There has to be somethin in the water, with some restaurants in my neighborhood…read more Came here for lunch during the week and was instantly assaulted by the music in the atmosphere of the restaurant. C less then enthusiastic cashier behind the counter made the experience significantly worse, after they couldn't hear my order and asked me to repeat myself many time Do you think you could turn the music down? I'm sure this isn't helping the repeating the order? "the music is too loud?" I was waiting for the food, the music wasn't turned down, and the whole situation was overwhelming and made me so irrationally angry The food which was brought home because of the obscene noise levels was less then average, nothing special to write home about. So I left this restaurant, with ringing ears, angry over the overall experience, and nothing redeemable from a taste standpoint. for context as well, I've been to concerts that have been quieter then this experience Won't be back, absolutely save yourself the experience

The good news is that the food is made to order...it was almost bad news considering it was busy…read morewhen I arrived and was running late for my movie, but I can't hold fault to that. It's a genuine smashed burger. My first bite of the meat that went outside the bun had me worried that it was overcooked, but it ultimately was just that piece as the rest of it was good and what you'd want from a smash burger. I got a double - which I'd recommend since the patties are on the somewhat smaller side, and really loved the burger. The fries were surprisingly average to my taste. Cut similar to McDonald's, but I didn't find they had much taste and were quite oversalted. Actually, they were very oversalted. I imagine that was a mistake on whoever was doing fries and otherwise they would be average but passible fries. But someone preferring thin cut may feel otherwise. My wife really enjoyed her strawberry milkshake. It doesn't look like it's from ice cream, but rather a cream base that they put in a frother for quite a bit of time. That also held up the order since there others had ordered shakes too, but ultimately it was a very good shake and can't hold that against them. It definitely came out nice and light.

Heard lots of good things about this place especially from locals so decided to give it a try since…read moreI was in the area. It's a small old-school diner conveniently by Kipling TTC/GO station. I tried their cheeseburger and poutine. For the price, the cheeseburger is not too special but I really enjoyed the poutine - the gravy melted the cheese perfectly. One of the downsides is they only accept cash. You are also able to customize your burger.

Found myself in the area and went here because the Dundas Street Grill apparently only stays open…read moreuntil 2:30 p.m., which was ten minutes before I got there. Ambience? This place is old Etobicoke architecture, in stark contrast to the shiny new condos, Scotiabank, and Farm Boy across the street. But I'd be lying if I said I don't have a soft spot in my heart for classic Toronto buildings, so in I went. The decor is funky retro dinerish. From seeing the ATM as the first thing before the counter started, and the fact the guy before me paid in cash, I intuited that this might be cash only, although I didn't confirm that since I actually had some of the folding stuff on me. A cheeseburger, small chocolate shake and French fries set me back $17.05. Not cheap, but not too much more than other fast food in Toronto. From what I saw from the other orders in front of mine, they have a wide menu selection including grilled chicken, steak, and veggie burgers. Also, the bacon they were adding to other sandwiches looked tasty too! The cashier was pleasant and the sandwich assembly line was efficient, and soon I was sitting down with my meal. The place was constantly busy while I was there. The fries were really good. Crisp but fluffy, not greasy, and unsalted, because as an adult, I could pick up one of the provided salt shakers and choose where I wanted my blood pressure set as opposed to the chef deciding for me. I actually didn't add anything because they were so good plain. The burger looked like someone had used ground beef and not a liquid slurry. It was passable, a very clean flavor. It sounds hypocritical to say I would have liked a bit more salt in the burger, but, well, guilty. But I appreciated the homemade feeling of the texture, a nice chew without being rubbery. And the bun was nicely toasted too. The shake came from a shake machine, and tasted exactly like that. Nice and thick, nothing special, but it hit the spot.. It's not a destination location by any means, but if you're in the area and looking for a burger, this is a fine choice.

Elijah's Automatic serves one of the juiciest burgers I have had in the GTA. The texture alone…read moreimmediately brings back memories of what McDonald's would've tasted like back in the day, but with a noticeably more premium touch in both presentation and execution. This is the kind of place you go when you want to step away from overly fancy burgers and just enjoy something classic that works. I ended up trying most of the lineup, and honestly, there is not a dramatic difference between the Automatic with Cheese, Bacon Cheese Automatic, and Golden State. The builds are fairly similar, which is not a bad thing, just something to note. The standout for me was the Hotomatic with Cheese. The hot pepper slaw had more heat than expected and added a real kick between the patties that made it memorable. If I had to recommend just one, it would be either the Automatic with Cheese or the Golden State. Both are clean, balanced, and hard to mess up. My biggest obsession here is the fries cooked in beef tallow. There is something about them that instantly brings back the taste I remember from childhood. If anything, I just wish they came in a larger portion. One small letdown was the Bacon Cheese Automatic. While the burgers overall feel thoughtfully assembled, the bacon felt oddly disconnected, almost like it was added as an afterthought. Instead of blending in, it stood out with sharp saltiness and threw off the balance a bit. That said, this place does exactly what it sets out to do. Simple, nostalgic, and executed with care. I will gladly be back.

Like the fact you have 3 options for buns - Brioche, Sesame and Poppyseed. Overall though I found the burger just average. Meat was ok but bit bland tasting imo even with the Acme sauce on it. - Grilled Chicken - added mushrooms to this sandwich. Chicken was a good portion size but just average again imo. Chicken Acme sauce has some kick to it vs the burger version. Service (3.75/5) - Server at front was friendly, however was a bit on slow side getting the orders. Atmosphere (3.75/5) - it has this classic burger joint feel to it with bright colours and clean overall. Parking can be tricky if it's busy with limited spots. Overall (3.75/5) - it's a perfectly fine burger joint however nothing really stood out for me food wise. They seem to be busy enough and have been on this corner for a few years now.

Their smash burgers are one of my favourites and I would give it a 10 out of 10! The french fries are different than other places as they have crinkle cut fries.

They had 4-5 tablets for you to place your order, and you also have to pair the buzzer with your order yourself. We ordered the original burger, a double burger, and cheese fries, and received our order within 15 min, which was surprising given how busy it was in the store. Overall we liked the burgers and the fries! I'm a huge fan of the potato bun as it beautifully wraps up the contents of the burger. I did find the burger saltier than what I've had in the past which wasn't ideal. The cheese fries were freshly made, crispy, however the portion was quite small. Still very happy to have eaten shake shack after eating it years ago in the states, and given the quality, I would definitely return if I'm craving a smashed burger patty.

The place itself is pretty simple, more of a casual spot. Not super aesthetic or anything, but it's clean and works for a quick meal. It was busy when I went, so clearly a popular spot. We got a few things: the Oklahoma Fried double smash, the classic double, and the truffle mushroom Swiss double. The burgers were good, like no complaints, but I'll be honest they were kinda mid compared to the hype. The patties were cooked well and everything tasted fresh, but nothing really stood out or made me think wow I need this again. The onion rings were sooo good though. Easily the best part of the meal. Super crispy, not greasy, and just done perfectly. I'd go back just for those. It is a bit pricey though. The burgers are like $14-$18, and once you add sides it adds up pretty fast. For what you get, it does feel a little expensive. Service was good, everything came out pretty quick which I liked. Overall, it's a decent spot and worth trying once, but it didn't fully live up to the hype for me. I'd probably rate it around a 7/10, mainly carried by the onion rings lol.
