The Best Big Mac Inspired Dishes in Toronto

Toronto chefs are trying their hand at recreating the city's best takes on the Big Mac!

The Big Mac is something we all know of and possibly love and it’s evident through the different versions that can be found at many burger joints and restaurants across the city. This classic burger is piled high with two beef patties, pickles, crisp shredded lettuce, diced onions, a slab of American cheese and special sauce, all sandwiched between a sesame seed bun. While nothing comes close to replicating the original, these spots are taking this monstrosity of a burger to a whole new level.

Here are some of the best takes on the Big Mac in Toronto.

Bar Vegandale

This Big Mac equivalent is so similar to the original that you wouldn’t even be able to tell that it’s vegan. It includes two soy patties, lettuce, cheese, pickles and onions, and is served with crispy fries.
