Smashburger

Every time I visit Denver I stop by (the one in Los Angeles is too far a hike and this one is a hop, skip, and a jump from my aunt's house). Best fast food (that doesn't taste like fast food to me) burger in town. Staff is nice, and the district manager (who I met my last time in Denver and got to talking to) was awesome. Even bought me my next lunch before I went back home. Only thing I wish they had (unless they do?) is sourdough bread like Freddy's, buttered to perfection on both sides. Yum!!But the place is clean. Food is always fresh and great. Plenty of parking. And just good quality. So stop on by! And I didn't used to really leave reviews, but I started realizing that reviews started affecting places I'd go eat (even though I've realized people are a little pickier than I am and a little harsher than I am in their reviews as well) and so I started wanting to make sure my experiences are recorded for others. So you can't go wrong with Smashburger, at least this location (though the location in Manhattan Beach, CA, somewhat close to where I live is also great). I even told the manager at the California location that I loved their burgers more than In n Out (though he didn't agree lol).

Made a mistake coming here at 2:30 on a Saturday afternoon. It suddenly got crowded and the one person in the front didn't ask for help, so my food has been sitting under the warmer tor ten minutes.I stand corrected, that was not my food sitting. 3 people who came in after me got their food first. I finally spoke to the front person and followed him to the food counter. He presented my food and i asked for it to go as i needed to get back to work. He gave the food back to the cooks and went to serve others. My sandwich gets wrapped and sits on the counter. Guy cones back and i beg him to just put it all im a bag, i dont care about containers and im going to be late. He goes back into the kitchen then comes back and tells me they have to make new tator tots. Ate you kidding me?! All i ordered was an all american smashburger w jalapenos and plain tator tots. And i didn't even get the tots. Had to eat my butger while speeding back to work. A 30 min wait wasted.

I ordered two burgers (a single and a double), and fries to go. Both burgers were very good. Not at all greasy and very well seasoned. Mine came as I asked (no ketchup or mustard). The sign of an attentive restaurant is not screwing up the little details like that. Burgers are made to order, which is a nice change from a lot of the fast food places.

My first visit was so nice. Second was very disappointing. My rosemary garlic wings were plain. I didn't find out until I got home. Loved my smashed tots until I got to the last few and found they were sitting in a puddle of oil.

Dirty floors, walls, tables & window coverings. Staff looks leaderless and unhappy to be here. Kitchen music is louder than house music. This place needs a reboot. I won't be back for a while of at all.AND you ask for a tip at time of order!?No thanks. Update....i returned my burger as it was undercooked/raw.

11/21/23 ordered chicken wings. They were RAW! Raw!I also ordered grilled chicken sandwich, it looked pink to me. I did report it to store and crop office. Never heard from anyone.

Great food, good price, fast as lighting. Why go to McDonald's when you can get a Smash burger fo the same price? Don't. This location has a cook that understands cooking is an art, and you can taste the effort. Amazing job!

Just what you want a Smashburger to be: super simple & easy to order. Not too busy & the food was made to order with an updated menu.

Celebrated my 70th Birthday with a friend at Smashburger. Delicious salad full of greens, cheese, avocado and added crispy chicken. My birthday reward was Chocolate Shake and made the day. Super clean and easy to order, brought to the table!

Very poor service and the food is stone cold and not editable. I would give this restaurant a minus star if it were possible.
