I was working in the area last Friday along with two colleagues of mine and we were ravenous as we worked right through lunch and hadn’t eaten since the morning. We decided that we wanted burgers and chose this spot based on the good reviews and it was 5 minutes from our job, in the direction of our homes. We got there at about 3:55pm and were saddened as we didn’t pay attention to the fact that they don’t open until 4pm. We were in the process of crossing the street to just eat at the nearest spot we could find and heard someone call out to us. It was the owner just coming in. Talk about perfect timing. He grilled us up some fresh burgers and fries that he makes in house himself and had our meals ready in just under 15 minutes. This is definitely a top 5 burger spot. I truly can’t remember the last time I’ve had such an excellent burger and the fries were amazing as well. Five Guys & those other chain burger spots don’t even hold a candle to The Bulging Burger if you really want a top quality and properly made burger. They’re a few seats if you want to sit and eat, but it’s not a dine in type of spot. Don’t let that stop you though, because I bet most of those dine in spots don’t even come close.

What a wonderful burger place! The burgers were so tasty, with large portions and very good prices. They even have vegetarian options! The owner was also very nice. We will definitely come back :)

A small burger stand, family-run business that has absolutely delicious burgers! First time coming here, had the Mediterranean Burger which was one of the best I've had. The fries are hand cut and freshly made, also super delicious!
Note: limited seating area, so best for takeouts.

A true handmade burger joint. You walk in, there is 1 guy, a counter, and not much else. You order, wait 15 minutes, and have the best burger of your life. It's that simple. There's not much in terms of comfortable seating inside, but that doesn't really matter in place like this.

I recommend any of the signature burgers.

I rarely eat out, and it is even more rare that I eat burgers. My husband and I were starving and walked past The Bulging Burger a few months ago but decided to go back and go inside. Delicious. Honestly. The portion sizes were also huge. I split the Jr Moo Moo with my daughter. Highly recommended for those who love a good burger with delicious fries.

We always leave happy and full. The owner is a great guy and his burgers are so filling and delicious. The fries have a great flavour too. The space is small inside but you have a window seat to the world of Queen Street, or if the weather is nice, grab it to go and enjoy it on the RC Harris hill overlooking the lake. Great picnic treat :)

Was there on Sat, 26 , appr 2
while I was at the beach.
I ordered a burger and a poutine.
I realized when I got to my car, I was given a frie instead of the poutine .
I went back, owner apologized and proceed to place the order for the poutine.
When it was done, he gave it to me free …I offered to pay but he insisted…
Now , that was good customer service, someone that valued a customer .
The food was excellent … all home cut thin fries. Burger was to die for and My cousin said it was the best poutine she ever tasted (from U.S.)
I definitely will be back and will spread the word … it’s been a hidden secret.Thank you🙂

Go to burger place whenever I go silver birch park!

Best burger I've tried in toronto so far

For signature menu, junior size should be enough for most people

I’m still full from visiting yesterday! The reviews don’t lie, massive portions for the price and the food is made to order fresh! Owners a super nice guy who even throw in a free pop for no reason. Will go back!

Got the junior moo moo burger. The burger is juicy, tasty, good ingredients, and I loved how the cheese felt like how you would melt it on a burger at home. ONLY downside was too much mayo, so if you don’t like a lot of sauce ask for a light amount. A little messy but that made it feel more homey. The fries were good when hot. A little too thin to reheat well. The cook was warm and welcoming. There are some high rise seats for dining but no bathroom or sanitizer if you want to wash your hands. Overall, I believe the junior size would be satiating for most people.
