The Best Veggie Burger in Toronto

Best Veggie Burger... slightly oxymoronic. A bit like best dictator or best pile of dog poop.

Nope. Best veggie burger is from The Court Jester on Danforth, absolutely unreal. #nomnomnom

Utopia and Rivoli both have great burgers,
Utopia is a more conventional style, really great though, meaty like even, whereas Rivoli is anti texture, twist on the burg.
I dont think Fresh's is anything super special, Stampede Bison Grill beats it in my opinion... Havent tried a few of the others though, great post for vegheads!

As someone who is by no stretch of the imagination a vegetarian, I have to say that's an absolutely idiotic statement. My one problem is with veggie burgers that are laced with soy filler and/or nitrates; the ones that are based on mushrooms/quinoa/etc. are fine but the soy based ones are probably about as unhealthy as it gets.

How is a deep fried mushroom a veggie burger? Burgers priest may have great meat burgers but I would rather eat at the Harvey's across the road then eat their ridiculous attempt at a veggie "burger"

I don't get why you're such a big fan or portobello mushrooms stuff with cheese - sounds kinda gross, and if you're vegan that's a no go.

I'll check out some of the other options on this list though. Burger Bar is a great restaurant but Fresh...meh, I think it's overrated...

C'est What has an amazing handmade veggie burger (this coming from a dedicated omnivore), but they don't have it all the time unfortunately.

you missed queen mother's cosmic burger.

Sarah, large mushroom caps have been used as in place of meat patties in vegetarian dishes for a long time, and many mainstream veggie burgers are made largely from diced mushrooms. I would much rather have a mushroom than the ridiculous, sugary, and allergen-filled soy and corn patties most places serve.

Back when the only (well that I knew of) option really was Lick's, Epicure Cafe actually had a really good Veggie Burger - they also had two, one that was a thick soy patty, but the other seemed more homemade - probably a mix of chickpeas and grains - with the toppings/stlye you could pick and good fries, it stood up. However, last time I was there it was one of those nasty ones where you can see the peas and corn and pretty disappointing that what I thought was one of the best ones, mostly because it wasn't a frozen patty, looked like it wasn't being made anymore.

I've had the BQM tofu one and thought it was pretty good. Swiss Chalet too hahahah

surprisingly: Real Sports Bar.

It's hard to criticize all veg burgers as a group, since they come in so many different varieties. Each one is a full recipe, as opposed to a meat burger which is usually just one ingredient: meat. I've had great ones and bad ones.

From this list, I've only had a veg burger from Fresh on Spadina, and it was pretty bad. (Their sweet potato fries were soggy too).

I like the veg burger from Harvey's provided I get the mesquite sauce. I can go crazy with toppings at South St Burger. The veg option at Hero is pretty good too. And Lick's is also pretty decent and kudos to them for making their own.

The absolute worst burger of all time has to be the one at A&W. The one time I ordered it (at the food court inside Square One I think), I actually found a flake of bacon in it on top of the veg patty. But even without that crap in there, it's just clear A&W absolutely HATES vegetarians and wants to make them sad. It's even worse than the veg burger at Burger King.

Try The Local on Roncesvalles homemade veg burger...smoked tofu and black bean. Don't forget to add the sauteed onions as well. So good!!

Or best bedroom romp with JennyT.

If it's 'veggie' - DON'T CALL IT BURGER. Call it something else.

queen mother cafe's veggie burger is really good!

LETS'S REDO THIS LIST FOR 2012!!! Would be a great addition!!!
