    I love the name of the items.  I had the Quickie.

    Delicious food! I had the "Quickie" (I love the names of their food. ) and an order of fries. Everything was so fresh and hot that I had to allow it to cool a little. The service was great! The lady behind the counter was very helpful and patient. This my first place in a food hub and was impressed at how nice the inside looks. They have nice tables and it simply felt cozy.

    Yummy Smashburger in SCV! I loved how the meat patties were perfectly crispy and still juicy! The bun was soft and warm. I would definitely order this "Quickie" burger again.

    DELICIOUS burgers! The meat, cheese and buns they use are honestly perfect. They use fresh ingredients so any combination of burger you order will be a hit. My only complaints are that their fries and sauces are mediocre; nothing special at all & they don't offer the choice of ranch but the burgers alone make it worth it to come back.

    I got a Quickie burger and it was pretty good. I didn't wait too long and the staff member was super friendly. The fries were great, but the only thing I wish is that the burger had more seasoning. Inside, it is a food hall but there wasn't a lot of seating so keep that in mind if you have a big party of people. Overall I definitely recommend.

    *October 2025-Initially, I had a difficult time finding this place. Apple Maps showed the location, but there were no large signs outside. I eventually realized that Wanna Smash operates out of a virtual kitchen shared with several other "restaurants" offering a wide variety of food. Against my better judgment, I ordered two single-patty burger meals with fries and drinks for $40, which felt steep. After about 25 minutes, our food was brought out. We ate at a picnic table in the middle of an otherwise empty space, watching several people come in looking confused, asking how to order and how the whole setup worked. One couple took a pizza to go, but the other people left without ordering. The three employees I saw running things were genuinely friendly, and I'd give them 5 stars if I could rate them separately. Unfortunately, the food itself was uninspired. The burgers were served on generic store-brand buns with equally generic shoestring fries. There is nothing wrong with store-brand food, as that is exactly what I buy for home when I am trying to stretch my budget. When I go out to eat, though, I expect something more, especially when the total comes closer to $50 for two people. The meat was indeed smashed and not terrible, but overall it was something I easily could have made at home for far less money, and faster. I could be wrong but it appears that this "virtual kitchen," which also serves teriyaki, sushi, Italian and Indian food, is just trying to be too many things at once and it shows. ***Edited to add: After the owner's reply, I want to say that I do understand there are real people behind the scenes trying to make a living. With the cost of everything going up, I admit I can get grumpy when something feels expensive, and that definitely colored my reaction. I appreciate you taking the time to respond so quickly. Sometimes hearing the rest of the story really does give perspective. I should also add that my adult daughter absolutely loved her meal, the food was served hot, and the people working there were warm and patient. The virtual kitchen concept is new to me, and that unfamiliarity likely added to the confusion. Seeing that there is someone behind this who clearly cares makes me open to giving it another try in the future

So we settled for this American Burger chain. Pretty big store that felt modern and welcoming. The layout was great and we didn't feel lost at all from start to finish. We were in town because of a friend's play, and it was nice that it was right next door too. I got the Onion Stack Burger. The patty was well seasoned and the crispy onion strings gave it a wonderfully textured bite. Hickory sauce was tasty and the fries were crispy and well seasoned. I asked for ketchup on the side and I don't know why but cold, refrigerated ketchup always taste the best. I had to drop a star because the service was lacking a little. The worker was nice and responsive but we had to wait quite a bit as I think he was talking to a friend when we got there. He noticed we were in line but they were just having a conversation unrelated to the burger joint. She left the spot after 5-ish minutes and we were greeted pretty carefree following that. He also forgot to give us our number which we had to go back for. Anyhow, the food was great, and the ambiance was great. I'd definitely recommend a try if you can't think of what to eat while shopping/waiting at the mall.

We both agree that the burgers lacked basic salt or some type of seasoning. Plus, others have mentioned the frozen patty thing. OK, owner, don't get defensive, even if your burger meat is fresh and not frozen, they are hard and tasteless. Not sure if the owner ( only guy running the place ) is willing to take constructive criticism but if you're not getting repeat customers, you know why! Two people, simple burgers, one fry and one drink and it was almost $40 (included tip) Good luck Wanted Grill, get help in the kitchen or move to a Food Truck and good luck with the business in these times, there is potential with that place!

I thought that it was a great addition to our night, ontop of the food we got. Maria was our server and she checked in on us pretty frequently while we were there!!! Food ratings: Bread plate- Our appetizers. Pretty standard bread with a crust outside and soft inside. It was accompanied with olive dip. Jambalaya- This plate was pretty good but as time went on, the spice began to really build up for me. My spice tolerance is also pretty low. The flavors and the pasta noodles were good but yeah I did feel like there was a good amount of red peppers in my plate. Had some extras for leftovers. Tri-Tip Plate- You can choose what sauce you want with your meat (which can be cooked to your liking). We didn't like how the meat was literally doused in the sweet, tangy BBQ sauce. It was tender but yeah, the sauce felt like too much and it made the plate too sweet somehow. Sundried Tomato Pesto- The linguini noodles were delicious and creamy with the sauce. Good flavored pasta. Pine nuts included!!! Be aware for any allergies. Good portion size, took some home to-go. Spicy Thai pizza- Has peanut sauce and almonds on the dough. It was enjoyed by my friends and they found it pretty tasty. The beers on tap were pretty delicious, some of us ordered another.
