    Rosie burger
    Kenny L.

    Solid burger spot if you're looking for something simple and satisfying. The double patty smash burger was super juicy and packed with flavour -- no unnecessary frills, just a well-done burger at a good value. Everything felt straightforward but done right. Also tried the banana pudding and it was surprisingly good, a nice sweet finish. It's a quick takeout spot, but there's plenty of seating if you want to eat there. Perfect for a fast, no-nonsense burger craving. Staff was also friendly and service was quick!

    Dare I say this is the best smash patty burger in all of Toronto? I am saying it, but let me explain how I got here and what I tried . I did a smash patty cheeseburger tasting across town. I had Burger Drops. I had Matty's Pattys. I had Harry's Charbroil. I had Happy Burger. I had Ugly Delicious. And these all had their merits. But I do think Rosie's is the best put together and has the best sum of its parts. The mallard on the burger was great. The cheese was American (invented by a Canadian) that is really the only choice for smash patty burgers. It was the right amount of condiments. But that potato bun? May be the thing that puts Rosie's on top. Overall this is a great burger. It comes out fast. The staff was nice. The storefront was clean. What else do you want???

    Cocoa Crumble Pudding

    Tried the Chunky Monkey at Rosie's Burger! If you've been around the city, one should never sleep on Rosie's banana pudding ‍ & this is coming from someone who's not a fan of bananas. Chunky Monkey is a twist on their classic banana pudding, with cookie crumbs and mini eggs on top the CHUNKINESS was real added a pic of one of their specials in the past, the Cocoa Crumble If only this will be on the menu forever but it's not so run don't walk!!!

    Chocolate chip cookie
    Julia L.

    Didn't get any burger but got the banana pudding and a chocolate chip cookie. 11/10 stars OH MY!!!! The service was amazing. Very quick and easy to order. Barely any line during peak dinner time. Was nice and bright inside and had some seats available to sit all the time. The vibe inside does give burger joint but that's to be expected. Was clean though. Food: - chocolate chip cookie: 4/5 stars. It was a great cookie. Can't go wrong with this - banana pudding: 5/5 stars! This is hands down the best banana pudding I've ever eaten. It's not too sweet and had actual fresh banana pieces in there. The graham cracker layer really sealed the deal for me. Just perfect and everything I could've ever asked for in a dessert. I literally bought another pint for me to take home. SO GOOD!

    Rosie's Burgers is often mentioned in conversations about Toronto's best smash burgers, so I decided to give it another try--this being my second visit, nearly three years apart (as seen in the attached photos). My first experience was memorable for one reason: the burger was so unmemorable. Sadly, this second visit left me with the same impression. If anything, Rosie's is consistent--consistently underwhelming. That being said, I'll give credit where it's due. Rosie's gets several elements right. The pickles are flavorful, the shredded iceberg lettuce adds a crisp, fresh texture (in my opinion, the best choice for smash burgers), and the bun--which I believe to be a toasted potato bun--offers a soft yet sturdy base. These ingredients certainly help elevate a burger. However, they are just supporting players. What truly makes or breaks a smash burger is the patty, the seasoning, and the sauce, and this is where Rosie's struggles. The beef patty is bland and underseasoned. While the smashing technique itself is solid, yielding a decent crust and reasonable juiciness, the flavor just isn't there. A smash burger is meant to pack a punch with bold, beefy flavors, but this patty lacks depth. Perhaps a fattier beef blend or simply a heavier hand with the salt could go a long way in addressing this issue. The sauce, unfortunately, doesn't save the burger either. It tastes like a generic mix of mayo and ketchup, with possibly a hint of mustard or other spices, though it's difficult to tell. Regardless, it's forgettable and lacks the tang or complexity that a good burger sauce should bring to the table. In summary, Rosie's Burgers gets a 3.5/5 --it's perfectly passable. If you're in the area and craving a burger, it'll do. But it's not a place I'd go out of my way to visit, and it certainly doesn't deserve to be in the conversation for the best burgers in Toronto. To truly earn its spot in that discussion, Rosie's needs to focus on the fundamentals: a more flavorful patty and a standout sauce. Until then, it's just another burger joint.

    Banana pudding half pint
    Jennifer G.

    Came by to try the banana pudding. It is $6 for the half pint, $12 for the full. The pudding was pretty good with sliced bananas and Graham crumbles but perhaps a bit overhyped. The inside is very retro with some seating available. I didn't try the burgers but there is a beyond meat option available. Most people were enjoying a burger and fries or onion rings, which I may try next time.

    Dropped by on a Friday night for some banana pudding and the restaurant was fairly busy. I got 1/2 pint of their classic Dad's banana pudding & another 1/2 pint of their April special Chunky Monkey banana pudding. I would stick with the classic one, it has a richer banana flavour, is perfectly sweet, and has better crisp texture. I definitely couldn't finish a 1/2 pint by myself in one sitting.

    This popular local burger joint lives up to the hype! I highly recommend you come here if you like smash burgers and crispy onion rings. I got the Rosie (double) which included cheese and other toppings. I also got frings which was a combination of onion rings and fries. The burger patties were perfectly cooked and had a nice sear on the edges. Of course, I had to try the famous banana pudding as well. This is something I will definitely order again. I love the generous amount of cookie crumbs in it. The half pint is enough for two people to share. My main complaint with this location is that it was extremely hot inside. It took 10 minutes for my food to be prepared and the whole time I was suffering from the heat. Prices are a little bit high but this is elevated fast food so I guess it's justified.

