I was looking for places to eat near my hotel that were open late and found Sign Smash Burger. It is hard to find parking since the lot is very small. The menu is pretty simple and I went with the signature burger and sign loaded fries. Good lord the burger was delicious, and so were the fries. Their shakes look really good, so I'll have to try one of those when I come back to this spot again. read more

Aesthetically on Yelp, the burger looks delicious! I want every business to thrive at the utmost level. However, my first time trying the signature unfortunately it was soggy and had no crispiness to the cheese or the meat itself. Also, I'll give the sauce 4. The burger basically had no seasoning. :( This is coming from a Caribbean girl! Sorry, didn't take the photo! I wish Sign Smash burger much success! read more

The thing about smash burgers that no one tells you is that it's very easy to get wrong. I remember on a visit to Minneapolis Toby and I stopped at this smash burger place that was apparently highly recommended, but when we tried it all the patties were overdone and had the consistency of brittle. You're supposed to caramelize the patty, not char the everliving S out of it. Needless, I would not recommend that place. Sign, however, I will recommend because that was one tasty burger. The edges had the perfect amount of crisp while the middle was still juicy and tender. The condiments were applied in just the right amounts. The cheese too hit the spot with all the ooey-gooey. I won't say it's up there with Nice Guys in terms of satisfaction, but it was a very competent example of how to do smash burgers correctly. The service was quick in both ordering and getting my meal out. The counter jockey was very helpful in getting my refill and answering questions about the menu. The dining area was a bit small and they only had two tops as far as I could see, but it seemed to be okay in terms of business and turnover. I don't think it was suffering for customers. I would have liked more room between tables but that's a small thing, They also hit my pet peeve of serving everything in bags and to-go containers even when eating there. It kind of ruined the dining experience by not having a proper tray and basket set-up. The fries especially looked wrong in a paper pouch instead of arranged around the double burger. But as it is, it's a good place for a burger. Everything turned out wonderful and I hope next time everything is that much closer to perfection. read more

Sign Smash Burger - His lamest flame will be Too brief and burn too pale Double Cheese Burger Combo from #SignSmashBurger - Burgers Near Me - Orange, California

So good!!! Hot take but this is way better than in n out....sorryyyyy not sorry. The flavor, proportion, the SAUCEEE and amount of options to choose from is just perfect. They have a small but mighty menu. We got the signature burger and the crispy cheese and melted cheese that they do is genius. Sauce is heavenly. Every bite is umami af. Their loaded fries are def a top fave for me too. They have the option to order with self checkout and with the worker. Workers there are friendly and it seems like a small family business because I've seen the same workers on different days now. The only thing I wish they did have is pickled jalapeños! I think that would tie a lot of the flavors together. They don't have public restroom, not really good for large groups, and parking is pretty small. Willl be back! read more

We took advice to come here for a good burger. They did not disappoint. This is a small establishment with really big flavors. It is a small place but very well light and an open view of the kitchen. The menu at current is not very big but what they do make is very good. We ordered the double smash burger, the single smash burger, and a jalapeño burger to go with loaded fries. All were very tasty with right amount of heat from the spicy jalapeños. We will definitely coming back with decent pricing and staying open until 11 on weeknights as a big plus. Keep up the good work. read more

Such a trendy place & decently priced . The food was good felt a little rushed tho. And it kind of shows in the food. My single smash burger comes with jalapeño it's was seasoned really good. I do wish the jalapeños were grilled. They were kind of just thrown in the middle of the burger. My loaded fries weren't bad. I like that the topping weren't really heavy. I do wish that the cheese was put first then the topping . Overall good if you're looking for a quick bite. read more

Did not know this place existed, but so glad our boss brought us and now we have a new place to go to when craving a good smash burger. These burgers are so delicious, juicy and full of flavor! I got mine lettuce-wrapped which they so graciously accommodated for me, and I still loved every bite! The jalapeños were not spicy but add such a good flavor. A must try if you love smash burgers! Next time I'll make sure to include pictures, I just started too quickly and just never got around to it lol, sorry... read more

Parking lot shared with other businesses, parking felt a little bz during the time we went (lunch time Friday) Simple menu: smash burgers, fries, shakes. Clean ambiance, service appropriate. Order through iPad or face to face option. Good burger joint , I wish I ordered the double patty, not just the single. Stop on by, support local :D read more

Wow! Sign Smash Burger made an amazingly crispy burger packed with flavor without being salty! That's a huge thing for me because sometimes smash burgers can get salty with all the cheese and seasonings, but they perfectly executed this. The buns were toasted to perfection (for my preference anyway). We got to try the Signature, Double, and Single burgers, the loaded fries, and a cookies and cream milkshake. The service was also great as the servers knew what to recommend! There's ample seating for a 2 - 4 people. I can tell this is a popular spot as many people were dining in before I got to take this pic with the empty tables! Will be coming back here for the signature burger because that was amazing! read more

