"B and C Gates Smashburger is essentially the Shake Shack of Colorado—these burgers are reliable for a quick, cheap meal to grab on the way to your gate. You can customize your meal with beef, turkey, or bean patties, but stick with the signature burgers that come loaded with toppings like smoked bacon and brisket or truffle mushrooms. You’ll definitely want some rosemary and garlic fries to nibble on as you scroll on your phone at the gate. " - anne cruz

From bàhn mi turkey burgers to carnitas bathed in green chili, this is where to eat at Denver International Airport.

My burger was phenomenal! I got the double bacon smash with fries and a side of truffle mayo. That truffle mayo add a flavor spike like no other! My fries were just the way I love my fries cooked, too. My waiter was really down to earth and held great conversation. This meal was the perfect ending to my trip. I can't wait to come back and try another burger. If you're in the airport and you have time, I suggest you stop in if you love good burgers. I honestly don't get how this place is rated so low.

They trade quality for speed. Not really a smash burger. Burger was a minimum 10 minutes old when I received it. They clearly made burgers in advance and then put all the burger condiments on the side so they can pump them out quickly. Same thing with fries…not hot but warm. Lettuce tomato onions pickles were fresh and good though.

I read all the recent bad reviews, so I decided to see if it was really that bad. Diet Coke was cold and delicious. Server Jackie was very friendly and attentive. The place was very busy. Ordered food at 12:11pm. On the table by 12:20pm. Smash fries were hot and really good. Swiss Mushroom Burger is wonderful. Wife said Grilled Chicken Sandwich was great.

This SmashBurger location is so, so, so, so bad!!! Take my advice and skip it. Quite possibly the most disappointing food experience I have ever had. I visited the "To Go" area, so I can't comment on the sit-down restaurant experience. The burger cost nearly $15 and was a complete joke. After waiting about 15 minutes, an employee returned from somewhere and fished out a wrapped burger from a bin of burgers that had been just sitting there for who knows how long? When I opened it, I was shocked to see a plain bun with no condiments whatsoever, and a tiny burger about the size of a sliver dollar with cheap American cheese on it. The bun was hard and the entire sandwich was cold. You can see in the picture the bun is 2x the size of the burger. It is smaller than a McDonalds cheapo cheeseburger. I'm not that picky, but I expect a whole lot more than this for $15.00.

Quick service, but not rushed. Grabbed a double smash burger and fries and soft drinks. Two of us shared, for a light lunch. I've tried the smash tots before but I didn't get them this time. Pretty good choice for a casual meal, and they have a big bar as well.

Smashburger, Concourse C at DIA Smashburger at DIA: where the burgers are solid, and the seating is… not. My burger was good—nothing revolutionary, but it hit the spot. The tots were crispy and seasoned just right, though they got a little oily toward the end, like they were trying too hard to remind me they were fried. The wait time was refreshingly short, which is a big win in airport dining. But the seating? It’s like they designed the space with only carry-on-free travelers in mind. Trying to stash my bag while eating felt like playing Jenga with no winning move. All in all, decent food, quick service, but a side of elbow room wouldn’t hurt. Would eat here again—just maybe after stashing my bag somewhere else.

Just wanted an a la carte burger for sustenance but you have to be under 9 or pay for fries too. Really can’t just let someone pay $9 for a subpar cheeseburger, have to charge $5 for fries. We are all just trying to survive our time at the airport. Single patty might as well be nonexistent anyway.. smashed to a crisp with no juices, no flavor at all. Skip it.

This location should close. Expensive. Low quality and long wait times. For $20 you get one hamburger. They shoukd look at their advertised picture. What you get is no where anyway close. . The chain sells gift cards but according to the staff they do not except them. What a joke!!
