    I'm so glad that I have a new favourite place for burgers! The door was awesome and delicious. It's awesome that you can make your own! It's a very busy place and it's not surprising. The food is good, nice atmosphere and clean. The owner was very kind and polite and we enjoyed our experience! I'm sure we will go back there a lot! I tried "Lamb Deluxe" which was awesome. The curly fries were good too. We also enjoyed fried cauliflower.

    Customized burgers have been in the trend for so long. Best thing is that you can get the customized burger at the same price as the regular one in the menu. The Burger joint comes in the list of must try burger places in edmonton. I have been there twice and my experience was completely different both times. First time, we had a takeaway of Veggie burger and Chicken burger and i found them so tasty that i decided to go again for Dine in. Well, Food didn't turn as i expected it to be. We got one Chicken and one Mushroom Burger customized. They were tasty too this time, but burgers were not quite filling as they were previously. Rating: Ambience: 3/5 Taste: 4/5 ( Good both the times) Service: 3.5/5 Value for Money: 3.5/5

    BYOB menu

    I've heard good things about The Burger Joint for awhile but don't make the trek out for burgers very often. Well, well, things finally worked out and we came to check out the BJ on a Saturday afternoon. Great nickname eh? It's located in the same plaza as Loma House. The menu is simple; 10 signature burgers to choose from (2 are vegetarian) or else it's BYOB. - Curly fries ($3.75) - fries were piping hot, crunchy, crispy and come with two side dips (homemade ketchup and tartar sauce). - Sunrise chicken ($8.99) - this one tasted like summer; sweet, light and refreshing. - Spicy crunch ($8.99) - this burger was completely different and was a nice change of pace. We both preferred the spicy crunch; it was meatier and more satisfying. Pretty solid place to grab some gourmet style burgers. I'd hit this place up again if I were planning to stuff my face a la Guy Fieri style. 3.5 stars.

    I had my once a year craving for a burger, and this is where I ended up. I went with a build my own, and kept it pretty simple. Just tomato, lettuce, sautéed mushrooms, ranch, and swiss cheese, with the 7oz. beef patty. You can definitely add as many toppings as you like, most of which are free. I expected my burger to be overflowing with mushrooms, but it wasn't even enough mushrooms to have some in every bite. So that was disappointing. I found the bun and patty to both be slightly dry, not terrible, but not amazing. Overall though, it did hit the spot, and the curly fries were super enjoyable. I'll likely be back next time I'm craving a burger, as it wasn't a greasy burger and didn't make me feel ill. But I'm going to be more specific about my topping request... load me up with mushrooms!

    Cool decor

    It's ok I was hoping for more of a wow factor when it came to the burgers. The restaurant is nice clean modern decor.

    Look at the size of this burger .. mouthwatering

    I saw this place a month ago but never went in until today. First thing i notice is no one is in the place. Not a single customer. Considering it was 530pm I was expecting a few people. Im usually reluctant to try the food when there is no one dining. I ordered the BJ burger ( pretty much fully loaded ) and curly fries. You can opt to choose your own toppings if you prefer. The one thing i noticed right after ordering is i could have made it a combo for $3.99 . Total $13.60 for a burger and fries. Granted the burger has onions, mozzarella cheese, bacon , lettuce , tomato , pickles , sauce , mushrooms . For 9.00 ??? Thats a great price. The fries were ok ( mccains curly fries ) but you get to season them up with spices right on the counter ( bbq, season salt , cajun, garlic powder, vinegar etc ) and it comes with a small container of tartar sauce ( who puts that on fries i have no clue ) . I opted to take my food home instead of dining in . The fries and burger are in seperate containers. The burger is huge.. and i mean its big in diameter. Now do you prefer a big thick patty on a small bun .. or a thin patty on a large bun ? One bite and omg... you taste everything. Its not drowned in condiments or sauce . It's a delicious burger. I really enjoyed it. Is it epic? . It ranks up there. They also offer chicken burgers, donair burger and even lamb!! Located at 9132 -23Ave Edmonton this place needs more attention and customers..

