Smack Burgers

My friend took me here last week and the burgers were so flameeeee. Doubled back and brought my mom and she’s obsessed with the onions rings!! Definitely a great spot with super friendly service.

Ordered the Big Smack with a Snack Box (combo including Beef Tallow Fries and a Drink) and a side of Onion Rings. Their Big Smack burger comes with 2 flattened patties, American cheese, grilled onions, pickles, and smack sauce. This burger was a bit more salty around the edges but had an alright amount of cheese and pickles spread on top. Aside from the flat patties, there is not much that stands out especially at the price offered. The beef tallow fries were cut waffle style and were pleasant to eat, a touch more enjoyable than the burger. The fries also came with a thousand island dressing and there were ranch and barbecue sauce options too. The Onion Rings were chunky onion rings that had a nice crunch to them. This place is located directly on a high traffic street but fortunately there are convenient vehicle entrances to the adequately sized parking lot. The staff were very nice and courteous. There is a roof above the ordering and eating area, there are no seats but there is standing space by the counter tables against the walls facing the street.

Yo! I've been waiting to try them, and Smack Burgers is worth the wait! They came from the Bay to LA in perfect style! I got the Baydestrian Burger. 2-6pm is happy hour, so for $9.99 I got the double burger AND fries. (fried in BEEF TALLOW rather than harmful seed oils!) The burger was Shmackin and the seasonings were abundant! The waffle fries were crispy and stayed hot down to the last one. It's on Western Ave. just a block north of the 10fwy. I gotta go back and try the different burgers, and the Strawberry Lemonade was 🔥 and had real strawberries in it! I spilled some of the smack sauce on my shirt and I'm not mad at smelling like a Smack Burger! 🤣 You gotta go get you one! 🍔

It's probably one of the BEST smashed burgers in the city. Made to order fresh, and customizable (how we like it). The hellapeno burger with the hot honey has the perfect amount of heat, onion rings crispy which adds a nice crunch. My bf definitely liked his Bacon Smeeze, bacon cooked crispy, american cheese nice a melted. The waffle fries seasoned & crispy, with the house sauce. It's a 10/10.

I loved it here! Bacon and fries was little over cooked, it was too crispy and not for me. But I really enjoyed the burger and sauces taste. Also I will bring my friends when they got LA from Korea.

I always pass this place. It's super bright and noticeable. My daughters and I just wanted a quick snack for our ride home. We tried the Smack fries. Honestly the best fries I ever tried. My skinny Minnie's (super picky girls)were fighting over them. The staff were super friendly and helpful. I got a separate patty for my dog and she loved it so much she was licking the container. We will definitely be back to try the onion rings and the burgers. Yummmm.

I live on the opposite side of the United States, I have seen the inspirational videos all over the Internet of the owner helping out those in need. I wanted to support the cause, I wanted a baseball cap for me, and my son because he likes your videos too. I called your restaurant phone, granted you're closed ATM. Just to get transferred to India, with someone demanding my name, address, and credit card number....... Congratulations on showing AMAZING people skills, just to piss them away with your " after hour " answering service!!!!!!!

I have nothing negative to say about this place. Everything was very tasty, the service was excellent, and the place was clean. I ordered a smack burger and smack fries and it hit the spot. One of the best burger spots i’ve tried in La can’t lie. This food smacks 😮‍💨👌

Just an awesome spot! Friendly staff, great customer service and delicious/solid burgers.

If you're a smash burger fan, this spot is a must-try! The patties are cooked to perfection with those crispy edges and packed with flavor. I had the Big Smack, and it hit every craving juicy, cheesy, tangy from the pickles, and that house smack sauce ties it all together. The Smack Fries are next-level loaded with grilled onions, cheese, and more of that addictive smack sauce. Definitely worth upgrading your side. Prices are super fair for the quality, and you can tell everything is made fresh. Staff was friendly and quick, and the whole vibe here is casual and welcoming. This place absolutely nails the smash burger game can't wait to come back and try the HellaPeño next time!

