    Customer service was great. The burgers were pretty good just needed salt. Other than that I would still recommend this place.

    Great food and service. Yes, it is a little on the pricey side but it's worth it. My family and I will be back!

    Bomb burgers like a high quality in-n-out . But with higher quality tender meat and the fries are making in-n-outs look lil league.

    It's overpriced for just a little bit of food PS $38 for two combos and they will forget your fries too. Don't recommend to anybody.

    My first smash burger was a disappointment! It was smashed to thin! That now made it to dry! I won't order that again

    THANKS PAPA! If you're into old-fashioned burger joints with a modern twist, you'll love this smash…read moreburger spot. All burgers are made with wagyu and are absolutely perfect. The menu is very basic, also reminiscent of classic burger joints. You can get a classic burger, bacon burger, and one other burger (I forgot the last one). You can order up to four patties if you're extra adventurous. The most expensive burger with four patties is about $20. Fries are crispy shoestring style and pair well with the burgers. I wouldn't say the "Papa Sauce" is anything crazy, it's essentially thousand-island sauce. Papa Smash's mascot is an instant icon, he's a mix of Bob's Big Boy & Ness from Earthbound. Love the retro style of the indoor seating area, There's plenty of tables and a fountain for drink refills. The joint is super clean, I'd gladly visit with a little group again. Parking is shared with next door gas station and car wash, so it's slightly limited. Note: This is NOT gas station food, it's solely on its own and a separate business. The wagyu is incredible, you'd make a mistake passing this up.

    Absolute Perfection Every Single Time! Check out the…read morepictures, this is exactly what a burger should look like. It is perfectly stacked, perfectly cooked, and just look at those double classic smashburgers and fries! We literally drive past 10 other burger places just to come here every single time, and it is worth it every day of the week. If you want the absolute best quality at a really competitive price, Papa Smash is a total blessing. On top of the incredible food, the service is perfect. The place is always spotless, it seriously looks like they just opened for the very first time, even though they've already been here for a couple of years. Excellent job on the service. Excellent job on the food. Excellent job on absolutely everything. To the whole team: please keep doing exactly what you're doing! We will be back again and again.

    I've been in Perris about 15 years and have passed the spot a ton of times. Just figured it was…read moreanother mediocre burger spot which the city of perris barely even has as it is. Finally tried them yesterday and now know that it's officially the best burger spot out here. Got a chili cheese bacon burger and they didn't drown it in chili but the flavor was still great, the bacon was crispy, the texture was perfect. Reminded me of a good Hood LA Burger from childhood. Service was fast. I went through the drive-thru. Prices were reasonable. I can't believe I'm just finding out about this greatness

    Stopped here on my way home. Always nice to see one of these hole-in-the-wall type burger joints…read more Food is usually fresh and portions that fill you up. That was essentially the case here. I was here with a friend and I ordered the chile relleno plate, he got a couple dishes. It wasn't my favorite chile relleno. There was nothing wrong with it, I've just had better. The salsa...phew. If you like heat, they got it here. I cleaned my plate, but I think that was more due to my appetite than the food. Nothing about the taste stays with me that would compel me to stop by again. There were no enticing vegan options, not even a veggie burger. Plenty seating, the place was empty when we walked in, tho a busy drive-thru. Nice clean restrooms, clean restaurant overall. Also, we were helped right away so the service is on point
