Smashed burgers, house buns, "government cheese," and themed fries
"USBS's housemade potato bun is so soft that your fingers leave little imprints like a memory foam mattress. The smashed and seared patties are covered in a runny cheese sauce that sinks into all the burger’s little cracks and charred bits. It's a classic smashburger with just enough unique elements to make it taste like a one-of-a-kind creation. Add to that the pun-loving team who run this food hall stand like the Bob's Burgers superfans they are, and this place always puts us in a good mood." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino
"Bigger isn’t always better in a burger, but the double “2-Day” option at USBS Burger is an exception. It is served on a potato bun and comes oozing with melted “Government Cheese,” which is a mix of cheddar and fontina, plus a mayonnaise-based “priority sauce” with mustard and onion that elevates the flavor. Pair it with a side of its “Caribbean Tariff” fries tossed in jerk spice and served with spicy mustard. Best for: No-nonsense, smashed burger inside the Citadel" - Stacy Moya
"This vendor inside The Citadel specializes in burgers, but their fried chicken sandwich is absolutely worth a try. The “Carrier Pigeon” is made from ground chicken and formed into an aesthetically pleasing little round patty. The breading is thin but crispy, and there’s a crunchy cabbage situation on top that we approve of." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino
"The burgers from USBS are one of our favorites in the city. A big reason for this is their exquisite, spongy housemade buns, which absorb the cheese sauce so, when you take a bite, it almost eats like a cream-filled donut. The only reason they’re not higher in this ranking is due to inconsistent smashing. We’ve had versions with patties that are paper-thin, and we’ve had versions that don’t look like a smashburger much at all. This might have something to do with a delivery error (that’s a mail joke). But even on their least-smashed days, this is still one of Miami’s best burgers." - mariana trabanino, virginia otazo, ryan pfeffer
"USBS burgers are simple yet well-executed and the “two-day” option comes in a double patty, spiked with “Priority” sauce, a mayonnaise-based mix with mustard and onions. Cheddar and fontina cheese come together to create the melted gooey “Government” cheese inside the burger. Pro tip: order with a side of “insurance and tariffs” in the from of French fries and other sides." - Juliana Accioly
