Stopped in to try this place out yesterday, I ordered the THE BIG BAD WOLF (TWO BEEF PATTIES FRIED IN BALL PARK MUSTARD WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS) it was $9.99 The burger had great flavor, my only criticism would be the cost, for ten dollars I expected a little more. However the burger really tasted great. Ordered a side of fries and a cheeseburger for my girlfriend. Her burger was very nice looking, but it was dripping grease (a few reviews had noted this) but it did taste good. Thr best part of the meal was dessert, I had the funnel cake, wow it was fantastic. The place is bright with lots of seating, very friendly staff, and orders are delivered fast. I was mad there was no paper towel in the bathroom, but I'm sure it was eventually refilled. read more

Bun was off, needs to be toasted or something. Beef was ok but definitely not on the same page as Burger's Priest. A+ for burger creativity though. The Priest STILL reigns supreme. read more

They've changed their menu a bit since the last time I was here. Luckily you can customize each burger to what you want. Though the sweet potato chips are gone. :( Anyway, before we used to always ask for our burger well done & they would never do it. This time they did. Sorry, I'm not a fan of semi-raw meat. I have the Village Bahabastard Lamb Burger & Hubby had the Big Smoke. It was all delicious. It started to get super busy as we were finishing our food so we hightailed it outta there as it's a small space. read more

I'm picky with burgers. But this place amazed me. Their signature burger is simply cheese, bacon and caramelized onions. I ordered medium and it came perfect, red in the middle. The meat is fresh, juicy and flavorful. The cheese was melted, the bacon was crispy and the onions were perfect! I got a side of fries which were a little oily but the juicy of my burger made them tastier. Everything was delicious and I'll definitely go back. It's pricey for a burger joint but worth the quality and satisfaction! read more

I love the idea behind Holy Chuck burgers but the implementation is just a bit off. I was excited to hear about Holy Chuck because I thought it was going to be like a closer Burger's Priest, but it didn't quite live up to that. The burgers were good, but not $10+ dollars good. And compared to Burger's Priest, the burger downright sucks. But the fries were decent and the milk shake was excellent. I had the Mad Cow, which is a one patty cheese burger with a fried portobello mushroom on top ($10.99). The beef was tender and beefy but it was also a bit bland. A lot of grease was dripping all over my hands and the tray, but it didn't taste greasy to me. The fried mushroom was just ok, but it was kind of weird with the cream cheese and feta. The fries were the skinny type and were crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. I think this is the one area where Holy Chuck beat out Burger's Priest. However, I ordered lemon aioli to go with the fries, and while the fries were tasty, the lemon aioli was not. It had some flavour that was reminiscent of dessert - I think the best way to describe it is mayo mixed with lemon curd, like the kind you can buy in a can to bake lemon meringue pies. I also had a bacon, fudge, and sea salt milk shake that was the highlight of my meal. It had little chunks of salty bacon in it that were a nice contrast to the sweet fudge and ice cream. It was tasty in the same way salted caramel is tasty. I also tasted some of my friend's chocolate milkshake and I definitely think the milk shakes are worth a trip to this place ($3.79 - $5.50). The only thing is, three out of the four people I went with ordered milk shakes, and the same three of us didn't feel so great after the meal. Coincidence?? After I was done my meal, my wallet was $22 lighter, but my hands were nicely moisturized from all the grease I wiped off them. I don't think I'd ever go back because it was just a bit too expensive for food that was just okay (except the milkshake...but it might have given me a stomach ache...) If we had In-N-Out or Shake Shack here, Holy Chuck would be laughable in comparison. read more

Definitely one of the best burgers I've ever had. The patties are made in house (like almost everything else they have) and they're cooked to specification, tender, juicy, and magnificently seasoned. So far I've only tried their signature burger but there's a concoction with foie gras that's calling my name. Will definitely, definitely be back! read more

What can I say about Holy Chuck? What can't I say? Never a bad experience here. Some say the burgers are too greasy but you won't hear that coming from me. The Greek fries are out of this world. Side note: I am now craving these thanks to typing this review. The milkshakes are too. My only caveat is that in the battle of the burgers, The Burger's Priest reigns supreme. read more

