Super Burger, fries, rings
Charles B.

Small place with big taste. Homemade burgers, made with fresh local beef on super fresh buns. Fries, cut on site, and cooked to order. Homemade gravy with fresh cheese curds for poutine. you can also order onion rings or spicy fries and about a gazillion flavours of milkshakes. Scoops of ice cream is available for dessert. they also serve shawarmas too. It is located on the same grounds as a driving range and mini-putt next to a soccer field. I have to tell you, this the best burger I've ever eaten. Well worth the drive. About 10 min south of the airport on Limebank rd you can find a nice review here: http://bashford.wordpress.com/2009/02/08/the-best-burger-joint-in-ottawa-burger-shakes/

This is my favourite burgers and shake place near me. Their shakes are thick and the sizes are great for the price. The burgers are HUGE and the veggie option is just as good as the beef patty. I come here very often with my family and though it can get a little crowded, (and thus a little slow) there are lots of outside seating options.

Killer Buns - Inside the lobster roll

Killer Buns

18.6 km•Centretown West

The Short Version: Good smash burgers, fries and lobster…read morerolls. They have vegan versions too. The Long Version: My husband and I just happened upon Killer Buns while walking around the area. It's where Indian Express used to be (we had no idea it closed). Killer Buns is in the basement and Hangout is on the first floor (Hangout relocated here from 839 Somerset). It was Aug 31, 2025 and I was lured in by the signage saying smash burgers, but alas they said they weren't actually open and were just serving invited guests to a tasting of their vegan menu, but their soft opening was the next day and their soft opening specials were $10 smash burger, fries and a drink and $20 lobster roll, fries and a drink. So I said I'd come back the next day. And I did. And I got one of each of their special combos for my husband and I to share. The smash burger was good. It came with cheese, chopped raw onions and pickles. I liked that it was a plain bun without seeds. The meat had a good flavour and was nicely smashed with crispy edges. I think smashed burgers usually come with minimal toppings, but I would have liked to see some sliced tomatoes and lettuce on the burger. I think this would have elevated the taste. The fries were hot and crispy and tasted like chip wagon fries :) The lobster roll was ok. It's no Luke's Lobster, but we're also not Maine, lol. The lobster meat was just satisfactory in my opinion, but at least I did get a small claw and a few small chunks. There's celery and green onions in it. And it wasn't excessively mayo-laden, like at some places. It was on the small side, the size of a small hotdog bun. Service was good. I chatted with a guy there who might have been one of the owners (?) He said they used to run a food truck and did catering and served food at Bluesfest. They've also been doing smash burgers since 2019. The restaurant is small with just a few seats inside. They do have a small patio out front too. We took our food to go. I read on their socials that they serve vegan food and they have a separate fryer for their vegan items and a separate grill/flat top. So this may be a draw for vegans. Street parking only.

My husband and I went to Killer Buns because they offer vegan alternatives to their regular menu…read moreitems. We very much enjoyed everything we tried! I had never had a smashburger before and did not think it was even possible using plant based ingredients, but Killer Buns nailed it! And the fries are perfect.. fresh cut and not at all greasy. The food was very fresh, very very good tasting. A lot of restaurants that offer some vegan or vegetarian foods resort to using pre-frozen highly processed fake meats, but not Killer Buns. Everything is made from scratch using fresh ingredients and wonderful seasonings. The place is small being primarily for takeout, but there is seating inside and the atmosphere is warm and inviting. Service was very fast, friendly and attentive. We will be back again and again.

Once again the food was amazing. This was my first time trying the lamb. I always/ofter have the…read morechicken platter. This was my first time trying the spicy pepper dip. It had a nice kick to it! Size, taste and freshness is what we find at the olive branch. I really want to mention the little attention that Andreas gives his customer really makes you feel at home. I have talked with him on a few occasions. We are regulars... haha. I really liked my lamb but chicken is still my Personal favourite.

We had originally tried The Olive Branch in Manotick during the first week it was open and they…read morewere good, but we didn't feel the need to come back. After hearing some recent reviews on a Manotick Facebook group, we decided to give them another shot almost a year later. We used the online ordering system and our order was ready on time for pick up. I ordered the Lamb Souvlaki Platter ($26.95) and added in the comment section that I wanted the meat to be done medium-rare. It came with two skewers. My wife ordered the Keftedes Platter ($22.95), which she heard from others was really good. Each platter came with Greek rice, medallion potatoes, Greek salad and tzatziki sauce. The rice was a little more plain than we would have hoped, but it improved once we squeezed the provided lemon over top of it ourselves. The medallion potatoes had yummy dry seasoning sprinkled on top. Next time we will ask for more of that dry seasoning in the comments in the online ordering system because it was delicious, but not spread very evenly. The Greek salad was fresh and tasty with a good amount of feta and the dressing was packed on the side. The tzatziki sauce was thick and creamy. We also ordered a Pita Bread ($2) to go with everything. Now let's talk about the meat! Wow! We were impressed with both the Lamb Souvlaki and the Keftedes (4 mini meat patties). All the flavours and spices used were perfect, plus the cook on the meat was very memorable. We kept raving about the meat throughout the meal, savouring every bite. We would easily go back again just for how good the meat was! We're also curious now about how they would handle seafood like their Calamari Platter. The food is slightly more expensive than Cozmo's on Greenbank, but the quantity is fair and the quality is excellent for the meat.
