    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.

    1st time killing a burger at Smashburger ! Crispy/Hot Tater Tots BBQ Bacon Cheddar Double Easy to locate near Chinatown. Staff extremely friendly and service was outstanding !

    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

    Smashburger is a neat place located in the downtown area. The staff is extremely friendly. The fries are crispy, and the burger is tasty.

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.

First off, after navigating to this location I got to the door and didn't realize it's a mobile order only location. It doesn't state that on Google, or Apple Maps! That means you have to scan a QR code on the door, make an account and download the app just to make an order. Very user unfriendly and it took way too long for that whole process. I should at the very least be allowed to order without making an account or from a website but I digress. Or it should have an iPad inside for you to order from like most places do! After that process I got my bowl and it just was not good. The ingredients didn't taste fresh, it just felt like a bowl of slop if I am being honest. I personally don't see myself ordering sweetgreen again for a very long time after this experience. I used to be a big advocate of their bowls but I can't support a location that doesn't even let you order inside at a window or something. I'd say avoid this location and find a different place to eat within DC if you can. It's not worth the time, money or energy for the product you are receiving from my experience.

As we were walking back towards our hotel, we actually were passing here so I chose it for our din din spot. I thought for sure it was going to be packed but luckily it was not. I knew I wanted a burger but was struggling with choosing which one. Hubs knew he wanted the Cheesesteak and knew I wanted fries. I went with the Smokehouse burger. We grabbed a seat and did not wait long for our food to come out. I really enjoyed my burger and scarfed it down! I paid for sauces, which were tiny and super overpriced. Hubs enjoyed his cheesesteak but he prefers meat. I had a bite and thought it was really flavorful and very closely tasting like the real thing. I noticed later this is a chain, which is pretty cool. I think the prices were pretty steep so I might skip on the fries next time. The food could have been warmer as well. Definitely worth a visit and will most likely be back when in DC again.
