The Works Gourmet Burger Bistro

6 degrees of Kevin Bacon (with grilled chicken) and a 'Martini' poutine were more than enough for lunch. The burger was nice. The different types of bacon worked well with the chicken. I wasn't sure what the bacon straws were going to be but they turned out to be hickory sticks (and I like hickory sticks). The gravy was a welcome step up from the dark brown, excessively salty, powdered mix I've been getting from other restaurants in the Ottawa area.

Went there for the first time this weekend and was really impressed. The menu is exceptional, I have never seen so many burger options before, you get to choose the toppings, meat, bread and sides. Some of the most interesting toppings I saw was chocolate and Bacon... The there are the milkshake.... I had two ✌️. And that's all I have to say about that.

Came here for lunch and got one of their lunch special burgers. The lunch special is $11-$12 for a burger, pop, and fries, which is pretty decent, but the burger patty is half their normal size unless you pay to upgrade. Additionally, I guess we weren't told, but if you want like...usual toppings (onion, lettuce, tomato) you have to specifically ask for them. Onion rings were also an extra ~$2.50, which seems like a pretty steep upgrade price for onion rings.

Overall, it was okay, but not anything that special. Probably won't bother going back.

Today, I went to THE WORKS. I had the Jurassic Burger... just so everyone knows there's no dinosaur meat in it. the burger was really heavy, and I finished most of it. My friend who was sitting beside me got the steamed broccoli as a side (which kind of felt like he was trying a little too hard to be healthy), it looked okay, but I was glad I got the seasoned fries instead. I went with a bunch of co-workers, as it were, and we didn't talk too much about work, so I'd say that the conversation was really enjoyable.

Awesome restaurant! The menu was great, and very varied (in terms of burgers) with just about any and every kind of burger you can want! (50 different variations to choose!) The poutine we had to begin with was perfect! Just the way I like it. Then, then burger I ordered came, and oh boy was that a treat. First time there, but definitely not the last. I really recommend this place for the lovers of fantastic burgers, and for anyone who reads the menus through, cause theirs is hilarious with their name choices!
