The burgers and sides were delicious, definitely one of the better fast-casual spots. Unfortunately, the staff seemed unorganized and not very welcoming, which took away from the overall experience. Hopefully, the service improves, because the food is worth coming back for. - Joe Stark

Smashburger Introduce

Smashburger has brought its unique take on the classic American hamburger to the heart of New York City, and the location on 8th Avenue is a perfect example of its fast-casual dining model. This is a place that promises more than just a quick burger; it offers a taste of bold, crave-worthy flavors in a setting that's both casual and efficient. The name "Smashburger" comes from the technique of smashing a ball of 100% Certified Angus Beef® onto a hot, seasoned grill, which creates a flavorful crust and seals in the juices. The result is a thin, juicy patty that serves as the foundation for a wide range of creative and classic burger combinations. Beyond their signature burgers, the menu includes crispy chicken sandwiches, tenders, and a variety of delicious sides, making it a versatile stop for a quick lunch, dinner, or even a late-night bite. This location is designed to cater to the constant flow of people in the area, from tourists to locals and students, providing a consistent and satisfying dining experience.
