What Nicole Carlson doesn't like about Smashburger:
The best time of day to get food is dayshift. The food is always freshest tastiest in the early hours. By the end of the day The food has the charred flavor from the grill a little too much. Food is oily but we like it that way, you can't get this type of food many places anymore, super greasy, super yummy. Good hangover food. My favorite is the Brussel Sprouts with the Truffle Mushroom Burger. Nom nom nom View all feedback. What User likes about Smashburger:
Love all the dairy-free and vegan options! The food was good, but apparently they don't serve any shakes after 930PM. I just wish they had that posted somewhere before I drove across town to get a dairy-free shake. Otherwise fast and good! View all feedback.

As burger places go, it wasn't the worst or the best. The food was decent.

We had an amazing experience at Smashburger and highly recommend it to anyone. It is worth the money and you won't be disappointed.

Fresh fries, accurate order, good food and friendly staff.

For those hungry for a hearty meal, this restaurant shines during the day, offering the freshest and tastiest dishes. Diners rave about its greasy yet delightful options, particularly the Brussels Sprouts and Truffle Mushroom Burger, perfect for satisfying post-hangover cravings. However, inconsistencies in promotional offers and a lack of clear communication about menu items can detract from the experience. While the food remains a highlight—especially the burgers and fries—some guests express concerns over pricing and the restaurant's decor. Overall, it’s a worthwhile stop for burger enthusiasts, despite some room for improvement in service and ambiance.

The walk up and order situation is basic feeling for fast food but this one step above fast food. We ordered the classic cheeseburgers, one a single and one...
