    Classic SMASHED
    Ashley J.

    I feel like every other block there is a new smash burger spot popping up in the city. Union square just recently opened Smashy around the same time that Smashed opened on Third Ave and they aren't that far from each other (meanwhile multiple others already exist nearby in EV...) Felt like the inside itself was clean and it is nice that they have actual tables to sit at. They cooked the burgers pretty quickly and it was indeed very "smashed" and flat. Burger had a lot of flavor and I liked the sauce. They have a lot of fry options - I opted to try the onion rings. They were OK, nothing special and I didn't love the ketchup they had. I think it was just water soda and milkshakes offered. (No alcohol) Price point was decent - the lunch special from 12-3 M-F is actually a great deal.

    HUGE for the price. Definitely fulfilled the craving. I wouldn't say it beats 7th street but it's a great option around union square. There's also smashy and popburger near by but I haven't tried them. Absolutely LOVED the sweet potato fries. Highly recommend! Service was fast and inside was clean. they had free candy at the ordering desk too haha.

    Visited this spot during Pride because the food street was way too chaotic and expensive. Love the quick, convenience of this burger spot and the smashburgers were actually quite delicious! I would definitely stop here again if I was in the area and needed a quick lunch.

    I was here a while ago. They weren't that crowded and the guy in front was nice. Compared to other smash burger places, Smashed or rather SMASHED offers a few more options in terms of toppings. I went with the Double Oklahoma Burger consisting of two beef patties, thinly sliced grilled onions, American cheese, and SMASHED sauce on a Martin's roll which was $12. Compared to other places, I found the burger a bit messier which was maybe because of the sauce on there. It was meaty but it felt thinner than other spots even with the two different patties so perhaps it's pounded a bit more here which also led to the outside being almost too crispy while the inside was a proper texture. In terms of flavor, it was alright though nothing unique enough. The cheese wasn't super melted either as can be seen. For the price point, I think you get a bit of a better deal at the newer Smashy next to Union Square let alone the same price at the various 7th Streets and for flavor, it doesn't really compare to the best; Gotham Burger Social Club. Sorry for not echoing the four review train (and not matching the closest subway.) Decent spot.

    There's lots of smash burger options around these days, but I still go to this one because I find their beef to be of better quality.

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!

The flavor was great and it was just enough to fill me. The fish and chips were very delicious. The batter was nice and fluffy and the fish was huge. We loved the French onion soup, it had great flavor and the cheese on top made it so amazing! everything came out hot and delicious. We got there pretty early and I wish that we had gone on a day they had breakfast. The breakfast photos caught my eye. After we paid and gave our 20% auto gratuity, our waiter Jose asked if we wanted to leave additional gratuity. Our tip was already $25 and I was actually surprised he asked for more. We declined and left. Out of my whole entire trip this was the only restaurant that asked for more than the 20%. I found it rather odd. My review is based off the food itself.

    Update: After my…read moreoriginal review, I was contact with management and they really helped to turn things around. He took the time to listen to our concerns and invited our group back so we could give their group another chance. While I still stand by how our initial experience made us feel, I also think it's important to acknowledge when a business owner responds with professionalism and genuinely works to rebuild trust. Our return visit was a completely different experience. I appreciate the way the owner handled the situation and his willingness to have an open conversation with us. It doesn't change what happened that first night, but it did change my impression of how much he cares about his guests and his business. I wanted my review to reflect that as well.

There was a wonderful bartender and waiter (both from Ireland) working the night that we went. They were both delightfully witty. Playful banter with one another and with the customers which made our experience quite entertaining. Burgers and fries were DELICIOUS.

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.