It had been quite a while since I last tried Holy Chuck, so I was excited to give another go at their hearty burgers. BURGER: Having been reasonably impressed with their basic "Holy Chuck" burger previously, I expected big things from their "Cowlorie" (a double cheeseburger with bacon, onions, sandwiched between two grilled cheeses). Though greasier than I typically like, the beef was fresh and highlighted quite well by the bacon and cheese - they certainly didn't skimp on the cheese here. FRIES: The "Raging Bull Fries" on the other hand, did not complement the burger as well as I had hoped. These fries would be a good example that more isn't always better. The gravy seemed excessive to me, and its odd taste really detracted from the other ingredients of the dish. Consequently, my friend and I actually ended up eating only half the dish. MILKSHAKE: With an impressive array of specialty shakes available (18 options!), I ended up going with the Nutella and Peanut Butter. The shake was thick and flavorful as I hoped, and reasonable in size. The burger is a bit pricey given how much you get, though the fries/shake were reasonably priced. Holy Chuck is not a "must try," but will definitely be on my list of burger places to head to when I have that craving. read more

Went to Holy Cow after hearing rave reviews from friends. While the burger was quite delicious I could have really done without the overly pretentious attitude. I ordered "The Village Bahahastard 'Saganaki Style' burger and asked if I could have some pickles on it (which I was more than willing to pay for). I was dealt with a terse "We don't do that and we're not going to do that. I takes away from the 'experience'". Now I'm a pretty fair guy but seriously? It's a burger not a virtual reality game or a tour of the Sistine Chapel. Was it really that difficult to give me two pickles? Customer service is a sizable portion of any dining experience irrespective of whether is it fast food or not. I would not go back, there are better and friendlier places that are more than willing to go the extra mile. I will happily be taking my "experience" elsewhere. read more

Great burger quality. Meat was nice and juicy. Price was fair I think. Just thought it was a tad too salty for my liking. Pretty busy for a Sunday night at 7pm. read more

Tried the famous Holy Chuck burger, it tastes really great! Just like they say, DO NOT add any toppings to it! The beef/beacon/onion totally grab your month!

Holy Chuck - Nutella fries with ice cream! Definitely give it a try! - Burgers Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Oh my Glob. This is THE burger of Toronto. It's delicious and juicy and fresh, the fries are great, the staff are friendly and don't try to upsell you. They just recommend the House Favourite, the basic "Holy Chuck" burger, because it is just DE-Lish. We went today for the boyfriends birthday, and he got the Holy Chuck. I wanted to try something new and got the misunderstood breed. While it was good and interesting, I still recommend the Holy Chuck more. The bacon patty overpowered the freshness of the beef patty so it wasn't as enjoyable. read more

Holy chuckin' hell, this place is awesome. 1. The burger quality is beautiful. It's perfectly moist and juicy and chewy and delicious and more delicious. Admittedly, waaaaay too greasy for my liking but I collected a pool of grease, soaked it up with napkins and kept going as I ate. Whatever, burger was delicious. It was constructed well, something i sometimes have a problem with. And the bun held up too! Although I would have preferred whole wheat, while fantasizing about their menu later, I noticed it could be done for a dollar extra. 2. Milkshakes. These combinations would probably put a diabetic to tears. And they're good too, though they are about $6, but if you're a real milkshake lover (which I'm not, but was pleased with anyhow) then this would be a good place to go. It's like 95% ice cream and 5% milk, and I remember reading about where the dairy came from and was pleased to know it was nearby. Good stuff. 3. So the gals in front of me were talking about how they probably came up with the menu (it's like a bunch of drunk college boys got together and were fantasizing about these burgers) hahaha, I dunno, i thought it was funny. Lots of variety and the burgers are very creatively named. A little overwhelming for the first time, but its not too bad! There has to be something on here for you!! 4. Price - I paid $20.88 after tax for a shake and a burger. A bit pricey seeming, but all in all is worth it when you factor in quality I think. 5. Atmosphere- simple, old school black and white checkered diner kinda look w/ metal tables and a wooden bar sorta thing by the window. Nothing notable. I would come back. Many times. With people I'm trying to impress (with the greasy awesomeness that is this place.) Definitely worth it, check it out! read more

