For Valentine's Day 2026, Rudy's had a special deal for smashburgers: single cheeseburger for $5 at all locations. I went to the Danforth one and ordered two and they were so delicious and fresh! The beef had crispy edges and the bun was so soft! The Rudy's sauce was delicious and I liked the basic toppings of lettuce and tomato. It was a little small but it looked beautiful. I went when they opened at 11am and glad it wasn't busy. They had several tables to dine at and the vibe was warm. The service was fast and friendly especially from Purnima who I wished her a Happy Valentine's Day! Highly recommend this location. I've tried many smashburgers in Toronto and Scarborough and these are one of the best! read more

Have not returned to Rudy after I had burnt patty burger from their OG location many years ago. Changed my mind and revisited for National cheese burger day $5 burger deal and was not disappointed. My smash burger was properly done. Was surprised that staff actually served my burger to the table and them manager came to the table to make sure everything was okay. It was a restsurant style/level of service! read more

Convenient location off Greenwood station. I got the Rude Dude burger. Burger was nice and prepared fresh.

Surprisingly good! Pattie had nice crispy bits around the edges and bun was nice and soft. The special sauce brought a nice tangy balance. I am not gonna lie, I didn't expect much when I randomly walked in on a Tuesday night. Ventilation was so bad I was in there for about 5 minutes and came out smelling like the grill. Burger was solid tho! Proved me wrong. read more

Simple yet tasty burgers with a sublime secret sauce. Got a Rude Dude and a Rudy, and the burgers were juicy, grilled to perfection, with a springy bun. This location also has good sitting capacity, is clean and spacious, and has a washroom. Service is quick. Prices are good value. Rudy is definitely a great quick treat! read more

I have been spending more time along the Danforth as of late, mainly doing curbside pickup and takeout. As I was driving away with good lunch eats from Our Spot a couple of weeks ago, I looked over and saw Rudy. I have had Rudy on my bookmark list for a while. I had no idea that there was a location on the Danforth. I made a note of it and dropped by two Saturday afternoons ago. I ordered through Ritual. I got the following items: - Rudy cheeseburger - Poutine - Strawberry milkshake I ended up running a bit later than the expected pickup time. I couldn't find a parking spot on the Danforth. I ended up parking a street north and parallel to it. I then spent a few moments looking at Greenwood subway station, which is convenient if you are hoping on and off with your takeout. I love the green RUDY lettering on the store. I have been told that each Rudy location has a different colour scheme. This one is green. I walked in. There was one woman waiting for her food. I walked up to the counter after having snapped a few photos inside like the tourist that I am in my own hometown. The woman at the counter was so friendly. I mentioned my name and that I had a Ritual order. She had a bag ready for me. She was looking for my milkshake next. She fetched it from the fridge. I love that she made sure that it was cold while waiting for me to drop by. It was such a nice touch! I thanked her. She wished me a great day. I reciprocated and walked out with my food. I ate in my car. Parking on this side street is for an hour. I still don't know the name of this street. Google Maps does not want to reveal what the street name is for some reason. Weird. I may need to pull it up on my old Garmin GPS at this rate. A man living in his house across from where I had parked was getting some exercise. He must have been in his eighties and didn't mind seeing me devour my lunch. I accidentally knocked over my strawberry milkshake onto the passenger seat. I am klutzy, but am not consistent! Only two drops trickled onto it. Luckily, the upholstery has been treated, so any liquid just wipes off. I was relieved. It also shows how thick and cold the milkshake was. My strawberry milkshake was awesome. It was creamy and tasted fresh. It only came in one size. I wish that it had a larger version. I'd inhale that, too. The Rudy cheeseburger was awesome! There were crispy edges around the patty. Yet, it was flavourful and juicy. I loved the curly lettuce. The cheese was melty. The tomato slice was so fresh, too. I got my cheeseburger tattooed, which means that I asked for bacon. It's extra. So am I. Delicious! It was a pure delight having it in this burger because pork fat always rules. The bun was soft. I was so glad that it came in a paper pouch. Otherwise, this burger would have landed on my lap as I enjoyed eating it. I wasn't sure how large the Rudy cheeseburger or the poutine would be. Now that I know, I would order the Rude Dude (double Rudy cheeseburger) next time. It's important to set goals in life. The poutine. I have heard rave reviews about it. Montrealers feel at home eating it. They can't be wrong. They aren't. The poutine is excellent. It's the perfect combination of creamy, crispy fries, flavourful gravy, and huge cheese curds. I tend to like more gravy than what was given to me. However, there was enough to coat most of my fries. It came in a small aluminum container, which is perfect as a side. If you want more, there's a large size. I was so happy to have finally crossed Rudy off my list of burger joints to visit. I love a good burger. I have found it here, along with a yummy milkshake and poutine. It would be great if there were one closer to Markham, but I'm perfectly fine coming down here for my burger fix and more.