    I had to go to Home Depot to get some supplies that I discovered I'd need for a recent job in Leduc. Being so close to South Edmonton Common I thought I'd have lunch at the Burger Joint. I had a lot of places to try in my bookmarks but time did not permit sadly. I didn't get to go anywhere near Whyte Ave and I didn't get to try many places I had hoped. It was a short trip and instead of going to the city I was lucky to instead make plans to see a friend instead. The Burger Joint would be the only bookmarked place I'd get to visit but I was happy to eat a nice relaxing sit down lunch. This strip mall just north a bit from all the big box craziness is quite the busy place. This U Shaped strip mall's parking lot was packed just after 1230pm. The Burger Joint seemed quite busy inside, being lunch hour there are a handful of tables to select. On each table is a thick pad of custom checklists on a clipboard. This is so you can custom make your burger. From what I could make out this place is not a chain and this is a standalone business. The checklist menu reminds me a bit of the customization I've seen at places like BRGR and Burgatory both in Pittsburgh. You pay at the register and order, pay and then your order is brought to your table. While I didn't see a choice of type of bread (just normal bun or sesame) , there is a selection of meat from beef, donair, lamb, veggie, and a variety of chicken styles (buffalo, grilled, breaded, jerk) as well as sauces, condiments and for an additional charge a variety of premium toppings for an additional charge (variety of cheeses, ham, calamari, guacamole, fried egg, bacon and portabello mushroom). Additional toppings are value priced. No premium toppings are more than an additional dollar each. The free toppings such as tomatoes, a selection of different peppers, pickles and other toppings to select from is a long list. Basically you get to customize a burger but if you're lazy to do so they have some pre-made selections to choose from as well. I went with the BJ burger which was 7oz beef, lettuce, tomato, purple onion, white mushrooms, pickles, bacon, mozzarella, and south west chipotle sauce. I have to say that the BJ burger was really made well. The veggies of which I don't usually think too much of were absolutely fantastic. The veg was VERY fresh and the burger was well dressed. The veg were so fresh I think they complimented the burger so much that I almost forgot about the burger... almost. The burger was just short of a half pound patty. It's big, satisfying and juicy. The cheese and bacon addition for me are almost a must and really complete a burger. The chipotle sauce wasn't spicy, it was sweet more like a BBQ type sauce but it was tasty. The bread was slightly toasted and it really made the burger near perfect. I ordered a combo so it came with fries and I selected a bottled water as my drink. The fries were really fresh and hot. They came with a side of ketchup and a small side of another sauce of which I wasn't familiar but I ate it and I liked it too. The only regret I have for the Burger Joint is I could only eat one burger. I wanted more but I was full. I really want to return to try more choices and maybe I'll be less lazy next time and make my own customized burger of which I am no stranger. This place is a solid 4* in my books. I'll definitely return given another chance. I don't come too often to Edmonton but this place is now on my burger radar.

    Great Burgers! I'm not a huge burger eater but this place is great. My sister who is a vegetarian and myself who's an ex veggie was impressed by the unique tasty burgers. I had the chicken burger and my sister had a veggie burger, we shared the curly fries. All was superb. I recommend trying this place, the seating is not overly comfortable but it does have a nice simple look. Parking is not ideal when the businesses around are busy otherwise catch it on a good time.

    I have heard of this place for a long time, but I didn't have the chance to try yet until now, and it lives up to the expectation! They serve Gourmet Burgers. We ordered the BJ and Lamb Deluxe Burgers with curly fries. They make their patties and all the ingredients are fresh. The portion is perfect. I love the size of the patties of the burger and how they put lots of veggie in the burgers. I would call their burgers as a healthy, deluxe, affordable and genuine burgers. It's a must try!

