Monsieur Cheeseburger/Photo by Mark Avila

This is Mark! I’m happy to take you back to Montreal for another special burger tour. I take you to a Montreal favourite that has been serving burgers for over 70 years, Mister Steer. Established in 1958, this joint first opened its doors in Quartier Latin and has since expanded to a bigger space in Rue Saint-Catherine. They made their name known for serving the finest cut of Kosher Beef, offering the best ingredients along with the famous Mister Steer seasoning. 

The Burger menu was huge, a page and a half worth, of their best burger offerings and then some. Ranging from cheeseburgers, double bacon burgers, and burgers packed with the full works, the options are limitless. I went ahead and chose the Monsieur Cheeseburger- a beef patty with tomato, lettuce, red onions, and topped with a thick layer of melted cheese. 

First impressions… it was very petite, but the beef patty did not disappoint. It was huge! I couldn’t wait to dig in. The first bite can be described in one word, juicy. Cutting into the meat was clean and smooth, as if I was cutting into butter. The melted cheese was creamy and gave a touch of sweetness to balance out the savoury taste of the burger. 

I can see why Mister Steer has been a Montreal favourite for over 70 years. From the food to the people, everything was genuine was simply delicious. I’m wondering to myself why I didn’t discover this place sooner. Shoutout to my friend who was with me on this trip and recommended this place to try. I was not disappointed. If you ever find yourself in downtown Montreal and looking for a classic diner style burger, then Mister Steer is the place to go!
