Custom Smashburger. Greasy mess. Alright
Glenn C.

This is one of the many locations of this chain. From the many times I've passed by this corner, I have rarely seen anyone eating here, but there's always a lot of takeout orders, so I guess that's how they stay in business. I went a while back and ordered a Custom Smashburger with a side of Sweet Potato Fries, and combined, it was around $15 or $16, or something similar. They also apparently have a somewhat more reasonably priced combo, which comes with their standard Smashburger, fries, and a drink for around $13. It took a while to get the burger, but since it wasn't Burger King or similar, I wasn't that surprised. I walked back a short distance from there to my place and opened the takeout bag, revealing my very messy burger. The burger itself reminded me in many ways of Five Guys, with it being very greasy and falling apart just about instantly from the grease-soaked bun. By comparison to that chain, a few of the toppings aren't included, and it felt maybe a little bit smaller, but I'm not positive, as I haven't had Five Guys in ages. On my side, while the portion wasn't the biggest, the sweet potato fries were much better than expected. I probably won't stop in again, but that's just by principle. If your standard Five Guys is a mid-upper 2, this falls under the same boat. If there were a 2.5 option, I would put it there pronto.

Just met with my accountant, filed my 2025 taxes ... and felt that I deserved a treat As I was pondering what that should be, up popped an email promoting a Smashburger "buy one, get one free" special deal. I wa a mere 5 blocks away & hungry - so sold! My BBQ Bacon Double x 2 for the price of 1 was absolutely delicious. Thanks for the recommendation Host Leon! I'll be back! This location is also conveniently located 2 blocks from Bloomingdale's. Roomy seating & bar on 2nd floor + limited counter seating near kitchen & entrance.

This location has seating and a bar on the second level. There is an elevator in the back for those that can't climb the stairs. The staffs are friendly and service is fast. We waited about 10 minutes for our food. I think it's fast since there were an about 8-9 people ahead of us. We got a chili, All American smash, Colorado smash, and fries. The All American smash and fries was good. The chili is a little bland and the portion is small. The Colorado smash was very oily and it's missing the kick even though it has green chiles.

Classic smash with bacon
Jennifer D.

Most excellent smash style angus burger with fresh toppings on a soft butter toasted bun. Good ratio of meat, toppings, bun. The fries are shoe string cut and tossed in rosemary garlic olive oil, really tasty. If you're in the mood for a good smash burger they do them right.

Love smashburgers! I had the truffle mushroom burger with the smash fries. I also had the peanut butter shake compliments of smashburger for my birthday! That was an exciting reward! They also offer 15% off to students and staff since they're right by Hunter. I'm surprised it wasn't busy when I went there. Definitely enjoyed my food!

BACON SMASH CRISPY CHICKEN SANDWICH
Christine N.

First Impressions - N/A, ordered for delivery to work The Noms - Classic smash burger - last night I was craving a burger and ordered the classic smash.. it was satisfying and the perfect size. Burger was juicy and it was the right amount of sauce. Fries were good too. The next day for lunch I was craving chicken so I ordered the bacon avocado smash crispy chicken burger. I was disappointed in this one because the chicken was too dry. No flavor but too salty. Fries were good, just like yesterday. In Conclusion - I would still order from here, but only the burgers, definitely going to avoid any of the chicken sandwiches. You should too.

SPICY JALAPEO SMASH x CRISPY BRUSSELS SPROUTS
Zenda D.

Let's start with the smash burger itself juicy, perfectly seasoned, and that crispy sear on the patty? Chef's kiss! I went for the classic with melted cheddar, but the real MVP? The secret sauce creamy, tangy dream that tied everything together. Every bite was juicy, flavorful, and just the right amount of messy (in the best way possible, of course)! I can't forget about the sweet crispy Brussels sprouts either. Tossed in some kind of magical glaze, they were crispy on the outside with a perfect caramelized sweetness on the inside delicious doesn't even cover it. Who knew Brussels sprouts could steal the show?! The cherry on top was their happy hour cocktails. I tried their signature coconut mule and it was a burst of refreshing flavors think tropical vibes in a glass. Super light but with just enough kick to complement the meal. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal

I didn't want to get customers faces, but these are just a couple of the tables that were dirty.

