Small family owned Greek burger joint on Main and Landsdowne. It's the typical Winnipeg burger joint where you can get burgers, superboys (which are fat boys), fries, milkshakes and Greek food. But I came for the burgers and man oh man was I intimated by the size of these things. The patties are easily the biggest ones I've tried - very thick! At $4.00 for a single patty cheeseburger, it is very much worth the admission price in terms of quality and quantity. The burger had the usual pickles, onions, mustard and chili. The patty was very juicy though I was missing a bit of the carmelization and crust that I like on the exterior of a patty. The chili is very subtle here though I did pick up on the flavour of the cumin. The burgers here are probably 1.5 times or even bigger than VJs so there's definite value here but I could barely finish half as I also ordered a small poutine to share. The burger is very good here and I would highly recommend this place. But my personal preference for burgers is a stronger chili taste and more grill top crispiness on the patty.
The small poutine ($5.25) is delicious! The fries are super crispy and just the right size (not too thin, not too thick) and the gravy is perfectly balanced and not too salty. But as a note the cheese here is mozzarella and not cheese curds. I really liked that the gravy and cheese were LAYERED in the bowl so you get a perfect ratio of fries, cheese and gravy in every bite! It's details like this that makes me rank this poutine very highly.
They have a lot of milkshake flavours but the chocolate was yummy. The milkshake was thick, creamy and a great treat.
My boyfriend ordered the double cheeseburger ($6.50) and had a very difficult time with it as he could barely finish it! Did I mention how thick the burger patties are?? LOL. I don't know the weight but it was pretty thick. But he really enjoyed the burger. The "superboy" burger is really a fat boy so the regular burger toppings plus lettuce, tomatoes and mayo and goes for $5.00. Oh and I must add that these burgers get pretty messy so it's not the type of burger you want to eat in your car.
The restaurant has 7 tables that can seat about 4 each. There's parking in the back. The restaurant is very clean and amazingly there was no greasy food smell despite having the grill top cook only about 10 feet away from the dining area. Great exhaust hood! And service was very friendly but food service does require a bit of a wait because they cook everything to order!Listed in: Best Burgers

Super-boys is another North Main burger shack that you'd easily drive by if you weren't looking for it.
Clean and well lit, like many of these joints, the order counter and grill is right up front. Nothing to hide, you can watch the team turn out burger after burger.
Service was super-fast and the folks were very friendly, delivering our order well within five minutes of walking through the door and the prices are hard to beat--under ten bucks for two enormous burgers.
Super Boy's burgers are fat-boys--the ubiquitous Greek style burger the city is famous for--cooked on a flat top grill until crisp, then slathered with chilli, onions and lettuce.
Super-Boys undoubtedly takes its name from the fact that their fat-boys are the biggest in the city. These suckers are huge so the two burger order was a little overkill I must admit.
In spite of the patty's weight and the addition of bread dissolving chilli, the bun held together well for the entire time (which, for me, is only a matter of a minute or two at the most).
While I appreciated the portion size, and the overall flavours were fine, there was a little too much filler in the patty and clove in the chilli for my taste.
The fries were perfectly cooked but slightly too salty when served along with the rich, beefy, but equally salty gravy.

This place makes the best burgers in town. Their double Super Boy is as big as a bowling ball and the taste is amazing.
I recommend the Double Superboy, chocolate shake and an order of fries ( comes in a bag / box ) .
Prices are medium high, but the quantity of food you get more than makes up for it.
Seating is plenty, parking is available in the back. Its been a while since I've been there and can't remember if its cash only. Good news is there is a bank 30 ft south of the restaurant.
Upsides:
Great grub. Cheap. Parking all over. Nice owner. Newspapers normally around on a table.
Downsides:
The bathrooms in the basement are spooky. No handtowels to dry your hands. Don't go down there if you need to go #2.
Rough neighborhood. Closes early. -
