This food truck is nestled on Yahoo Park ( say what!?) next to a baseball field. No wonder I couldn't find it. Pearson Street is one great discovery. Sure there are other food trucks in the area but nothing beats their smash burgers and melts. One of the best affordable offerings east of Ottawa. I stumbled on to this find, while toggling tv channels and the owners appeared on CTV. If you have a chance watch their video! Their burgers rivals easily any specialty burger joints like Wahlberg, In and Our Burger, or local dives like Burger Priest, or Works. $-$$

The burger was on point with the large patty, delicious bacon and a great spicing to the beef, it just melted in my mouth.

Will def be going back for the great food and amazing staff.

Meatheads Grill opened up about 3 months ago (December 2019) and is already super popular. I can…read moresee why because the food was great. So Meatheads is inside the Quickie Mart on Watters. So just look for the Quickie and once you're inside you'll see the Meatheads in the corners. It's takeout only. Nowhere to sit and eat. Although they do have a couch to sit and wait. And wait you will, it took us over 30 minutes for our food. Lots of people phoned in their order or came in to order and left and came back. We just waited there, but we might phone in our order next time. I got the Kickin' Chicken Sandwich ($10) and made it a combo with fries and a can of pop (+$2). My mom got the Orleans Cheese Steak Sandwich ($15) and made it a combo with a poutine and a can of pop (+$4). My chicken sandwich was delicious. It was 2 pieces of breaded chicken tenders tossed in a spicy sauce on a bed of coleslaw, in a brioche bun. The menu said it comes with lettuce and tomatoes, but for some reason my sandwich was missing these ingredients. It was still really tasty, but I would have liked the extra vegetables. My fries overall were good, but some fries were kind of dry and hard. I enjoyed my mom's poutine a lot more because the cheese and gravy made the hard fries softer. Although the gravy tasted a bit fattier than I like, lol. I also had some of my mom's cheese steak and it was good too. It had cheese, mushrooms, onions, and pickles, in addition to the thinly sliced steak mixed in BBQ sauce. The bread was a bit like a baguette in density, which I liked because it didn't get soggy. I like how the containers were made of cardboard and are biodegradable. No styrofoam, yay! Service was friendly. The owner chatted with us a little. He is looking at opening a restaurant, as they are very busy and have pretty much outgrown their set up inside of the Quickie. His fiancee taking our orders was nice as well. Looking forward to trying their other items. They have specials not on their regular menu sometimes too. On the day we went it was fish and chips. Lots of free parking in the Quickie parking lot.

The poutine was my favorite. Every bite had me. The smash burger was cooked to perfection. For those dining in, it's a small spot with limited seating. And I always find burgers need to be eaten right away to ensure you get it hot. Overall this has been a go to spot for us when we are in this area. Keep creating awesome new duos

Got the beyond burger with added hot relish . so good, but on the heavier side. Bun was so fluffy and fresh. Messy so, make sure you have napkins nearby. The hand cut fries stole the show for me, paired with their in-house malt mayo. Also, tried the chipotle and honey mustard and both were amazing. They really nailed it with their sauces. Curly fries and dill broccoli salad was just OK, but Hubby gave them two thumbs up. It was a nice treat ...totally in a food coma .

Kinda feels like a semi-permanent establishment. Smash Daddy Burger - A double patty of flattened beef was delicious. It was a melange of flavours that worked very well. I wish the patty was more crispy so that there is more texture in the patty. Naked Fries - The spiced fries were one of the best fries I've had. Fries were super crispy with fluffy interior. There was a good amount of seasoning on the fries making it tasty in flavour and texture. Would come back just for this!

I would come back again.

The Short Version: Burgers and fries place. Smash burger was…read moretoo salty for my liking. Chicken burger was delicious. Fries portion was generous. The Long Version: My husband and I had lunch here. We shared a cheeseburger ($9.50), a chicken sandwich ($12.95) and an order of fries ($5). The cheeseburger was a smash burger with cheese, lettuce, pickles, onions and their burger sauce. There was too much sauce for my liking and the meat was too salty for my tastes, but other than that the burger was ok. The meat was smashed really thin and the edges were crispy. We enjoyed the chicken sandwich more. The chicken sandwich had a breaded chicken breast, coleslaw, pickles and chicken sauce. We got ours medium spice. It wasn't spicy at all, lol. The chicken was a good thickness and was tender and moist. We enjoyed this more than the cheeseburger. I liked that the bun they use is a plain bun without seeds in it. The buns were soft. The fries were a good portion size. I'm glad we shared one portion. They were hot and crispy and had the skins on. They were regular cut, not skinny, but not too thick. You order at the cash register, pay and they give you your order number. When your food is ready they call out your number and bring it to your table if you're dining in. When you're done, you throw out your own garbage and stack the empty tray on top of the garbage area. Service was pleasant and the food didn't take long. There are seats inside to dine in and also seats on the patio out front. There's a single universal washroom that is wheelchair accessible for the entire restaurant. Since the restaurant is small, I feel this was sufficient. It was clean. Street parking or paid parkade parking only. Review #187 (2025)

Cool place with some front window seats, 4 booths and a larger table that fits 10 or so people. Their specialty looks to be a juicy lucy aka patty stuff with cheese the melts when you cook it. I ended up getting a cheeseburger combo. The burgers are good. They're in tough competition with some really good burgers down the street...which are about $10+ more expensive though. Combo your meal for $4 which gives you fries and drink. I enjoy the fries as well. They also have some interesting sides like tornado fries, poutine, sweet potato fries and a few others which I think you can upgrade to. I'll be back to try other things but wanted to put it in your radar if you're in the area.

I didn't even know this was a thing before I stepped into this restaurant. The lovely lady at the front explained that it's essentially a halal way to have bacon, and it is pretty similar. Not quite bacon, but a good alternative. We added it to our burger but I ate it separately to get the full experience. I would go back here! Not sure I would add the bacon, but I would certainly enjoy a burger again.

With tip and tax, the cheeseburger, grilled cheese, and poutine cost me less than $20. The grilled cheese was okay. There was nothing too exciting about it but it was also $3.

I'd come back for more poutine for sure!
