    SMASHFRIES®
    Wing L.

    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.

    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!

    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.

    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.

    Outdoor seating-pleasant. If tables are dirty, ask staff INSIDE to please wipe down table. I did. First time here.

    My first visit to SMASHBURGER, and WOW!! THE FOOD IS DELICIOUS!! I really wasn't expecting it to be this good, but it really is excellent!! I ordered the CLASSIC DOUBLE SMASH, and REGULAR FRIES-YUMMY!! I ENJOYED EVERY MORSAL OF EVERYTHING! LOL PERFECT SHOESTRING FRIES!! REALLY DELISH!!! Just the way I like them. Crispy on the outside, and yummy on the inside. THE CLASSIC DOUBLE SMASH--WONDERFULLY DELICIOUS!! Mmm, comes with green shredded lettuce, fresh slices of tomato, American cheese, pickle slices, and you can help yourself to condiments at the condiments station, near the sodas and napkins. I recommend a fork for when some of the lettuce or tomatoes need a little redirecting as you eat your burger. DELICIOUS burger and fries, and I'll be back, for sure!! Respectfully suggesting- remember to keep an eye on the outdoor tables, to wipe them down as needed. And, do not hesitate to tell a first time customer that THE FOOD IS REALLY GOOD! :). When I ordered, I said that it was my first time here, and I even asked a couple of questions, and I appreciated the quick answers, including, consulting with a colleague in order to get an answer. NICE!! But if you had told me the food is great, I would have had a little bit more peace of mind. I wasn't sure what to expect. The Yelp reviews were very good, but I did not feel any enthusiasm from the staff, in terms of liking the food.... Sometimes that can really be nice to hear. OVERALL-GREAT FOOD!!! Nice staff.

    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.

    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.

    Brisket burger
    Jing K.

    Quick and attentive service in a very clean and spacious setting with apple seating on the second floor. Ordered a double mushroom burger with a side of brussel sprouts that was packed with nicely sauteed mushrooms and crisply fried brussel sprouts on a very juicy burger. Brisket burger was moist and smoky. Kids meal was a very nice size.

    The food is OK, but 20 minutes for one burger? I could've opened a franchise of my own in the time it took for them to make one sandwich.

    Monkey Bar - Smoked Whitefish Caesar (~$28)

    Monkey Bar

    4.3(475 reviews)

    Getting a reservation here is very hard. One just popped up in my Resy app for lunch though, so I…read morewent for it. It was my first time here although, it has been around for ages. The front part where you first walk in is the bar area with some tables. This restaurant is on the darker side and brings you back in time. Once you walk in further that is where the main dinning room is. This is also on the darker side as you can maybe tell by my photos. The wall paper and art around the restaurant is cool and there are some monkey statues around the restaurant. I was seated in a corner table in a booth area that seemed to be for at least 2-3 people. I thought for sure they would seat me at the bar area. I had a wonderful waitress whose name I think was Taylor but I could be wrong. I ordered the Monkey bread to start off with. It's a very buttery bread with truffle and parm cheese on top. I have alot of allergies and I was searching online if I could even have truffles as I have a nut allergy. So, I asked the waitress and she said she had never heard this. But, she came back to me and told me that White truffle grows near or like over where Almonds grow from but that, they don't use white truffle so I was all good. Well, this was super nice of her to check for me. I had no idea she was going to do this. She said the restaurant has strict protocols when it comes to food allergies. I then got for my main dish the double cheese burger with onions and pickles. To drink I had the cucumber martini. WOW everything was pretty darn good!! I passed on dessert. If you get a chance or a reservation pops up in your resy to go, even if it is for lunch..I highly say go for it.

    From the moment we sat down, the service set the tone for the entire experience. Our server was…read moreincredibly warm, upbeat, and full of energy--one of those people who genuinely elevates a meal. I only wish I could remember her name because she deserves the recognition. We started with drinks, and mine ended up being a surprise standout. I ordered the coconut margarita, slightly hesitant since I'm not usually a margarita fan--but it completely won me over. It struck a perfect balance and leaned just enough into the coconut to make it feel unique without being overpowering. My sister-in-law, who's pregnant, had a non-alcoholic Ritual margarita and loved it, noting how convincingly it mimicked the real thing. Since we were sharing, we got to try a good mix of the menu. The monkey bread came first--definitely a splurge at $34, but it's one of those fun, indulgent starters that's worth ordering at least once. While I wouldn't call it the best bread I've ever had, I also wouldn't change anything about it. The crab rangoon was another highlight. Having it made with real crab made a noticeable difference, and the dipping sauces complemented it really well. It felt like a more elevated take on something familiar. For mains, the French dip was a hit. The meat was incredibly tender, the bread had that ideal crusty exterior, and the au jus was packed with flavor--I was very glad I ordered extra. It pulled the whole dish together. We also tried the smoked whitefish Caesar, which was the only dish that didn't quite land for me. It was a well-made, fresh salad, but the smoked fish flavor was a bit overpowering and took over the balance of the dish. Even though we were too full for dessert, the restaurant surprised us with a scoop of strawberry ice cream with chocolate sauce to celebrate my sister-in-law's babymoon. It ended up being one of the most memorable bites of the meal--we're still talking about how good that ice cream was. We arrived right at 11:45, and by the time we left, the place was absolutely buzzing. It's clearly a popular spot, and for good reason. Between the lively atmosphere, strong service, and well-executed food, I'd highly recommend making a reservation if you can.
