    The bottom of the cup is SATURATED with oil, like the fries...
    Russ P.

    Today was my first time eating anything from any Smashburger. I ordered from the 7th Street NW location since it's close to my office. The burger was okay, but the fries are too disgusting to get past the first piece. They looked like they've been soaking in the deep fryer after being cooked. When I tipped the cup on its side, it was more obvious. YUCK!

    Terrible service. My pick up order was marked as ready at 2:22pm and I was not handed my food until 2:37pm. No apology no free drink no nothing. Definitely my last time here. Too many food options in the Gallery Place area to accept subpar service. Poor service does not breed return business.

    Enjoyed the double BBQ smash burger with fries. Nice for a quick bite to enjoy alone or with others. Hard to find good parking but there are parking meters around. Our server, Diamond, was excellent in giving us details on what's best to try and delivered our food with a smile. I enjoyed the various drink options as well that had free refills. Enjoy.

    I am not a big burger person but have learned if it a smash burger you can always count me in. This burger was so good and so was my shake. The burger was nice and juicy and the bun was soft as welll

    The food was ok. It was my first time eating here. The time it took for them to cook my cousin's 6 chicken wings was wild. She ordered her food before us and we'd gotten our food, eaten, and ready to go before they finished hers. She ended up getting it to go. They were astronomically slow. I think I'm all set on smash burger, but check it out if you're interested just prepare yourself for potentially a long wait time.

    stumbled upon this spot while walking around downtown with friends. Decided to check it out and I'm glad we did. 3/4 of us got the spicy jalapeño burger. This burger did not disappoint ! If youre into spice def order it. The single patty was filling, but totally understand if youre a double patty person. The tater tots and fries were also pretty tasty. I ordered the oreo milkshake as well and asked if they could add a bit of caramel and they gladly did. Shoutout to kendall and the team for making our time there memorable and delicious.

    Didnt receive the double bbq bacon. My daughter has a dairy allergy (not just lactose intolerant) and I had to use her EPI-PEN because they sent her a DAIRY shake as opposedto the NON-DAIRY that was ordered! The CLASSIC burger had CHEESE ON IT...just THE WORST! Obviously the staff is lacking and dropping the ball! Don't know if the food was any good because it was all EXTREMELY COLD by the time we stabilized our daughter! It was cold when we got it anyway.

    I had a long day in the city and had a taste for a burger, shake, and some fries. My usual go-to for the fixed is Good stuff, five guys, or Shake Shack. I decided to give this place a try. Needless to say, I was extremely disappointed. The burger was too pink for my liking (no, they didn't ask me how I wanted my burger. The fries were extremely greasy, and the smash sauce is basically mustard with pickles, which wasn't palatable. The best thing about my meal was the Oreo milkshake. Regarding service, they had one cashier who was responsible for taking orders, bagging said orders, or taking customers who decided to sit in their orders in addition to making milkshakes/drinks. I felt sorry for her. However, she didn't show that she was tired or frustrated. I probably wouldn't visit this establishment again. It has

Well I do enjoy burgers and plenty of places have upped their burger game. As much as it cost for a burger at certain fast food places you might as well hit up some of these other places. The prices are basically the same now. On a few trips to Capital Grille I did go with the burger and so I decided to check out its affiliate Capital Burger. Capital Burger actually has more burger options to choose for over Capital Grille and a more slimmed down menu. Still with the name burger in its name, you know where their focus is. I went with the bacon cheeseburger that comes with candied smoke bacon that came at $22 with your chose of sides (fries or various salads). It was cooked to the perfect medium rare and you can tell when a burger is cooked with better ingredients and cooked with a give a damn. It was not thrown together, and the fries were not just sitting under a heating lamp. I actually ordered a to go burger for the spouse. Here is where customer service comes in. I was asked how far I had to travel and the person taking my order said she will separate portions so it will travel better. Thank you. It is that little extra that goes a long way. This time I went with the Capital Burger to go along with some key lime pie to nibble on later. Great service and great food. There are plenty of good burger places but if you are a burger fan then definitely check this place out. Absolutely no disappointment. For a true high end burger experience I have no problem giving this place a solid five stars.

It only took a quick 10 minutes to receive our entire order, which was 3 burgers, a crispy fried chicken sandwich, loaded fries, and 2 milkshakes! I was very happy with how efficient the service was and the most important part, how delicious every bite was! The smashburgers are made with 100% halal beef and they come out HOT with perfectly crispy edges on the patties and a juicy center. We ordered 3 burgers and each of them stood out in their own way. You can get a single, double, or triple patty burger and add whatever toppings to it too. The jalapeño burger was the star of the show, it had a such a nice and spicy kick to it. I wasn't expecting much but this burger had HEAT! Another favorite was the Juicy Lucy. It was packed with grilled onions and the patty was stuffed with cheddar cheese. A super messy and cheesy option that was definitely worth every bite! I liked that Jon's Joint offered other options too such as loaded fries and fried chicken sandwiches. What I found unique is that for the loaded fries, you can get it with falafel and make it spicy! This time, they had run out of the falafel so I am excited to try it next time. If you're in Arlington and craving a casual burger spot, you need to go to Jon's Joint. You'll get quick service and a delicious meal!

I've NEVER been at a restaurant that didn't have any pepper. Plenty of salt, seasoned salt and even more salt. No pepper. Burgers seem to be popular. Wasn't very crowded, but seemed popular by locals. It was a "meh" for me. I do however really like that the food is cooked to order.

I had ordered Wise Guys on Uber Eats, and this showed up instead and I am SO glad it did. Whoever originally ordered this got a bacon jalapeño burger and a spicy chicken deluxe. The jalapeño burger was a 10/10. I'm not even big on peppers, but it had the perfect amount of jalapeños, great flavor, and was just really well done. I passed that one to my friend, and I took the chicken sandwich. The spicy chicken deluxe was incredible. Perfectly crispy, great sauce, and I'm pretty sure it had bacon on it, which just took it over the top. Everything worked together so well, and I was honestly upset that I hadn't known about this place sooner. The fries were also really good, crispy and plentiful. They remind me of Five Guys fries, but honestly? This felt like a better version of Five Guys overall. I don't even know what the price was, but I can confidently say I would pay good money for both the smash burger and especially that chicken sandwich again. The best part? This place isn't even far from my house, so this is officially my new burger spot. Sorry to whoever lost their order,but thank you for putting me on. I'll definitely be back.

You can't go wrong with a burger of Chicken Sandwich but I'd prioritize the Chicken Sandwich over the burger for sure. It was seasoned really well and the nice crunch and was tender and juicy. The service was decent and did a great job handling the slight rush of folks getting food before the show. It didn't feel like we waiting long at all for our food but it was hot and fresh. The inside was very regular not special at all, and kept decently clean.
