New favourite spot in Calgary for burgers. Fast service, tastes great and the portion sizes make for good bang for your buck. Paid $50 for burger and fries for 3 people. Would recommend.Parking: Parked in the Nash parking lot out back for a few min

Always a great meal from Bussin’Always had take away as there’s not really any seating around but it’s worth the stop. Love all the milkshake flavours and generous serving sizes

I’ll start with the pros of my visit. I’ll admit, the place is very unique in terms of decor and choice of simplicity for colour, great for attracting new customers and catching the attention of potential customers driving by. The menu has a wide variety of choices to pick from and even has vegan friendly options. I didn’t have to wait too terribly long for the food, given that it seems that they make their food and drinks fresh. However with all the positive aspects of this restaurant, it lacks in quality of food and pricing. I ordered the Nashville Chicken Hot, along with an order of Mac and cheese wedges and a “Go Bananas” milkshake. The milkshake was pretty tasty, but paying $9.43 for a substantially smaller cup, as opposed to if I were to get a shake from Peter’s drive in, I’d still pay less for more at Peter’s. The Mac and cheese wedges were okay, decently seasoned, but were burnt in the fryer, which offset the quality. Now, the burger is obviously supposed to be the star of the show, but to me it absolutely was not. The spice level is exactly what I’d expect for a Nashville hot, I’ll give brownie points for that. Subsequently, the chicken was very, very, over-seasoned. Its comparable if I were to say that I took all the spices they used in the breading and dumped it straight into my mouth, quite unpleasant and very bitter. The bread was soggy from the grease, the lettuce was barely present, and the singular pickle, and the sriracha mayo were the only redeeming factors. If it were up to me, dial the spices way back, letting the flavour of the chicken do its job. Additionally, I’d definitely consider putting a tomato slice for added juiciness, to make it a bit less dry of a bite without taking away flavour. All in all, based off of the other reviews of people having sub par experiences even with the beef smashed burgers, soggy or over fried fries, I don’t think I’ll be a returning customer. I’d recommend taking a trip to burger mechanic or regrub.

Sign says “burgers, shakes, waffles” but this location doesn’t have the waffles mentions on the big sign out front. Nowhere to sit either. What was the point of this location? ???

I ordered takeout from here for dinner, we had 2 burgers and 2 orders of fries. The fries were fine, like any other fast food place. One burger was made just fine, no issues but nothing particularly great about it.The other burger was made with an undercooked-raw patty. It is pretty unclear how one could make a smash burger so undercooked given how thin the patties are. The ground beef was beyond medium/rare, it was cold-raw in many spots. I wouldn't risk eating here a second time over fear of getting sick.

Pretty good smash burger, I had the one with the onion ring on it.1 order of fries is absolutely massive, easily enough for 2-3 people, and these are like McDonald's fries, shoestring cut, but with some actual golden color to them.My only nitpicks are that if you like sauce this is the place for you. The burger sauce tasted good, but I couldn't eat the last 1/3 of the burger because it was such a mess, complete overkill on the sauce. This would not have been a problem if there was a dining room to sit and eat in and a washroom to wash up after, but there is no dining room so be prepared to eat in your car or clear snow off any sitting spots in the wintertime.Solid Burger, great shoestring fries, definitely a messy experience. I think the value is good, you'll pay about $30 for 2 to eat, you'll spend just as much at a fast food place, but my perspective is skewed because I recently moved from Ontario so literally everything is cheaper here lol

Ordered a chicken burger and yam fries. The fries tasted off some were really soggy some were perfectly crispy some were crunchy in middle (undercooked) seasond good tho. The chicken Sandwich i could only take 2 bites it was such a soggy mess (within 10 min of pickup) and it smelled like gasoline or exhaust as well as the bussin wrapper it came in. Really wanted to like this place.

Took over an hour to get a burger and fries. The quality of the food was terrible. Drenched in grease, bread soggy from it, look at the mess of soggy fries they call poutine. Terrible food. Don’t spend your hard earned money here, order from one of the other great burger places in the city like regrub, class clown or burger mechanics.

Great little burger joint and is even halal! The tater tots on the breakfast burger are the perfect touch on a phenomenal diner style burger.