Holy Chuck is somewhere we don't go often.... But when we do, we prepare to wait in a pretty long line, and we plan to enjoy the F*** out of our meals because how could you not?! The menu is wild and everything is worth trying if you are a daredevil. The bacon fudge seasalt milkshake is beyond anything I have ever tasted before. It's a meal in itself, the richest, most sweet+salty mouthgasm you MUST try that or one of their shakes. The line up was long this past time as usual but we brought our patience and it's cool to watch everything going on in the kitchen and watch them make your burger. I got the cowlerie which is a double bacon cheeseburger with grilled cheese buns , I get it every time actually... It's just SO DAMN delicious !!!!! Check this place out, it rocks. read more

Holy Chuck - Cowlerie!!!! - Burgers Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Reviewed Dish: Holy Chuck burger Reviewed during: Mon - Fri Lunch time Service Speed: 3 / 5 Cooking speed: 3 / 5 Food Quality: 5 / 5 Food Quantity: 5 / 5 Price: 3 / 5 (Burger + Fries + Drink combo is nearly $20 including tax) Cleanness: / 5 Repeat: Yes I tried Holy Chuck on multiple occasions, there is always a long lineup. the worst lineup was during the burger week, I think I waited over 45 minutes before ordering, and I arrive before noon! Because of the burger week lineup, I actually get to see how they prepare the burger meat. They blend the meat twice, and roll them into little balls, then weight them with a scale for consistency! The burger is awesome, I would recommend to get the fries to fill you up. They make small batches of fries frequently, so it's usually fresh. Fortunately I never have to wait for the fries when my burger is ready. In comparison, the size is bigger than Burger Priest's burger. About on par with P&L burger. I tried the milkshake once, it's not thick enough for me.....I miss the good old day of McDonald milkshake (before 2000), it's so thick you need the straw to scoop up the milkshake sticking to the side of the cup. read more

My review is for the vegetarians out there in search of the best veggie burger. When here I got the grazer, two portobellos stuffed with cream cheese & feta, deep fried between two grilled cheese sandwiches. I know, what's health right? But it's one of those things i just had to try, now I'm a huge fan of burgers priest and their are differences between their veggie burgers. In trying the burger I had to say I was mildly disappointed, by the sounds a cheesy, fatty deliciousness of this burger the flavours just wernt all there. Although probably still worth all the calories, its worth a try, the flavours of the cream cheese and feta go well together although when I first heard it was the two cheeses I was skeptically, the thing I didn't like was the lemon aioli on top. But hey maybe it's my taste, worth a try for sure, but my hat goes off to burgers priest! read more

Although you can see that the beef is freshly grounded in front of you, the texture of the entire burger put together wasn't as good as expected.The buns need to be toasted, it needs some kind of crunch to it.

Went there today due to web coupon (pay $10 ahead of time, get $20 off our total when there). I wouldn't go to any 'gourmet' overpriced burger joint otherwise. I got the "You Fat Pig". Figured it'd be interesting to try a burger made entirely out of ground bacon (with bacon strips, and cheese, and a bacon dressing). Taste-wise, it was decent. It was about as expected. The problem that it was WAAAAAAYYYY too salty. Like, yeah, I know bacon is cured... but this thing was sodium city. I would not get it again. I also got fries. I'd say the quantity was worth the price, especially with the coupon. More important is the taste... their fries were very good. Thin and crispy with a nice flavour. My friend got the signature "Holy Chuck". He said it was good, but quite small. I commented on how fairly small both burgers were. Value? Well, without the coupon, we'd never go there. My burger was definitely not worth $11.99 and my friend's was not worth $9.99 -- these up-scale pretentious fast food joints are getting annoyingly common and all charge far too much. It's a hipster movement and it's not worth the price tag at all. Would I return? Probably not. Even with a coupon, the value is pretty horrific. I'd much rather a burger combo elsewhere for $10, rather than here where the burger on its own is $12, and to get a burger + fries + milkshake + tax =at least $21. With the coupon, you could in fact grab $20 worth of stuff and pay $10, but the burger was small and it was out of the way to get there. Plus if the value is so poor that you need a coupon to make it worthwhile, it's not worth it. read more

