SmashGrillen — Restaurant in Göteborgs Stad

Good hamburgers are always appreciated so watch out for this contender!

I've passed this place multiple times before it was SmashGrillen and I've always felt there's more potential to a place like this. Things have changed. I passed by yesterday and to my surprise this new place had finally opened. I would call this place "gatukök deluxe". They have all the classics - hot dogs, falafel, kebab, but what stands out to me is their burgers.

The chef was welcoming, kind and took his time to answer all my questions. I felt bold and brave today as I ordered a "Sweet Smash" with double patties, cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomato, coleslaw and mango sauce. Many things could go wrong with this ingredients combo, but nothing did. The meat was tasty and could be distinguished from the rest of the burger which is a huge plus. The coleslaw was fresh and the mango dressing added sweetness without dominating. My saliva was flooding like Göta Älv on a rainy day and the burger left me wanting to revisit. The fries were crispy, hot and still tasted potatoes (🙏🏽).

My lady had a Classic Smash and was amazed how great it tasted without cheese. She's picky, so I interpreted this as a 5/5.

All in all, this place is GREAT and there are many options if you're not a hamburger fan as I am, including vegan options. The only minus is that the place isn't big, but I'm ok with that.

Pay SmashGrillen a visit and...

First of all, Rachel who was working at the time was super friendly and pleasant to talk to. I ordered a Smash It burger with fries and a garlic dip. The fries were excellent, crispy and tasty and the garlic dip was delicious! They don't hold back on the garlic in the sauce, the way it's supposed to be :D The burger was nice, felt very fresh. The meat could've had more taste to it but apparently they are supposed to change it or add more spices. I will definitely...

Really crispy fries, the meat and the spicy sauce makes the burger stand out against the competition. Friendly staff and an easily accessible location. Right next to the Masthuggstorget station. This is a perfect place to pick up your burger, but you can also eat there. A small but versatile menu, that offers something for everyone. They also offer vegan friendly dishes. Make sure to...