    Picking and choosing what I want on the burger

    A brand new customizable-burger joint has opened up in the South Ed Common/Milwoods area. It's about a minute's drive from South Ed Common and the only reason I found this place is because it's in the strip mall where my doctor's office is. It seems like customizable burgers are totally in nowadays. The Burger Joint offers a vast array of toppings, sauces, patties etc. to go with their burger. Apart from 7 oz (between a 1/3rd pound and 1/2 pound) beef patties, they have a couple of chicken patty options, a 100% lamb patty, veggie patty and kids size servings. I might be missing a couple! Either a classic bun or a sesame seed bun, with perhaps 25 different (free) toppings to choose from, along with another 15-20 sauces. There's no limit on the free toppings or the sauces, though I seriously hope no one mixes all the sauces! Not sure if dijon bbq, chipotle, 1000 island dressing, tartar and mayo would go well! (they have more, I don't remember all!). Of course, they have "premium toppings" and again, this isn't a small list. From a variety of cheeses to portobello mushroom, fried egg, grilled ham ... and wait a minute - did I just forget bacon? The burger is wider than usual (at least that's what I felt) and I get the feeling that they've done that so that people can go all out crazy with the toppings! The patty is sort of thin and seems disappointing to look at because it has more surface area than volume to accommodate for the larger bun. But 7 oz of beef is quite a bit (if they're accurate about that at least) and I certainly felt pretty full! All in all, a nice little joint in a part of town where people live and could conveniently visit. They have decent fries and also curly fries. I haven't checked too much into how they prepare their meal and what is fresh vs what is from a store bought frozen package! I suspect that there will be some things like that, but am not sure. Interesting little joint. Try it out. I wouldn't drive the distance for it but given that it's a part of town that doesn't have too much, I would go there if I was visiting my doctor, as I was today.

    BJ, Blue cheese burger & Curly fries!
    Andrea W.

    It took me a while to visit this burger place but let me tell you the burger that I had was great! The flavor was perfect, I ordered a blue cheese burger - beef, blue cheese, corn, onion ring, purple onion, lettuce, tomato & blue cheese dressing! + a side of curly fries. The different thing about this place is that you can customize your burger with a check list that can be found on each table or you can order one of the suggested burgers from the menu. As per today, you can make it a combo for $3.99 extra (Pop and fries) The place is kind of small but can seat 20+ people. The cashier was really friendly and the food got to our table fairly quick, what it's appreciated as we went there during our lunch break. I think next time I will be adventurous and order a customize burger or try either the double cheese - double mushrooms burger or the sunrise chicken!

    First time going here and it was awesome! Definitely will go back. The various random toppings you get here (most free of charge) make it a great experience. Don't forget to get the curly fries way better then the regular ones. Price portion and service were all exceptional!

    Menu in the photo, I just ordered a burger. It took me 30 mins to wait for a simple burger, I don't get it.

    Awful, weird bacon, my burger tasted like it was microwaved or boiled? Had a weird bland taste. Ill never order from there again ever.

    Pyro used to be my go to burger place. If I would have tried Fox before, it would have been my #1…read more Best burger I have ever had! Thin crispy patties and a nice fresh bun. Great service, great food, a tad pricey but you get what you paid for.

    We adventured to this burger spot because we heard they were offering free kids meals for the month…read moreof October, the caveat was that you had to purchase a regular meal for each kids meal. But we have 2 kids and 2 adults so it worked out for us! The kids menu items are a hot dog, a cheeseburger or Mac and cheese. All the portions for the kids looked really big which I appreciated. My boys are eaters and it was nice to see that they got just as many French fries on their plate as an adult portion. And PS the garlic fries are amazing!!! I'm so happy we got 3 orders of the garlic fries and I was curious and tried the animal fries as well- they were different...tasty but definitely a unique taste. The closest I can describe it is cheese wiz and mustard and caramelized onions. Very potent, I saw they have an Animal burger which probably uses that same mixture combo. Animal fries cost an extra $4 so for the extra cost I would probably just go with the garlic fries every time because they don't have an extra cost. I ordered the most popular Bacon Pepper Smash ($21 single $25 double) and really enjoyed the flavor and the price was on point. Smash sauce, pickled peppers, bacon, American cheddar, iceberg. The single was definitely enough for myself but with the thinner patties I could see why some people order the double. Hubby had the Inferno ($21 single $25 double) Inferno sauce, pickled peppers, crispy fried onions, American Swiss, iceberg. The sauce was spicy! Good but spicy! And it kind of overpowered the whole thing. Parking down the side street was a bit of a walk but not terrible and right beside this place is a cool looking liquor store and Kind Ice Cream across the road. The space itself was pretty big and we felt like we weren't too smushed up on booth next to the next table. Bathrooms are downstairs, mind your head! And there was a baby change table in the women's bathroom.
