    One of three locations (so far!) Food came very fast. There are fun art installations! Also, they offer pepsi instead of coke, which is something I prefer :)

    honestly this was way better than expected. The burger was big and juicy and it even came with french fries. The weight was a bit long but overall this is excellent value!

    Hamburgers are tasty. The French fries are good but the onion strings are awesome. Could eat a whole basket by its self.

    Got the grilled chicken club with fries, food was hot, delicious, and most importantly not over saturated with salt or oil. This place gets it right with the food and the portion size was big as well.

    Excellent food, great value for the price! The one on Chapala, across the street from the California Pizza Kitchen. Parking on the street is your best bet, It's basically free. The staff is friendly and understands what real customer service is. I like how Kyle's supports local non-profits in our community.

    It is not even fair how insanely delicious their food ALWAYS is here (consistency is important). Best food for killer prices. Never been disappointed. Treat yourself and your hungry tummy to Kyle's Kitchen... You won't be disappointed! As always, thanks and love to the crew!

    Great lunch spot! Service was a little slow for the time of day we stopped in (earlier than lunch rush), but the place was nice and clean. The girl bussing tables was so sweet and attentive, and I love that they are giving back to the community. Fries were DELICIOUS.

    We had an ahi sandwich, the California chicken sandwich, the earth burger and, the bacon and egg burger with fries-all delicious! The staff was very helpful and nice too!

    I've had the regular chicken sandwich a few times and it's quite good but then I got the buffalo chicken sandwich and it was terrible It was drenched in salt and French fries Luke warm and soggy even though I special ordered them, very surprising, usually when you special order fries they come hot and crisp. In short: this exemplifies why I don't like eating out. Food that's unhealthy, over priced and not even tasty. I've drunk about a litre and half of water so far to try to flush out the pound of salt I consumed.

    Great food! The staff is also very friendly and helpful. We’ve eaten here in person and also ordered it for delivery and all experiences have been positive. The food has been fresh and the correct temperature. The various flavor combinations are delicious and they also have great classics. The prices are really good for the quality. We’ve also eaten here with our young children and it’s very family friendly (and has a dog friendly patio area).

    Veggie patty on a baked fresh daily by and a almond berry salad made a perfect meal. The patty wasn’t very flavorful but fresh, plant based and good for me! The salad was incredible with fresh strawberries and crisp greens with a great Erica portion of goat cheese. Highly recommend this fasterant.

    It's a very standard fast food restaurant. Both the burger and the chicken sandwiches are very placid, but at least it isn't terrible. Prices are high for a fast food place. Overall, it is a place to go to if you want a place that's for everyone.

    This place is great! We were leaving the zoo and needed a quiet but kid friendly burger spot before we headed back home and his place was perfect. Burger was phenomenal & the club sandwich absolutely delicious. Their servers are super friendly and love to chat which our kiddo didn't mind at all. Definitely recommend this place to any families looking for a quick & affordable sit down place. The art on the wall is an awesome plus!

    Yummy food. Great location and fabulous service. Had the Asian chopped salad with chicken. Was good but something too much dressing and liquid from the mandarin oranges.

  • 4/5 Joseph H. 2 years ago on Google
    I love what Kyle's stands for and I love the style of the restaurants, especially the downtown location. Fresh ingredients. The buffallo chicken sandwich is simply the best. Their Cobb salad is also one of my favorites. My only criticism is that their burgers can be bland. This is easily fixed with a sprinkle of dry rub. This isn't a huge deal as I feel they do this on purpose to keep things on the healthier side.

    The chicken burger I got was delicious, love the buns! The service was great, food was fast, and the charity aspect is fantastic. Overall a win for me. The salad had a lot of dressing though, FYI. It was great for me, but a heads up to those of you who don't like their salads with a lot of dressing.

    Decent veggie patty, could be better seasoned. Also they could include more whole veggie / grains in the patty. Tomato basil soup also needed extra seasoning. Fries was nice and crispy. Kale cranberry salad was flavourful.. Overall decent experience.

  • 3/5 tru K. 2 years ago on Google
    They didn't have grilled mushrooms or swiss cheese which is how I like my burger so that was a bit of a disappointment. I asked and she said they did have pepperjack which I appreciated but it never made it to my burger. I looked. Both sides. The saving grace was the really good tomato soup I ordered. Even without the croutons or shredded cheese that comes with it, it was pretty flavorful. Here's the thing tho, it's a burger joint. I didn't come for soup.

    I regularly get food from here. The buffalo chicken sandwich is my favorite. Sometimes I get it lettuce wrapped and then chop it up and eat it like a salad. Definitely recommend. My 6 year old tells me the French fries are “scrumptious” his words and he doesn’t like any French fries. Always super kind and helpful and seem like they really care. Great place to eat and support. They also support lots of great causes. Autism is in my family and I appreciate that they do a lot for that community.

    Every visit to Kyle's has been a delicious pleasure. I usually order the Thai Peanut Salad with chicken, which I highly recommend. Also great is the basic cheeseburger. Their bread rolls and burger buns are outstanding and this puts them a rank above other good burger restaurants. Never had bad service, always friendly.

    Not bad it was actually really good. However the staff need to be clear and knowledgeable on how to dictate and explain their specials/deals. The burger was really good. The fries were fresh and they definitely do not reuse the oil (well it for this visit at least). I'd go again.
