Boy! What even is this?? The most amazing smash burger ever? YUP! I could stop there, but I'll go ahead and elaborate a little.
If you've never been, it would be easy to miss as Gustos has repurposed an old house into their restaurant. Super cool! It's kinda small inside, but also roomy...if that makes any sense. There are several small tables, a few big ones, a few bar top tables, and a porch with additional seating outside. You order at the bar, fill your own drinks, and someone brings you your food. They were super busy when I visited today during lunch with some friends. The guy taking orders - I wish I knew his name - was very upbeat and even remembered my drink order (yes, they do have a full bar menu) when I came back up. Actually, every employee I encountered was nice, even with how crowded and busy they were.
I typically never finish my burger, especially with a double patty, which is this "standard" burger. I will usually still order a single with a smash burger because it's usually too much food. The man taking our order reassured me, the only way to order, would be the double patty since these patties are SMASHED. Ok, I took his advice. He was right. The patties are thin and crispy, I mean literally perfect. I love the crunch around the outside of the patty. The cheese could have been a little more melted, but the overall flavor was perfect on the Gusto burger. I also ordered a side of tots, which were perfectly crispy and seasoned just right. This was still a lot of food so I ended up taking half of my meal home.
Don't walk....run to this place! But just be warned, it will be busy! Even in yucky weather, people came in droves during lunch hour on a Friday. The line moved quickly though.