    Banana pudding (half pint, $6)
    Vonny W.

    Usually when I pass by Rosie's Burgers, it doesn't look all too busy through their glass storefront, but this visit on a Sunday evening was absolutely jam-packed. They had a huge influx of customers ordering, picking up, as well as Uber drivers going in and out constantly. As a result, pre-ordering was a smart choice and worked out nicely as my order was ready in time as promised. As the name suggests, most come for their burgers. I tried their signature Rosie Burger which tasted fresh but was lacking just a tad of flavor. Their fries are salted crinkle fries which was okay, I didn't love how soft the fries were. The star of the meal was their banana pudding which I would 100% come back for just that alone. Like most, their banana pudding consists of vanilla custard and fresh banana slices, but instead of wafer, they use graham and the best part, COOKIE CRUMBLE. This layer makes all the difference in elevating this treat as there's some contrast in texture from the added crunch. Overall, the textures give a good mouth feel, the flavor is rich without being heavy, and the sweetness level is perfect. This was to die for! You can get half pints for $6 or full ones for $12.

    Grabbed takeout. Friendly staff. Had the Rosie, bit too salty for me. Patty is ok, but I've had better smashed burger patties in the city. Bun was good, yah the meat could be better. I'll go back to Rudy's for now. Also like Burger's priest, I'm a Shake Shack over In-and-out person to give you an idea on my palette.

    Single Rosie burger with the sauce
    Lisa S.

    A little pricey but it is very tasty. One of my favourite places to get smash burgers. The meat is a little thin but 2 would've been too much. The Rosie sauce is the perfect sauce for the burger. Tastes a little bit like a Big Mac but elevated. The fries are perfectly crispy and potatoey with every bite. The banana pudding is delightful but I wish it did have biscuit layers. All in all a filling meal if you want a more gourmet burger!

    Rosie burger, frings
    Reh L.

    Rosie's is a pretty classic smash burger spot. I thought the burger itself was solid, the sauce was great, but the patty could've used a bit more seasoning / flavor. The frings and fries were great and had excellent crunch! I would love to come back to try the banana pudding.

    Super yummy banana pudding!! Tbh rivals magnolia bakery's banana pudding in nyc. I love the buttery cookie crumbles on top and wish there were more of those & more bananas layered throughout (it felt like mostly pudding towards the end). The perfect creamy and decadent dessert!

    I wasn't even planning to pop into Shake Shack but a sign advertising their Korean-inspired menu…read moredrew me in like a bear to honey. Everything sounded appetizing but I finally opted for the K-Shack Fried Chicken Sandwich ("Antibiotic-free, hand-breaded whole white-meat chicken breast glazed in spicy-sweet sesame gochujang, topped with fresh scallions and kimchi slaw made with Choi's Kimchi, served on a toasted potato bun"). The ordering process at this location couldn't be easier: you enter what you want at the kiosk, pay, and then wait. It only took a few minutes before my sandwich was ready. And it's a good sandwich. Those Korean flavors really shine through, and that coleslaw cuts the heavy sauce quite nicely. The chicken itself was on the extremely dry side but otherwise I really enjoyed this concoction. The seating upstairs and downstairs meant it was easy enough to grab a table, too. It's a solid fast-food joint.

    Heard about this place from others had to go try it for myself very happy I did their custard milk…read moreshakes are the absolute best I had the strawberry flavour also their fries are delicious some of the best I had so far highly recommend Staff is friendly and fast plus I love there is many employees working there which you don't see very often most places the company keeps understaffed What I don't particularly like is the place is quite loud and crowded but that's normal and understandable when you are a good place that means business is good people coming and going since it is the downtown core right beside the Dundas / Sankofa square that's why I gave 4 stars not five

    This may be toted as just another burger place spot but it is far from your average joint…read more I had lunch here recently and was pleasantly surprised by the experience. The service was friendly and patient as I was greeted upon entry and took my time perusing the menu. The restaurant was very clean and organized, not a lot of stuff on the walls and the bathrooms were in top shape which I appreciated. I ordered the classic double burger, with a side a fries and a cane cola. The burger was delicious! Toppings were fresh and tasty, and it made a mess with the sauces and condiments which is a sign of a great burger. It wasn't overly huge, a good size for my hands and they did get messy as I devoured this scrumptious burger. The Cane Cola was a nice accompaniment to try for the first time but not necessary to enjoy the burger. The fries were golden and crispy and quite a large portion for the price. I just wished the fry lengths were a bit longer as I received a lot of tiny pieces instead of longer potatoes which meant I was scooping them up in my hand to eat them. Not a dealbreaker, just an annoyance. The wait for the food wasn't very long, about 5-8 minutes and they brought the order to the table. I really enjoyed the burger and fries making this NOT just another burger spot but MTTBS = Must try this burger spot!

    Saw this burger joint every time I take the 512 west and thought I'd check it out one of these…read moredays. Went on Monday afternoon as I was on my regular driving route and ordered the crispy chicken burger. It came out looking smashing as they use a complete chicken breast, really juicy and the taste is pretty good other than it was a bit salty. The only gripe I had was the shoestring fries, I would have much preferred fresh straight cut fries.
