Fantastic smash burgers and fries. Small menu cooked to perfection. Very friendly and patient owner was able to accommodate our fairly complex questions and order (due to allergies). A Plateau gem! Thank you!
What guests say about Bāgā
Bāgā is mostly appreciated for its flavorful smash burgers, quality ingredients, and fries that are often highly praised. The service is generally described as warm and fast, with a pleasant atmosphere and an appreciated patio. However, some customers find the portions small, the prices high, and dining in uncomfortable because of the low tables or layout. The vegetarian options and some special dishes are well received, but a few reviews note uneven quality, especially with the fries and the veggie burger.

incredible new spot in the plateau! ingredients are all local and they taste amazing, staff was so nice and the place itself is also designed perfectly. there is a terrace in the front and at the back, there’s also a few tables inside, you must go there if you want a smash burger!!!
Great gluten free burger options
Great burgers, service was amazing and the fries were perfectly seasoned. Definitely recommend and will be back again.
Stumbled into this restaurant after a friend from out of town and I were looking for something to eat. I can say, quite confidently, that we were served the best burgers we've ever had. The chef isn't simply a business owner, but a craftsman.
Chicken smash, fries and sauce were so delicious. One of the best burgers I have ever had. Workers were very kind and patient with us English speakers visiting from NY.
Fries were good but the veggie burger was pretty bad :/ bun was stale and the “patties” were like a paste, didn’t feel like a burger at all
Veggie burger was kind of a let down, but cool place
Great smash burgers made with love and local ingredients they almost feel healthy 😉
I like the place however when you choose to tip why does it take more than 15% ? It takes double. Fix it or you’re loosing customers
Great food, great staff, fries are really well seasoned and delicious, sauce is incredible and goes well with the fries and burger, highly recommend for dine in or takeout
Nice terrasse in the back
Best fries I’ve ever had. One of the best burgers too( I got the beef). Really nice little garden outside, nice and peaceful. Staff was nice too :)
Smells great from the street, great menu, nice seating area out the back. Would go again!
Wow! What an experience. Not only was the food delicious, the staff was amazing and they took the time to ensure our dietary restrictions (celiac) were met!
well seasoned beef. great brioche bun. sharp cheddar. distinct flavours amongst all the ingredients. not overcooked or too greasy or burnt from the smash style cooking on the thin parts. lettuce length and width chopped for an easy bite that doesn't drag out other ingredient. great.
One of Montreal’s best burger. The breakfast smash was delicious but the MVP was really the Merguez smash burger. On top of being a cool idea that I have never seen anywhere else, everything made sense from the cheese to the sauce passing by the cucumber! Simply the best burger I had in a while. The fries are delicious and perfectly cooked! Loved it
Excellent smash burger!
Amazing experience! Everything was next-level delicious and the food is all locally sourced - they even have details of sources on the wall. Service is super friendly and personal. It's only by a young guy who lives in the neighbourhood and you can tell a lot of thought has gone into every detail. Bonus - most stylish toilet on the Plateau!
I’m really torn, but maybe i’m a harsh critic. The ingredients are INCREDIBLE. Every single piece of the burger is absolutely insane, the beef, the aged cheddar, the sauce, the buns, etc. etc. However, I think it’s too much? The combination of the pickles, the sauce, the fruit ketchup, the aged cheddar all in one bite, i feel like no ingredient gets to shine because of how flavourful every single ingredient is. The cheddar was a bit too sharp and cut out the flavour of the beef, the pickles are a bit too sour and don’t let the ketchup shine. The buns are insane though, keep those 100% I think the move is to order the beef burger without some of these ingredients. I never thought i’d say this but the cheese is too flavourful for the burger! The cheddar is so strong it really hides the flavour of the beef, I tried everything separately dissecting my burger and it was so good. Anyways, maybe i’m super picky, for the price and the quality of the ingredients i just wish everything had some more… breathing room. Gotta try it again with some stuff removed, overall though very satisfying.
The ambiance is sophisticated, and the smash burger with bacon is second to none in MTL
Bomb veggie burger and fries. Good prices.
good burger (tested beef and chicken ones), I liked that they sourced most of the ingredients from around here. Fresh taste. Would go back
Service is great and fast, but the recipe and food making is not consistent, there are lots of room for improvement for fries, the way the coocked patties and chicken
Delighted to find a place with smashed chicken burger, and it’s done so beautifully.
