I've heard all they hype about Smashburger and had to see what it was about. I came here on Fri eve with my son who LOVES burgers, generally speaking "it's just ok". I thought they would be thinner patties since it's called smashburger, but they are regular hamburger patties. I had to settle for the single burger (I wanted the kids burger) with smash tots and my son had the double bacon burger and large fries. You order at the counter and your food is brought to your table. Ordering easy, but the fact that they suggest tip for counter service doesn't align and you tip before you get your food. Regardless we tipped not knowing if service or food was to our liking.
I don't like big burgers and usually order kids burgers. I asked if they were the same but just smaller. She said they are the same, but if you order kids burger you can't customize, it will be just the bun and the burger and you can't add anything...lettuce, onion, pickle or whatever they have available for all other burgers. The food came out within 10-15 minutes, but mine came before my sons, so basically I was eating while he's waiting for his food. The burger was good but not exceptional based on the price point. The tots were nice and crispy but way too greasy (see pics) and I had to stop eating them, knowing I was consuming all that grease made me queazy.
My son gave his burger 2.5 out of 5. We did notice our burgers were not cooked the same. His was made well done, mine not so much. But they also don't ask how you want your burger cooked so we thought they would be the same. Based on this visit, I don't think we would come again. There are so many other good burger places. Poor value, too expensive for what you get.
