I was in the area and saw smashburger and figured I would give it a go. I did a "build your own" burger which consisted of beef patty medium rare, sliced cheddar, Swiss and goat cheese topped with lettuce, ketchup and mustard, with a side of smash fries (garlic and rosemary). Food did not blow me away, but it was decent. Only problem I had was my burger patty, it was not medium rare, it was instead cooked well done. Usually I wouldn't eat a burger overly cooked, but the saving grace was that this burger was pretty juicy and had good flavoring. Would I come back? Sure I'll give it another go. read more

I so badly wanted to like this place. I mean, I don't dislike it, but for the hype, it wasn't all that. We ended up eating here a few days after its grand opening, and there was still a bit of wait, which was fine. We understood. The service was good... the food was good. Nothing to go gaga over. The burger just didn't do it for me... it was just plain. The sweet potato fries and smashfries were good. Meh. It was good. Not a place I'd go out of my way to come back to though. read more

Smashburger is the best takeout I have ever had. The burgurs are delicious. I was so amazed about the service. I give this a five star.

This was the absolutely worst experience I've had. I know they've only been open for a few days but this is horrible. Between the police coming in regards to a disgruntled employee who was fired hours before we got here to the 45 minute wait just for a burger and fries! Still waiting here now and I've witnessed at least 5 customers walk up to the front and ask for a refund. The staff has sent back multiple orders because they were the incorrect! Please don't waste your time. The only people suffering besides the customers are the staff read more

I thought everything we had was delicious. I got the smash burger with smash fries. My kids and I shared a strawberry shake. We also got to try the Brussels sprouts which we were all fans of including the kids. read more

I got a five ounce mushroom Swiss burger with added grilled onions and tater tot my other half got a custom build your own burger 6 ounces chipotle bun bacon and blue cheese and fries we both got sodas. Ran us almost $27. My personal opinion best $27 ever spent 1000 times better than red robins and some of the other local Burger joints around here. They're hot they were juicy they were exactly made to order and were correct fries and tater tot's came out hot and seasoned well. If you have not been to this place yet please go give them a try. Looking forward to trying other burgers and combinations as well as the crispy brussels sprouts. read more

Don't fall for the hype. In my humble opinion this Burger joint is not worth the money. We've been wanting to check this place out for awhile and today was the day. I'm going to start out by saying that my review is based on a combination of service and food quality and unfortunately neither was outstanding. Right from the start of ordering I knew this was going to be a less than perfect interaction. The cashier was disoriented for some reason and asked us twice if we were dining in or to go. I informed her both times we would be dining in. I ordered a BBQ Bacon Cheddar burger with pimento cheese instead of cheddar. It took a few minutes to figure out how to input that. Not a big deal I've been there. I also ordered fries and a Oreo milkshake. All this came to a total of a little over $16.00 A little much for a burger and fries but ok I'll give it a shot. My burger was dry and super salty for some reason. The highlight was the fries. The smash fries are great and the only thing I may come back for in the future if I do come back. My Oreo milkshake was good but messy. The employees were just all over the place. Like they had no idea what was really going on. It was pretty crazy. Anyway if you want to try and overpriced burger then this is the place for you. If not. Go to Red Robin across the street. You can get the same thing for cheaper. read more

See all

Went here a couple of times. The cashier was very friendly and patient, setting us up with our coupons and helping us sign up for the rewards. We got our order IMMEDIATELY after. Food was delicious. Will definitely come to this location again in the future. read more

Smashburger - Burgers Near Me - Chesapeake, Virginia

Disappointing experience...covid measures taken to an extreme without regard to customer service and common sense.

Not impressed. We had hopes for this one. Tried the black bean Burger and Rosemary fries. It was below average. We won't be back.

