RIVERSIDE BURGERS
Was looking for a late night burger after a concert and came across Riverside. The shop has character to it. Lots if scribbles/notes from patrons riddle the walls of this establishment. Menu is vast, but I opted for the namesake Riverside burger and a side of onion rings. The onion rings were decent. The sauce they came with was interesting. The burger itself was alright - the bbq sauce worked in way I wasn’t expecting. The patty itself was a bit dry and very chewy. Overall, worth a visit.
I really loved the burger at Riverside — especially the one with goat cheese, it was just amazing. The sides were super fresh and honestly way better than I expected. Their cheese sticks are something else… they make them with halloumi, which you really don’t see much around here, and it makes a big difference.
Also the onion rings were very fresh too — they said they prepare them daily and you can tell. Crispy, not oily, just right. You really can’t find this kind of quality easily in town.
Everything I tried was delicious. Definitely one of the best burger spots around. I’d 100% go again.
4.3 / 5 decent surprise. My photos were rough, but I was in the neighbourhood and this gem was a nice surprise. Good Poutine gravy. Just a bit dry.
Walked in on a Saturday at 2 pm. Met a team of two. It’s a small space but has big impact. They were friendly and direct and supportive.
Got the Riverdale with mushrooms and grilled onions and broad view (I think). I added mustard to the Dijon horseradish.
My friend loved the mushroom burger beyond reason. But the crunchy fresh fries and amazing gravy stole
The show. I guarded the gravy like gold.
Ordering again to make sure it was this good. My only issue, all the burgers I’ve had have been a bit dry and overcooked. Still tasty but dry.
Twice ordered. Poutine gravy on delivery should come on side. My delivery was a 4.2. Pickup 4.8. Tough place for me as a customer.
My first visit was today, Tuesday April 7th 2026. I was craving Poutine. I am always craving Poutine, traditional fries, curds and gravy. I don't go for all that new add on stuff. Riverside Burgers has a very good traditional Poutine. The fries are fresh cut, they were cooked to crispy on the outside and hearty in the middle... the way fresh cut fries are supposed to be. The gravy was beef. It was tasty but, could've been a bit more seasoned. The cheese curds were good, they just didn't have that squeek that cheese curd lovers know and love. I would have liked for the portion to have been a bit larger, but..
Anyway, the gentlemen working there were both very friendly and nice guys. They were getting a lot of app orders while I was there, so it seems like there's a lot of people that enjoy their food. The space is small with very limited seating. I do recommend and do look forward to trying more menu items the next time I visit.
Was recommended this burger spot by like 7 people so we finally decided to try it and it did not disappoint! Absolutely delicious. We tried the broadview and banquet burger.. honestly one of the juiciest burgers I’ve ever had, and paired with those sweet potato fries completes the whole meal beautifully. they were such a vibe to so friendly and charismatic. 100% recommend …. Definitely coming back, thanks so much guys!!

Freshly made burgers are definitely the way to go! The quality was amazing, and the Walk-in Combo is such a steal. Huge thanks to the super friendly staff for the great service. Even my friend who lives far away wants to visit again for another round. Everything was perfect!

Stopped here for lunch and it absolutely delivered. Riverside Burger is doing a proper craft smashburger — crisp edges, juicy center, and clearly high-quality ingredients. There’s real artistic flair in how it’s put together, not just another generic burger spot. Tons of options on the menu, but honestly, this is the one. Do it.

If you want a delicious and a light burger.? This is one of the best spot you can find in Toronto.
Personally, i tried Lamby couple of times and it is consistently delicious. My colleagues always choose beef burgers and they said Riverside is one of the best in their list.
We are working 12 hours today, work is providing food on a Saturday. This place was the only option.
I asked for a vegan burger and arugula salad. They even double checked that the burger bun had dairy and they said they would make it a lettuce wrap.
I received a disgusting looking barf like vegetarian burger with a piece of lettuce on top but then the burger had mayonnaise all over it. Mayonnaise has eggs in it. The presentation is embarrassing 😳 too
The arugula salad had fried cheese and shredded cheese on it.
I cannot eat any this.
Its 2025 do people not understand vegan?!
Horrible tasting thick overly panko crusted on the pickles feels like eating concrete as well.
Whatever I was expecting wasn't this.
I ordered in Uber eat so... I only can say that The burger had little flavor, almost tasteless, especially the meat. The bun was soft. The fries... The potatoes are tastier when we made at home sorry for that... Perhaps it is better to eat on-site than to order delivery.
Looking for a great burger? Looking for some creative approaches? Look no further! Riverside Burger checks all the boxes. The burgers were done to perfection and their fries were awesome! I’d give their onion rings a 2/5 though - to much batter (this might just be a preference things but they looked so much better than they tasted).
They’re busy, so the wait time can be something to factor in (but it’s worth it!). There’s not a lot of seating but if you can scoop up a seat or do take it - you won’t regret it.

Small joint serving up some delicious burgers. They have a large selection of burgers and sandwiches along with sides. I tried the banquet burger and it was delicious. They put a lot of fresh toppings and the patty and bacon we're crispy. The place doesn't have much space for dine in though but most of the orders were takeout or delivery anyway. The food came out fast and the staff were nice. Try their walk in specials if you're dining in. Definitely check this place out.
