smashburger

excuse me, are you open?. good fresh food, custom built to order. lots of choices in order to get exactly what you want in your burger.

criticizm: i arrived late evening and wondered if they were open. no indication from the street side if they are open. window is blacked out, no "open" sign. drove around and saw all the chairs with their legs up, on the tables. looked empty. saw someone walking so i tried the door.

it opened so i stuck my had in and asked when they closed. the answer was that they would be closing in an hour!

they need to indicate to the street front whether or not they are open.

edit: i have returned 2 or 3 times and enjoy theburgersbetter, each time. good food. my advice: design your own burger exactly as you want it with any of many possible ingredients and buns. the price will likely be almost exactly what one of their suggestedburgerson the menu is. take advantage of all the choices you have here.

this place was interesting. there are so many different types of burger joints that everybody hypes up and they aren't that great. this place is a little of the opposite... theburgersare smashed right on the grill, which causes them to be very greasy. however, the flavor is great! they definitely suit your desires while still keeping things simple. the fries reminded me of mcdonalds and weren't great, the shakes are also just okay. the restaurant is a little small and things are crammed. it's definitely worth trying. it's a good burger that flies a little under the radar. i'd say it's a 3/5...

recommendable for the intermediate stop

they serve excellentburgersof a refined style, tasty, and nicely cooked. orders were carried out in no time at all.

addicted. i don't what they are putting in theirburgersbut my wife and i are addicted. this has become our goto place - we have even found ourselves choosing it over "nicer" restaraunts. we may need rehab if it gets any worse.

mushroom swiss on egg bun +bacon + grilled onions - burger perfection!

prices a bit high. i enjoyed smashburger a lot. the burger was quality and their smashfries were decent. i appreciate the audacity to actually doctor their fries up a bit with various herbs. i got their beehive burger every time i have gone, and there is no doubt it's good stuff.
however, their prices are a bit high in my opinion. there are no combo meals with burger and fries, or even a drink. they do offer like a 50cent discount if you order a burger and fries though. aside from that, a full combo meal will set you back about $8-10. if the full meal was around $7 i would have no problem, but every time i go to smashburger i always think about astro burger just across the street and feel like i would have gotten a similar quality meal for less money.

overall, good food, just a tad high in price though. worth the visit for the uniqueburgersthey offer though.

fantastic burgers. this is a step up from the traditional in-and-out or apollo burger fast foodburgersin my opinion. i love the bbq honey bacon beehive burger. the smash fries are ok. not my fave but worry a try. in the old u food location (which was terrible food by the way) in the parking lot of jo-ann fabric store on 123rd south.
