Initial Visit Service was a 3 star (read below for details). Their food is generally 5 stars. The buns were super soft yet still held everything inside. Their smashed patties were moist and easy to bite into. The flavorings came together nicely. My favorite was the spicy guacamole burger priced at 6.49 5 star We also tried the Avocado melt with bison patty priced at 5.49 with 3 dollar add on for bison patty. This was a 4.5 star for me The Kitchen sink was another five star priced at 6.49. The sides we tried was the sriracha slaw at 1.99. 4 star The flavors were ok for me, but I am not a huge fan of sriracha. It was a 5 star for my friend who loves it. Garlic parm truffle fries at 3.49 was a 5 star. They have a lot of parm. My friends complaint was that it was finely grated parm and not the shredded parm. I did not have an issue. We recommend adding honey mustard sauce (it was the only one we had for 25 cents) On to the service... The staff seemed not knowledeable about the point of sale system, requiring a manager to step in. I never received cutlery for my food. My friend did. Which is an inconsistency issue. I saw the person walking around to 2 other tables before finally coming to me and handing me the food. They have numbers that you put in the paper tower holders I thought to make it easier, but my food was getting cold as the server couldn't figure out where to bring the food. He overlooked my number the first time and went to other tables first. I was pretty sure it was mine (and yes it was) When I was receiving my food, they asked me if I wanted ketchup. I said yes. They never came back to give it to me. I will give them props that their manager came by. He asked how everything was. My mouth was full (back was to them when they came by) and could not respond, my friends said it was fine, so I didn't get a chance to say anything to them. My friends food had arrived without incident. but we were on separate tickets.

WHAT I ORDERED Mushroom Swiss Burger (Garlic Aioli, Lettuce, Tomato, Onion, Sautéed Mushrooms, Swiss Cheese) with a side order of Garlic Parm Truffle Fries. The burger was loaded with toppings which gave it a nice full look. The burger paddy had good flavor and the bun was nice and fluffy. Overall the burger was tasty and greasy. The fries were fresh-cut and loaded with Parmesan cheese. My honest opinion here is that they were extremely underwhelming. These fries were soft/soggy and I didn’t have any hint of truffle oil. I spoke to a few people and apparently their fries are always this way. MENU Smitty’s has a large selection of burger options and you can choose Turkey or Bison (+$2) if you don’t want a traditional beef paddy. There are also a few sandwiches, melts, salads, and Tacos. For the menu visit eatatthegarage.com VISITING CONDITIONS I came here around 7pm on a Saturday. The place was packed, but since you order at the counter I got my order in right as I arrived. ESTABLISHMENT Smitty’s is a burger joint with a full bar and TVs all over the place. The vibe and decor mimics the classic American oldies/garage. STAFF Since you order at the counter there wasn’t much of a waiting staff working here. I sat at the bar and was attended to right away. The bartender were friendly and attentive the entire time I was there. PRICING The burgers are around $5-8 and you’ll have to order sides separately which are $2-5. Drinks are $3-6. Their Happy Hours are Mon-Fri 11am - 6pm and Sat-Sun 3pm-6pm. LOCATION 7610 Dodge Street Omaha, NE 68114 If you like a classic greasy burger and an American oldies atmosphere can definitely MARK THIS PLACE DOWN as a must try!

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!! Like I can honestly write a whole book about about the experience and it still wouldn't do any justice as to how delicious this place is. But I'll let the pics and few lines I provide try and give you a little taste of my experience. The service was friendly and speedy to begin with. As soon as we walked in, we had some questions and they where answered promptly and without attitude 🤍. Ordering was super easy and once seated (there where a handful of people and everyone had enough space ) ordering our drinks was a blast and the fact that you get all the Soda your heart desires is a double win for us. The apps and burgers came out within a hard to beat time-frame. Never had I ever seen such speedy service not to mention the portion sizes. When my burger got to the table I literally said "Holy S%$+" because of how huge the burger was. Not to mention they give you a nice portion of fries to go with every bite. The salsa and chips are to die for and the alcohol beverages taste just as such. No watered down s%$+ here 😁😁😁. Overall an amazing first time and will definitely be back. Thank you for the hospitality 🤍

This place is by far the best burger in the metro area! Food is served to order hot and fresh, burgers are juicy and tasty! So delicious! They have a full service bar along with coke products and unsweet and proper Sweet Tea (makes us southerners swoon in delight!) Fun vibes, and a great atmosphere! This place is what every other burger joint wants to be but falls short of. The staff is extremely helpful! They are kind and helpful to a fault! (I accidentally left my debit card at the counter and they brought it back to me right away and where very accommodating with our menu questions). They even had gluten free buns for my MIL They have clean bathrooms (even the men's room) and even took requests for the television for my kids (absolutely kid friendly, at least during the day). The manager was about the dining are checking to ensure the customers are enjoying themselves which is great to see they take an interest in the customers! Prices are more family friendly than any place around (they have a great kids menu BTW)! This is now my go to burger place in the Omaha area!
