Last Wednesday, I had completed my usual stops at ZeeV's Nutrition Studio and Circle K after work…read more I love how they are a block away from each other, which makes my run easy. I found out that Harvey's has a deal with its original beef and veggie burgers. You can get two for $8. If you want to mix and match them, it all works. I had no idea where the nearest Harvey's was from the borders of Toronto, Scarborough, and Markham. I did a search and realized that there's this one further south on Victoria Park, before you hit highway 401. It's funny. I have blown past this location many times. I've never stopped by. I also knew that there was an Chinese grocery store in the same plaza. Here's to another cool stop at two stores that I needed. The drive down was smooth. It took perhaps ten minutes. I had to make a left turn into the plaza. It took a bit of time, but I eventually made a safe turn. I did grocery shopping first. I had backed into a spot that directly faced the drive-thru, steps away from the grocery store's entrance. When I was done, I simply drove straight ahead to place my order at the drive-thru. I had a nice woman on the other end taking my order. I ordered two original beef burgers. I went with my standard toppings on both: lettuce, tomatoes, mayo, and relish. She was so friendly. There was a bit of a wait, but I didn't mind. This Harvey's is also a Swiss Chalet. Excellent! I was drooling looking at the poutine on the menu. I love poutine. Harvey's does poutine well. I paid with a debit card. The woman had the payment machine taped to a hockey stick. Love! The transaction was smooth. I wonder if that hockey stick is ever used on deadbeat customers who don't pay. Hmm... I got my food in a paper bag. I thanked her and left. When I got home, I had my food. I loved the original burger. It was the right size. The flame-broiled beef patty was yummy. The toppings were perfect. I was a bit rusty and realized that my usual mayo is garlic mayo. These burgers hit the spot for dinner. The next day, I returned for the same deal. Yep, I was back less than 24 hours later. Instead, I got original and veggie burgers. With the latter, you have the option of getting a regular or multigrain bun. I had never had the multigrain bun before, so I chose it. The veggie burger is pretty good here. It tastes like a regular beef patty. It wasn't dry. It had good flavour. I'd do it again. The multigrain bun made me feel like I was eating healthier... haha! I went with garlic mayo, along with lettuce, tomatoes, and relish. Both burgers tasted much better. Garlic is everything. I dig this Harvey's. I need to get poutine next time, but I keep dreaming about this burger deal. Maybe when it's gone, I'll get the poutine. The woman who took my order during my second visit as equally as pleasant and nice as the woman from the previous night. Staff are awesome. I appreciated it. I'll be back. I'll try to not eat here every day. (13)

Well Known Local Burger Spot!!…read more Hero Certified Burgers is always one of my favourite places to get a burger. This location on Hwy 48 (Markham Road), is one of a few burger places in the area. When you think of quality, freshness and value for the buck then Hero comes to mind. It's a step up from the other fast-food restaurants. Hero has higher quality meats, a more robust offering in toppings and a good assortment of sides. The Markham Road location has been in business for a few years and is quite busy due to it's prime location in a multi-service shopping plaza. Hero caters to all crowds as it serves up beef, chicken, fish and vegetarian options for its sandwiches and sides and has very good salads as well. The staff and ownership really take pride in their offerings and service. This makes this location a popular destination for burger and chicken sandwich lovers in the area. Give this location a shot, I'm sure you will agree.

Through the years they have faced redevelopment but are still going with their bright orange sign. As mentioned it's a takeout spot with some seating outside, great for a warm summer day. The place is open late and hits the spot when you're hungry for straight up charbroiled goodies. The staff are nice and always helpful. My go to is the steak on a Kaiser with all the fixings including friend onions, pickles, mayo and ketchup. Portions have always been generous though I haven't been in a while. Give me a side of onion rings and I'm good to go.

In general, Wendy's is one of the top fast food chains in my book. I find their food always fresh,…read moreand their toppings in particular are downright luscious for the fast food category - large, ripe, juicy slices of tomato, lettuce, onion, pickles, plus they add mayonnaise along with their ketchup and mustard. The buns are hefty enough to hold up to the fillings, without being overwhelming. Their soft texture and rich taste (not white Wonder buns) are the perfect vehicle for these good value sandwiches. I was in the neighbourhood and glad to find this location still operating. I was even more glad after I parked and got inside. It's been updated, and I love their soda dispensing machines. Sooooo many flavours to choose from, and I like the self service that allows me to control ice and refills. Having said that, I still prefer to order at the counter, although they do have a couple of ordering kiosks. They have a drive through at this location. I opted to dine in. Can't beat free wifi and a good variety of seating to choose from. The dining room is kept fairly clean, except for the salt on the floor, which I don't fault. The staff here were all pleasant and cheery. No way I'd go to a machine to order instead. I love their 2 for $4 breakfast deal, although I am a bit miffed that you get the $1.79 small size coffee rather than a $2.09 large. So, I recommend maybe getting your coffee apart from the deal for best value, if you want more than 2 items total anyway. This experience at this location firmly cements Wendy's as one of my go-to's for a fast food stop. Keep killin' it, girl.

