    burnt part in burger

    Waited a whole damn hour for 3 burgers. There were 16 people waiting, and the crew looked like they didn't give a flying fuck. And the burgers were terrible. They even came with some free burnt chunks as our lil treat ^^ Those two patties were dry as fuck and hard as obsidian. Damn near impossible to swallow. Bro, y'all literally made me install Yelp just to leave a 1 star as my FIRST EVER review. Cheers.

    Great price for a quick breakfast

    I had an early flight out and didn't get breakfast, so I checked out the various options that were open at the airport. A few of the places wanted upwards of $16 for bacon, eggs and toast add an over priced cup of coffee and you can kiss $21 good-bye. That was until I stumbled on Smashburger. On their menu board tucked on the side, they have a breakfast menu. A breakfast sandwich that had bacon, egg (real egg), cheese, and bacon and a drink came to $10.47 For airport food, that was an awesome price.

    Classic smash burger

    We stopped at Smashburger at the Louisville Airport and had a great quick bite before our flight. Ordering on the touchscreen was super easy, and our food came out in about five minutes. We both got the single classic smash burgers, and they were excellent--juicy, flavorful, and cooked just right. The medium fries were huge--definitely enough to share between two people. There was plenty of seating available, with several small two-person tables right beside the restaurant, which made it convenient to sit down and enjoy our meal instead of eating on the go. The only downsides were that the food was lukewarm instead of hot, which took away from how good it could've been, and they were out of fountain Coke right after I ordered, which was a little disappointing. Overall, though, it was a solid airport meal--fast, tasty, and way better than your average grab-and-go option. I'd definitely eat here again if passing through!

    After sitting on a plane for two hours and. Of leaving, we were deboarded and waited for a new plane. This burger hit the spot. Not sure if it was amazing or if we were just starving. Either way not too bad for airport food. Service was not great. But we go our food.

    Showing this is NOT a double Smash Burger  like I paid for. Ripped off

    Smashburger should be ashamed of the employees that work here and provide service, and this location in general. The day I flew, it seemed they were extremely short staffed and running a skeleton crew. Which is fine, and understandable, but NONE of the employees seemed to be moving with any sense of urgency. The cashier kept taking orders regardless, then finally one more person after I ordered she stopped taking orders for a good 20 minuso the kitchen could catch up. The wait time was pretty horrendous- like 20-30 min and all I ordered was a burger and fries. You would logically think that with the main menu item they sell (hamburgers, fries...) they would constantly have some burgers on the grill and fries frying with the amount of orders people were placing. But I guess that would make far too much sense for the people who work here, because they act like they have no brain cells hence why they're probably are working here. To top it off, I ordered and PAID for a double classic smashburger and only received a single smash. But Of course, with their turtle kitchen movements I had no time to realize this because by the time my food was ready my plane was boarding and I had to just take it and eat it on the plane. Terrible Smashburger experience.

    Classic smash with single patty, tots, and miller lite

    I'm always on the lookout for good airport food places with meals under $10 that is delicious but not a rip off. This is it for me if I ever find myself back in Louisville. Concourse B, near B11. A smash burger, tots, and a cold beer. Everything was perfection. A bit slow so I'd budget like 15-20 minutes of waiting time to be safe.

    smash burger 5 people working and no food.

    if you have 50min to wait for a burger, this is your place. a couple people left, asked for a refund. trash on the counters and floors. keep walking.

    I give it a 3 because the burger was good but it took a half an hour standing in line just to order. Woefully under staffed. Did I mention the burger was very good.

    Smash burger in Louisville Kentucky at the Louisville International Airport. It's a small shop that is located next to gate six and in front of gate nine. From the look of the place. It looks amazing. You have the signs that is big and bright and looks like so welcoming to the shop. This smash burger has everything from other locations on their sign. Like chicken tenders, burgers, fries, tater tots and so much more. The place smell so good. The place is clean and looks very new from the eye of the customer. Everything looks well kept. Unfortunately, the customer service isn't the greatest. The guy that was taking our order looks miserable and I mean he looks like he really hated his job. I ask how he was doing and no response and has a reaction on his face mostly saying "just order your food" That is how he was looking at me. I just didn't feel welcome and that isn't the best feeling of a customer. Made me feel like I didn't belong there for myself. I didn't get to eat anything because they was mostly out of stuff. I wanted the turkey burger but the worker that I mentioned in the previous comment just said "We are out" I said ok and just walked away because that is mostly all I wanted after that because again, I didn't feel like I should be there for some reason. I kinda do feel bad for him. He looks like he's the only there at the moment and very busy but still. That kinda took out away my mood. You can also tell by the other customers that they aren't happy with his reaction too. You can easily get to this location after you entering security. Just walk down all the down the hall and turn right and it's right next to American Airline gates B6 like I said in my previous comment above. I wouldn't recommend this location. I would go next door to Goals Pizza. Unless you want bad customer service. Maybe if you come on a different day with a different worker then maybe this smash burger will be better. Hopefully they get more items in stock for customer satisfaction. Overall 1.0/5

Waiting area was full and standing room only when we departed an hour later. Noise level was moderately high and exacerbated by the extremely loud piped in music (Guns 'n Roses, C & C Music Factory, Shania Twain, Blackbox, Tracy Chapman). It was so unbelievably loud that we asked our server if it could be lowered since he had to lean over our table and say "What?" several times when taking our orders. To add further perspective, we were seated at a round table for 6 and he was standing next to us. It was lowered slightly after this, but still not conducive to conversation at a normal volume. I tried the chèvre fig salad, which was fantastic. It included crispy radish discs, squares of chopped fig, crunchy almond, and punctuated with 3 crunchy coated creamy goat cheese balls. I also selected a side of crispy Brussels sprouts, which were very greasy and small portion. My 5 dining companions tried burgers, seafood sliders, a mushroom Philly, truffle fries, sweet potato fries, and cola, tea, wine. Everyone was satisfied and complimentary of their choices. Will likely return.

Our group all ordered different burgers, along with the fries and Brussels sprouts, and every single plate was a hit. They have super unique sauces to try as well, I am not a huge pickle fan but the dill pickle hot sauce was my personal favorite. I also recommend grabbing a brown butter toffee cookie on your way out. The restaurant has a fun, laid-back atmosphere with great music, colorful murals, a lively bar area, and Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives playing on the TVs, which was a nice touch. It's also located in a cute part of downtown Louisville that's worth exploring. The service matched the food. Everyone was welcoming, happy to answer our questions, and made sure we had everything we needed. This will definitely be on my list for a return visit the next time I'm in Louisville.

Instead of the usual fries, you can choose from a salad, fruit cup, edamame, and other fresh sides, which is a nice change.

I had the crispy chicken sandwich, and it was perfectly crispy, juicy, and full of flavor. Drink refills are free, which is always appreciated. The only small inconvenience is that you have to ask an employee for a refill since the drink station isn't easily accessible. It would be even more convenient if the drink machine were located in an area where customers could refill their own drinks. Overall, the food, value, and service make this an easy 5-star experience. I'll definitely be back!

There is drive thru where a person with an ordering pad will take your order before you go around to the collection window. I warn you, there is always a long line for pickup so ordering ahead for takeout or going inside to order may be quicker.

Being my first time in Kentucky I asked for a recommendation for a nice shot of bourbon to sip while I waited for my meal, with the caveats that I'd like for it to be from a lesser known, small distiller and under $25 for the drink. He delivered with a shot of Minor Case Straight Rye Whiskey that has a sherry cask finish from Limestone Branch Distillery. It was smooth with no bite and a nice linger. Three solid hits between the burger, bourbon and bartender - would definitely recommend.
