The star of the show at fast-casual joint Smashburger is
each succulent burger, which is fashioned with all-natural 100 percent
USDA-certified Angus beef and embroiled on a flattop grill. Grab plenty of
napkins, because this dining experience is a juicy proposition!
Among the 10 burgers offered, standouts are the Spicy Jalapeño Baja
with guacamole, pepper jack cheese and chipotle mayo; the Truffle Mushroom
Swiss with sautéed Crimini mushrooms; and the BBQ Bacon & Cheddar with BBQ
sauce, applewood smoked bacon and haystack onions. My favorite? The Carolina
Chili involving beefy chili, American cheese, chopped yellow onion, Duke’s mayo
and creamy coleslaw on a pretzel bun.Consider eating it with a fork so you don't stain your shirt.

Not in the mood for a burger? Consider
a Spinach, Cucumber & Goat Cheese chicken sandwich or a sizeable Classic
Cobb salad with blue cheese, sharp cheddar, fried egg, applewood smoked bacon,
tomatoes and onion with buttermilk ranch dressing.
Side items worth consideration include
crispy fried pickle chips; flash-fried green bean and carrot veggie frites; and
sweet potato fries. House specialty smashfries are tossed in Italian olive oil,
rosemary and garlic, but these are a bit too heavy on the rosemary for my
taste.
Save room for dessert, as hand-spun
milkshakes fashioned with Häagen-Dazs ice cream are worth the caloric splurge.
Whether you choose rich chocolate, Oreo or peanut butter & jelly, you’ll be
rewarded with plenty of creamy goodness. For something decidedly different,
order the sweet and savory salted caramel.
