Toma Burger Addiction

Food:
The Double Jackpot: I wouldn’t know there was any foie gras since it was thin and tiny and had almost no taste to it. The burger also was a bit on the sweet side.
Service:
Friendly but sooo slow. It took 30 minutes for the burger to finally arrive.

Let’s start where I always start. Décor and service. The décor is pleasant — it’s neutral, modern and fresh. The server was friendly and checked in on me regularly. I ordered a classic burger with fries. First the burger — not bad but not outstanding. The bun was fresh but average — nothing special. Truly tasted like buns you would purchase from Loblaws. The patty was good but again not special. The fries looked liked and tasted like they had been sitting around a while. They were more like «bits» with no fry measuring more than half of an inch. I wouldn’t order them again. There are a lot of condiment and add on choices. They have beer on tap. Wine and cocktails. I’ll give it one more try [visited on a Monday] but I will need to see a bit more next time.

My boyfriend & I ordered delivery from Toma. The first thing my boyfriend said after a couple bites was, «this is the best burger bun I’ve ever tasted!» and he was right! The bun’s are soft and taste like freshly baked bread. I saw later on their website that they advertise that they make them daily in-​house. The burgers were great — very juicy without being greasy at all! Fries, onion rings, and chipotle mayo — all great. Also we got milkshakes — delivered! — and they were AWESOME. «Addiction» is very accurate.

I’ve been twice and the food has been consistently excellent. The sweet potato fries, the burgers (and no fuss if you order it without a bun!). The chocolate-​peanut butter milkshake (whoohoo!). Wine list is meh, but that is not why you go here.
This is a «hidden gem» — it should be packed for the quality of food and great service it offers.
«I’ll be back!» :D
p.s.
They do take-​out and you can order online!

Ive only had delivery from here– never actually been inside.
The burgers here are fantastic.
They extend beyond the classic burgers you will find at Burger Priest or Five Guys and make some truely excellent french cooking inspired burgers.
The size is perfect and so are the toppings (my favorite is the El Diablo) — but its the bun that really stands out. A nice dense brioche milk bun really holds the rich patty and toppings together perfectly. This burger will never come close to falling apart in your hands.
The fries are frites style thing shoe string things. Not everyones personal favorite– but I really love them. Not too crispy but nice and moist and clean tasting.
Poutines are great too (get the large if you are hungry, the regular is not big at all). Highly recomend the Toma poutine with carmilized onions, bacon and truffle oil.
If you are in the mood for fancy burger and something above the regular «gourmet burger” — go here because its excellent. Its a bit pricy– but again worth it if you are in the mood.

Definitely the best burgers in T dot! We had the cheeseburger and Old School and they were both equally amazing on in-​house Brioche buns… The taste is SO good, better than Heros, Dangerous Dans, Burger Priest, etc…

I was craving a burger and didn’t want to go out and get one. So I turned to Just Eat and ordered from a restaurant about 10 minutes away that they recommended, and that place pulled a bait-​and-​switch — once they realized the order was small, I suddenly became «not in their service territory.»
Then I turned to Unilocal and they recommended Toma.
Dear g/​d that was a good burger. I don’t even much care for their style of french fries and I ate every single one and could’a licked the wrapper. They were even well early of their delivery time estimate, and they have a secure pin-​based ordering system that ensures no neighbour yoinks your dinner.
My only objection is that their «free» delivery has a minimum order of $ 20, which because their prices are fairly reasonable is steep for one person. Well, I have enough cans of soda to get me through work tomorrow now. :)

Me and my girlfriend had a dinner yesterday. The menu is really tempting. Most burgers start at $ 8.99 and the size is very ok.
The one that we ate is really good. The meat was juicy and very tasty.
We also had fries with truffle oil and parsley, definitely this is a must try from the place.

