    New ground chicken burger (double/jalapeno pictured = $13!) 10/2024
    Mike S.

    Smashburger are really quite tasty. Their only knock is how pricey they are for their modest overall sizes. Averaging around $7 for a single beef and up to $12 for a double chicken patty. Note that each patty is smallish in size... barely 3 oz maybe and significantly smaller than a 4oz "quarter pound" of beef. Akin to the size of a single In/Out patty. Drink fountain is help your self Fried Brussels Sprouts are delicious and not "horrible" for you Lol. After the lunch rush the crowd really thins down to just 1-2 tables the rest of the afternoon. Parking is easy in their shared/private lot. Bathrooms are meh - a little dingy and sparse.

    My son's solid clump of mac and cheese! (None for me thanks)

    I used to come into smashburger quite often. Admittedly it's been awhile since I've been here. Life got busy and I've been on a health journey! I came in for the first time in a while and they had changed their menu and gotten rid of the dairy free shakes. We proceeded to order food. I got the American double no cheese. (I'm allergic) My son was eager to try the mac and cheese! (Big Mistake!) My husband got a double truffle burger. Flash forward to being served my food. Both my husbands burger and mine were singles when we ordered and paid for doubles. The fix was another patty for each so they fired a new patty each. Then looking at my son's Mac and cheese was disturbing. There were 2 or 3 little elbow noodles in a sponge of burnt grill grease and a little shake of cheese. It wasn't even eatable. So we brought our food to the counter including the mac and cheese. They just said thats there mac and cheese and then charged me for a whole nother kids meal so my son could get a cheese burger. (We had to buy a whole new kids meal. ) The manager who was the one that forgot our second patties came out and explained it's policy. I should of told her to eat a bite... it one solid piece not a matter of not liking. Both employees the manager included didn't seem happy to be there. They were a little cold in their deminers. There was never an effort to apologize or anything.

    Smash Tots Bacon Smash Burger
    Daniel A.

    Decent higher-end hamburger joint. Tasty food, small portions. The smash tots are my favorite, the rosemary on the tots makes these extra tasty. Some of the time I have been though, the tots come out super oily which makes finishing them almost impossible. Hamburgers are decent, but small. Don't have the good hamburger char I crave. Bacon on the burger was alright, not the crisp melt in your mouth bacon I've found elsewhere. Definitely prefer other hamburger joints over Smashburger. I do enjoy their shakes especially their peanuts butter shakes. Expect to pay for $10+ for your burger and fries. Shakes are expensive at $6 Overall, love the smash tots and shakes but I expect something more of the hamburgers here.

    SMOKED BACON BRISKET BURGER and CRISPY BRUSSELS SPROUTS $17
    James C.

    Stopped in for quick burgers before Hockey on a Saturday. We had the bacon brisket burgers. They were definitely flavorful. The brisket was a little tough but it didn't take away from the overall burger. We has sweet potato fries and brussel sprouts for the sides. The sprouts were cooked correctly with a char on the outside and tender throughout the rest. The sweet potato fries were undercooked but ok. It served well for a meal when we were pinched for time. The price is close to $20 per person which is high for fast food so at that price quality is scrutinized for sure. The service was quick and the employees were friendly and hustled. The restaurant was clean and well stocked with condiments. So that was a plus.

    Burger with jalapeños + SMASHFRIES

    The food was pretty good, but quite expensive for what it was. The staff was very nice.

    DOUBLE BACON SMASH BURGER
    Matthew W.

    Exquisite burgers, the patties delicious buns, toasted to perfection, bacon crunchy burger came with best cheese, and the service was great little pricey, though

    This is the lack of anything I paid for. The dark stuff is just the cheese that was cooked on the grill. There is no bacon.

    My wife and i just ordered two burgers. One being an avocado bacon club burger and a grilled mac and cheese burger. The club burger was to have tomatoes (which it lacked) i paid $1.60 for bacon and $1.60 for grilled onions. A $14.00 burger i might add. The fine folk at this place decided that they would rather take my money and not give me what I paid for. This seems to be par for the course for most Smashburger here in Tucson. The manager has the audacity to tell me that it's new peoples fault. I work in food industry and I know how to read tickets and I know how to train people to read tickets. That's why I'm good at what I do zero out of 10 if I could do not come here. Or to any Smashburger in Tucson if you can save yourself the trouble. The best part is the restaurant was dead My Wife and I were the only people there. If it was busy like balls to the wall with people everywhere. I guess I could understand something like this, but this is truly just outrageous. Go to Whataburger or In-N-Out I promise you will be far less disappointed. The ambience was pretty cool, except for the fact that the staff don't know how to read tickets at all plain simple. My favorite part is the business manager or business. Consumer, (reviews@smashburger.com) is going to reach out and try to rectify this but they won't actually train their staff to do the job that they're training for. I would say have a good day but I charge you $1.60 to say that so I'm gonna say have the day you deserve Smashburger staff.

