Dragon’s Lair Burger

Talk about an unassuming burger joint. This place is located in a pretty sad looking food court in Westbrook Mall. I would’ve never stopped to eat here if not for the chalkboard that said it was the winner of Alberta Burger Fest! Friendly staff work behind the counter.
I tried the cheeseburger and poutine and my mother had the fish burger. The burgers are made to order and you have your choice of various toppings (including sauteed onions and mushrooms!) and sauces. The burger was great as was the poutine, which had lots of cheese curds and the fries were freshly made. My mother really enjoyed her fish burger. They also have bacon jam, which sounds very intriguing, for a small charge and I will definitely try that next time.

holy shit! so good! my mom got the Jammin’ Dragon, or Jammin’ Burger or whatever it’s called that won the Burger Week prize, and it was awesome. Huge.
I got the fish burger, and it was perfect — light, crispy, not at all greasy.
And we shared the onion rings which were pretty good too!
really good service, good prices, and delicious quality!
will return. often.

Burgers were ok the bun was too soggy. I did like the taste of the bacon jam and chipotle mayo. Had the onion rings and thought they could use some seasoning. The burgers didnt wow me. Lack of ambiance and being in a mall food court didnt add anything to the experience.

Alberta Burger Fest Champion? Challenge accepted. The burger was so good. Fresh beef, and I’m way too drunk to remember what was on it.
Decent price, great staff. If you don’t get bacon, damn you: P

Best burger champion? They deserve it.
Dragon’s Lair Burger has a very unassuming front end located in a food court, but don’t let that throw you off! Their burgers are amazing! I tried the winner of the AB Burger Fest which is the Jammin Dragon double party burger with jalapeño-​pimento cheddar cheese, caramelized onion bacon jam, and ancho chipotle mayo. Wow is it fresh and flavourful. Their fries are also very crispy.
This place has a cool take on burgers for those who are celiac or gluten intolerant and offer all of their burgers in a «protein box» without a bun. Awesome for those of us who need to keep gluten out of their diet.
If you love burgers, come check this place out.
P. s. The owner is super nice!

Seems like good food and my boyfriend loves the burger. However we don’t go there all too often because I don’t eat meat and the veggie burger is sub-​par. It’s mushy and has little flavour. It’s beet based I think. I believe they can do better! Keep up the other good work tho :)

Best poutine in the city!!! I love the spicy chicken poutine with franks red hot gravy!

The staff was very friendly and helpful and the veggie burger I ordered was fantastic! Was a little mushy and falling apart slightly, but it more than made up for that in flavour. The location is really convenient, I’ll definitely be coming back as I go to Westbrook at least once a week to grab groceries and will sometimes grab lunch.

Burger…4 stars. Above-​average burger. The patties are a bit slender (likely due to burger press) but taste nice and fresh, not frozen. The choice of condiments is a nice touch… you can even have your onions and mushrooms sautéed if you wanted to for no additional cost. The spicy «Hero» sauce was also good. The patties could use a little bit of seasoning but this isn’t a gourmet joint. Ask to have the buns slightly toasted on the grill for more flavor and hold, as they tend to fall apart fairly easily.
Spicy Parmesan fries…2 stars. Whatever hot sauce they used to toss the fries in just doesn’t work… it gives the fries a little kick but also a soggy texture. A dash of chili powder would work better, keeping the fries nice and crispy. The parmesan is very light and the taste is practically nonexistent… perhaps overwhelmed by the hot sauce.

They have a vegan burger which is made in-​house. I though it was pretty good. It fell apart a bit when the guy was wrapping it up. Can get veggie gravy with fries as well. I will be back.

Very bad! Fries are grey and soggy, chicken burger burnt on outside raw in the middle. Burger very gross tasting. Toppings dried out. Owner wouldn’t give money back for 23 $ after staff serving raw and I mean raw food! Refused to call us back after we called him. No alberta health or business licence posted any were! Treated like scum I would avoid this place unless u want to get really sick.