I had lunch today at Toma Burger Addiction. It’s been in our ‘hood for a couple years and I’ve been wanting to check it out.
I ordered The Cheeseburger, without lettuce. I substituted cheddar cheese for mozzarella di Bufala (for an extra $ 1.99). Their brioche buns are baked fresh daily in-​house and branded with a «T «. The patties are made using a blend of fresh ground beef, chuck and brisket, seasoned with sea salt, ground pepper and a special blend of spice, and cooked to the order on their flat griddle. It was a delicious burger … the bun was soft and the patty was tender and juicy.
Chelsea was my server. She was friendly and took good care of me.
I’ll be back!

I had a La Boheme burger for lunch and it was really good. The house made bun was fresh and the burger patty was very tasty and cooked perfectly. The onion and bacon marmalade is what made this burger. Totally worth the expensive price tag.

We were introduced to Toma by a friend who described it as the best burger in toronto! That’s actually a lie, the best burger is a Jonah Burger that i make on my grill and you are going to have to get into my good graces to taste that delicious meat!
We have been to Toma about 6 times now and the burgers which are pricy are truly Amazing!!! im hooked on the The Kalamb (Lamb patty, hold the brie cheese, cumin roasted aioli, Kalamata olives, spinach, roasted red pepper, I like to add goat cheese, and guacamole.
I have also had the monstrous John Wayne. Its a Beef patty, and a lamb patty, and a chicken patty, yup you read that correctly, its a triple decker of heaven! i hold the cheddar, caramelized onions, hold the double smoked bacon not big on swine, chorizo, prosciutto di Parma, soppressata, chipotle mayo. and add goat cheese!
I’m not huge on fries, we usually get it for the kid, we found it to be hit or miss, last order we got totally stale fries.
Overall this is one amazingly delicious burger joint!

Food is like fashion: There are trends, and some of the trends are good and become staples and others fade and disappear. Hot Dog restaurants are the fading fad. As much as one might think the popularity of the great American food would make it a sure-​fire hit and an automatic in being the new successful restaurant idea, it has never really taken off. Maybe it’s because the hot dog is limited in how much you can diversify it or maybe it’s because it’s most commonly found in food stands at half the price a restaurant would offer it at. Either way it’s never been a big hit at any level above the ballpark.
The burger however, has enjoyed more of an appreciation through the public’s tastebuds and thus a far greater speak as the main focus of popular restaurants and broad street appeal. But in the opinion of this reviewer, I feel like that too is on the decline and has already reached its apex. It’s this opinion that has led me to give Toma 3 Stars.
I’ll qualify the 3 Stars. On the one occasion I went to Toma, I’ll be honest, it was delicious. The burger was cooked well and was juicy, the beef was of good quality, the toppings tasty, the fries with aoili browned to golden crispy perfection. But the problem nowadays is that, it’s already been done. The service was fantastic, our waitress was polite, attentive and honest in her suggestions of what was good in the menu. The restaurant was clean, had just enough TV’s not to over do it, and the steady stream of clients told me that this was a place that took pride in their food and making a good burger. Everything was good. But that’s about where I’d leave it. It wasn’t the best burger I’ve ever eaten. It wasn’t spectacular (although the bun was a nice fresh sour dough style bread. High marks for that). The size of the patty was just right. My reason for not going to 4 stars is that I guess I’m growing a bit wary of so many burger joints popping up. The idea is not special anymore. It’s been done. And it’s not that Toma doesn’t do it well, or that they don’t do it better than anyone else, it’s just the trickle down effect of over saturation. Toma is a victim of its own success.
Should you go here? I’d say it’s worth the trip. They had a good special in pitchers of Mill St or Steam Whistle for $ 12.99, the burgers were a decent price especially considering its location, and like I said, the service was excellent. But at the end of the day, it’s just a burger.

This is my new fave burger spot. I went here on Friday night with my bf, we love how the atmosphere is so chill and family friendly. Also, the décor of the place is pretty cool and trendy. We love the fact is that we can actually sit down like in a restaurant to enjoy our dinner unlike Burger Priest, it’s cramp.
I ordered the «The Double Jackpot»: Beef Patty, mushroom, caramelized onion, double bacon, truffle mayo, arugula, truffle oil, balsamic glaze and the best part is the «foie gras». Omg! It just melts in your mouth and flavour just comes together very well.
My bf ordered the «The Wild Life»: Beef patty, swiss cheese, cremini mushrooms, truffle mayo, arugula, double smoked bacon, balsamic glaze, truffle oil. he love his too. For sure I’ll be coming back here again!

