Loved the size and texture of the soft brioche bun and loved how it had lots of sauce but didn't love how it was such a super thin patty. The patty was tasty and seasoned well, didn't taste dry bc there was a lot of sauce, but wish it had more meat. I thought the size of the burger was quite standard and slightly larger than the other smashed burger restaurants in the city...and I liked how the cheese coated my tongue but still not super sold on the price. The fries were okay. Some smaller end pieces were crispy but the potatoey ones were soft and not crispy on the outside. If they could figure out how to make all the pieces crispy that would be great! Not sure if price of making the burger into a combo is worth it for $6 since fries alone are $5 and drinks are $2. Good location right at bloor and Christie so I guess rent is higher on bloor. Good if you are craving a burger but make sure to get a double!

Superb burgers. I tried their OZ burger which is the basic burger with crispy fried onion string…read more The patty was flavorful and juicy. I also got their Yukon fries which I absolutely loved neither super thin or thick just the perfect cut. I do recommend getting the Z sauce to add on the burger or just eat with the fries, really yum. I do want to try more of their burgers the next time I visit. You can either build a burger or go with their specialty burgers. Do checkout their menu. I came in after I had been hearing about them for sometime and I can say I left happy. If you're looking for a halal option this place has crispy chicken as an option but again pls ask before you order. The overall service was very good. My food came out in timely manner. The place is clean. There is seating at the location. There is limited parking.

Man, GC Burgers completely hit the spot! I was craving a…read moresolid meal and this place absolutely delivered. First off, the food they gave me was incredible-super fresh, hot, and packed with flavor. You can tell they really care about the quality because everything tasted top-tier. But what made the whole experience a perfect 10/10 was the customer service. Huge shoutout to Khaled, who was incredibly chill and welcoming. He went above and beyond and even hooked me up with a free cookie with my order! It's rare to find a spot that has both elite food and legendary service, but these guys nailed it. I'm definitely making this a regular spot from now on. If you haven't checked them out yet, you're seriously missing out. 10/10!

From the moment we walked in, Khalid--now officially our "uncle"--welcomed us with warmth and hospitality that you just don't find everywhere. He made sure we were comfortable, checked in on us like family, and truly made us feel cared for. And the food? Absolutely incredible. I had the Hot Canadiana, and it was a flavor explosion--juicy, perfectly cooked beef with just the right kick from the jalapeños. Every bite had the perfect balance of spice, savoriness, and freshness. It was so good that I had to come back the next day for round two, and it was just as amazing. This is what customer service should be. Khalid uncle runs this place with so much love, and you can taste it in every bite. If you're in the area (or even if you're not-- I come from Pickering for), GC Burger deserves your business. I know I'll be back again and again!

Smash burgers in Union Station food hall…read more Went for a walk on my lunch break to see what I could grab to eat that wasn't my usual suspects. Stumbled upon this smash burger joint in the food hall at union station. Located in an array of diverse restaurants I found this gem in the pocket between the bay and york concourses amongst the sea of new restaurant spots in the union station area. Not a huge menu, you got the classic burgers and some of their special items on the menu. Sides include "regular sides" and "premium sides", the premium sides is just a classic poutine. I ordered one classic smash burger combo with water and fries, and one extra burger on the side. (one order of fries is enough unless you plan on sleeping at your desk) The burger itself was good. It all the fixings you would expect in a classic hamburger. Lettuce, onion, tomato, pickles, american cheese and secret sauce. There was something lacking though that for me, didn't hit the spot. Perhaps the burger wasn't saucy enough for my liking? It was good don't get me wrong, but one of those "missing something" moments, y'know what I mean? The fries - decent portion, not five guys good, but still a good filler. Fries themselves were crispy and hot, the seasoning was good on the fries with the sriracha aioli. Albeit I did find the fries a little salty to my taste and needed that aqua to quench my thirst. Overall 7/10 experience - if you're looking for seating there's standing and sitting areas all around union but the space directly in front of the restaurant is a mixed bag and pretty busy during a monday lunch hour.

Unfortunately, I was on a time crunch as I had a concert to go to after, and I'm a very slow eater. I figured I'd have a chance to try a bit more in smaller portions via a kid's combo. But turns out, you need a 12yo/younger child with you to be able to order one. - I get the principle, but there was no option to order a smaller portion via other menu items or combos, and no hate to your staff but they made it a big deal. But it wasn't a big deal. But it became a big deal because they turned it into a thing, discussing among their staff, about how I can't order it because I'm not 12 years old. I get it, it's the policy, why would I ask them to go against it, they're just the employees, not the rule makers. But what child is going to Union station to order themselves a kid's combo! Also!!! How do you know I didn't come with a child??? But anyway. Please consider offering a small non-kids combo in the future for people who don't like ordering large portions. I ended up ordering the classic smash burger. I loved the texture of the burger, it was so moist and the buns were soft. The patty was the perfect thickness. Unfortunately, flavour wise it was extremely salty. I had to wash it down with pop that I bought elsewhere. So disappointed. I really hope this was a one-off. Located in Union Stn beside Mean Bao on the same level as the food court. Closest exit to Scotiabank Arena. There's public seating all around because it's located in a food court.

Stopped by and got: - Double Jalapeno Crack Burger: The patties were perfectly crispy on the side and flattened to overflow the bun. The cheese was generously melted to seep through everything. The bun was nicely bouncy. And the caramelized onions were just the right level of sweetness to balance the jalapenos. As close to a perfect burger as you can get. - The Elvis: A milkshake with banana, peanut butter, chocolate and bacon. A cardiac arrest worthy of the king.