The wife and I were craving burgers! The funny thing is that she was craving a juicy patty and we ended up trying smash burgers instead. We figured it was nearby so why not and it looks like it had really good reviews! For face value when we got there, it was pretty packed on Sunday night close to 9. The good thing is that they close at 11. We just decided to order on the tablet and picked out at least three smash burgers and some cheese fries. The bun was really soft, good quality bread but after taking a couple bites, it just didn't give me that wow factor... it was good but it wasn't like great. I felt like it was missing something, but I couldn't tell what it was. I paid for their sign sauce, which was their version of spread/thousand island and again even with the spread I just didn't get that wow factor. The fries were good and crispy that was about it. I understand the hype, but it wasn't for me. My wife kept mentioning she only tasted the cheese and not the meat. Not for everyone it seems. read more

Came here on a quiet Tuesday night and it was pretty empty, so we were helped right away. The menu was very simple, which was nice. Sometimes there is such a thing as too many options. We helped ourselves to our seats after ordering. The restaurant is very bare. Maybe they were going for a minimalist route? It took about 5-7 minutes for my party to get our meal so service was quick and efficient. I got their specialty burger along with fries. The fries were nothing too special. It kind of reminds me of your run-of-the mill French fries that you would find at any fast food establishment. That being said, it was a nice addition to the burger. The Signature Burger was alright. Though I'm not sure if it's a burger that would me want to keep coming back to eat. Once I finished my burger, I still felt hungry. Ionno, maybe I'm just a fat lard. Cheese was nice and crispy, though. Cool late night spot to go with the buddies, though far from the best. read more

Oh my goodness! These are by far my favorite smash burgers, my husband and kiddos agree! Husband and I order their double signature burger which has jalapeños grilled into the cheese and sign loaded fries! Kiddos get a single cheese burger and they almost finish a whole one each mind you my kids are 5,4,2 and 1 years old. They are that good!! And don't forget to grab a shake and soft serve!! Highly recommend!! read more

The food is fresh flavorful and well prepared. Service is friendly and quick. Ambiance is simple window counter and tables utensils and ketchup station. Smash patties are flavorful and crispy with a cheese crust around the edges. Loaded fries are hearty but the only comment is I don't care for that nacho cheese sauce goop, I would have enjoyed just as much without cheese wiz but that's a preference. read more

We came by and sat there to eat. What a big difference that really makes. Taking it home makes everything soggy. I ordered the signature smash. It comes with a double patty with jalapeños, melted crispy cheese, their sauce and pickles. I opted to have the pickles on the side. The burger came out hot. The patty is larger than the bun, so you have go maneuver a little bit to get a good bite. My first bite was a little salty, but then the rest of the burger seemed fine. It was a good blend of flavor. The double patty was perfect and the jalapeños added the right amount of spice. Overall the burger was a good size and the flavor was perfect. read more

Sign Smash Burger - Signature burger - Burgers Near Me - Orange, California

Nice spot for smash burgers, I recommend getting the double or triple! Pairs well with their fries too. Got the cookies and cream shake for dessert. Service was quick and we got our orders pretty quickly. It's a small spot, so only a few seats available, and plaza is small but should be able to find parking. read more

Service was very polite. This establishment took over, imo, a run down Mexican bakery. Sign did a great job of brightening the place up. There is a bit of a sterile feel in here but the food speaks for itself. I got a double burger with lettuce. There are a handful of extra ingredients you can add for free, like lettuce, tomato, raw onion, ketchup and mustard. The burger already comes with smash sauce (like 1000 island), grilled onions and pickles. I wish I could have asked for extra pickles! The the burger tasted so beefy (without tasting like meat, you know what I mean?) and salty. It was really good and I ate the whole thing. The fry on the fries is REALLY GOOD too. Front parking is a nightmare but there is additional parking in the back. They share an separate bathroom outside with the Cali tacos. Anyway, welcome to Orange! read more

Finally got to stop in at Sign and got the double smash. The inside is small with just a few seats. I ordered and it was not a long wait for my burger. The burger was really good but the fry's are just ok. Nothing special. I have to say the burgers here you need to try they are that good. Grilled onions and pickles if you want. The special sauce is good too. Give them a try. read more

