Smashburger

It was okay. This was my first time trying Smashburger. I was glad I could get a burger with lettuce as a bun. I was disappointed they couldn’t do onions. Their burger patties are very thin, and I wish I knew that so I could’ve done a double. The burger was good. Nothing super special. It wasn’t as filling as I’d like (I don’t eat a lot either). I got some fries and they were fine. Only had to wait 10 minutes for two burgers and two sides of fries.

Unfortunately, this visit was quite disappointing. The building needs maintenance (front door difficult to open, holes/dents in walls from tables, toilet wouldn’t flush, paper towel machine not functioning.) The food could have been decent enough, but it sure wasn’t. Just for a burger and fries, (no drink) the cost was over $13. That’s fine if it’s good. The top burger bun was nearly refrigerator cold. The meat was warm, however. The fries were room temp and obviously old. Did I talk to someone? No. Service was also lacking. My advice: Not far from this place is a hip, local cafe with about the best burgers in town for almost exactly the same price. Check out The Wolf Cafe and order the Joe burger. (Grass-fed beef, nitrate-free bacon, and cooked to order with air-fried tator tots) That’s what I usually do, but thought I’d give Smashburger a try.

Tried the super hot chicken sandwich. Not bad but I'm going to rank it 3rd after Chick-fil-A and Popeyes. Had an issue with the website not allowing you to use a gift card, so was not happy that I had to drive in. But once I got there the service was great and even though they were behind they got it out fast.
