This relatively new Richmond Hill neighborhood Smashed Burger joint using Angus Beef has been featured in a number of recent YouTube food blogs with positive feedback.
As such, we decided to give it a try even though our go-to Richmond Hill smash burger place has been the impressive and ever-consistent ’ Grillies ’ on Bayview and Elgin Mills.
Overall, the products offered at Jay’s are acceptable and fairly enjoyable with the curly-fries a yummy stand out. The Angus beef patties and accompanying condiments, such as the sauteed caramelized onions are nicely executed. Though the edges of the burgers can be a bit more seared, charred and crispy.
Sadly, the overall eating experience was spoiled by the choice of using ’ Potato Bread ’ as the Burger bun. IMHO, a wrong and incompatible choice especially when used in burger options involving excessive moist and wet fillings…eg., Oklahoma Burger with sauteed onions. The end result was a messy and soggy product that put a damper on the overall enjoyment!
Pricing was a bit on the high side with $5.00 bottled sodas steep and exorbitant!
" Grillies " STILL my go-to smash burger joint in Richmond Hill!
