This was genuinely the best burger I have ever had. Not exaggerating, I feel like it's become one…read moreof my top five favorite foods ever. I'm from the United States, where everyone brags about how good their burgers are, how the US makes the best burgers in the world, a classic American dish that no other place could top. That was entirely false. I ordered a California classic on a gluten free bun and it was 10/10. My family ordered hamburgers and impossible burgers and they said they were the best burgers they've ever had, and my 60yo mother said it may be the best thing she's ever eaten. The gluten free buns were soft and squishy like gluten ones, the meat was cooked well, the impossible "meat" was cooked perfectly and cooked-to-order, and the toppings were fresh. The sautéed onion on mine was perfect. The milkshakes are also great, and big for how low the price is. My family got choco caramel and mint chocolate and they were great. The fries were just okay. Not something I would order on their own. The burgers were filling though, so it was fine. The counter worker was friendly and welcoming. She didn't know whether the secret sauce was gluten free, but was otherwise knowledgeable about the menu's details. It turns out they have allergens listed for everything on their website, as well as nutrition information. I'm type 1 diabetic and my blood sugar stayed stable after eating, meaning the listed facts were accurate. And my family with severe celiac disease had no adverse reactions to our food. A win! The ambiance was pretty cool, but loud. It's a small-ish space but it doesn't feel cramped. The bathrooms were clean and well maintained. Overall, my family and I loved our experience. This is somewhere we will come back to over and over again.

I was very impressed by the decor (very retro). After sitting for a few minutes, my friend and I ordered and within a short while we got our food. Fantastic amount and real fried potatoes not like the ones you get from the fast food restaurants. Price was right and service was excellent. No wonder the place has survived for so many years. I've been back a couple of times since and never disappointed. A must try.

So, not a big reviewer so take it for what's it worth…read more We've been going to Zander's for quite a few years now, mostly for wing night, but not exclusively, last night for example. (But I still got wings ) Over the years it's been a bit of a roller coaster ride of ups and downs. At times, there's no place better in the city and at other times it's rather lack luster, just living on current reputation. Then at some point, the manager who seems to speak to everyone in the restaurant, but seems to not even recognize us, he realizes this and begins to turn things around. Currently we seem to be in a low spot, and here's why I think this. Mainly it's due to high turnover of staff. It seems there are new servers in week to week (probably not that frequently, but it seems that way). We remember seeing the same proficient servers week after week, now they're mostly all gone. The tall skinnier older guy (sorry I can't remember your name) is AMAZING and we hope for him every time. Sadly, we're left with the "new girl" and the service that comes with a new employee. It's an assumption that the staff just aren't treated well and that's why they leave, but could just be the restaurant industry. Lastly, food preparation has fallen below their norm. I ask for my hot Buffalo wings to be extra saucy and they NEVER are and the response I get is, the chicken wings absorbs too much of it. I ask for my wings extra saucy EVERYWHERE I go, no place else has a problem hitting the mark here. I also don't think whoever is cooking the food is tasting the food, these wings are NOT hot by any standards, I can say this because I eat a lot of chicken wings and a lot of hot wings are too spicy for me, these don't even reach medium temps. Nevertheless, the wings are tasty and I like them. Lastly, we often attend with a couple friends and one of them orders their wings extra crispy, when this happens, I too get my wings extra crispy, I don't particularly enjoy extra crispy wings :( Anyway, we're gonna stay away for a while I think and head over to Kelsey's, it's less convenient but has been far more consistent over time. Like I said, I'm not an expert here, so please make your own decisions, I just want the old Zander's back.

Crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, drizzled with their house sauce (I asked for medium) on a bed of seasoned rice. I had a side of coleslaw and potatoes, both was delicious. Creamy coleslaw with bits of dried cranberries was so good I could've eaten that as a main. Potatoes were cooked in a curry sauce and was flavourful. My brother had the chicken plate which he got spicy and it really delivered. I loved that it was chopped and easy to eat, no knife necessary. The chicken was juicy. He got the salad (sweet balsamic) and hummus, all house made and you can really taste the difference. The hummus had a smoky taste and a nice smooth texture. Overall 10/10, we would defiantly visit again!!