Every time I come to this Smashburger, 1925 Turnbull Avenue, Bronx, NY 10473, I notice the same issue: long lines at the register with no cashier present, and tickets piling up (usually 5-6 waiting at a time). Customers end up waiting far longer than they should, and it feels like there's no real system in place to manage the flow. Whether it's more cashiers, more kitchen staff, or stronger leadership on shift, something needs to change for the efficiency and experience of customers. Today's visit went from frustrating to concerning. I witnessed the employee handling food also working the register--constantly switching back and forth--which already slows things down. On top of that, there was a major cleanliness issue: A customer saw an employee wipe sweat with his hands, keep the same gloves on, and continue touching food and surfaces. She spoke up, asking him to wash his hands and change gloves. While her tone may have come across as urgent, I agree with her 100%. That is not a big ask--it's basic food safety. Instead of properly washing his hands, the employee only swapped gloves. What makes this worse is the lack of visible management. I've never seen anyone step in who looks like a manager to set a standard or resolve issues. Leadership presence is absolutely needed here. On top of that, the restaurant itself is often dirty, and the bathroom's changing table constantly drops open, leaving the door stuck--another clear sign that basic upkeep is being neglected. It would be an injustice to this community if Smashburger leadership chose not to invest in this location. Poor service and questionable food safety give the impression that customers here are not valued. If T-Mobile can invest in making their nearby store a true "customer experience" center, Smashburger can (and should) take that same approach here. This restaurant--and the people it serves--deserve better.

AVOCADO BACON CLUB BURGER
Rob M.

I am literally salivating as I attempt to write this review. I went big, snagging an avocado bacon burger, fries, onion rings, and an oreo milkshake. Three days later, my taste buds are still singing. That meal taught me more about self-love than thousands of dollars worth of therapy (to be fair, that's like two sessions, but still). The avocado bacon burger is every bit as luscious as it sounds. It's velvety avocado tangoing with smoky bacon on a gleaming parquet of beef and oozy cheese. How could you not learn something about love from it? The shoestring fries and onomatopoeia-worthy CRUNCHY onion rings served as perfectly balanced textural and flavorful compliments, at some points threatening to steal the show. The oreo milkshake, meanwhile, is basically liquid dopamine. But with oreo chunks at the bottom that you have to eat with a spoon. Absolutely sensational. Also, since this is a review, I should add that the upstairs is cool. There's a good amount of seating and lots of sun. I sat by the window where I could watch pedestrians scurry around with yoga mats on their backs while I housed truffle fries. I would be lying if I said that didn't make them taste even better.

Mushroom truffle burger and sprouts
Lien L.

New Smashburger in UES and it has a unique space. You order food on the first floor and if you would like seating they have a larger space on the second with a bar. Very friendly for families since there's an elevator. I ordered a truffle burger and brussel sprouts and it was very tasty and loaded with lots of mushrooms. Sprouts were nice and crispy and not greasy. Strawberry shake was not as thick as I would like but it was still tasty. The only thing I can knock them for is that there's really no one upstairs so if you need extra supplies like condiments you have to go all the way back downstairs. Plus the bar just kinda looks out of place and there were a few flies just buzzing around so that needs to be addressed. Overall would go there again if in need a quick bite.

Hmmm health violations? I wasn't aware of that before going there. The burger was not so smashed nor very good, tasted very fast food for the price. The place was busy though so it might be tasty to others. Service wasn't great. Won't go back.

Inside (upstairs more seating + bar)
Polly H.

I enjoyed my meal here. I was just in the mood for something greasy and so I found myself trying something new. I also ordered a regular size order for french fries which were alright. It was clean inside and not particularly packed on a Friday night, and I found the the staff was helpful. I think I waited about fifteen to twenty minutes for my food, so it's not fast, because there's lots of to-go orders. I just can't believe that there is bar on the 2nd floor. Cool surprise. There's standing spot to eat downstairs and also more seating upstairs. I might revisit.

OREO COOKIES & CREAM SHAKE
Anthony P.

On the lookout for the best smash burger in NYC and unfortunately it wasn't here. For almost $20 a burger, it wasn't melt in your mouth, and the fries were a bit cold. The location is great for coming to just enjoy some bar food, watch a game, however. It's large and the service was good enough. The shake was also a bit watery.

