This was our first time trying poutine, and it did not disappoint. The combination of the gravy cheese and fries was amazing. You get the salty and savory from the cheese curds and gravy. The gravy had a rich taste. The only thing that I would recommend is the fries be a little more crispy because they need to be able to hold up under the weight of the gravy. read more

Came here while in Kensington Market for a quick bite. Inside the restaurant was very clean and cool as it was boiling outside. I ordered the drop-down and give me spicy and my girl ordered the captain jerk burger. The food was amazing and the portion was not small at all. I would definitely come back here again and try another burger on the menu. read more

This was a damn tasty burger and a very pleasant surprise. The place tiny with a small menu. Service was quick.

Couldn't help but stop by when we saw a sign outside that said cheeseburger combo deal for $12.49 including fries, aioli sauce, and drink. The fries were fresh and hot out of the fryer, aioli was tasty. The burger was enjoyable and hit the spot. All the burgers are homemade. They have 2 vegetarian options as well which I'll need to try next time. There are some other interesting options including a lamb burger. We waited just a few minutes before the food was ready. There is plenty of seating. It's a casual cafeteria style where you order and pay first. read more

They have so many options that it takes forever to decide what to order! Lol But, don't worry! They have friendly and helpful staff to help you find the best option. They have beef, lamb, chicken and veggie burgers combined with so many topping options like tomato, bacon, cheese, lettuce, pickle, guacamole , fried egg, mushrooms, jalapeño, etc. They also have variety of sauces like chipotle aioli, garlic aioli, bbq sauce, habanero aioli, jerk sauce, tomato aioli, garlic rosemary aioli, etc. They get really busy in the evenings and during the weekends. But you can never go wrong dining here. read more

Burgernator is conveniently located in Kensington market, one of my fave places to browse for new eats and unique shopping goods. Burgernator was one of my first tries at gourmet burgers and now that I've had a lot more under my belt, I don't feel like the burgers here are memorable or stand out to me. I ordered the meat burger, the bulldozer, while my friend ordered the veggie burger, ak-veggie 7. The bulldozer is a lean lamb patty burger topped with havarti cheese, fresh mango salsa, sautéed jalapeños, and chipotle aioli. The Ak-veggie 7 is a vegan patty burger topped with sautéed mushrooms, caramelized onions, homemade guacamole, lettuce, tomato, and pickles. Unfortunately, although the toppings sounded delicious on paper, the burgers themselves tasted underwhelming. They were decent burgers but the patties weren't as juicy and the toppings did not add as much flavour as anticipated. I don't think it hurts to try Burgernator as a burger lover because as I said, the burgers are decent, but I don't think I'd be down to give it another go given how average my first experience was and how many other amazing burger places there are. read more

Maybe it's because I've been on a plane all day, maybe because I haven't eaten anything in 8hrs, maybe it's because this is the first time in 5 years that I've been in Canada...or maybe it's just REALLY F-ING GOOD!! The restaurant was pretty quiet, but has a nice aesthetic, and is roomy, and the gal at the counter was very helpful, friendly and professional. Is it the best poutine ever? Hard to say, I make a mean Montreal poutine at home (in Arizona) that's an old family recipe, but it blew my stack tonight!! The burger was amazing too! The deep fried cheese on the smashed patty was fantastic. I probably ate too much, but given the chance I'd do it all over again!! Come. Eat. Enjoy. Repeat! read more

The burgers here are good. It's a pity that there are too many delicious burger restaurants out there in Toronto that makes this store normal. If you just take a walk in Kensington market, you can have a decent lunch here. However, if you're a tourist and may only come to Kensington market for once in your life, I suggest you can go to other more significant stores. read more

I had the captain jerk burger (pineapple and jerk sauce) and it was lazily thrown together with jerk sauce spilling off the side. I couldn't take a bite of it as a sandwich and had to deconstruct it. The patty was fine. Not as juicy as they claim and also no way it was 6oz. I think they gave me the 4oz patty. Also someone else ordered the same thing and then theirs came out the top gun was open and they carefully drizzled the jerk sauce in a nice pattern on top. By mine was thrown together by a toddler. Not goof consistency. I do like how open then place is though and the atmosphere is chill and there are plants by the windows. And the prices are good but I wouldn't come back. read more

