I stopped into Elijah's Automatic on a Tuesday around 5:00 PM, and the place was completely empty…read more It's a nice-looking spot, but the lack of a dinner crowd makes me a bit worried about its longevity in the neighborhood. The Food The meal itself was a bit of a mixed bag, especially considering the price point. The fries look and taste exactly like McDonald's fries--which isn't necessarily a bad thing if you love fast-food fries, but it feels overpriced for a sit-down or specialty burger joint. The burger itself hits very close to a classic Quarter Pounder with Cheese, though it does feature a subtle, nice flame-broiled flavor that elevates it slightly. The real standout on the sweet side, however, was the doughnuts. They are absolutely great and well worth trying. Service & Vibe On the plus side, the staff here is incredibly nice and welcoming. Service was prompt and friendly, which made the visit pleasant. Overall, it's a decent 3/5 experience. The food tastes fine, but because it mimics major fast-food chains so closely at a premium price tag, it's hard to see this place lasting much longer unless they tweak the value proposition.

I tried the southwest burger this time which is Elijah's take on In and Out Burger. And I broke down and had to try the onion rings! But I shared them. Both were extremely delicious. The Southwest birder gives In and Out a run for its money and may even be a bit better. Would have to try them side by side to determine. The onion rings met and exceeded all expectations. Each one was perfectly encrusted, not greasy, and flavorful! Working my way through the menu of this delightful, unique establishment.

The fries are hand cut and have the skin on them. They are perfectly crisp but the flesh inside is light and fluffy. The best part are the little pieces that are extra crispy. I don't understand how some other fry trucks use bagged fries - that should not be allowed! I also appreciated the different types of vinegars and herb sprinkles (I used the garlic one) and it added additional flavours to the fries. I ordered the burger and it was okay-patty was a little overcooked and patty was store bought but at least it had a good beefy flavour. It's a fry truck so ambience is limited with a view of traffic going by. Fries are 5/5 but lost a point for an okay burger. Would have loved a fresh burger smashed on the flat top.

Today I tried the Feast Poutine which is basically Thanksgiving as a poutine. It was definitely flavorful; my only complaint was I could have had more curds. The gravy is vegan and the fries are gluten free for anyone wanting to try them. This is a CASH only establishment, for anyone who hasn't been here previously.

Woody Wood Burger had really good reviews on Google and not so great on Yelp. So I wanted to try it…read moreand see for myself. I visited the Richmond Hill location, they also have a location in Newmarket. Restaurant is located in a plaza with lots of parking. Restaurant is clean and modern with 6-7 tables not a huge restaurant. They specialize in wood fire flamed burgers. They also have sandwich options. Service was great, we were greeted as we came in. You pay at the front counter and pick up your food and the front. Some of the item comes with fries and a drink and other items are burger only. They were great with substitutions. I changed the fries to onion rings and changed pop to water. No issues they were super flexible and I don't think they charged me for the changes. I ordered the mushrooms burger. It was so flavourful. Juicy beef patty with the perfect charred edges. My boyfriend got the Louisiana burger it was the perfect amount of spicy and a piece of deep fried cheese was so good. The burgers were huge I had to give the rest to my boyfriend. The onion rings were amazing. I would definitely come back again!!!!

I've been creating meals with the leftovers ever since. I was running errands today and felt like something different. I remembered this Fresh Burger in Scarborough and decided to give it a try. For some reason, Google Maps wasn't sure whether this eatery was open. I took the chance and drove down. It's in a plaza that I used to spend a lot of time at when I worked in Scarborough. This Fresh Burger is next to Starbucks, which used to be Licks -- a burger joint. I managed to nab a parking spot fairly close to the eatery. I backed into it and walked over. A friendly woman greeted me when I entered the place. Her welcome was so warm and great. I looked at the menu. She was great being patient with me. I went with combo 1, which is a Freshburger with fries and a drink. She asked if I was good with all free toppings (lettuce, tomato, cheese, Freshburger sauce, pickles, and onions) on my burger. Yes! I decided to upgrade my fries to poutine. The drink is a canned pop of your choice from the fridge. I paid with a credit card. I gave a small tip, as she as friendly and helpful guiding this newbie through the process. She thanked me. Done! She let me know that it would take between seven and nine minutes for my order to be ready. It was nice to know. I thanked her and went to the fridge to grab a canned Diet Coke. I found a table for two and sat on the bench side. I took photos and then checked my inbox on my phone. The music at this eatery was awesome. Rihanna's Umbrella played. That song came out when I worked in this area. Pretty cool and coincidental. All artists playing in this eatery were female, which was also interesting. They included Miley Cyrus and Christina Aguilera. This nice woman brought my food to my table in a paper bag. That gesture was a nice touch. I was expecting my order number to be called and I'd head up to the counter to pick it up. I thanked her. She hoped that I'd enjoy my food. You know what? I did! My Freshburger was, um, extremely fresh. The beef patty was delicious and seasoned nicely. I loved the crisp lettuce, the generous tomato slices (yes, plural), thinly sliced onions, pickles, and cheese. There was Freshburger sauce that was yummy and tangy. I don't know what's in it. I'd guess that it had mayo and ketchup, along with some spices. When I first looked at my poutine, it seemed like there wasn't any gravy. This place uses a lighter gravy, which was all at the bottom of the container. The poutine was excellent. The gravy was hot when poured over the cheese curds and fries. The more I ate it, the more cheesy goodness happened. The fries were perfectly fried. I had quite the experience enjoying my poutine. When I was done, I threw everything in the garbage. I then headed to the back use the washroom. The man who cooked everything asked how my food was. I gave him the thumbs up. It was an excellent meal and I was thoroughly satisfied. He was happy. The washroom is a single stall for customers. Next to it is a staff-only washroom. You basically open the door with the button and press the button inside to lock the door. The button colour changes from green to red when it's locked. You press the red button to exit and it changes back to green. The washroom was super clean. It was also wheelchair-accessible and roomy. No complaints. I left and wished them a great evening. They reciprocated, even wishing me happy holidays. Staff are super friendly. It was my first time at any Fresh Burger. I don't know why it took me this long to visit one. I had a great experience. I look forward to ordering a mushroom melt burger with poutine and a drink, of course, next time. (498)
