Smashburger — Restaurant in Town of Greenburgh

Smashburger is a relatively small burger chain with approximately 200 units in the United States and 300 worldwide. Despite the fierce competition in the burger industry, their unique cooking method and delicious burgers set them apart. I sincerely hope they succeed and grow in this crowded fast-food space. Smashburger’s claim to fame is their innovative cooking method—they smash the burgers on a blazing hot grill. This technique results in a thinner, juicier hamburger with a crispy outside texture and reduced cooking time. They use only fresh, never frozen beef, which significantly enhances the flavor profile. Our party particularly enjoyed the flavored Smash Tots and found the regular French fries to be excellent as well. Among our favorites were the BBQ Bacon, Truffle Mushroom, and Double Bacon Smashburgers. On the downside, the Spicy Jalapeño Burger received a thumbs-down for its taste. The restaurant is well-lit and offers adequate seating. It generally appeared very clean, with the exception of the restroom, which needed attention due to an overflowing trash can. The staff was friendly, but the service time was disappointing. Although the restaurant wasn’t very crowded, a second order of burgers took over 15 minutes after we had finished our first batch. In terms of pricing, Smashburger aligns with other specialty burger fast food joints, which means the prices are on the higher side. Despite some minor issues, our party thoroughly enjoyed the food. Smashburger's unique method of preparing their burgers and the quality of the ingredients result in a very tasty burger. I will definitely be a repeat customer. This restaurant merits a five star rating for food quality but could use some improvement on the items...

As I placed my order I went to pay with a gift card. The terminal seem to be having problems reading the magnetic stripe and the cashier got visibly upset with me that I was calling her an inconvenience. She called the manager out who transferred the transaction to a different terminal and got the gift card to go through. All the while, align have built up behind me and another associate was just standing there not doing anything productive. The cashier asked him to assist but he laughed her off. When I received my order, I was missing french fries and the burger that I had asked to be wrapped so I can take it to go was not. I approached the counter and asked the male employee if I was going to be getting fries to which he responded by rolling his eyes and saying to the manager who is working behind on the grill that I needed fries. When the fries came out he took the tray and dropped it in front of me, saying "here are your fries." I then asked for a to go box for my burger that I wasn't going to eat and was ignored. I then asked for the employee's name but he laughed at me and refused to provide it. At this point, the cashier was also laughing. I do not see what was so funny. I then asked the manager for the employee's name and she asked him to give it to me but he laughed and still refused. At this point, I took my fries back to my table packed everything up and left. This behavior is completely unacceptable my simply trying to get my food should not be a major inconvenience to the employees...

If you’re craving a burger that goes beyond the ordinary, Smashburgers is where your taste buds need to be. This place doesn’t just serve burgers—they craft them with an edge. From the first step inside, the aroma of sizzling beef and toasted buns hits you like a delicious wave of nostalgia and indulgence.

The menu is stacked with tempting options, but let’s talk about the real showstopper: the Truffle Mushroom Swiss Burger. It’s a decadent masterpiece that stands in a league of its own. The savory richness of the truffle aioli mingles with perfectly sautéed mushrooms and melty Swiss cheese, all layered over a juicy, seared-to-perfection beef patty. Each bite is a harmonious blend of umami and indulgence, without overpowering the simple pleasure of a great burger. It’s a bold flavor twist that feels luxurious without being pretentious.

But the experience doesn’t stop there. The buns are soft yet sturdy, toasted just enough to hold everything together without falling apart. The fries—crisp, golden, and seasoned right—make a great partner in crime for any burger on the menu.

Service is quick, the vibe is relaxed, and whether you’re grabbing a quick lunch or settling in for a casual dinner, Smashburgers hits the sweet spot between fast and flavorful.

If you haven’t tried the Truffle Burger yet, you’re missing out on a rich, mouthwatering journey that elevates the classic burger to something truly memorable. Smashburgers isn’t just a stop—it’s a destination for serious burger...