I spotted this Burger King restaurant in the same plaza as COBS Bread and Scotiabank. I felt like grabbing some food here for dinner. I had placing a takeout order in mind. I needed to use the washroom. I parked fairly close to the drive-thru entrance and walked over to the eatery. I entered the door. The washrooms are conveniently on the left when you walk in. The women's washroom was clean. There were a couple of stalls. The one that I used was in decent shape. This eatery has a few self-serve kiosks to place your order. The order counter was fairly busy with customers waiting for their food. I decided to head to my car and place an order online through Burger King's online site. It was nice to check out deals and place my order in the comfort of my car. I got the classic chicken sandwich as a combo. I got fries and a medium Diet Coke as part of this combo. I got an estimated time when my order would be ready. I was so close to the drive-thru entrance that I didn't have enough room to enter it in one shot. I ended up parking at another spot, which would allow me to enter the drive-thru without ruining my car once my order was ready. There were two cars ahead of mine when I did hit the drive-thru. The line moved quickly. I let the woman know at the order area that I had an order in my name. She found my order and said that I could drive up. This woman was friendly and nice. I got her at the window. She handed me my drink and food. I thanked her, put my food in an insulated bag, and drove home. I love a classic chicken sandwich. It was yummy. The chicken was delicious with the mayo and lettuce. I loved the long sandwich bun. Yum! The fries are so much better these days. The potato skins are left on the tips of each fry. The fries were crispy and had the perfect amount of salt. My Diet Coke was yummy. It was cold and washed everything down. It's a decent Burger King. I'd return when I'm in the area. (202)

Looking for an affordable alternative to fast food breakfast? Burger King has been around since…read more1954. This location is located in a busy plaza which includes a grocery store and drug store. We had a 2 can dine breakfast coupon for $6.99. Can't find a better deal than that! The croissant was delicious and unlike the Big M chain, they did not make any cost cutting like smaller egg, sausage or croissant. The sausage was juicy and massive. The egg was the scramble style made in a round mold. The hashbrowns were bite size full of potato goodness. I don't usually big up fast food but this one hit the spot. The dining room is modern, clean and spacious. This location did go through a brand refresh to make it look more appealing. Overall I would recommend this place and if you get the coupons in the mail then don't forget to bring them. You can also order from their app and there are coupon offers in the app.

3.5 rounding up to 4…read more This Hero location is situated right at the very corner on the northeast intersection of Leslie and Elgin Mills in a very large plaza. It's easily accessible and has a large parking lot. This location is extremely clean, including the restrooms. There isn't any wifi, though. There are kiosks to place your order, or, you can still order the old fashioned way at the cash. The menu is pretty extensive, with chicken, fish, and breakfast menu items as well. There are also a number of drinks besides fountain drinks, such as coffee, iced coffee, and fruity drinks and milkshakes. They also feature a different price special for each day of the week. They even do catering, with a specially designed menu to order. I went with a Heavy Hitter as a combo. The Heavy Hitter is basically a double burger, complete with double cheese and a standard topping mix of relish, red onion, mustard, tomato, bacon, and best of all, their signature burger sauce. Their burger sauce is what really makes it worth coming to Hero. It's not like the typical Thousand Island flavoured you get eeeeeeverywhere else. This sauce is a little lighter and tangier, with a herby flavour that really cuts the heaviness of a burger. I can barely remember the bacon, but that sauce makes you want to return for more. The patties are 4 ounces each, and nicely cooked. The bun is nice. It's hefty enough to hold up to the two patties and all the toppings, and I enjoyed the mix of sesame and nigella seeds. They have a very extensive choice of toppings, which I wish I had taken the time to go through to customize my burger better. The fries were okay. They keep the skin on and fry them to a good, crispy texture. The salt was almost non-existent, but that was fine, because the burger itself is very well seasoned. They were, however, a little too dry on the inside. Fountain drinks are self-serve style. Of course the drink I wanted, Coke Zero, was the only one not available due to lack of product. The selection isn't that extensive, less than 10 selections total. I don't like Diet Coke anywhere near as much as Zero, so I contented myself with a mix of Classic and Diet. One of my pet peeves is being charged differently (usually more) at the cash than what's displayed on the menu. It's very clearly posted that the burger goes for $13.80, with an additional $5.10 to make a combo. I'm no math genius, but I know $18.90 when that's the sum. For whatever reason, I got charged $19.10 instead before taxes. There isn't even a breakdown on the bill. I couldn't be bothered to address it, but it definitely brings them down in rating overall. I appreciated that the staff were very attentive, and again, that the premises were super clean, including the restrooms. If it weren't for the dry fries, unavailable Coke Zero, and especially the price discrepancy, easy 5 stars.

Things like ketchup, mustard, onions, pickles, you name it, they have it! You can build your own burger to your liking or of course pick a burger that they've already curated on their menu. To build your own burger you first select your protein. I opted for the 6oz. angus beef on ciabatta bun. There's a huge selection of toppings that you can add on that will cost you extra. Sides like sauces are all free though. The burger was great since it's everything that I wanted. Nice and juicy and so delicious. Made it into a combo with some fries and the fries were also great. I did end up waiting for quite some time though for my food and struggled a little with the kiosks for ordering. But that seems to be a me problem (haha). Overall, a great option for something on the go and if you're craving for a solid burger.
