    Outside of Smash Masters
    Karl M.

    * The Double Smash burger was great - the buns were incredibly soft, the cheese was gooey, and the beef had a nice smashed crust with crispy edges * The fries were nicely seasoned and crunchy and the SM sauce that came with it was delicious blend of sweet and tangy * Overall, a delicious spot in downtown L.A. that has friendly service and is reasonably priced for its location

    We've been starving for some new food options in our neck of DTLA, particularly this little strip mall where restaurants don't seem to last terribly long over the past couple years, but my boss passed by today and said that they were open so he came over, and unfortunately, he's vegetarian so they don't have any options for him, but for me, their menu is limited, but their prices are very fair for smash burgers let alone Smashburger's in DTLA. Smashed and charred edges to perfection, with good taste. Simple, but tasty! The fries are shoestring, but also cooked perfectly crispy and topped with a little spice and a little drizzle. The Egg Roll Burger... it is in fact an Egg Roll w the Smashburger ingredients inside. Tasty and I'd get it again for a change-up, but the better value (and flavor) is in their burgers. Super nice crew, not much ambience inside and they're still having some opening day glitches, but I do foresee us in my office frequenting this location

    A Double Smash Burger, good lacing and tasty!!!

    On a whim and to have a snack before going out to dinner later, my girlfriend and I decided to walk next-door to a newly opened restaurant on the ground floor of the building we are staying in... This would be "Smash Masters," a spartan and clean restaurant that really only has one or two things on the menu: smash burgers and something they have created eponymously called an eggroll smash burger. No chicken. No pork. Just beef smash burgers... And let me tell you, they are excellent burgers, what with the patties being extremely thin and smashed so as to get that lacing we all love protruding out of the soft potato bun. They come w pickles, cheese, onions and sauce. Perfect. Something we were not expecting to crow about are their french fries which are as good as any I've ever had at a smash burger joint. Thin, crispy shoe string fries nicely and not overly seasoned w some kind of Lawry's Seasoning Salt that just makes them sing. The smash sauce here is good, nothing remarkable, and maybe a tad looser than I'd like, but damn serviceable too. These are smash burgers of the highest order! Get here.

    This sauce is so good!

    You better bring it if you name yourself Smash Masters. This new Smash Burger spot in DTLA does just that. Straigh . Delicious burgers at a great price and excellent friendly and welcoming service. Come support these guys, we really need more options like this. Get the Double Smash meal at only $15 and you will be amazed at the quality and taste for a very reasonable price. You will walk out full and completely satisfied.

    This appears to be a brand spanking new place. It bright and clean. It was quite empty. I ordered a #1 with bacon plus fries and a drink. The attendant was quite friendly. He made sure I was good that my fries coming with smash sauce. My food was quickly made. It was modestly sized burger, in retrospect I should of ordered a double. I would encourage them to offer a triple, though it appears you can a la carte add a patty to a double. The patty is plenty smashed with a lot of mallard goodness. Great flavors from the burger and fries. This place is off to a good start, its tough out here. I hope they eventually add onion rings and more.

    flop this was $15...it's not worth that much imo like it's not bad but it's very underwhelming it's like a school lunch that id eat if it was free but wouldn't go out of my way to pay for

    Combo #2 Double Smash
    Semaje S.

    With only 3-5 options this burger spot is great for its customer service and food. I got the combo #2. The fries were good. Well seasoned. The added sauce gave my taste buds a kick. The burger was juicy. I got my food to go but there are tables to sit down at.

    The place is very clean and nice!

    I can definitely understand why reservations for this place is needed so far out in advanced. The…read morefood, the location, the venue, everything is absolutely wonderful. From the moment you step in, the hostess and the staff take care of you from start to finish. They have amazing recommendations and you cannot go wrong with any of the options they provide. I had the Baby Albacore and Hokkaido Scallop as appetizers and they were delish. I leaned a bit more towards the Albacore over the scallop, but both great. I also had the Sour Milk Cornbread which was magical and tasted like a cross between cornbread meets bundt cake. The flavor was perfect and was one of the best cornbread I have ever had. The pork chop was immaculate. I have yet to taste a pork chop that was so perfectly cooked from the moistness and the flavor. For dessert, the cobbler was ordered and goodness gracious it was absolutely amazing. If you come here, have all the courses, do not miss any course what so ever.

    I had a reservation for Dunsmoor like two months ago, but something came up and I wound up…read morecancelling (in hindsight--dang it I woulda ate here twice!). Made another and was not even remotely disappointed. This was one of my recent favorite meals by far and dunno if I was just starving or what cause it was all hits and no misses. Our server was very sweet and friendly, as were most of the staff here. The inside is cozy, casual, and comfortable with lots of wood and plants. We ordered SO much food, mainly to try more things, and also because my eyes are perpetually bigger than my stomach. That's fine though! Even the leftovers were delicious as heck. - Cornbread--absolutely smothered in butter and honey, crispy on the outside and very moist on the inside with great jalapeño flavor. Saw some lady on social media say this was gross and dry... surely that was rage bait? - Bread--got both the jam and butter which were both amazing as it came with two types of warm bread that was perfectly crusty and soft. However, given the amount of butter overall in this meal, it wouldn't be a loss to skip. - Peaches--came with farmer's cheese, which is like a creamy, drier version of cottage cheese, that paired really well with the sweet juicy peaches, basil, and fresh lemon dressing. Summer on a plate. - Carolina gold rice--never had this dish before, it's like shrimp n grits met porridge, rich snd hearty with plenty of shrimp flavor from the shrimp butter. - Mushroom-crusted pork chop--easily usurped my previous favorite pork chop from Chez Maggy in Denver, and is now my favorite pork chop :) - Ribeye with bone marrow--also one of the best steaks from a restaurant we've had. My husband's gotten to the point where he doesn't like ordering steaks (usually I'm the offender) because they're usually not very good even from "steakhouses", but this ribeye was great. Perfect crust, perfect med-rare cook, lots of flavor, tender and delicious. Bonus was the bone marrow I saved half of for my spoiled dog. - Sticky date pudding--I think I confused this with a sticky toffee pudding although it's very similar and equally tasty as heck. Don't skip this! Typically I have to be borderline blackmailed into eating all my leftovers but there was no arm-twisting for Dunsmoor's. Street parking unless you valet. There's a line by opening for walk-ins, and apparently a separate line for reservations on the other side of the door.

Right off the bat, I was taken aback by the beauty of everything: the store, furniture, the decor, the tableware, the plating, the food, and even the damn servers. But anyway, we ordered the following: Tuna Violette Bouquet Agnolotti Cousu Main Crab & Caviar Beef Perlé Goddess Garden Chocolate Cannage I'm pretty sure I ordered a Matcha Latte too. It was real matcha, only very slightly sweetened. Oh, and the croissants? Complimentary, and you bet we devoured them. I made a mess lol. The meal itself was art, which was like nothing I've seen before in food (at least not food that was also tasty). I would have devoured all of them on my own, but no. Split with two of my friends. I'm tempted to just come back alone and re-order them and go shopping afterwards. My friend was unimpressed by the agnolotti cousu main; her critique was that it tasted average, with the broth as its saving grace. I still liked it though.

Service throughout the afternoon was attentive, professional, and never rushed, making it easy to relax and enjoy the celebration. It was a wonderful place to celebrate a special occasion, and I would happily return for another memorable meal.