Holy Chuck - The burgers were just OK ... nothing really special. - Burgers Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I know this place is pretty hyped, and to be honest, I didn't have the burgers... so I assume that's their thing. Because veggie burgers are not. At. All. We tried the shakes, and they are a decent use of your day's worth of calories, and the fries were okay. But the veggie burger was pretty flavourless, mostly just tasting of fried. It was also pretty busy and the line takes a while, but the people there are really nice. I wouldn't at all recommend this place for vegetarians, but they have a huge following for the beef, and of course the obligatory eating challenges that can earn your photo on the wall :) read more

Nothing special, what's so ever about this place! They advertise big burgers, and a big mess is what you get! The meat has a lack of flavour to it, the poutine gravy is bland, the fries plain. It does fill you up though! Yonge and St Clair, there are a million better places nearby to get a descent meal! read more

It's a good burger but it's nothing original. Good milkshakes tho which Burger's priest is soon to offer at their new and bigger location at Yonge and Lawrence. read more

I went here based on all the hype. I ordered the Jr. Cheeseburger and the Crispy Fries. I actually thoroughly enjoyed my meal here. The burger tasted very fresh and not too greasy. (I thought it was going to be dripping with grease after reading the other reviews). It actually wasn't very greasy at all. I think the double patties, bacon and cheese might make the burger more greasy. The fries were not crispy, but they were good. I really liked the addition of the herbs on the fries. I would definitely come here again, I'd like to try their other burgers and their milkshakes. Update: I have ate here again a number of times and enjoyed my meal. The poutine is excellent! Huge portion so I recommend sharing or having it just as your meal. I find that the burgers which come with 2 patties can be a bit greasy. But everything is fresh and it's great to have this place in the neighbourhood. read more

i went to Holy Chuck while visiting Toronto and the menu alone is enough incentive for anyone to stop in. The store is a little on the small side, but luckily it wasn't very crowded and a lot of people took their food to go. On a busy day though I can imagine this place would be cramped. I got a Holy Chuck burger and split a foie gras poutine with my friend. I also got a little daring with a bacon milkshake. I wouldn't order it again (the milkshake, too many crunchy bacon bits) but overall the portions are huge- I didn't even get to finish my fries. It's a nice place to go for a solid burger and fries and that's the most important thing. read more

If you don't enjoy a burger at Holy Chuck then you must not enjoy fresh ground beef, fresh buns, and great toppings. Yes, its pricey. But that's the cost of eating a burger in Deer park and having fresh organic meat ground every hour. This isn't just a burger joint, its also technically a butcher too. I had the holy chuck burger straight up and Vanilla Cherry Pipp pop. It was worth it. The washroom was well lit and clean, staff friendly, and the food delicious. A TV showing the world cup and clean dinning area. Holy Chuck is equal in rating to Burger Priest, Burger Shack, and The Grillway. If you like burgers, you'll like Holy Chuck. read more

Overrated and expensive. Burger was a greasy mess (and not in the good way). The buns were measly and disintegrated in my hands as I was eating because of the grease. Fries weren't bad but nothing to write home about either. Burger's Priest over Holy Yuck, any day. read more

Holy Chuck! Went here on a whim with a friend and it was amazing! Had the big chuck and a Nutella and salted caramel shake. I shared my friends fries which were seasoned with rosemary sea salt. No need to pick your toppings as the burger is already dressed. Let's just say the price is worth it as the meat was tender and the shake was heavenly. Like a salty Ferraro rocher! Definitely going back and with a few intense workouts so I can earn my meal! read more

First visit, so I figured I'd ease in with "The Holy Chuck," a basic double cheeseburger with bacon and onions. Had it cooked to medium and it was great. The burger was greasy and soft like butter. I'm not a fan of my burgers being too red in the middle, but this was one of the rare occasions where I would have one like that. No post-burger punishment from my stomach after eating it, too. Bonus! The fries were solid. For me, Holy Chuck is one of the top two or three burgers I've eaten in Toronto. read more

Hands down, the best tasting burger I have tried in my life! The only downside? Bad for my diet. But a treat here and there doesn't hurt. Their signature Holy Chuck burger literally makes you want to go "holyF***" it is THAT good. No other competitors come close. I do agree with people saying the burgers are very greasy, but it is honestly what makes the burgers taste so good. read more

