Review: The skin-on fries were very crispy. The cheese curds were incredibly fresh and squeaky. The gravy was a little thin, but their restraint in not adding too much of it allowed the fries to retain their aforementioned crispiness. If they’d taken the clump of curds (8 or so curds were stuck together) and broken …

Burger Co. – Burger
Review: The burger came with a 7oz grilled patty. It was well done, but slightly over, because it crumbled apart while I was eating it. The patty was good, but a little over seasoned with steak spice. The brioche bun was very nice. There were grilled onions and bacon that was actually perfectly cooked. The …
Burger Co – Poutine
Review: This poutine was very disappointing. The julienne-cut frozen fries were of the lowest quality I’ve ever seen. There was a reasonable amount of cheese curds, but they were covered with very bland gravy (I know it’s a ghost kitchen, but the burger I ordered from the same ghost kitchen had a bunch of high …
La Station – Burger
Review: The patty was approaching ½ lb. It was grilled well-done and pretty dense. It had a little too much seasoning for me (something other than salt and pepper was throwing me off). It had swiss cheese, which was a nice change. The bacon was very thin and some of it was burnt. The lettuce …
La Station – Poutine
Review: The fries were a very specific type of frozen fries that seem to be very popular with restaurants these days. I’m not a fan at all. They seem to absorb more grease flavour than other frozen fries. The gravy was pretty good and there was plenty of cheese, but those fries just didn’t do …
Bistro Cazza Pizza – Pizza
Review: The crust was of medium thickness pretty dense and crispy. The sauce was mild, but good. There was plenty of cheese. The sausage was more processed (like a pepperoni, more than an Italian sausage you’d get from a grocery store) than I expected, but very good nonetheless. Overall, this was really solid and pretty …
Bistro Cazza Pizza – Poutine
Review: This featured the oily, crispy frozen fries I just can’t handle anymore. The gravy had a deep colour, and was very thick, which I liked a lot. There was also a decent amount of curds. Garnishing a poutine with parsley was a little weird, but not really an issue. If this poutine had real …
Pataterie Hulloise – Burger
Review: The burger came with a really dense patty that somehow tasted overcooked (rock hard) and undercooked (very little browning on the outside) at the same time. It couldn’t really recover from that. The bun and the cheese were as basic as possible, but fine. The only interesting thing about the burger was that they …
Pataterie Hulloise – Poutine
Review: The fries were good and a little more done than at most fry trucks/stands, which I didn’t mind at all. It seemed to bring out the sweetness from the potatoes. There was a generous amount of cheese. The gravy consistency and flavour were ok, but there was just way too much of it. It …
Nate’s Deli – Burger
Review: The bun appeared to be overly toasted, but it actually tasted fine. The patty was pre-formed and a little dense, despite not being very thick. It had good char on it. There was good quality cheddar and reasonably thick bacon on the burger. The vegetables were fresh. The sauce was a lemon mayo, but …
