Smash House Burger co - Pasadena, California

I walked out of the spot on a whim and I left really happy! Violet is one of the most amazing impressionable people ever. We need more people working like her in retail and in food establishments.. She’s absolutely personable, down to earth and definitely has every single idea to get compensated big time.!

I made it there before lunch rush and I’m glad that I did cause I heard it was a call before the storm . This place is really great and it’s definitely worth checking out. Don’t take my word for it. They are on point.!

Keep up the great work you guys!

Overall the burger was good but the competition is stiff with smash burgers in LA. The burger also broke apart and wasn’t smashed correctly in all one piece like in other places (see photo attached). Kind of like making a burger at home or something. The meat was also very under seasoned and just kind of bland.

The atmosphere here on a Thursday at 6:30 is very dead and it’s very dark inside. The back patio is nice though. Overall I wouldn’t come back and definitely not travel here to get it. But it was decent fuel after our local hike. Fries are cooked with cotton seed oil (yikes!).

It was ok. I admit it was my first smash burger and I was expecting better...though also it's a clever way to cut back on food costs as the burger is so thin , was curious to think how many ounces of meat are in there -- four? That's my guess. This if course also could be healthier, since you are eating less red meat, and also this way of cooking might offer a more lean patty. The flip side o
f that would be less flavor. And while the classic was small, it def tasted like something you'd get from someone's back yard grill, so that's good. I also got the jalapeno queso, and while that was tasty it was more like a Mexican pizza than a burger. Not that there's anything wrong with that...I really liked the curry ketchup, which is good because the fries were mediocre

First off, the service was great. You order up front and they deliver the food to you.

This restaurant serves smashed burgers, so expect your burger to be a little crispy on the outside. I got a classic cheeseburger and loaded tots and that was just enough food for me. The burger was delicious and the tots were good too but they are HEAVY.

Also, this place is huge! The inside dining area is split into two sections and there’s seating outside too with plenty of parking!

Very good! Came here on a Sunday night and I was surprised that it was a little slow considering that the food was very fresh and great tasting. The burgers were very juicy considering it was a smash burger but still very delicious. The tater tots were very crispy and fresh. The Sriracha mayo and curry ketchup with fries/tator tots went well too. Also there was plenty of seating and it was nice to have food delivered to one’s table. I will definitely come back 🙂

The burgers are great! They're real meat. The fries were crunchy and yummy! The service was on point.

There are games that you can play like giant sized Jinga! There's comfy seating in the second room and a great patio!

This an undiscovered gem!

If you like burgers stop in and you won't be disappointed!!

The restaurant space is very spacious, making it suitable for friends to gather. We ordered a Simple Burger and a Classic Burger; the only difference between the two is the presence of cheese. Their burgers don't come with lettuce or tomato, so they appear smaller than regular burgers – you can finish them in just a few bites. The burger buns have a creamy, fried texture, and the burger patties are crispy due to being smashed, but they're thin, which makes them look visually smaller.

餐廳空間非常大，很適合朋友們聚會。點了一個Simple burger 跟 classic burger，兩個的差別只在於有沒有起司而已。他們的漢堡都沒有付生菜跟番茄，所以看起來份量比一般的漢堡還要小，大概三五口就可以吃完了。漢堡的麵包可以吃出來用奶油煎過，漢堡肉也煎的焦脆，只是因為smash過後，變得很薄，視覺上份量看起來就比較小。