Got the Burgernator (3 beef patties between grilled cheese sandwiches). The patties were tasty & juicy enough, though a bit overcooked. The grilled cheese sandwiches were rather dry. The toppings were OK. Be aware that the bacon here is beef bacon (maybe that's why the Burgernator - billed as their monster burger after all - didn't have any). Onion rings were decent but a small portion. Chili cheese fries had a lot of beef in the chili, and the chili was pretty good. The ATM is oddly located - on the basement level outside the washrooms. read more

Man these burgers are seriously out of this world! Next level delicious I tell you.....only reason I'm giving 3 starts is because the waitress was not very privy to customer service. I ordered the bulldozer with beef patty! I really think that the burgers are phenomenal because they use halal meat - unbeatable. I would def come again but hope to be greeted with better customer service. read more

Been here a couple of times and love the experience. Located in a very trendy district there are options as you walk down the street, but this is definitely a rear experience to try. One of my favourite burgers is the Seven - how can you go wrong with a deep fried 6oz crusted chunk of cheese on top of your burger??? And the burgurnator poutine is a pretty cool option. Not my favourite, but If you are in that type of mood, it's pretty tasty. Fries and onion rings are freshly battered and very well seasoned. But make sure you save room for dessert!!! Try the deep fried mars bar. Very cheap and awesome with ice cream, chocolate drizzle and whipped cream!!! Heaven!!!! read more

Good burger and chicken sandwich! Great spot in the kensington market area. We ordered the atomic burger and resistance chicken sandwich which were both good for lunch. We also got a side of sweet potato fries which were okay but not great. Overall if you are in the area and want a good burger with lots of different options I would recommend this place. read more

Really disappointing. Had the atomic burger. Overcooked and flavorless beef. The mozzarella had a nice crunch but otherwise flavorless. "Sun dried tomato aioli" was just watery mayo. No flavor, definitely no sun dried tomato flavor. Also had the poutine, which was the biggest disappointment. The fries were very overcooked and also cooked in old/dirty oil. They had that "burnt oil" smell, texture, and flavor. Soggy and gross. Just all around disappointing. read more

We chose this burger purely for shits and giggles "The Burgernator" is their "challenge" burger and was obviously waaay too big to be eaten comfortably. We had to separate and eat it as two open faced burgers It contained 3 beef patties, 2 grilled cheese sandwiches and then some. Taste wise it was juicy, greasy and cheesy like a burger should be. Kind of wish they had some other toppings to even out the amount of meat on there. I would go back to try one of their normal burgers, not their "challenge burger" read more

In a city sprawling with fantastic burger restaurants, I had passed by The Burgernator in Kensington Market many times, always curious given the name and eclectic names of their signature burgers. On a mission to find the best burgers in the city, I finally gave them a try and was certainly not disappointed. I clearly ordered more than I should have (but, to be clear, ate every last bite) and went with The Baconator Burger (with two beef patties, beef bacon, a garlic aioli sauce and the fixings), the Burgernator Fries (yummy fries with beef chilli cheese, chives and sour cream) and a chocolate shake. Please don't judge me; I don't think I ate anything else for the rest of the day. Despite all the fixings, every part of the burger fit perfectly together and the meat was very well cooked. My complaint had been the quality of the bun as it was a little hard and not as fresh as I would have liked. This is a large, meaty and indulgent burger and one that could easily fill you up. The Burgernator fries were very cheesy (in a good way) and the beef chilli added a nice touch. The milkshake was authentic; you can tell real ice cream had been blended in instead of some artificial mix. Alas, if you're craving a meaty, fresh and original burger, The Burgernator should definitely be a place you should consider trying. With a variety of interest sides and shakes, you'll have many exciting choices to choose from depending on how hungry you are. This is a pre-COVID review and logistically, everything was very efficiently run and pleasant. You make your order, take a seat and they tell you when your food is ready. read more

Delicious! I bought 24 burgers for a house party and they were devoured within minuted :)

