheap and fast "in and out" type place that you go when you are considering a Havey's type of meal.

[ruckus245]

Only 1 nom for Magoo's? Best burger I've had so far.

Never liked Apache.

And chains shouldn't count (Licks, Hero, etc.)...

Anyways, any more reviews for Hal's? I've been thinking of checking them out.

that combo you mentioned is 22 bucks.. O_O

[tanmanwayne]

holy **** that insane.. I googled and they actually have a site!!

that combo you mentioned is 22 bucks.. O_O

Still...when you think about it...with the absolute AMOUNT of food...I can see why it costs $22.00+

1.5 LBS of meat? That plus something like 1 lbs of bacon and cheese? Something I'd like to try (note...I'd like, but don't know if I ever could), but could definitely not do everyday. :cheesygri

[MrDisco]

i had johnny rockets (sp?..that place in vaughan mills) the other day. i ordered the double burger which is a clone of the big mac but w/o the middle bun and it had an extra cheese slice. It wasn't bad..tasted like a home made burger, the fries were ok, and free refills on pop is always nice. however the bill..OMG was it expensive. Something like $16 for the above combo. definitely way overpriced!

The best Hamburger in Toronto belongs to Wimpy's Diner.

A huge 10 oz charboiled on the best bun that I have tasted, let's face it it's the bun that makes the burger and this is the best I have tasted yet!

Try it folks with their fries or Onion Rings, many locations in the GTA. I frequent the Bathurst/Sheppard location.

You won't be dissapointed.

This thread is one of the saddest things I've read.

I grew up in Toronto and I am a proud Canadian, but living in New York for the past two years has made me very depressed about the culinary options in Toronto.

Manhattan has about 1.5 million people, and Toronto (not even GTA) has 2.5. Yet none of the burger places mentioned here (I have been to all of them, and they are all very good in Toronto standard, in all honesty) would even make the top 15 list in Manhattan for a burger. I am dead serious.

It's a little sad. And it makes me dread moving back to Toronto, which I plan to do soon...

i really like Hero burgers, not so much their onion rings. haven't yet tried anything else on the menu.

What are the best toppings for Hero? There are so many to choose from, and many of them sound exotic...