I saw this place on the Food Network. They person tired their Rude Dude and the Valentino The Rude Dude is a two party smash burger. It was very tasty. One of the best I have eaten in a very long time. The great thing is no frills. Lettuce, tomato, cheese and the special sauce. A very tasty burger. My spouse ordered the Valentino. She liked it but the buttermilk chicken fillet was sans the hot sauce. The wife liked it but I asked for the sauce on the side. I tasted far better with the hot sauce. The fries were decent. But you don't go there for the fries. I will say the chocolate milk shake was amazing and great way to cap the meal off. . read more

This place is fantastic! We had heard about it from our neighbor, out first foray was some take out poutine it was good enough to encourage a closer look. The menu is small but everything we tried was excellent. When we went back we shared a rudy burger with bacon (patty was on the small side but very fresh and tasty, super fresh bun, slightly sweet like challah) chicken sandwich which was so tender and juicy can not possibly be frozen or mass produced, served with hot sauce and ranch on the side. Poutine was even better when we dined in an also tried the fried pickled which were really fun! read more

Support them. The burgers and chicken sandwiches are great and they have a great little take out window. Very smart and safe! read more

The chicken burger is truly disappointing the size is as a slice burger, the chicken was cold and was more crusts bread than chicken. The burger was . It's one start because. Can not make 0 stars. Not recommended at all. I usually order in Rudy in college, this time I ordered through Ritual. The pick up was ok but the burger a totally disasters read more

I give up on this location. Got a poutine today. Asked for well done fries. Got cold mushy fries & literally zero gravy on them. They skimp on everything at this location. I'm not sure if it's franchised or what, but someone should do quality control. They are all over the map. read more

Only tried the Valentino. Huge but tasteless. Hot sauce was on the side, and not very much of it. Pickle chips were interesting, but greasy. And I've had friendlier service in my fast food excursions. read more

Say hello to your new favourite burger joint! I tried Rudy's on a cold winter day while feeling like I was down in the dumps (not a new feeling during lockdown at all as we all know). I had it delivered and when I opened my door to pick up my bag of food I was greated by the aroma of what promised to be the best fries of my life. Oh boy... I can't even begin to describe how good their thin cut fries are. Forget the other chain brand you brag about, I too was a fan until I tried Rudy's! These are some of the best fries I've had in a long time ( I could write a love poem on this alone). I devoured the fries and just when I thought it couldn't get better, I had a sip of my Strawberry Milkshake. Mama mia! I couldn't believe my luck, 2/3 things I'd tried were divine! The Milkshake was perfect, thick, sweet and fresh as can be! I could have cried at that moment, perfect fries AND perfect milkshake, then I tried the cheeseburger... oh the joy of enjoying every item on your order! Needless to say that meal was the highlight of not just my day but week. I have raved about it to anyone who'll listen, sometimes forced people to try it. I even signed up for an extra workout class so I'd feel less guilty ordering it often. So worth it! Please try it! I cannot wait for more people to find out and agree with my review! PS: No photos, YOU try waiting to take pics while you smell those delicious fries. read more

This was my second time at a Rudy's location, this one happened to be in the neighborhood I grew up. I got the double cheese burger with fries. The burger was grilled really nicely, the famous Rudy sauce complimented it so well, along with the tomato, lettuce & cheese of course. The fries were okay, definitely better when hot & fresh. Would I be a regular here? No but I would eat here once in a while. Still a great experience overall. read more

Rudy - Double Cheese Burger - Burgers Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

This review is based on one cheeseburger. It is a step above McDonald's and certainly not in the gourmet Burger class. Flat thin burger with nothing special that would bring me back. Also the ketchup packets need to be opend with scissors. read more

Great burgers, with a little bit of variety on the menu and decent fries. Service is a little slow, but nothing to worry about. Prices are a little high, but no higher than any other high end burger place. read more