    The day after Brussels
    Whit B.

    The ingredients seem good quality, but mishandled to the point of being ruined. I ordered takeout so it wasn't piping hot which I expected but, it was also so incredibly salty and greasy; I didn't really enjoy it, the fries were saturated and the burger was dripping in grease, the Brussels sprouts were also way way too oily. The pic is the cold Brussels sprouts, you can see the excess congealed oil on the bottom. They're basically confit. Also, these weren't salted at all. Not good. It all hurt my stomach.

    Cobb Salad
    Melissa T.

    Ordered the Cobb salad. Do not waste your money. The salad at Wendys is better. The service could also be a wee bit better.

    Clean facilities and low-key ambiance with helpful crew. Burger and sides were good--nothing too special, but solid.

    It was 1:30. I had run several errands and had an appointment at 2:15, so needed to find a fast…read morelunch. At Swan and Speedway is a Panda Express and that sounded fast and good. I walked in and a smattering of diners were eating. An L-shaped counter held the dozens of choices so a customer could peruse and choose. Since the hub wasn't going to be home for dinner, I decided on a plate of two entrees and a side, for around eleven dollars, providing plenty of leftovers for tonight. I chose Beijing beef, black pepper chicken and split my side half and half with lo mein and vegetables. The box of food looked yummy and I was hungry. The beef dish flavor was fine, but the meat itself was so tough it was like beef jerky. The chicken was good, but there were only three small bites of chicken with veggies. The lo mein was dry and flavorless, with no seasoning. I ate part of this disappointment, closed the box, and prepared to go to my 2:15. I thought about how I could doctor this for an improvement, but then I walked past the trash container near the door and chucked it all. I could forage in my kitchen for a better dinner than this. I am not a frequent flyer of chain restaurants and have no idea if my meal would have been better at a different location. I am not likely to find out. Oh, and btw, this store locks their bathrooms and you have to get someone to open them.

    Super friendly and welcoming service is their strongest asset. This place can get going at a…read morefeverous pace during the lunch rush. A lunch rush that I have happened upon on a few occasions recently. I have now eaten here 3 times in the last month, and when I pulled in on the first visit I found a stall directly in front of the front of the place. Looking through the plate glass windows, I saw a number of customers who were lined up and waiting to have their orders taken and thought, "Ahhhgh, that's a huge line." Despite this huge line (a sign that the place is pretty popular) I decided to show patience and "give it a go" (I've been to Panda Experss' a ton of times before, and know it offers decent food--the concern I had was for how long it would take.) My mouth was already a'watering for some Chinese food, so on in I went. My patience was not tested at all as I was served surprisingly quickly. Within a minute (it actually really was about four minutes) I was seated and chowing down on a satisfactory plate of tender flavorful chicken resting on a bed of chow mein. The portions here are abundant (at least for me they are, as I got the 2 entree plate for just over $13 and realized that it was a bit too much--so put the beef portion of the plate in a to-go cup. I would be shared it a few minutes later with an unhoused guy at a gas station down the road--who was thrilled and gave me a huge smile of appreciation and a thumbs up as he feasted and I drove away) Anyways. despite the large number of people waiting, the staff can efficiently serve the huddling masses. On all 3 recent visits in the past month, I have been very impressed by how the employees have rallied-together to do all that it takes to get the food out to hungry customers. The management here appears to really care about having their customers leave happy. All customers are greeted warmly as we enter and the energy here is warm and appreciative. I have been impressed by 2 different shift managers who, in my opinion, have the rare ability to rally the troops in a way where everyone working seems happy to "pull together". In summation...The food is pretty good--as is the value. Keep in mind that this is a fast food place that is part of an international chain, so it's not going to be crazy-succulent and decadent. It is also not going to served at a pace that will allow the food to be savored and reveled in. But you will get decent Chinese--and you will get it fast. As an added bonus, if you stay and pay attention to what is going on in the kitchen and service lines, you will likely observe what very effective inspiring leadership, and motivated team membership looks like.
