FOR SURE ONE OF THE BEST BURGER PLACES IN TORONTO — everything tasted so FRESH and it felt like SO MUCH CARE had gone into everything, it was ALL SO GOOD !!!!
the holly jolly valentino made me feel like i was literally EATING christmas – it was basically a hot crispy-fried peppery piece of chicken lying on a bed of super mushy savoury stuffing, with hints of sweet, tart cranberry sauce. it seriously tasted to festive and holiday-like, and i absolutely LOVED it.
the crudy was ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL – it was a sloppy, messy, DELICIOUS cheeseburger that was just DROWNING in perfectly fragrant, aromatic, caramelized onions that had a slight crunch. the smashed patties were REALLY crispy and had such a distinct, beefy, smoky flavour and it just absolutely MELTED in your mouth, along with all the gooey cheesiness. the bun was alsO super soft, and honestly the whole thing was just so MELTY that it was literally like falling apart in my hands?? it was super juicy and kinda greasy like too, the way the oil kinda seeped through the paper.
the fries were simple but also so perfect, honestly exemplifying “fast food fries” as a side. they were long and thin (my favourite kind) and crispy, perfectly seasoned with salt, and didn’t have a super heavy or greasy potato flavour – overall very light, and a bit like mcdonald’s but in the best way possible. so so so addicting, especially dipped in that creamy, mayo-y valentino sauce.
the pickle chips were also unique, and as someone who doesn’t really like pickles, i really appreciated how the tangy pickle taste wasn’t too strong. the outside breading was thick and some were crispier than others, but i think it was because they were freshly fried and didn’t have time to “crisp up” fully yet. still a super fantastic snack (a lot like thick chips???), and definitely get either the valentino or rudy sauce to dip it in.
last but DEFINITELY DEFINITELY NOT LEAST, THE BANANA PUDDING!!!!! UGH this was so good, the way that it was creamy but also super thick and not too sweet AT ALL — the custard or large chunks of banana weren’t sickeningly sweet somehow, and there was SO MUCH CRUMBLE LAYERED AND SPRINKLED ALL THROUGHOUT which i absolutely LOVEDDDD. its also quite a large cup too!

Listen…. I’ve been ordering from this restaurant for years, and I’ve told every single one of my friends that they had the best poutine in the city. Not “good,” not “solid” THE best. Proper Québec style poutine with real squeaky cheese curds, the kind that actually defines the dish.
But apparently a handful of customers who clearly do not understand what poutine is complained that the cheese “wasn’t melty enough.” And instead of ignoring that nonsense, the restaurant changed the recipe.
Let me be perfectly clear: You people who complained? Poutine is not supposed to be made with melty cheese. It’s not supposed to stretch like pizza. It’s not supposed to look like some generic diner gravy fries situation. The entire point of poutine (since its creation in rural Québec in the late 1950s) is fresh cheese curds that squeak against your teeth. That’s literally the hallmark of authenticity. If you don’t hear the squeak, you’re not eating poutine. You’re eating a sad impersonation.
Now the cheese here is melted, limp, and indistinguishable from every other forgettable poutine in this goddamn city. The dish that used to set this place apart is now… honestly? Pretty gnarly.
To the customers who pressured this: Please, I am begging you to STOP ordering foods you don’t understand and then demanding they be changed. Not every dish needs to be Americanized, smothered, melted, or made Instagram friendly. Some things have cultural roots and actual standards.
To the restaurant: You had something special. You had the gold standard. And you let people who don’t know what poutine is talk you out of it.
I won’t be ordering again until the real recipe returns.
Love u Rudy. Hate u guys that pressured them xo

I recently visited Rudy’s for a burger and fries and found the experience to be pleasant, though not remarkable. The meal was satisfactory, but I felt it could have offered a bit more in terms of flavor and overall presentation. The staff were courteous and the atmosphere comfortable, which I certainly appreciated. While it may not have fully met my expectations, it was still an agreeable stop.
