The Smashburger patty is crisp to perfection!! don't forget to try the brisket sandwich that melts in your mouth. The steak cut onion rings and fries are also delicious.

In my quest for searching poutine (my comfort food to combat stress during my work hrs) in East York - I heard good things about this place. So - I ordered classic poutine via Skip the Dishes. The portion was HUGE, I chose regular size - glad I did not go for large size lol. However, when this generous portion is packed in a small container, with relatively loose gravy, the result is mashed potato with cheese and extra salt. The cheese was plenty. But although their menu describes "squeaky cheese", unfortunately, when I ate it, there was no trace of squeakiness. It may have been different if I ate it in the restaurant.

Have you ever had Ghanian burgers before? Aunt Lucy has been on my list for a while now and I…read morefinally got to check it out just before the end of February. I recently tried the Nima (Fried Chicken) Sandwich at $12.00. This is a boneless battered chicken sandwhich with garlic sauce, mango scotch bonnet hot sauce, on a potato roll. Surprisingly it was pretty mild, which is a great thing. You can always ask to add more heat if you need to but I thought this level was just right and maintained flavour while being easy on the stomach. This black owned business has a new home in the Annex neighbourhood, one of my favourite areas in the city. I really liked the ambience of the new location as it is located in the annex hotels and it looks great to lounge in on nights. Make sure to check it out if you are in the area. You can order direct or on quite a few delivery apps.

Kumasi is a city in Ghana. That is the name of their single burger ($8.00). Accra is the capital of Ghana. This is the name of their  double burger ($11.00). Chef Adrian Forte (consulting chef) appeared on Top Chef Canada and was a semi-finalist with the chicken burger "The Nima Sandwich" ($12.00). The episode was on the most recent season. He wanted to name the burger after an up-and-coming area of the city, Nima, which is a slum in Accra. The chef was used as a food consultant at the beginning stages of this restaurant. As a Yelp Elite, I was able to order the Yelp Elite Signature Combo ($9.99) which consists of 2 x Kumasi Burger ($8.00), 2 × Fries ($5.00) , and 2 x drinks of your choice ($2.25 or $3.00 for the Pink Ting Soda). Our order was worth $31.25 if ordered separately. However, they have the same combo called Signature Combo for $26.00. Thanks Yelp Toronto/GTA. The burger was very juicy and tasty. The amount of fries you get is quite a lot but is reasonable for $5.00. You place an order online if you want to pickup. You can customize your burger online by removing ingredients. One nice thing is that you can choose your pickup date and time. It seems the takeout menu changes depending on what is available! But i know know how that works if you are ordering for later pickup. Of course they also use some typical food delivery apps too. Here are a few of their notable burgers: 1. Kumasi Burger ($8.00): one 4oz beef patty, one slice of American cheese, onions, pickles, lettuce, tomato. 2. Accra Burger ($11.00): same as above but with 2 patties. 3. The Nina Sandwich ($12.00): boneless battered chicken thigh, garlic sauce, mango scotch bonnet hot sauce, on a potato. They also offer a few sides: 1. Lucy's Grilled Cheese ($5.00) 2. Fries ($5.00) 3. Bacon ($1.99) 4. Kelewele ($5.00). Fried plantains. 5. Hollow Rice ($5.00). A piquant seasoned rice dish that's a madly of rice, tomatoes, and spices. In the future, they will be offering room service food to the hotel. They also sell T-shirts ($65.00) that are 100% and pre-shrunk. During warm weather, you would use the front entrance where there is patio space. When indoor dining is not allowed, you would use the back entrance for order pickup, the same entrance as for food delivery services. This entrance has a large jug of hand sanitizer just inside the door. There is free WiFi by using the hotel's WiFi. There is a pay-and-display parking near the entrance with one accessible parking spot but it is really for the hotel. However, the back entrance is not wheelchair accessible. There are no washrooms. 2021-017

Decent burger joint in central Toronto, with an upstairs patio seating area (on that, be warned,…read moreyou'll be watching the traffic at the busy intersection. We sat inside downstairs... Most people eat in, but we did see someone order a takeaway. You order a burger style, then choose the patty, a side, and the style of bun. If that's not enough choice, you can add extras, and you have a choice of dressing if you go for a salad as a side. (I worked out that there are something like 7,500+ permutations...) Anyway, we were seated quickly and ordered a Man Cave burger with a beef patty and a Magic mushroom melt with a vegetarian patty. We had brioche buns and mixed salad in place of fries. Both burgers were Cad$22, and extra $1 for the salad option and two beers at $6 each. The burgers were fine, but not exceptional; the salads were generous and came with two dressings. Staff were friendly and happy to explain how things worked, and which burgers were suitable as a vegetarian option. Water was provided in small measuring jugs (to use as glasses). With service and two beers the overall bill came to Cad$75, so not a cheap meal, but we'd happily return.

The crispy chicken burger was good portion, but the buffalo sauce inside changed the taste to something I didn't taste before making the overall taste less than what I expected.

Since it was my first time, the waiter helped us through the menu showing us what the offer. It was just like a regular smash burger shack. People came to watch the game and enjoy an evening.

The kitchen is right behind the counter, so you can actually see the team working together efficiently. Even on a Friday night when there was a ton of takeout orders coming in, they stayed organized. That said, be prepared to wait a bit, this isn't "fast" fast food when they're busy. Shoutout to whoever was DJ for the night! Great music choice that made the wait more enjoyable. The fries were my favorite part! They're pretty thick cut but still crispy on the outside. The cookies and cream milkshake was good, but it tasted a little too milky for me. Overall, a solid spot if you're craving good fries with your burger.

A large variety of bottle/cans of soda and juice as well. My daughter and I shared the grilled cheese which was cooked to my liking. The fries were perfectly salted and the fountain juice was just as I remember. Service was quick and friendly. They also have a steady stream of customers primarily locals.
