Gorilla Burger: Reviews & Ratings
Oh my god. Best burger place ever. Best part is that it’s in a minit mart. The burger is super juicy but not too rare or too crisp. The gorilla glaze is such a great combo of flavors. The fries are bomb and well seasoned, never cold. The kitchen is small but you can see the team hard at work. Great food. Everyone is super sweet. So underrated.
First of all this is a burger joint. Secondly it is located in the back of a mini mart gas station. If that makes you want to avoid the food then put simply your missing out of some of the best food in all of Vancouver when it comes to burgers and fries. If i still have you reading, its something about the taste, the food tastes authentic like politicians used to seem. If your near the mall. Dont mind waiting for the food to be made fresh after you order. Give this gem of a grill a try and tell us what the food was like.
Do not judge this book by its cover! I don't recall having a burger as good as this - EVER! Who would have thought!? This was all the food one needs for a day. Huge portion! Great price. 8.99 for the burger special. The chicken strips were also big and delicious said my chicken strips connoisseur son. The crinkle fries were also yummy and perfectly hot and crisp. There's tons of beverages including the F'REAL milkshake/smookthie machine to choose from as it is also a gas station/ mini mart. The people were all friendly and seem very caring as I believe I saw something that said FAMILY-OWNED & OPERATED. I love to support local businesses! It's conveniently located near the Vancouver Mall, they are open 7 days a week with long hours! The restroom was clean and you know how I like a clean pitstop if you've been following me for any amount of time. Lol They've got a new customer for life! I hope you go check them out soon.
Unbelievably good bacon cheeseburger basket that comes out of a gas station deli. You would probably never stumble across this gem unless you happened to stop for gas. Fresh beef patties and fresh toppings as well. If you're near Vancouver Mall and hungry you have to try this place.
Gorilla Grill is a speakeasy for cheeseburgers. It's hidden inside a Shell gas station. On face value it's a bit suspect. You'd never know they serve one of the best burgers anywhere. Thankfully a friend turned me onto Gorilla. OH MY! It's delicious and gorilla size. I have no idea how many calories it is, but I'm pretty sure it approaches or perhaps exceed the FDA standard of calories for daily consumption. I ordered my with jalapenos and grilled onions. I know I'm gushing about this burger but you'd be hard pressed to find a better one of this style. The joint is take out only. They have unusual hours and they will be changing (for the better) on Jan 6. They close at 3pm most days. Best to check first.

Wow! Mind blowing that burgers this delicious are coming from a gas station convenience store. I had today's special, BBQ, bacon, blue cheese and it was incredible! Service was exceptional as they are very nice folks working there. I had the krinkle fries and they were light and crunchy. Amazing! Highly recommend!
Best burger I've ever had!!! The seasoning on the patty is perfect. The lettuce and tomato are fresh. The pickles, yummy. It is made fresh. Right there. No preheated parts to this burger. Yes, it is in a gas station. My husband had the mushroom burger. So many mushrooms! Service was super friendly. I paid with a credit card and waited for the screen to ask for a tip. Nope. No tipping option was given. BEST BURGERS EVER!
Killa Gorilla Burger Walking into the mini mart at the Shell station with the greasy smell of fried jojos coupled along with the pungent odor of freshly pumped gas had me initially question my decision to try Gorilla Burger. I placed the order for a bacon cheeseburger at the counter at the back of the mini mart . Everything on it, including the "secret sauce." I spent about 10 minutes wandering the aisles in the Shell station mini mart waiting for my order. They called my name, and I picked up the brown sack, and the heft surprised me. Since there was no room at the 1 tiny mini mart table , I took the sack out to the car , popped the tailgate, and called it a sunny day picnic. I pulled the foil wrapped package out of the bag and unwrapped what was definitely one of the largest 10 dollar burgers I had ever seen. The Monster patty was layered with bacon, lettuce, tomato , melted cheese, and slathered with their secret sauce. The Goriila Grill bacon cheeseburger was super juicy and delicious. Expertly cooked and big enough to take a third home for a quick zap in the microwave later on. GG hack- ask for extra napkins, you'll need them...... in a good way Handicap doable and recommended Final take.....do yourself a favor, if you like burgers, overlook the mini mart vibe and trust the reviews. You won't be sorry. Highly recommended