We had «The Wild Life» and my bf had «The Dream Come True»… We shared the Toma Poutine — everything was amazing!!!
We were a larger group of 9 who came in without a reservation, and received really great service. He was friendly and helpful and patient!
Hands down, better than Burger Priest or most of the other hyped up burger joints which have popped up lately.
None of the flavours over powered anything else, though my patty was ever so slightly bland.
The pretzel buns, which are freshly baked in-​house were amazing and a perfect compliment to their patties and toppings!
We will definitely be back!

Great burgers, perfectly respectable poutine and well designed interiors.
Have tried The Cheesy burger and the Classic previously and they were both really good.
Portions are healthy and priced reasonably for something of this quality.

This was a really good experience, the food was really well prepared and presented. It looks like they have pride in what they are producing and it shows.
The burgers were made of high quality meat and perfectly cooked for thick burgers, very juicy… my only complaint was that my patty seemed to be missing some flavour, i couldn’t taste any salt whatsoever, it’s possible that it was just one of those patty’s that missed some of the seasoning, but I’ll definitely give it another try just to make sure. If it’s the same then we know they don’t season their burgers very well, which seems odd considering that they go so far with the excellent high quality toppings and their exquisitely delicious home made brioche bun.
I also had the Toma award winning poutine too, the gravy was delicious, the fries fresh and perfectly cooked, i found the caramelized onions were tasty, but too sweet for poutine in my opinion at least, the double smoked bacon was a great touch but i couldn’t taste or smell any truffle oil as they promised. Next time I’ll just have the regular poutine because those curds were super fresh and damn squeaky!
I just hope my burger is better seasoned on my second visit.

We had to chose between Toma and Ganster today and we have went to neither. So we decided to go with this. As others alluded, the fries suck, void of any juice in them.
I had a napeolitan, while it looked good and i give props for presentation, it sucked, you know a burger is really void of taste if you have to use ketchup to bring some taste to it. The burger had some italian thing that I didn’t know was pork, I don’t eat pork, the waitress replaced the burger, 2 points for the service and thats that.
Perhaps they should have burgernator to see how tasteful burgers are done?

A good tasting and generously portioned burger. Décor was better than most burger joints. Service was adequate.
Tip: forgo the pathetic fries

Burger Week continues!
The burgers here were pretty good (very juicy) but I’m not sure if they’re worth the $ 12.99 regular price tag.
The way the tables are cleared and people are seated has to be the most inefficient process I’ve ever witnessed. I’m sure they weren’t expecting lines down the sidewalk for the Burger Week PayPal promo.
I had a root beer float and it was very good. I also tried the poutine which was okay, but the cheese curds weren’t what I was expecting. Fresh, yes, but not «squeaky».

Good premium angus burgers, with great sides like truffle Poutine with bacon.
For burger week, I came in for the Wild Life burger with truffle mayo, arugula, cremini mushrooms and Swiss.
Also ordered the truffle Poutine on the side. Burger was well presented with a branded T bun, and looked the part of premium burger. Angus patty was delicious as expected. Truffle Poutine’s cheese felt disappointing, though the truffle oil definitely adds an air of luxury to the Poutine.
Hostess was fighting back hoards of diners who wanted the free Paypal burger, so the place felt a but crazy at times.

Classe et raffiné, Toma Burger saura vous séduire à coup sûr avec un choix de burgers aussi original que délicieux. Du végé-​burger au boeuf de Kobe sans oublier le fameux steak Angus absolument fabuleux! Beaucoup de «fait maison», petits pains, frites, sauces ou shooter vodka-​caramel… Avec savoir-​faire et bonne humeur, ce couple de charmants français et leur équipe vous réservent un repas des plus agréable! Bön appétit!
