    a close up of a burger box
    Veronica C.

    It was at the food court, Yorkdale Mall. There was a line up ordering and a line waiting for the food. So I needed to wait for my name to be called to pick up my order. Ordered a the Holy Cluck, a fried chicken sandwich. I was astonished seeing such a humongous piece of fried chicken in the sandwich. It was so big that it was sticking out of the sandwich. The first bite could only reach the fried chicken, it was hot and crispy, such an amazing experience. It also came with slices of tomatoes and pickles and lettuce. It was good. I also ordered a poutine on the side. It came with a lot of gravy and cheese curds but a bit salty to my taste.

    The holy Chuck medium rare

    Best burger I've had in some time. The one thing I love is they use a single patty, beef ground in house so I can ask for medium rare. It just melts.

    Definitely not what I expected, but not bad at all. A nice small location just close enough to where we wanted to end up being for the night (The Hive eSports Bar). The menu has a lot of choices but I went plain and simple and got the Holy Chuck, cus why not. The burger was really fresh, perfectly how I wanted it cooked too, but super greasy, like there was a little too much oil. The fries... Oh boy. Those were awful. It was legit one of those moments that I just thought of them as a Ketchup delivery service. "Would you like some fries with your ketchup?"... That bad. Really don't recommend the plain fries. I'm not sure how the other options are like the poutine, but I don't have high hopes for that at all. Overall, a nice spot to hang out with friends and grab a quick bite to eat.

    Arguably the best burgers in the city, undoubtedly the best shakes. I heard Holy Chuck was started by someone who used to cook at Auberge du Pommier, and it shows with the creativity of the burgers. I especially love the Village Bahahastard (lamb burger with a big slab of saganaki cheese), the Cowlorie (burger woth grilled cheese; they do the grilled cheese part especially well since the "buns" almost melt into your burger), and of course the classic Holy Chuck (simple and straightforward, allows you to really taste the quality of the beef). My wife has tried the Holy Duck - while really pricey, she swears by it if you love foie gras. But where Holy Chuck truly differentiates itself from all the other burger places are with its shake. Sinfully thick, divinely rich - whether you go for a straightforward Chocolate or try Grandma's Apple Pie, the flavours strongly come through. My favourites are the Nutella + Peanut Butter, or if you want something more unusual try the Bacon + Fudge + Sea Salt (the shake will have bacon bits in it, so interesting mix of sweet and salty tastes... which works!). One last tip: If you want the best Holy Chuck experience, go to the one near St Clair. The other locations, while good, just don't meet it's level of awesomeness.

    The best burger in my neighbourhood. I've been coming here for about three years. The milkshakes are sublime (try the Nutella and salted caramel!) and their burgers are such a special quality. It's a pricey treat to have dinner here but well worth it. I love the option to choose the doneness on the burger, I always go for medium. The fries are sprinkled with salt and parsley, and are always crisp. My only complaint: please bring back the lemon herb aioli!

    I've been meaning to try Holy Chuck for awhile, and finally managed to drag a bunch of friends to accompany me! We tried two milkshakes ($5.49 each)- Happy Frappy and Grandma's Apple Pie (my choice). The happy frappy tasted very strongly caramel. Personally, I preferred my Apple Pie milkshake, which tasted remarkably like an apple pie, served with vanilla ice cream. There were actual chunks of apples in the shake and I especially loved the intensity of the cinnamon! Two friends ordered the Greek Bahahastard ($10.99)- two lamb patties, caramelized onions, and topped with a roasted red pepper and garlic feta aioli. I didn't try this burger since I don't eat lamb, but I was told that they undercooked Sandy's burger. Other than that, the burger was quite well-received by my friends. On a side note, the fries were excellent and Sandy's chipotle mayo dip ($0.99) was absolutely addictive! Another friend opted for their signature Holy Chuck burger($9.99), which is a double cheeseburger with bacon and caramelized onions. I had a small sample and liked it quite a lot. Sometimes, simplicity goes a long way. As for me, I opted for the Mad Cow, which consist of an animal feed (panko crusted portobello mushroom stuffed with feta and cream cheese, deep fried and topped with a lemon and herb aioli) and a single beef patty ($10.99). On the whole, I enjoyed my burger, but it was really really filling. I recently tried Shake Shack in NYC and the Mad Cow definitely wasn't as good (the deep fried portobello mushroom was heavier here). But since I don't go to NYC often, Holy Chuck seems to be a good substitute. Of course, I still need to try Burger's Priest's version! Henry and Jeremy also ordered Holy Chuck fries ($5.99) with bacon, double cheese and topped with homemade vino chili. The first few bites were delicious, but after awhile it just became... too much! The portion was alarmingly large and we finish ours. Next time, I will stick with having the fries on its own. Overall, I think Holy Chuck was an enjoyable experience, but we were all in a food coma after the meal! To my surprise, we managed to finish most of the food in the end, but many of us felt compelled to work out after such a fatty, artery-clogging meal. I thought that the burgers were pretty good, but not amazing. My favourite was probably the milkshake, and I am tempted to come back to try other varieties (nutella and salted caramel!!!)