Where's the beef Rudy? Everywhere in your beef-based restaurant. And where's the plant-based options? Let's just say they're harder to find than the humour in a Ross McKitrick lecture. Harvey's had a veggie burger at least as far back as the mid-90s - around the time Stereo Mike was rocking the sick triphop beats and well before the Rock was laying the smack down on Rudypoo candya$$es. And yet here we are in the year of our lord 2023 and it looks like there's still a Rudy-poo or two who still can't smell what the climate is cooking. read more

New location on Danforth! Ordered takeout and was not disappointed. Ordered the Valentino and the Rudy. Will definitely have to try the fried chicken sammy again once they open for sit in, it was a little soggy but still very tasty. So happy about there new location, although terrible timing due to COVID. read more

I ordered pick-up so the restaurant doesn't lose their profits to food delivery apps! My order was right on time. I had the single burger with cheese and bacon. A bit on the small side, but still very tasty. I also ordered poutine which was a huge disappointment. The serving size was small and the fries were soggy. Also the gravy was rather salty with not much flavour. Then again, all I could taste was salt, so who knows?! I doubt I'll return, but if you twist my arm, I'd get a double burger next time. read more

Decided to try this place after seeing such promising photos on their Instagram. We got the Rude Dude (double patty), the Valentino (chicken) and the poutine. The Rude Dude was pretty good. Juicy thin patties with cheese, tomato and lettuce. I placed my order online and picked it up on time but my lettuce was super soggy. I honestly think a crispy piece of lettuce would have made a world of a difference. The Valentino was a disappointment. The chicken was tender and juicy but was under seasoned. The sandwich has no sauce so it was a bit dry overall to eat. It's supposed to come with a little bit of slaw underneath the chicken but I think I'd get more lettuce in a Junior Chicken at Mcdonald's... Definitely would not recommend this. I would have given a higher rating had we not had the Valentino. The poutine was alright. Salty gravy with squeaky cheese curds, personally think it would have been delicious with a bit of cracked black pepper but to each their own poutine! read more

While I think there is a huge market for these types of smash burgers the biggest drawback to this place is cost. Let's be real and say that its tiny portions, I mean even a double patty and fry did not fill me up. Taste wise the burgers are not bad, tasty, a little messy, but hey it's a burger and the thin fries were well salted. What bothers me is that a small double patty cheeseburger with bacon, fries and gravy cost just over $19. I get that these burgers are now a fad in Toronto, something I am not in love with, but cost is way too high for anyone to eat there regularly. I suggest that when the "new" normal is gone Rudy will be too. The other thing that really bugged me is that the pics online and in reviews look like burgers, while mine looked like someone decided to sit on it before putting it in the bag. I mean let's have some pride in the food we prepare and sell folks, even burgers deserve some love. Last but not least, communication. We messed up with the ChowNow system in that we sent our order for ASAP instead of later in the day. When we called to say "can we get it later" we were told that the order was already on the grill and being prepared. When got there the order was not being prepared and was being put aside for later. Sure we got an apology for the mess up but that was a big issue, communication was lacking between the 4 or 5 employees in the store. Even worse was the lack of call back to the client to say "hey no worries we got yah". It's the little things that go a long way, and I hate to complain because it's a tough industry to be in, but lack of communication and a small apology just made the whole evening worse. They got lucky with three stars. read more

Best burger I've had in a long time. Still can't wrap my head around a burger fries and drink being $20 at some of these boutique places but for just under $10 the double burger is worth it. Was at their new Danforth Location. read more

