Never had bad service or a bad meal at this Gourmet Burger Co establishment yet. The servers always bring my girlfriend and I our food. They ALWAYS ask how our food is. They ALWAYS have said goodbye. Which is solid customer service.
I usually tend to pick from their specialized combo's where as my girlfriend is obsessed with their fish burgers.
The only downside is the seating is not that comfortable. However its more than comfortable enough for you to enjoy your meal.
This is definitely coming from a return customer. -

Worst burger joint EVER! The staff was very rude.
Anyways here is the story, I was at this joint with my friend. He doesn't have enough money so he asked me to pay for his burger. So I did, and I asked the cashier if it's possible for her to add $5 do the bill so she can give me a $5 bill from the cash register (I know it's absurd and it's probably not possible, but I really need a $5 bill at the time). At first, she didn't quite get my idea, then the store manager came out. He said that I can't do that (with an unpleasant face), of course I was expecting that. So I told him that I'll pay now. Then he just threw the debit card terminal at me and turned around not saying a word. He also gave me a very disrespectful face. After I paid, I left the store because I was enraged by how he treated me.
After I left, my friend got the burger, soon that store manager told him to leave. My friend said "no" because there is no reason for him to leave, he didn't cause any trouble inside the joint. Then the store manager shouted at him, he said "get the fuck out" and literally dragged him outside.
This is THE worst service I had to date. And I certainly would not recommend this place to anyone. -

The Good: They have a small burger combo (it is small); they claim to be environmentally friendly, source locally and are powered by Bullfrog Power, which is a green, renewable energy provider. If you like Crush soda pop, they have it in stock.
The Mediocre: It's not a special burger. I see no distinguishable difference with Hero Burgers, in terms of selection, taste and fries. Even Crush tasted flat. I used to like that soda pop as a kid.
Is it really gourmet? No.
Next time I want a gourmet burger, I will head to Coquine's and order their slider. I don;t mind the small size, I just want flavour and taste, which "Gourmet" Burger is seriously lacking. -

The Man at the cash was actig like he was tweaking on something, texting and generally irritable and impatient. If you can get past the junky at the front the chicken burger was yummy...

I really like the layout of this joint. Right beside the Cupcake Shoppe, the high steel tables and comfortable bar stools make this the perfect place to grab a quick lunch.
WE ATE
I had the mushroom melt and though the mayo wasn't available that day my cashier suggested a substitute that worked fine. My colleague had the big smoke burger and really liked the bacon on his. Burger is greasy like Holy Chuck's but not a lot of flavour. Cooked well though. Yummy fries. If you like salt, like I do, you'll be satisfied.
OBLIGATORY CATCHY REMARK
Not really "gourmet" per se, but as everyone else has said, satiates the hunger. -

Their burgers are solid, as are their fries.
Not much more to add. It isn't 5 stars good, but it is well worth the price. -

I'm always fascinated by fancy burger places. Like...what can you do to a burger to make it amazing????
Gourmet burger offers up a yummy selection of meats and toppings. You can get beef, chicken, lamb or vegetarian. The service was great and easy-going, and they were happy to suggest fun topping combinations for your burger.
The beef burger was shaped into a flat patty, and they piled on your selected toppings generously. This was a messy meal, but I went home satisfied. Yes, it was a bit greasy, but nothing unexpected.
I also had the onion rings - very big and crispy. I think that the onion ring is my new french fry.
If it's a choice between this place and South St Burger (located just south of Gourmet Burger), I would come here instead. -

Came here this afternoon to grab lunch (01.21.11) as I work in the area. I pass by this place daily on the way home and was always intrigued.
When you first walk in, you smell the hamburgers on the grill ... mmmm. Staff members were quite friendly and explained to me how Gourmet Burger works as it was my first time here.
I ordered the regular burger ($5.50) and had all the complimentary toppings put into it. I had to wait a few minutes for the burger, but luckily there is seating with comfortable chairs so I didn't mind.
The burger was a-ok, it didn't knock me off my feet.... it did the trick though. I was no longer hungry.
Next time, I would love to try their poutine... the guy next to me was eating it, but obvi you can't ask a complete stranger if you can try some... -

Gourmet is great place to grab lunch and is pretty close to my school. They have a amazing sweet potato fries and the GBC burger is great, it's sorta like south burger co. Which is around the corner from there, but the price to high tho for a burger. But very small space especially during lunch hours be sure to pack it to go otherwise your gonna be standing eating your food!

Another contender for burgers not 5 minutes from my fiancees apartment. She noticed this place popped up a few weeks ago and wanted to try it before we left for Montreal. I ordered the Aussi Burger and she made something up using mushrooms and cheeses. The burgers themselves were tasty but definitely greasy. In the sunlight the buns shimmered as though I was staring at a tranquil lake. The fries we ordered came in a Chinese takeout box and were nothing too special. I enjoyed my burger however the fiancee said hers was a little on the dry side. Quite a feat seeing the amount of grease that was everywhere. All the burgers are made to order so when you come in here expect to wait 10 or so minutes while everything is prepared. There is no fountain sodas only a case of various beverages ranging from coke, teas, and water. Surroundings are small but adequate. Flat screen TV off to the left, a nice sized bar in front of the window to people watch. All high tops that are pretty comfy. We had a pretty good meal, I could probably come here again to give them another shot.