This place has some pretty good smash burgers. I tried the Hellapeńo Burger. It was a double with onion rings and jalapeños. It also has hot honey. Which made the burger a bit sweet, but it works. Sweet and saver is a great combo. I also tried their version of " animal style fries" However, this one comes with a burger patty. So if you don't feel like getting too much bread, you could just get the fries. Put the patty on top and you're good to go. It has grilled onions, and their special sauce. You can't go wrong with that. Everything was really tasty. I am definitely coming back. The service was good. Took our order and our food came out pretty quick. There's plenty of seating. You could either sit on a table or like a bar table.

**Review for food truck in Bay Area** The patty is so juicy and delicious! We tried the: Big Smack, Baydestrian, Bacon Smeeze and the loaded fries (totally beats animal fries at In N Out). I can say the best one for me was the Baydestrian, but man the smack sauce and boy, it completed the burger. That sauce was SMACKIN'. The guys helping out in the food truck were friendly, fast, and attentive. This was parked outside of a brewery so what better way to get burgers and beers?! Because it was parked in the (back) parking lot of the brewery, I thought it was a sociable environment welcoming dogs, kids and laughter.

Great service clean place the food is fresh well made and flavorful.I loved the baydestrean burger. Simple and plain but shines in every catogory.

My first time there!!!. The Burgers were tasty. And different. I got the "plane Jane" and the Tallo tallo fries......"The Starter Pack.. Ohoo, I will be back. I took the burger home to enjoy it at the pad. I can't say enough about the burger....and the sauce!!!! If you want to try a different burger come here get a smashburger. I'll be back big time

Wanted a burger and it was solid. I'd rather spend money here than in n out. I only tried the baydestrian and it was really yummy! Maybe a little steep on the price compared to in n out but its okay once in a while. They do have a little parking lot which is nice. High traffic area tho so keep that in mind . I would come again with more people to try more things .

The burgers here are absolutely delicious! I'm obsessed with their fries as well, so good! Everything is well seasoned and cooked perfectly. It service was friendly, they are efficient and hard-working. The prices are worth it as the portions are large, filling and satisfying. The food was made to order quickly and they have plenty of easy parking as well as indoor seating. Great option if you're looking for a delicious burger in the area! Highly recommended!

The happy hour is such a good deal. $10 for any burger and fries. The fries are actually good. Usually waffles fries are trash, but theirs are crispy. The burger is solid, too. But it's a little... dare I say... over seasoned lol. Whatever seasoning blend they use, they were heavy handed with it so I thought it was a bit salty. I tried the smack sauce and ranch. Definitely get the smack sauce (their house made burger sauce). I think the regular prices are kind of high; there are other good smash burger spots with a similar concept and better prices. But I'll likely be back for happy hour again.

Ok today we were hunting for something new. We failed on two other joints but found this little gem in the rough. First off parking is easy. Second go during happy hour. Any burger and waffle fries for $10.00. (2/27/2025) add a coke of course. Total bill for two was like 25... a bargain. The burgers and the fries were served piping HOT. The Smeeze bacon burger is a double (2X 1/3 lbs patties) Cheese onions bacon bbq sauce. Onions yes lots of em. The waffle fries are crispy and tasty. Our food was delivered fairly fast but the extra piping hot fries and burger were worth the extra moment of waiting. Service was good and provided by people happy to be there! Both of us really enjoyed our burgers and fries. We like this joint but think it could use a little more decor to liven it up a bit. I went back again with another person and we had a very good experience. This really is a very accessible (for now) burger in LA's sea of tacos Smack is a breath of fresh air. This is a solid burger joint in Korea town.

Very clean, nice resturant, and friendly customer service. Ordered the Hellapeno Box smash burger - double cheese patty, onion rings, bacon, bbq sauce, grilled onions, and there secret sauce. Very tasty burger smash burger. Love it that comes with waffle fries a little different than all other smash burger spots. For sure I'll come back if in the area.

This place is amazing!! If you like shake shack this is better! If you think in n out is number one this will tie for the number one spot.. hard to explain but yeah you just need to get here and try.. my girlfriend and I loved it!