I thought I was knocked out by Five Guys, excuse me, 5 who? I had a girl on my bus this morning and I asked her about her tee shirt. She said Smashburger, and my eyes lit up. Never had them before, but had vaguely heard of them Facebook. The ground beef was unbelievably cooked, hell the whole shebang was delicious. read more

I hadn't eaten here before, stopped in on a whim. The burger was fantastic and the staff was incredibly nice. I wish I lived closer, I'd stop in regularly! read more

Good burger! Not greasy at all. Lettuce, tomatoes all very fresh. Bacon/avocado actually had fresh avo on it. Fries were good too. Only issue we had was the temperature in the restaurant. Hubby had a heavy rugby shirt with a T under and his leather flight jacket & was still cold. I was fairly bundled too and I like the cold, but not while I eat! I do recommend trying their burgers. We will be back to try out more food from the menu. read more

Customer service was ok but there was hair in my husband's food, not just one strand but multiple hairs. The food was just meh, probably never going back. read more

My mother and I went and got the classic crispy chicken sandwich and the "chicken" was hard and not cooked at all and $25 for 2 sandwiches definitely not going back !!!! read more

I was stoked when I saw a smash burger opening up here in chesapeake. That used to be one of my go to spots in San Diego. The first time I went I was let down with my burger being extremely dry and it didn't have enough sauce. Each time I've gone though, they've gotten progressively better. You can never go wrong with their smash fries though read more

I am in love with this place! I'm a pescatarian but my husband and son love burgers and they say they are the best burger they've had in this area. My go to there is the Spinach Cucumber Goat Cheese salad. It comes in a huge bowl. I get extra goat cheese because it makes the salad even better. It has become an every other week spot to eat. You can order online as well and pick it up. read more

SmashBurger is now one of my favorite burger restaurants. The service is excellent and the burgers are delicious.

We have really enjoyed this place. We have eaten in and picked up food and the quality is always good. The food is fresh and hot. They get your food to you super fast also! Everything is customizable. Wish more seating was avalible read more

The service here is horrible!! I ordered online around 8:10pm and when I came to pick up my order which was suppose to be ready by 8:30pm no one greeted me or ask me if I needed help. The workers (including the manager) walked by me for 10mins before asking me if I needed help. They finally decided to give me an explanation saying "their printer was down" and that it would be an extra 10mins. 10mins later I still haven't received my order. ALSO none of the workers are wearing hair nets while making food. Smh. Will not be returning to this establishment. read more

There's potential for this burger place to be amazing. But they're nowhere close to being there yet, my fries and onion rings arrived cold but the burger was awesome. Also the staff seems to be ill prepared for doing their jobs I suspect they did not receive enough training ahead of time. read more

Pleasantly surprised with a last minute choice for dinner. Ordered the truffle mushroom beef burger & the old dominion burger-split an order of smash fries. Everything was delicious - could actually taste a hint of truffle, which isn't always a guarantee with "truffle" menu options. Staff was super friendly too - it was really busy & seating was at a premium, but it's a new spot. We were told there would be a 10-15 min wait for our food, which we don't mind since it's fresh, but it came out in about 5 min. Will def go back when we're craving a splurge meal! read more

My first taste of Smashburger was in El Paso on the army base there. So I was pumped when I found there was one in the Hampton area, but it had poor reviews for me to drive that far. Yippee when I found one that was opening closed to my house. We stopped there on Wednesday at around 530. I had the burger, smash fries and a drink. Gawd.... do I love those smash fries. Burger was perfect too. I was so happy! My son had the burger but added bacon and an egg. He said it was good but the burger taste got lost with the added stuff. We will be back. read more

My first time there was an excellent experience! I ordered Cobb salad with goat cheese instead of blue cheese. Greens were delicious- balance of all the toppings was perfect. My husband got a classic burger and fries-no salt. Everything was served as ordered and they even rang the order up to save us a few cents. Food was served quick by friendly employees. read more

For a burger joint, their salad was fantastic! I had the Cucumber, goat, spinach salad. The bacon avocado club was Delicious also! Will be back. read more

I was just in there 1/25/22 @ about 5:50pm and had the worst experience! I was there to pick up a order that my wife placed online I proceeded to where you pick up online orders and the lady @ the register came over came over I told her I was there to pick up an order and gave my wife's name and even told her the items in my order. She grabbed the bag of food then asked me for my phone. Confused I asked why she then proceeded to tell me she needed the confirmation from door dash, I told her that I didn't place the order that my wife did and we went around about the confirmation I even told her my card was used to pay and would she like it. Nope that wasn't good enough! So she gave a bit of a look like oh well I'm not dealing with you and put the food back on the top rack and walked away. I had to call my wife get her to get online where there is no order confirmation number just her name and order and get her to text me the information. Another younger girl said that is what she wanted to see and gave me my food. I literally gave the first girl all the info when I walked in just not the screen shot!! So I get home which is literally 2 min from the greenbrier location and the food is now cold and missing my sons chocolate milk. Please some one tell me why I need to show my order for it to still be missing an item? Why make it so hard to get something that I paid for? I have been there several times to pick up orders that my wife placed and have never been asked to prove it's mine after I have given them all the info upfront. She needs training or to be let go because she obviously doesn't care to be there. That makes me think real hard about spending my money there after that kind of lack of service. read more