Honestly an amazing burger place in Kensington. I know there are quite a few options to try in this neighbourhood but really, I think this is the best. The burger patties are made in house and I remember coming here a few years ago when you could see the patties being made in the back kitchen. They've renovated since and you can't see this anymore but the quality still remains! The options are quite varied and can suit many hungry patrons. I tried The Bazooka Jr this time, which comes with Beef Patty, Fried Egg, Sauteed Hot Peppers, Jack Cheese and Spicy Chipotle Aioli. You also get a choice of egg (fried or sunny side up). I got fried this time. I also go the Rocket Fries, which come with a Jerk Sauce and Cheese with an aioli. They are very efficient and served us within 5-8 minutes. My burger was delicious, nicely seasoned and the egg was perfect. The Rocket Fries are carbs on carbs on carbs but delicious on delicious. They use clean ingredients and you can tell they are really consistent because I've been there at least a dozen times and have never been disappointed. Although this is the only outlet for The Burgenator, they are really owning the Burger market in Kensington (imho!). read more

food has a good in this restaurant, also I like service. About Ambiance its was not a lot people there, so good.

Stopped by here during a long layover. Was starving and got here on a Saturday afternoon. The food options here are pretty intense. Looking at the menu, for those that look for good halal burgers well this is your spot. Combinations look great. I tried the Atomic Burger and a side of Poutine. The burger itself was quite large, based on my biased nyc prices I would consider the value to be worth it coming around $9cad for the burger. Taste wise is where my opinion may differ: as good as the burger looked and smelled, it didn't quite have the meaty salty flavor one is looking for (esp if you get a burger with a legit fried cheese patty). It ultimately tasted like mush but like, good mush. The poutine was good but I'm not Canadian and my experience with this food is lacking so I wouldn't consider my opinion valuable lol. But portion wise it was a lot and definitely kept me full. Service was quick, about 10ish minutes. It was busy and apparently remains like this consistently which is cool. The decor is nice and spacious, lots of seating. They also have a bathroom and even a prayer room downstairs. That's a good and unexpected addition which I'm sure some appreciate. Would I come back here? Yes to probably try another one of the burgers. The combinations are exciting and the portions are enough to stuff your face and feel satisfied. Just taking a star off for the flavor profile. Have had concoctions similar in my city with much stronger flavors. read more

The commander burger- it was nice and juicy fresh can tell meat was never frozen.. my burger was a little on the pink side and nobody else's was as pink as mine The fries came loaded with cheese sauce, house jerk sauce and garlic sauce.. tasted like cheese sauce regular hot sauce and I didn't taste any garlic I would definitely go back to try another burger read more

While the food is tasty, their service is the worst. Ordered and paid for a B52 combo with additional charge for a 6 oz. After waiting 20 minutes they tried to give a commander 4 oz without a combo and tried to say that is what I ordered. Luckily for me, I always take the receipt. Sadly I had included a tip Took me being very vocal another 30 minutes to get what I paid for. They tried to give me a can of pop as compendation. What nerve, it was the drink that I paid for as part of my combo. Go anywhere else. read more

Got some delivery while in Toronto for a wedding, very fast and very reasonable prices (especially for the big city)!

Pretty solid burger patties at the Burgernator. Love the thinner patties, great grill crust, juicy, flavourful, and very interesting flavour combinations. We ordered the Sergeant - patty, lettuce, tomato, pickles, and their special sauce. This is my kind of burger - no fuss, simple, great size, and requires at least 5 napkins to sop up that drippy burger juice. My boyfriend decided to tackle their Big Bang - patty, chicken strips, veggie works, and rosemary aioli. Absolutely loved the sauce on this one. Both burgers were served on yellow buns. Personal preference but yellow buns just don't do it for me. Very one dimensional in flavour and breaks apart quite easily when the juices start running. Could be better... The poutine had great fries, but the gravy was quite salty and really overpowered the whole thing. If you're ever in Kensington Market and want quick, cheap eats - def hit up this burger joint. read more

This is my first visit to the burgernator. It was nice to find a restaurant that served meat in the Kensington market neighbourhood. They also do gluten free which made it a win win for me with my dietary restrictions. There are several different burgers available at this restaurant with some neat twists. I had the baconator which is a two patty burger with beef bacon and cheddar cheese. The foot was fast, good, and fresh. The place was clean, but a little hot with the front door open and it being hot out. Lots of good options and lots of different burger types defined for people looking for burgers with themes or specific ingredients in mind. read more