We went here to get some burgers for my birthday lunch. We ordered two Rudy burgers, two fries and a gravy. A simple order that would satisfy our craving for a burger. As I walked up to the walk-up take out window I was behind a guy that was ordering four burgers and fries. I overheard him telling the girl taking the order that he wanted just ketchup on his burgers and nothing else, especially no Rudy sauce. He was saying how he had ordered previously wanting the same, a burger with just ketchup, and how they messed up his order by having the Rudy sauce on his burgers. At first I thought he was making such a big deal to the girl but I could hear her many times asking what he wanted on his burger even after he told her many times he just wanted ketchup on his burgers. So I placed my order, gave her my name and waited for my food on the sidewalk right in front of the restaurant. There were two other people come after me and ordered food. As I was waiting I noticed those people getting their food before me. So I waited a few more minutes before I went to the window and asked how much longer I'd have to wait. She looked confused as if she didn't know why I was there. I told her my name and she says "oh..." and hands me my bag of food that she had placed with some other bags of food that were I presume was food waiting for food delivery people to pick up. I asked her why she didn't call out to me earlier as soon as my food was done. She didn't say anything and just continued like she didn't do anything wrong. It's bad enough having to wait outside in -4 Celsius weather for almost 30 mins for a simple order. But no apology for not paying attention to her customers. It wasn't even busy there so there's no reason she should have forgotten me and my order !! I can see why that guy ordering before me was getting so frustrated with her. So if you walk up to their window to make an order and see a young Asian girl with glasses be cautious and make sure to tell her to let you know when your food is ready !! I don't think I'll be going back to this place. I was upset I had to wait so long for my food. When I took the wrapper off my burger it looks like someone had flattened it with their hands as they wrapped it. A very bad looking burger However it tasted good though..... If I'm up on the Danforth and am craving a burger I'll be going to the A&W a block away where I can get a burger with fries and drink for the same price as just one Rudy burger. read more

Ordered the fries, pickle chips and cheeseburgers. Everything was delicious ! One of the best burgers I've ever had - very soft bun and a perfect patty with crispy edges. I'm not a huge French fry fan but these were tasty. I enjoyed the "pickle chip" vs. the usual deep fried pickle spears you see more often. Highly recommend and would definitely order again ! read more

Newest Rudy location. These burgers absolutely slap. I could eat three a day. Go get one now. Not joking just stop reading reviews and go eat one. read more

Rudy's is great. Very small menu. But the quality of the food exceeded my expectations. As someone who loves In N Out, Rudy's is the Canadian equivalent in my opinion. If you're hungry I recommend the Rude dude, it's big. Moderate hunger go for the cheeseburger. The Rudy sauce makes the burger stand out, but the patties themselves are seasoned perfectly. You can also get any burger as a lettuce wrap instead of a bun. They give you so many fries that one order is enough for two people in my opinion. I've eaten here about a dozen times and it never disappoints. read more

My young and influential son has been fooled into believing this is a good restaurant, so I've had to go on more than one occasion. Otherwise I'd never return to this grossly over-priced, poor-service, glorified McDonalds. read more

Enjoyed the burger, got the single cheese burger which was a small portion. The fries are comparable to McDonald's, they gave a generous amount. The burger is comparable to in and out, I definitely liked that! Just thought the price was high for what you get.! read more

Such great food and service! Definitely one of the best burger joints in Toronto. I've put all of my friends and family on. Don't forget to try their shakes + brownies, too. Those always hit. read more

The Rudy and Valentino tasted great, they are smaller portions so you will need to order accordingly. The Poutine was another story, it seems pre made earlier in the day left to sit around. Not much flavour (my order didn't have much gravy) and the fries were really soggy. Overall Rudy's is good but I will probably stick to the burgers read more

I was so glad Rudy opened in my neighbourhood; I loved the downtown location. The burgers are great and I tried the poutine for the first time and was happy with the fresh squeaky cheese curds. Delicious and worth a visit! Plus, they have a takeout window so you don't need to go inside to pick up your order. read more

Love having Rudy in the neighborhood! Best burgers in the city - we go at least once a week! Poutine is really good too.

Honestly was the best fucking cheese burger i've had in my life. This was my 2nd time at this location. First time was right they opened and didn't feel that strongly as i do now. I got the rude dude and it was cooked to perfection. No one is doing the crispy smash burger like Rudy's right now. My partner in crime got the valentino and she loved it. Really well seasoned and great quality chicken. Fries were basically McDonald's fries but even better. read more

I had a takeout order from Rudy with "the Rudy" burger and fries. The burger had a nice smoky grilled flavour. I liked how the bun was not too big. Unfortunately they only offer one large size (no side size) for their fries. They taste exactly like McDonald's fries (and taste very similar to them). At least half the fries were soggy and seeing as I only ate less than half I felt annoyed that I paid over $4 for them. To me any burger place without decent fries is a step down. I would go back for the burger, but definitely not for their fries. I liked how they did not have excessively takeout packaging like many restaurants and the service was very friendly and efficient. I would have given this 3.5 stars, but Yelp does not do half stars, so I will give it 4. read more