We were thrilled to find two seats at the end of the bar when we arrived. As luck would have it, the two gentlemen next to us eventually left, allowing us to slide over and enjoy an even better view of the TV for the rest of the game. I started with a Tito's and club soda, but unfortunately, something seemed off--perhaps the club soda was flat. The drink just wasn't good. To their credit, the bartender took it back without hesitation and was very accommodating. I then ordered a Negroni after the woman sitting next to us highly recommended it. I don't usually drink gin, but this cocktail was absolutely delicious and changed my mind. Since we were there for several hours, we shared an order of zucchini and eggplant chips and happily snacked on them throughout the game. The atmosphere was comfortable and welcoming, with a nice mix of ages and people enjoying the evening. We made sure to leave our bartender a generous tip since we occupied our seats for the entire game. Even though the Knicks didn't pull out a win that night, we certainly didn't leave defeated. I'd happily return for another game, cocktail, and fun evening out. And maybe even get dinner there. Little did I know there was another big room in the ack once you past the restrooms. They were having a thriving business there!

Also, an obvious side note- You wonder how a place that's been open for, I believe, a year and a half has 1500 Google Reviews? It's because they give you a free soda if you write a 5-star review, so I guess if you have a palate for Polar sodas, you can give them a five on that site. If you're going to get anything, go for the tender combo, as their sliders, burgers, and buns are bad. Anyway, it's nice to find a Zabiha Halal spot that serves burgers and other American grub in this neighborhood. I used to frequent somewhat similar spots back in the Arabic neighborhood I lived near in Brooklyn, and it was nice to see this place open a while back. I have tried a handful of things here, and honestly, it's gotten worse every time. The first time, I got the tenders consisting of six pieces for $14, which is honestly very reasonable. The thinner pieces were a tad dry, as the batter had become overly fried, but it's hard to complain about the price point. They also came with a perfectly alright sauce called Mambo, which they list as spicy but is as hot as a spicy McNugget or similar with a light sweetness. The second time, I had the Slider Combo for $7.99, which came with two chicken sliders (spicy if wanted,) fries, and a Polar soda. The fries were honestly nice and better quality than those at any nearby fast-food place. The sliders were dreadful, however. They were dry with overly breaded chicken with no pickles or anything else to help, so I guess that's why it comes with a soda or water. This doesn't help the even worse bun, which was dry as well, and makes a Martin's potato roll look like a Rolls-Royce. The Polar drink was, as expected, a worse Diet Coke. The last time, and the last time I'll ever stop in here, I got the Classic Burger, which is their smash patty with American cheese, holy sauce, lettuce, tomato, and onion. This was the worst burger I've had in ages and easily the worst smashburger, with the meat somehow being dry. I guess the bun was different as it was larger, but also as the top was charred better than the burger meat. Maybe the signature burger for $4 more is better, but I'm never going to stop for it if they're careless enough to burn a burger bun. 3 stars for the chicken tenders due to the deal. 2 stars for the slider combo, as the fries were decent. 0.5 stars for the burger. 2/5

Two-part, proper settle, tight dome, no rushing it. That's rarer than it should be in Midtown where half the bars treat a stout like a lager. Whoever's behind the bar here has been trained or grew up around it. Food's better than a second-floor pub between 5th and 6th has any right to be. The JRB burger comes on a house-ground patty (they grind in-house, and you can tell, loose texture, actual seasoning), caramelized onions cooked down all the way, not just softened, good cheese pull. Fried pickles on the side had a crisp cornmeal shell and stayed crunchy under the burger juices, which never happens. Buttermilk chicken salad was the surprise. Chicken actually brined, crust stayed on, greens weren't an afterthought. Only real knock: music was loud. Not sports-bar loud, more like the bartender's playlist got away from him. Fine at the bar, harder at a table if you want to talk. Room's got real bones. Reclaimed barn wood, old rail track as a foot rest, that big 45-star flag on the wall. Been here almost 20 years and it's aged into itself. For the neighborhood the pricing's fair. Beats P.J. Clarke's on the burger, loses on quiet. Go for a beer and a burger, not a date.