Smack Burgers opened last year and recently got the chance to try it. The interior decor is pretty cool with the black and yellow theme. They have two entrances leaving both wide open. Problem with this is that, with the recent LA fires, I'm not sure if it was ashes or dust but it was accumulating a bit on the countertops. They have no TV's so you can't watch a game while chowing down. Food: The menu is really simple. Every burger has 2 smash patties. I got the Bacon Smeeze which is like a BBQ Burger. The burger was okay. It lacked BBQ sauce it barely had BBQ sauce on the burger. The waffle fries are seasoned and they tasted good. Very similar to Carl's Jr Crisscut Fries. Overall: Nothing special or nothing stands out to me at Smack Burgers. Kind of disappointed since I was excited to try with my friend who lives down the block. The Bacon Smeeze box combo (fries + soft drink) comes out to $21.35. I'm not quite sure if the meal was worth $21. There are better tasting options out there for even cheaper prices. I didn't see any promos for happy hour so I'm not sure if they still have that promo. Most likely won't come back unless the happy hour exists and I'll try a different burger to give it a second shot.

Unexpectedly came across this place as my fiance and I were driving to a different burger place. We decided to try this spot to try something new and I'm happy we did. The service was very nice and the place is basically a cute little burger joint. We luckily came during happy hour so prices were very good and we spent way less than we expected. The food was also bomb. The trench fries were amazing. They were seasoned perfectly, and the burger sauce they gave me on the side was perfect to dunk them in. The burgers were also delicious. My fiance got they plain Jane and he said the patties were seasoned perfectly. Even though it was out of the way, we definitely will be back.

Good afternoon hope all is well is well. I am Jarvon from Inglewood bad at it again. Today. Came to smack burger to try that Baydestrian, with the waffle fries and strawberry lemonade. The burger was the truth cooked really well lots of flavor. The waffle fries were nice and crunchy, not burnt or salty. Both the burger and fries also tasted good with that smack sauce the truth. Lastly the strawberry lemonade was good wasn't too sweet. This spot is definitely worth the try and it's not that expensive and not a long wait which is good.

My girls and I ordered the snack fries. We were very surprised to find that they were so different but yet so very delicious. We had to go back to go try other things on their menu their waffle fries are perfectly seasoned their onion rings are fire next up the burger itself customer service was excellent every time we've gone.

OMG so good!!! Service is quick and menu simple Burgers are seasoned deliciously and each burger is double patties They have a happy hour time when you can get your meals as combos Casual inside dining with open seating and open floor plan You will definitely not be disappointed! Hi order that Baydestrian and thank me later Provecho/Bon Appetit

The crunch on every bite of this meal was top tier Fast Service too! I will come back

Welcoming from the moment I walked in. Doris was great. She told me all about the "Bougie Burgers!" And t's Happy Hour!!! 2-6pm and all burgers include fries!!!! I got the Hellapeña Burger! I loved it! The waffle fries are outstanding. They are crispy and flavorful. Smack Burger definitely smacks your tastebuds!

You know the food is good when you start feeling sleepy After getting my dog trained me and my man we're hungry and our first option is always a burger. So we wanted to get something closer to home and I was like smack burger, we seen it on tik tok and always drive by so why not give the restaurant a try. My boyfriend went inside and ordered literally didn't even take 20 minutes. Boyfriend walked out with a greasy bag. I was a little hesitant only because I haven't had waffle fries since Chick-fil-A and I stopped eating Chick-fil-A because it was trash so this was the first time me eating waffle fries in a very long time but I was open to it.. anyways got our order and we ate a french fry in the car and it tasted so damn good. Came home immediately started eating burger amazing. I got the bacon sneeze and my bf got burger as well idk the name, but it was fire. Definitely coming back

My son got diarrhea after eating here. It was hot no ac in the facility. He said it was good in the moment but I don't know something in that burger didn't settle with him.

The jalapeño burger actually is good. I would recommend this place. The french fries taste regular, just waffle and I didn't like how you had to pay for the sauce extra. It's not really come on the burger.

Went three or four times now! Had the smack fries and the hellapeno my first time and they exceeded my expectations. Every time i've gone back it's like the first. Love that they even have a happy hour if you're on a budget but want a great meal, the fries are included with the burger of your choice if i'm not mistaken! and it's near my area!? A plus. A special thank you to Ashley and the staff as well who has attended me the times i've gone, with great hospitality and food! Will be back soon.

This place is a hidden gem in tha LAnd. The business is originally from out of the bay but they were nice enough to bring some of that flavor to the south land. They also have a happy hour for $10. Check them out!