This place is amazing. Maybe I'm alone on this but I would personally say it's better than burger priest. It's just mouth watering good. I've had a bunch of their burgers and my favorites would be either the Croissant du paysan or the Cowlerie. The signature burger is also amazing. I even tried the uber expensive Holy Duck with fois gras and truffles and while not something one could order every time, I don't at all regret ordering it. I would love to try the Go Chuck Yourself challenge, but I don't because I feel their burgers are so good, having only 6 minutes to eat it is sacrilege. Sometimes I travel all the way up to Yonge and St. Clair just to indulge. read more

Greasy burger at its best. It will give you a coronary but you will die happy. Fries were cut a little too thin for my taste. We ordered 2 Holy Chucks, 1 order of fries, 1 pop, 1 vanilla shake for $35. A bit steep for a lunch, but we came out happy. read more

This is a review on the stall at Front Street Market. I understand the space is limited and their menu is limited. No problem. I ordered the holy chuck. All the burgers on the menu were double patties. Later, when I got to my table, I found out my friend ordered the single patty version (why wasn't this listed on the menu??) Burger itself was ok. They gave away my order so I had to wait but other than an apology, they did not compensate me for waiting for another burger. Burger itself is good but VERY greasy. The bun was soaked in oil and that may appeal to some people, I wasn't as fussed. Be good if they had a more heartier bun so that it would absorb the oil/fat instead of making it soggy. For more than $10 I found it expensive for what it was. read more

Very Good!! The burger was delicious and well presented, I had the Cowlorie and we agreed that there was way too much cheese and therefore made the burger too salty. The fries were a let down and the poutine didn't help. I would rate the poutine similar to McDonalds which is a good reason to either re-invent it or pull it from the menu. But they've got the gourmet burger down packed which gives them a 4 star. read more

First and last time. Let me start off with good then bad. Good Many selections Fries is good Taste of burger is decent Fresh? Bad Texture of meat Under cooked Numerous wrong order to multiple customers (while we were there) Crappy customers service Pricy for these quality Came to this place for lunch, came in just before the lunch crowd hit. Ordered a cheese burger, a fat pig (bacon patties), 2 drink and a fries totalling 33 dollars? Ok that is a bit pricy for a burger place.. But if quality is good, isnt too bad considering is yonge and st clair. Well when the burger arrived, they got the name mixed up and left the burger on the counter for a few mins before we ask to get the burger.. By that time the burger is still warm enough. Well that's about as much good as this place have. The food tasted decent however the both burger was still pink.. A pork bacon patties pink? Seriously? The other burger was order middle well and also pink. As we ask the cashier she just say this is how they do it.. Really? 33 dollars and this is the crap food you put out? Lack of apology or anything.. If this is hell's kitchen the tv show. This burger will be thrown to the wall.. The burger patties texture taste like a wet diapers.. I have ate many many fresh burgers around the city and by far this is one of the worst garage they call food.. I cant believe people are eating this crap.. Well for 33 dollars i may as well go to a sushi bar and have some decent food.. What a waste of money and earth resources. I feel sorry for the sacrifice of the animal. read more

I had the Signature Holy Chuck Burger. It's a double cheeseburger with bacon and caramelized onions.  They ask that you don't add any extra toppings so I didn't and let me say you don't need to. It tasted great just the way it is!They fresh grind their chuck hourly and nothing is frozen. They ask you how you would like your burger cooked. I like mine medium well. Let me warn you the first bite will be a juicy one. Please make sure you have plenty on napkins on hand.The burger meat is very tender, pretty much melt in your mouth. I usually have mixed feelings about bacon on my burger because most times it's either way to crispy or very fatty and soggy. The bacon here was perfect, it had a bit of chew but not overly crisp. The caramelized onions knock his burger out of the park! Holy Chuck is right on with this flavour combination. The bun was very soft. If I had a small complaint it would only be that the bun was too soft. Dont get me wrong I loved every bite.I decided to add on the fries and drink and make it a combo. All I can say is it came with a huge amount of fries. It's more than enough for two. The fries were fresh cut salted and an added touch had parsley sprinkled on top. They were fried to golden perfection. Just be warned there is a lot!They had the Coca-Cola Freestyle which is always nice because you can pick whatever drink you want. I think there must be more than 100 different drinks available. read more
