Why haven't I been here sooner?!?…read more Smash'd Burger has been on my list to try for a while now and I finally got a chance to try it out. Popped over to Irvington for lunch. We ordered the Farmhouse burger and the OG Smash burger. I asked for waffle fries but she said they didn't have them anymore! (Insert crying face emoji). So we settled for the thick cut seasoned fries instead. Parking was a little tricky as it usually is if you come to Irvington. There is street parking right in front of the restaurant or a small little lot behind. The food came out very quickly. We sat outside and it was perfect! The food was hot and delicious. The burger was flavorful and filling. The fries were excellent. I loved the seasoning and crispiness. I would definitely recommend checking this place out if you're in the mood for a good smash burger and fries!

The only flavor came from the sauce. I got the midway and it was not much better. And the sweet spread was too much and took over the flavor of the burger. The star of the meal were the fries. They were cooked to perfection and well seasoned. Super let down coming here.

Vegan friendly which is great for a burger place. You can come here and pig out while bringing someone who doesn't enjoy the slaughter - a big plus for extended family outings. A couple of other pros are there is a whole freaking parking lot which is unusual but awesome. The full bar has plenty of options including great craft beer. Last but not least the cheese curds are the best in Indy that I'm aware of. I've had a couple of their burgers so far and I don't think you can go wrong with them. The Motörhead is basically a Greek style burger which I found to be exceptional. Burgers are cooked to how you like it so execution is also phenomenal. The Neurosis is your Swiss and mushroom style burger, also great. While it's tempting to go off of the name when ordering I would try to make sure the palette matches your tastes - there's way too many options. Big portions so plan to carry around a to go box after.

It fits right in with the Fountain Square neighborhood! This burger had a lot going on. Chicken, waffles, bacon and a sweet syrup making it taste like something you'd want to eat for breakfast. Everything worked, except the actual burger. And since that was supposed to be the star here, I knocked it a little for not meeting burger expectations. Unfortunately the burger was not seasoned at all. You can probably tell just by looking at it that it was also pretty dry. All the other elements were holding this together and the burger itself got lost because of the lack of seasoning and flavor. No complaints with service or presentation! Just needs improvement on the actual burger, at least with this one anyway.

Peanut butter and strawberry compote on a burger doesn't sound like it would taste good but everything complimented the burger perfectly. The patty alone was cooked perfectly and juicy.

Definitely had to add on the truffle Parmesan fries which were good too, they had the perfect crunch and seasoning level even after a 15 minute car ride home.

Brussels were over sauced but well cooked. Our beers were basically room temp unfortunately. Not sure if there was something wrong with their kegs as it was a really hot day. Vibes were not there. It has potential but it was basically dead in there, maybe 5-6 other tables seated. As for the service, unfortunately it was not good. They had one person bartending, serving, and managing the whole place (~6-8 tables while we were there) Naturally, it took a while for them to take our orders, for our food to come, and for the check to come/be paid. They were also kind of scatter brained and mixed up a part of our order, we just went with it as we didn't want to wait longer. One couple sat down at the bar, waited around for several minutes and left the restaurant before anyone stopped to get them drinks. Just not worth coming back to again when there's so many other places to go. Maybe would order a burger for pickup/to-go as it was quite good.

We complimented it, asked where they found it, and before we knew it, we were chatting with a wonderful couple who had traveled all the way from overseas just to watch Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever play that night. Moments like that are one of the reasons I love Indianapolis on game days. The patio was the perfect place to soak it all in. Fever fans filled the sidewalks, kids proudly carried homemade signs, and there was an excitement in the air that only comes from a city rallying behind its team. We could have people-watched for hours. Our waitress was exactly what every server should strive to be. Friendly, relaxed, and genuinely fun to talk to, she somehow mastered the art of appearing right before we found ourselves looking around for her. We never felt rushed, but we also never waited for anything. The food held up its end of the bargain too. The fried mozzarella disappeared embarrassingly fast and earned a solid 9.3 on my unofficial stretch meter. Crispy on the outside, perfectly gooey inside, with a marinara sauce that was every bit as good as the cheese itself. The chef salad was fresh, generously loaded with toppings, and easily big enough for a meal. I honestly couldn't tell you what beer I ordered... Because what I remember most is the experience. Sharing appetizers on a sunny patio, meeting fellow basketball fans from halfway around the world, and watching Indianapolis come alive before tipoff. It reminded me that sports have a funny way of turning complete strangers into friends. We'll absolutely be back the next time we're headed to Gainbridge.

However, you'd be remiss if you didn't make a stop in at some point. They primarily have table service but also a small bar "inside" - when the weather is nice, they open up the garage doors to make the entire establishment be outdoors. The staff that we encountered were all very friendly. Food is fantastic here, we ordered from the Devour menu back in August and got the burger and pulled pork sandwich with fries. They bring your food out on a giant sheet of butcher paper, so you're more than welcome to make a mess at the table! Everything was scrumptious, and the fries home as leftovers are as delicious as when you get them fresh. Perhaps that's why they're called the Best Fries in the World! I'm sure if a good sports game is on TV, you'll find me here soon enough!

I went with a Malibu and ginger ale, and it was served in this cute glass, I loved it! We were all so hungry, so we started out with a large order of fries, and they are a standout. They disappeared fast, came served on paper, and were crispy, hot, and delicious. We ordered the 2 10-piece wings (the biggest order available), including one batch cooked extra crispy. The wings were good, and I especially enjoyed the Fat Dan's hot BBQ sauce over the regular BBQ. I really liked the extra crispy wings. My boys also wanted burgers. One ordered the Wake N Bake Burger and the other got the Fat Dan's Burger. Both looked tasty, and neither of them complained. The ambiance strikes a nice balance between sports bar and family friendly restaurant. There is seating both inside and outside, and when the weather is nice, they open the large doors to create an open-air feel. That's where we sat, and I enjoyed it. Service was quick and efficient, which was much appreciated since my family arrived hungry. This is a solid spot for burgers, wings, and fries.

One word: GREASSSSSY Don't go in with high expectations. I've heard of Five Guys for the longest time so my standards for the place was unreasonably high. This review's not based on my original expectation though, so it's an unbiased review. (: For a fast food joint, the burger's alright. I order a cheeseburger and by the time I arrived back at work, the grease had eaten through paper sack. However, they're very generous with their toppings, and you can freely customize the burger to your own liking. Their fries definitely make up for the burger--the fries are fresh cut, perfectly seasoned, and crispy, yet fluffy on the inside. :3 In my opinion, there's quite a few other better burger places in this area, including at least one 'fast food' type which is a much better value & flavour without the pretentiousness. read more

I LOVE this place. They're a little pricey, but the food is fabulous so it's worth it. The cook everything to order, so if I know I want to stop there for a burger, I call a head and it's ready to go when I get there. Their fries are cut in the shop and are fresh as can be. Their burgers are huge and I like the varitey of condements to add to my burger. My family and I frequent the shop. We love it and we would reccomend it to anyone who wants a burger but not the typical fast-food burger. read more

But feel free to get as weird with it as you want. They really bring the idea of "Have It Your Way" to life. The Carmel location isn't quite up to the Downtown Indy level. The burgers were basically the same, but not quite as flavorfully popping. The service, cleanliness, etc., was all perfectly fine taken on its own merits. But compared to Downtown Punch Burger, doesn't quite measure up. I'd definitely say give them a try if you're in Carmel and looking for a good burger.