I would come back here for the sprite alone. It's so crispy, better than McDonald's, can't believe I said that. But actually! I ordered a double patty with added raw onions, fries and a drink. Burger looked promising but the patty didn't have any seasoning. They have two sauces, the sign sauce and the smash sauce, they taste pretty similar except one has a bit of a kick, I forget which but they'll be sure to help you! If it wasn't for the sauces and ketchup, there wouldn't be much flavor. The fries were really cold and they were kind enough to replace them with fresh ones. They have a great crunch but as they cool they get stale. The shop is really clean like REALLY clean and quiet. They'd right next to Cali Tacos. The staff there are really nice and helpful, there are also so kiosks where you can order on your own. read more

Sign Smash Burger - Double cheeseburger - Burgers Near Me - Orange, California

First visit, I ordered the signature burger meal: 10/10 burger, this is my first time experiencing a cheese pull with my burger?!??! Incredible, the flavor was exactly what I was craving from a smash burger. The fries were perfectly crisp; they may have been starched and fried cause even after sitting here and almost fully cold they still have a crunch! The spot itself is a small fast food spot, about 6 tables and a counter by the window. The wait wasn't long. The service is great, I apologized for asking for a half coke/half coke zero and the server was super sweet about it. I think the signature smash is enough food so I'd share fries if you come with someone. read more

We checked out Sign Burger after seeing it on Instagram, and it definitely lived up to the hype! Parking is a little tight right in front, but you can park one street over where there's plenty more space. The restaurant is small but beautifully designed -- super clean, bright, and modern. My husband asked for no onions on his burger (he's allergic but didn't mention that part), and unfortunately, it still had onions when we got home. We called, and the staff were so accommodating -- they apologized and had a fresh burger ready for us when we came back, plus they threw in some fries, which was really nice. My smash burger was amazing -- crispy patty, soft bun, flavorful sauce, and fresh jalapeños with a nice bite. The fries were crispy and fresh, and the ice cream was creamy and delicious. Prices are super reasonable, too. Overall, great food and great service. Just make sure to mention allergies clearly when ordering. We'll definitely be back! read more

This gem located in a tiny plaza is the star of the show! While parking is somewhat limited, there are handicaps spots and street parking available. When you first walk in you immediately get a warm welcome to the delicious smell of grilled onions and cheese. They have a variety of items in the menu including shakes and freshly made cookies. They have a signature sauce, thousand island, and my not so favorite oily ranch. Only item I was disappointed in. The smash burger cooked to perfection perfectly balanced with crunchy toasty cheese and fresh crunchy pickles is the perfect hangover cure and comfort food! They also did not miss with their crunchy fries crisp and fried to perfection. They have refills on sodas and only have one size cups. Smash burgers will never taste as good as this spot. Good vibes, good food and with even better company. Check them out! But don't get the ranch lol read more

Sign Smash Burger - Signature smash burger, exclude jalapeños. - Burgers Near Me - Orange, California

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I have a new favorite smash burger spot! Sign is located in the plaza with Cali Tacos and Domino's, the lot is small so it can get tricky finding parking during rush hour. The good news is you can do online ordering, so you can get in and out fairly quickly. The shop is brand new and super clean, with some counter and table seating. Staff is nice and work quick to get your order out. I got a single smash, a single smash with ketchup/mustard/tomato/lettuce/onion ("McD's style" as I like to call it), some fries, and a Cookies n Cream shake. Everything was delicious, their single smash was damn near perfect; the patty was cooked to crispy perfection and the sauce and pickles and onion added the perfect flavor. I'd say the single smash as-is was so good, that the McD's style played second fiddle (even though it was also great). Their French fries were also excellent, the best fries I've had at a burger spot in recent memory. The shake came out great too. I think for the price and quality, there isn't anything better than Sign Smash. My only regret is not coming here sooner, but this definitely won't be my last visit. Do yourself a favor and pay this place a visit, you won't regret it! read more

Sign Smash Burger - Really good - Burgers Near Me - Orange, California

Pretty good, not amazing Signature Smash with a single $8 instead of $9 cuz I wanted less red meat lol Overall, it does taste good. I'd come back. The patty doesn't taste as beefy as lunch bang, but if I were to pay $9 for two patties I'd be happy and really full. Custom Signature smashburger $8 4/5 The bun is super soft, reminds me of mcd - I don't think it's a martins potato roll tho? At least not the one that softies has. Even tho there's melted cheese and a cheese skirt, the burger doesn't taste overly cheesy. The jalepeno is a nice touch from keeping it overwhelming, and it also packs some heat. When you bite into the pickle, it amplifies the flavor of the burger. There wasn't an abundance of thousand island sauce either, so that's nice. Fries $4 3/5 Small to decent amount, they completed the meal and were crispy and hot, but in n out tastes better. Vanilla soft serve Not as dense, kinda more melty .. flavor is good tho. Not as vanilla-y as Stricklands, but a nice treat after a heavy ish meal. Service Friendly even in the evening! It's also super cold inside the store, like 68f -70f?? I would have preferred a crispier crusted patty, but overall it tasted yummy and I'd come back cuz there's not too many late night smashburger spots open til 11pm! read more

