The place is narrow (I missed it both times I came here) but it's got a look and vibe happening... music cranking, album covers splattered all over the place. The menu is narrow (burgers and chicken and shakes) and they know what the heck they're doing... chicken is juicy and delicious, burgers are smashed and crispy and packed with flavor. (The shakes look amazing, but that's not my thing.) The staff - could not be any cooler. Pricing and portions - all more than fair. Parking - not that fair. If they were a wee bit closer to where I live I'm sure we'd frequent them way more often. (Just don't rat me out to my cardiologist who would not approve, I'm sure.)

Ordered delivery via GrubHub one Friday afternoon. We had the Jam Burger (house-made smoked bacon…read morejam spread, caramelized onions , and jalapeño cheese popper) and the Bodega Burger (fried egg, sweet plantain , melted Jack Cheese, house-made garlic sauce, and crunchy red cabbage). The burgers were good but kind of pricey for what it was, especially since they were kind of small. It came out to almost $25 for the two burgers, and that doesn't even include fries. But it could also be because prices are usually jacked up in delivery apps. If that is the case, I wouldn't mind going in person and trying another burger hot off the grill, next time with some fries.

Cooked perfectly and it was like the meat melted right into your mouth after every bite. Very affordable too compared to other places especially nowadays. Paid $8.50 for bacon cheeseburger and obviously regular cheeseburger is even less. Like others said hole in the wall kinda place off the highway so don't let that deceive u. Not that much seating during cold weather but someone got up as soon as we got there and we had a little table. Can get it to-go too obviously. Not that much space if u eat inside but not a big deal for me in the grand scheme.

TLDR: a great smash burger spot located pretty close to downtown East Rutherford. Definitely…read morerecommend. This was a highly recommended spot I received so I gave it a try. Huge fan of burgers/smashburgers so was extremely excited to try. Staff was friendly, establishment was clean and bright and the service was quick Hausburger: nice soft bun paired with a flavorful patty that was not overwhelmed by their Haus sauce. BigHaus: great burger with generous toppings, all combined really well for the perfect sandwich. Bacon and caramalezied onions were French fries: nice, thick and crispy. Can't complain Onion rings: crispy and fresh but seemed to be overpriced... 6 onion rings for $4.50 seemed to be a bit excessed... almost $1 each

There's a lot of positive hype surrounding Slap Burger. So much so that I was concerned that it…read morecouldn't possibly live up to it. I am happy to say that it did in spades. The burgers are spectacular. Far and away the best "smash" type burgers I have ever had. High quality beef smashed to perfection with just the right amount of caramelization and char. Moist and incredibly flavorful. Served with meted American cheese pickles on a perfectly toasted bun. I chose to go with mac and cheese for my side and it was excellent. Tasted home made. I plan to try the fries next time as they look pretty good as well. The service was on point. I waited about 10 minutes for the prep and it was worth the small wait. The dining area appears to have been inspired by Five Guys. Red, white and black. Almost identical. The prices are very fair. I will definitely be adding Slap Burger into my regular rotation.

I ordered banana pudding. It is too small to be priced at $9 and it has the strangest taste. It's…read morenot sweet at all, almost like they skipped adding sugar. It left my mouth weirdly dry, probably because it doesn't have any pudding, its 95% unsweet whipped cream, maybe 2-3 cookies, and about 3-4 slices of banana. That was strange indeed. I would not recommend getting the banana pudding.