Pretty decent burger. Burger quality was good, and the toppings seemed pretty good quality, but nothing blew me away flavour-wise. The burger seemed unnecessarily messy. I like how their poutine is made in-house but it was average in flavour. $20 for a burger and a poutine is quite steep; I would've expected to enjoy it more. Unfortunately the air smelled so badly of detergents I decided to make my initial for-here order to-go. Basking in the ambiance of my car was more comfortable than inside that restaurant. Definitely got a headache after being there for under 10 minutes due to the thick detergent air. Word of advice: don't use such strong detergents. We get it, you clean, but so does every other restaurant and they don't smell that strongly like detergents. I'm not sure what happened over the years but I don't love it like I used to. I prefer Burger's Priest and Rudy's over this place. read more

One of the well known burger places downtown, I came here with two of my friends and it was really humid. We all ordered The Big Bang and sat down while our order as being made. It was busy that day so it took us around ~30 minutes for our food to be ready. The people working there were really nice to bring the food to our table. We all ordered the combo, it came with fries (+ sauce) and a drink and overall, we enjoyed it very much. The egg was made sunny side up so the runny yolk made it delicious. Condiments were located at the table in the middle for extra saltiness. I am glad that I got to try this out and would come back to try their other burgers. read more

Food: I got the crispy chicken burger and added cheese, which i had to pay 1.50 extra for. By the time it came there was no cheese which was super annoying. The line was on going and they were slammed so I couldnt be bothered to go and complain. The chicken itself was juicy and cooked perfectly but i wish it has more flavor. It was kind of plain other then the garlic aioli on top. The french fries were made in house perfectly. You get to choose a dip for it which we didnt they give you this tiny serving of garlic aioli for it which ia enough for maybe 5 fries. Considering the price you pay you'd think they would give you more. Atmosphere: The lines were long and you hve to wait quite a bit for your food. I do think the wait time for fresh food was worth it as its a reasonable amount if time. The girl on cash was super friendly and helpful. They have someone on cash and a girl handing the food out when ready. But noone cleaning up. The table with the condiments was dirty and full of fries. There was absolutely no seating. People would stick around for hrs after their meal was finished. Big families saving seats and hving kids running around blocking doors and creating havoc. I was a bit annoyed with the chaos and mess. Verdict: For the price and what you get and hve to put up with I dont think Ill be back. There are plenty of places to eat in and around kennsignton Market. I think Ill try another place next time for sure. Although I did enough the food alot more than the enviroment. read more

Big juicy burgers on fresh soft yellow bun. What's not to love? Come hungry because a meal here will fill. you. up. I tried the atomic burger which is a 6oz beef patty with deep fried herb-crusted cheese (white cheese, probably mozzarella?). In hind sight, I would've been perfectly happy with the classic sergeant burger, I was not ready for all that cheesy and meaty goodness. The beef patty was very juicy, too bad a lot of the juice ended up on my tray rather than staying in the burger. I didn't quite taste the sun-dried tomato in the aioli on my burger. On the other hand, I tasted every bit of the amazing garlic aioli. It's the perfect burger topper and fries companion! They only give a tiny dollop with the fries, but a little really goes a long way. I would come back just for the aioli. This is a very casual joint inside Kensington, the meats are halal and they also offer vegetarian options. Simply order at the counter, grab a number and a stack of napkins, then sit back and prepare your mind (and do some mouth stretches) for the feast! read more

Visited The Burgenator few years ago, and recently went back for a casual dinner with a colleague. I got a fully loaded, with a side of fries. The quality of the burger is spot on. The patty is fresh, ridiculously topped, and super juicy. Brownie points since The Burgenator is Halal, this was a true life saver in our case as my colleague couldn't have enjoyed the meat otherwise. Overall the price is also relatively good. Not as cheap as your average fast food chain, but also not as pricey as a pub. In short, fair and reasonable. Everything else? So and so . . . The taste and colour of the fries suggests that the deep frier oil was in desperate need for a change. Maybe bad luck? The place itself needs a bit of an upgrade. The air is comparable to that of a Korean BBQ restaurant, slightly foggy, makes you wish you had left that new cardigan in the car instead of brining it with you at the restaurant. I did have to leave my clothes on the balcony that night after dinner. . . Tables need a bit of loving care, more frequent cleaning would be pleasant! I would be back for more if in the area. However, I'd stick to the burger alone, and probably enjoy it in the nearby park to avoid the smokey air in the restaurant. read more

The burger meat was seasoned perfectly. The bun was fresh and absolutely fantastic. Sautéed Mushrooms were not salty which is a great plus.