    In November 2011, I checked out Holy Chuck which had just opened in the 'hood where I work. I didn't have a great experience. In January 2013, "Anonymous" left a couple comments on my blog post (1) ranting about how Holy Chuck makes the best burgers and (2) calling me a "dumbass". Time to go back and check it out again ... maybe I had a bad meal. I was in the office today (a rare occurrence lately) so had lunch at Holy Chuck. Johnny was at the cash and was very friendly. While I was eating, he checked on me (and others) a few times to make sure everything was okay. Excellent customer service! I ordered a single burger (with mustard, ketchup, pickles and tomatoes), fries and a Coke Zero ($11.29). The burger and fries were okay, not great. The burger was a bit bland and greasy. It was smaller than burgers at other places but you are paying for quality not quantity. I've had worse burgers, I've had better burgers. There were lots of fries (too many to eat) and they had a different taste .. almost lemony? So I gave it another try and wasn't sold on rushing back.

    Holy Cow!!

    A year later, we came back. The Go Chuck Yourself challenge was out of question this time; we wanted to properly enjoy a burger, instead of throwing ourselves into a fat-dripping pile of meat and cheese. We ordered the Holy Duck, The Holy Chuck, The Village Bahahastard "Saganaki Style" and Fresh Italian While Truffle Fries. The burger patties were deliciously tender and flavorful, but this time I sorely realized that Holy Chuck is *quite* expensive: for the same price, the burgers are smaller than that of other joints. They make it up with the quality of their meat, I guess. The truffle fries were also quite good, with most of the aroma coming from the truffle oil/mayo mix. Note 1: They have a super fancy soft drink dispenser. There's tons of choices and everything is controlled via a touch screen. The downside is that it can only serve one person at a time, and people tend to take longer given the number of options. Note 2: We didn't see our photos on the Wall of Shame! Maybe they were lost?

    Holy chuck, I've finally decided to try this place after hearing about it for so long! I was thinking of trying something extremely exotic...until I saw the prices...I guess I'll do that next time. I decided to stick with the fundamentals and ordered their specialty: Holy Chuck burger. I added a side of big chuck fries cause I heard positive things about their fries. Comparing to Burgers Priest, I personally thought they were about equal, if not a slight edge to Holy Chuck for more variety and juicier patties. However Holy Chuck easily wins the category in better seating, as the place was significantly larger and I was able to grab a seat. The big chuck fries were nothing to write home about, but I liked the fries themselves. Maybe next time I'll just have the fries without anything added, or try the poutine. Holy Chuck has a lot of interesting burger choices that I wanna try in the future.

    I absolutely love their burgers!!! We usually get their original burger which is the Holy Chuck or some funny name like that. It has 2 patties, bacon, cheese, carmelized onions. Chocolate sea salt and bacon milkshake is a rich and delicious savoury and sweet dessert I would say. Not even a drink as it's so rich! Any of their poutine taste great as well. Overall their service is speedy, knowledgable and efficient. We received our food quite fast and with no mistakes. They are a little pricier than most burger joints but you can feel good about spending on this place because of the quality and great taste in every bite. I reccomend this for anyone who is really hungry !

    Eating dinner on the go. Decided to try this local burger joint that my friends declared was the greasiest burger on the planet. The good: the burger is greasy but great. I had the holy church signature burger with onions. It is super greasy but has amazing mouth feel. Decided to pare with grandmas apple pie milkshake which is delicious! The bad : the burger and the shake were $17! I'll be back next year....

The I Heart Butter Tart Concrete ($6.49) that I ordered was a little too much for myself. I did decide to go through and finish the ice cream / sundae just so I don't have anything to go. The interior of the place was properly though out and well designed. Self order stations are available to order from and the ordering interface is one of the better systems I have seen. When I dined in early afternoon on a weekday it was a rather slow day. There were a couple of Shake Shack employees constantly roaming about the premises ready to attend to any customer request. 1 such employee was thoughtful enough to serve me and a group of other customers some water. I have mixed feelings about the bathroom setup. Yes, it is clean and there were a few toilet rooms available, but it requires a code to be entered prior to using. The door screen shows as vacant but an employee still needs to give out the 4 digit code needed to access the toilets. I also found some issues with the water faucet sensors. It is inconsistently picking up my gestures resulting in an unreliable and unsteady flow of running water when I was washing my hands.

There is no seating at this location, you can't even go inside. You order from a window and wait on the side of the street until it's ready. So there's little overhead when it comes to seating, cleaning up after customers, etc. That is fine and understandable yet they're asking for tips to take your order while you stand outside and wait. The order in question: two burgers, two drinks and fries. I was given 1 napkin for all of that. Just one napkin. The burgers were small, just a bit bigger than a slider but thin and they were overcooked and burnt all around the edges. The fries were fine, golden and crispy but served in a small bag for $5. If Rudy is trying to save money in this economy, that's fine, but I don't feel the need to give them mine.

The service was friendly and patient as I was greeted upon entry and took my time perusing the menu. The restaurant was very clean and organized, not a lot of stuff on the walls and the bathrooms were in top shape which I appreciated. I ordered the classic double burger, with a side a fries and a cane cola. The burger was delicious! Toppings were fresh and tasty, and it made a mess with the sauces and condiments which is a sign of a great burger. It wasn't overly huge, a good size for my hands and they did get messy as I devoured this scrumptious burger. The Cane Cola was a nice accompaniment to try for the first time but not necessary to enjoy the burger. The fries were golden and crispy and quite a large portion for the price. I just wished the fry lengths were a bit longer as I received a lot of tiny pieces instead of longer potatoes which meant I was scooping them up in my hand to eat them. Not a dealbreaker, just an annoyance. The wait for the food wasn't very long, about 5-8 minutes and they brought the order to the table. I really enjoyed the burger and fries making this NOT just another burger spot but MTTBS = Must try this burger spot!
