text: I wish Yelp had a 1/2 Star system...this is another case where I would have given the joint 3.5 Stars.\n\nI've read a lot of reviews about Smash Burger and wanted to give it a try for myself.  Today was the day.  I ordered the Classic Smash Burger 1/3 lb and a Chicago Dog.\n\nThe woman working at the counter was very friendly.  I ordered it to eat in because I wanted to make sure I tasted it fresh out of the kitchen.  Within 5-6 minutes my order was ready.\n\nI decided to attack the Smash Burger first....I should have chosen the Dog...why?  Because the Beef was piping hot and it burned the hell out of my mouth!  Delicious though, but not awesome.  I could barely taste the special Smash Sauce, so the burger tasted kind of bland.....it was fresh though and the Egg Bun was awesome.\n\nNext I attacked the Chicago Dog.....the toppings and bun were excellent, but the Hot Dog itself wasn't great....just good.  This is where that 1/2 Star comes in again.\n\nAgain, overall I'd rate this place 3.5 Stars.\n\nWill I return?  Yes, but it didn't surpass my beloved In-N-Out as so many reviews have said.