Trying out this spot for lunch! It was good. We went for a 24 mile bike ride and we were hangry by the end of it. He wanted a burger, and I wanted to try something new...voila! I got the plain Jane because...that's my style. It was so good. Smash burger style patties. Great bun and cheese. Chris got the big smack and was happy too! We split the seasoned waffle fries! The drinks were...okay. Not a lot of ice, it seemed like maybe something was broken. Price was a okay, maybe a little steep but $18 is pretty typical these days. It was a great experience, just one thing that made it 4 stars...no bathroom to wash our hands before eating. The employee was kind and wet some napkins for us though. We will be back

I usually like to stop at places like this It was really good,food was fairly quick the Fries are amazing and the burger itself has a lot of flavor which is always good in my book better in taste then in and out, the bun was a bit soggy is the only downfall, though staff was nice, even I went it was very hot!

The food was good and the servers were nice and friendly. The only reason why they got a 4 star is because they don't have meals. Its just the burger itself and fries are charged separately, other than that, the burgers are good.

Hungry on the freeway needed a burger went to yelp stopped at snack burger ordered the snack burger it was awesome great service very friendly and one heck of a burger

Great food. Great service super clean. One of the best burgers. Easy parking Had the cheese burger . Amazing

Definitely worth the price made a quick out spot with my son and we where both glad we did food was very tasty and tummy filling make sure you got with time and not in a rush everything tasted and felt like it is made to order...

Burgers are super delicious. Overall a really nice burger joint with good customer service

Food was good and the service was even better. The place is small so I would recommend getting there a little earlier or after the lunch hour. I got the baydestrian with bacon and asked for the sauce on the side, cut in half. The fries needed a little salt but they were still really good. It's called Smack burgers for a reason because it makes you wanna smack someone since it's so good. If it was near me then I'd eat here instead of in-n-out

Decent crowd on a Sunday night after a basketball game at Crypto Arena, on my way home, craving a burger because I didn't want to spend $20 for concession food... didn't expect them to be open, but they were, and they were very welcoming. I ordered the Baydestrian Burger... it was hot and juicy and delicious. It was quite large - 2 hands needed...so I was grateful I didn't get the fries, probably too much food as I was solo...I will return with someone now that I have vetted the place and will want to share this amazing find with friends.

...really good bread, meat and cheese and I even re-warmed it when I got home and I had to add my own tomatoes, onions, and avocado mayonnaise in my own special mustard, dill sauce. The fries were amazing as well.

We stopped at this place to give it a try, but did not realize how expensive they were. After debating we decided to give them a try. One of the reasons is the cashier (girl) was so friendly and helpful explaining the menu to us. After ordering the food it came fairly quick, one of the burgers was ordered with no cheese but they made a mistake. not only did the cook stand behind the mistake and made another burger, but he also gave us the mistake burger at no charge. Hands down they may be a little on the expensive side, but their burgers are so good and worth it. The service was excellent; I crave good service so hands down we will definitely be going back again.

The food and service were great. Rare to come across now in these days. Rogelio the cashier was helpful. Would come back and recommend to friends/families

The food tasted ok. The service was good, staff was quick and professional. Location was cool since it's right off the freeway. Ambiance is ok.

Yelp is asking to consider food, service, and ambiance. The place seemed clean but I can't tell you about the food due to the fact that I wasn't acknowledged and my order wasn't taken. Speaks highly of the service provided at the establishment. Showtimers on instagram don't expect the service you see in the videos.

I came here for their happy hour and got two hellapeño burgers with fries. This whole meal felt like a treat and isn't something that I would normally eat (I admittedly did take a nap after eating my burger and fries). The fries were soooo crispy due to the beef tallow that they're fried in. The fries pair perfectly with their house made Smack sauce. The burger itself was a trip! It had fresh jalapeños, bacon, and onion rings inside. It did take 15~ minutes for my order to be ready so be prepared to possibly wait.