Previously been to many smashburger in other states. They were all amazing but I was greatly disappointed with this location. We came to twice just to make sure it wasn't a fluke. The fries are top thick and not skinny and crispy like all the other locations. The shakes were really watered down and didnt even fill the cup all the way. The burgers weren't bad but not up to par with the other locations. Will not be returning to this location unless there is a change in management. Update: tried the smashburger location in Newport News, way better then the Chesapeake location. read more

8.95 for a Cobb salad, that was not anything like a Cobb Salad. It was a bowl of lettuce, no dressing. It was terrible, I threw most of it away. It had a weird egg on top. I would like to try a burger, but my stomach got sick from the salad, so I won't go back. I walked down from Chipotle to try this place. Big Mistake. read more

Fresh, hand-pressed moist burger with innovative toppings. Shared a side of fried pickles with ranch dressing. It was a yummy lunch!!

So this review is more based on customer service. The food was pretty tasty. I like that they had good options for kids (grilled chicken, Honest juice) and my Baja salad was really yummy. We didn't have burgers but they sure did smell amazing. Here's the reason for my 5 stars. My son promptly dropped his grilled cheese half on the ground as soon as he took one bite. A server saw this and immediately insisted on getting him a new sandwich. She apologized for the maybe 5 minute wait for the replacement. We chose to sit outside in their outdoor area, and were checked on many times. I can appreciate all of this, as a mom trying to lunch solo with 2 toddlers. Everyone who we encountered was incredibly helpful and pleasant. The experience was an excellent one and we will definitely be back! read more

This place was great! Burgers were delicious, fries/onion rings/pickle chips were all amazing. Wait time for dining in was super reasonable ~10-15 mins. No problems with our order when it came out. Manager stopped by to ask if things were to our liking and table was bussed promptly. Staff were all super courteous. Will definitely return we liked it way better than Five Guys. read more

I'm very impressed with this place. The staff is really attentive. The food is amazing, I really love that you can pick your protein. I'm not the biggest burger fan so the fact I can get a chicken patty really won me over. I'm not crazy about ordering from a counter and finding a seat tho. the line gets long quick, so if you want to add something you have to stand back in the line and hope you still have a table. Other than that this would be 5 stars. read more

New location. I have been there twice and my order has been wrong every time. I love the food and would suggest the Smash Grilled Chicken Bacon Avacado sandwich with smash fries. Overall clean environment, but small. Customer service was superb. I would definitely return even though my food was messed up. read more

Good fresh to order food. Best burger in a while I'm glad they came to Hampton roads. The wait is longer but that should be expected for fresh made food. Love it! read more

2nd visit. Family of four. Arrived at noon on Presidents Day. No line. The owners must have been there because the staff was hustling more than written below. Good burgers. Okay prices, except combo is priced $1 too much based on lack of variety of soft drink selection and small quantity of fries served. Floor is slippery in dining area. Manager used same dirty towel to wipe (not clean) table and chair. Must use two towels and a disinfectant for table (food service 101). Overall we were pleased and will return. read more

Love the burgers (especially BBQ Bacon Burger) always fresh and tasty. I drive 20 minute to have my burger fix. They're expensive when you add fries/drink BUT join the smashburger club and earn points for each purchase. Didn't take long to earn $10 off my next purchase. They do have a lot of promos too...You don't get those deals at any other burger restaurant. Best part is it's good! read more

Good burgers but the people that work there are sooo slow and the place wasn't even busy.

Super small portions for high prices. What I call a lose lose. The food doesn't taste bad but you don't get anywhere near enough for what you pay. read more

Very delicious burger and fries, but very small burgers for the price. I tried the double stack with sautaid onions.

The burgers are tasty and freshly made to order. My favorite thing to order here is the smash fries, they are so good
