How we read reviews →A Balaclava burger institution where $10 lunch specials and vegan shawarma both draw regulars back.
A buzzy, retro-tinged burger joint on Carlisle Street with an open kitchen so diners can watch their food assembled fresh, plus indoor and a few outdoor tables.
Open-kitchen burger assembly in full view of diners, housemade Ziggy sauce sold by the squeeze bottle on request, a genuinely extensive vegan menu including a vegan fried-chicken burger and shawarma, and a standing $10 weekday lunch special.
The shawarma wraps and salads carry genuine Middle Eastern flavour cues (tahini dressing, sauerkraut on falafel) sitting alongside a classic American burger format.
The $10 lunch burger and wrap deal is repeatedly called a steal; full combo pricing (around $30) draws more mixed value comments, especially on the vegan options.