Im a Food fanatic like most and I would say this spot has the best bbq bacon burger in the city and as far as the smack fries, heaven sent n the customer service it's immaculate they arent in a rush to get you outta line and offer dope suggestion for new comers. The music and scenery is nice a chill definitely would drive 45 minutes for this on a date night! 10/10

Ordered the Big Smack with a Snack Box (combo including Beef Tallow Fries and a Drink) and a side of Onion Rings. Their Big Smack burger comes with 2 flattened patties, American cheese, grilled onions, pickles, and smack sauce. This burger was a bit more salty around the edges but had an alright amount of cheese and pickles spread on top. Aside from the flat patties, there is not much that stands out especially at the price offered. The beef tallow fries were cut waffle style and were pleasant to eat, a touch more enjoyable than the burger. The fries also came with a thousand island dressing and there were ranch and barbecue sauce options too. The Onion Rings were chunky onion rings that had a nice crunch to them. This place is located directly on a high traffic street but fortunately there are convenient vehicle entrances to the adequately sized parking lot. The staff were very nice and courteous. There is a roof above the ordering and eating area, there are no seats but there is standing space by the counter tables against the walls facing the street.

The burgers were juicy, fries perfectly crispy, and the sauce tied everything together. Definitely worth coming back for! Service was excellent and fast not very busy nice they had music it's not too boring it started to get busier as I left.

All I can say is DAMN.. This is one of the best smashed burgers I had the Hellapeno is my favorite with the waffle fries full of flavor and the smack sauce is smacking service is amazing and the place is nice and clean.. but $22 for a burger and fries is kinda pricey but it was worth it..i was so hungry I forgot to take a picture maybe next time..lol

Ive been on a burger tear recently, and Smack Burger didn't disappoint. Out of all the smash type burgers I've tried, this one is definitely the best so far. I got the "Baydestrian" Burger, and it was seasoned to perfection. Don't forget to add pickles, because it doesn't come with any. The onion rings and waffles fries are also cooked to perfection. The place is clean, simple menu, and the cashier was super chill.

The burger was good the onion rings were delicious and the fries as well. But my only concerned is that I order from uber eats and I hope they see it. But please, please can you cover the cup lid with something, it didn't have tape or wasn't in a small bag and I have to throw it away. cause you never know. I'm sure that pink lemonade is good. But I couldn't risk it. That's my only concern. But anyways the food was good.

I really wanted to love this place because it was a NorCal based restaurant. But the overall experience was ok. Let's start with what we loved. The space is pretty cool, it looked like a drive up with a covered dining space. The color scheme was black and yellow. They have happy hour everyday from 2-6, $10 for most burger and fries. Very affordable and on par with what a burger should cost (5/5). The food is good (4/5) it would get a higher rating if the burger patties were a little thicker but the ingredients were quality. They serve waffle fries which are crispy. Why I would likely not come back though the wait for food was about 30-45 min. There was a line to order when we arrived there were about 4 groups in-front of us. And we came at 3pm. I think their happy hour starts at 2. I totally respect making food fresh to order but there's 4 burger options. When you're ordering from a window i think the expectation is for the food to come out a bit quicker. I think there is more leniency when it comes from a food truck because cooking space is limited. I think I would be more willing to come back if the wait wasn't so long.

Friendly staff, clean in the inside, and food was fire. Jay took my order, gave some good recs because i was indecisive on what to get. My order came out fast and he hooked me up with a few different sauces since it was my first time trying them. I will def be back!

Harvard Heights, you're blessed with a gem! Smack Burgers brought the HEAT! First-time visit, and I'm hooked on the Bacon Smeeze - juicy patties, crispy bacon, melted cheese, and BBQ sauce symphony! But hold up, free waffle fries during Happy Hour (2-6pm)?! Yes, lawd! Co-worker said buns were too soft? More like, perfectly toasted clouds! Vibe? Electric. Service? Fire. Don't sleep, LA! Smack Burgers is the move. *Happy Hour Hack:* 2-6pm, weekdays. *Flavor MVP:* Bacon Smeeze + Waffle Fries *Return Alert:* ASAP #SmackBurgers #BaconSmeeze #HappyHour #UrbanYum #FoodComa #YelpReview #FoodieFind #MustTry #LosAngelesEats #HarvardHeights #BurgerLove #FlavaTown

Brenda and staff was very friendly and informative about the happy hour specials and menu. Clean/simple inside. Fries are amazing but need salt. Sauces are good. Everything needed salt. But not greasy. Onions on patty need to be cooked more, super stringy and long. Presented well.
