My new favorite Burger.

My new Ladyfriend took me there for lunch today.

I had the Spicy Baja, with Sweet Potato fries.

High Quality Beef.

Smashburger is not bad. Basically what you'd get at a sit down restaurant in a quick service. Kind of pricey.

One thing I don't recommend is the olive oil fries, whatever they are called. Not so great. The burgers are good. It's like a quicker Red Robin (but without the expansive menu)

Hey, Keg, you ever try the Philly Cheese Steak from PepperJax (135th and Metcalf, same plaza as Jimmy John's)? I'm addicted to those damn things.

Culver's is down there, you don't need any of those other joints!

I like the Olive Oil fries, I believe they are called Smashfries. As long as you get them fresh and don't take them home they are great.

I still would rather have a double at Freddy's, but Smashburger is decent enough.

Blanc Burgers and Bottles is a pretty decent burger. And their onion rings are the shiznit....

I actually went to Culver's on Sunday night for the first time ever. I'm not a huge fan of the pancaked burgers. WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT? That's why I like Five Guys, their shit is so thick and juicy.

I'm not much of a cheesesteak guy.

I haven't been to Quiznos for a long time. Used to like that place, too.

It must be a regional deal then. Im way up in NY so it might be better in MO. My main gripes are that for taht much money, the burgers really should be bigger. Service up here is non-existent, and for some reason its damn near impossible to get even 1 refill on the fries. Maybe I should go when it isn't a busy period,I know that the IHOP up here is the worst breakfast place around here, and that is really saying something. IHOP off of I-70 in Independence was always good, but up here its like a ghost town.

I think that particular restaurant is just under poor management.

4 yrs ago, Quiznos was the shit. They suck now.

Must be. I never went to Red Robin in MO because BackYardBurgers was so much closer to where I lived.

Dang, that's too bad. I would literally eat PepperJax every day if I didn't give a damn about my body/health.

I've never had Culvers, so I cant comment, but I've had 5 guys. Smashburger's patties are just as thick as 5 Guys.

I've been to the one on 119th and Glenwood (by Starbucks) twice and it just didn't do it for me, man. I don't know.

I really want the Resist Temptation from So Long.

I'd imagine there are going to be subtle differences in these places across the country.