What we got: Signature Smash- it's their classic but with crispy and melted cheese & their signature sauce. it was really good! it wasn't too filling at all, but was just the right amount of it was flavorful, and all the toppings worked so well together their sauce is delish Sign Loaded Fries- loved these! i usually don't care for fries because they're plain, but these were super flavorful and cheesy, which i loved! * they had shakes on their menu too! i didn't get any this time though. they have a pretty clean, minimalistic vibe to their restaurant, which is cool. they have a decent amount of seating inside. there's also more outside by cali tacos next door. the employees were nice! the service was good. what i LOVED was how they had gloves for you to wear while eating!!! i don't know why more places don't do this. i guess i always thought it was a personal issue, like not liking when my hands get messy. this came in clutch though, i used the gloves when i ate LOL overall, i would recommend! it's a nice casual dinner spot. read more

Sign Smash Burger - signature smash burgers , sign loaded fries close - Burgers Near Me - Orange, California

food was super delicious. i opted for the signature and was able to sub American cheese for double crispy cheese. my husband got a single with fries and a drink. i had to snag some of his fries, which were perfectly crisp and salted. as a former vegetarian, meat can sometimes and suddenly become challenging for me to eat... but not this time, the grind and quality was perfect! absolutely loved that jalapeño slices are available on the signature or to add on as a huge lover of some extra spice. the hospitality was EXCELLENT. the best customer service I've had in a long long time. this establishment is clean, welcoming, and enjoyable to eat at. they even have gloves/wipes if you want to enjoy your burger mess free. this will definitely be our smash burger spot from now on! read more

IF U LIKE SMASH BURGERS: The food was good as any smash burger. Comparable to easy street. As good as it gets. But again there's only so much you can do to make a better smash burger. Key differences is the trade off of a greasier but crispier bun, versus this soft and buttery bun, no crunch but much less greasey as a whole. Doesn't feel greasy in your mouth. Fries underwhelming, small portion. It's okay, just fries loaded with their sauce and bacon, nothing special, very sauce heavy Girl in the front was really friendly and nice. Very modern and clean design, comfortable to eat at. read more

'm so happy we found Sign Smash Burgers. First off, everything is halal, which already makes it stand out. They even have beef bacon, which is something we almost never get to have anywhere, and it tasted amazing. The burgers are made with in-house ground Angus beef and you can really taste the quality. We also tried the loaded fries and regular fries, both were perfectly crispy and really good. Their sauces are made in-house and added a lot of flavor. The cookies and cream milkshake was also great. What I loved most is that nothing felt heavy afterward. The food was satisfying but still felt fresh. The restaurant was super clean and they're open late, which makes it an easy spot to come back to. Definitely recommend. read more

I just want to start off by talking about the loaded fries! 10x better than some animal style fries service was great, everyone was nice and friendly, theres lots of seating inside! they even provide gloves if you wanna get messy haha.

Sign Smash Burger - Signature sign burger. Really good - Burgers Near Me - Orange, California

"Mmmm. That is a tasty burger." With a few Smash Burger joints spaced out around the OC, Sign Smash Burger, opening a couple of months ago, fills a spot on a busy stretch of Chapman Avenue. If you're in the area, give Sign a try. The menu is simple, with a few options of smash burgers with some customizable ingredients and add-ons. For my first burger here, I enjoyed the Signature Smash--a double-patty burger topped with jalapeño, grilled smashed onions, Sign sauce, and crispy, melted cheese. The beef patties had the nice crispy edges, were seasoned just right, and were not overly salty. The Hawaiian buns and house sauce added a hint of sweetness to every bite. The burger size is on the smaller side, as with most smash burgers, compared to a regular burger. You may want to get multiple patties to fill you up. The prices are fairly competitive compared to other places. The fries were average, but perfectly fried, hot, and crispy. I'll have to give the loaded fries a try next time. Shakes, fountain drinks, and bottled water are available. Request refills on fountain drinks through the staff, as the dispensers are located behind the counter. The staff was friendly and worked hard through a busy lunch crowd. The dining area is clean and medium-sized, with a few tables and no outdoor seating. I didn't see a bathroom. The parking lot is small, but there are plenty of parking spaces across the street if needed. read more
