Things I Love Thursday: Smashburger

Disclosure: I was given a free meal at a local Smashburger. I was not asked to blog about the experience, or to even tell you what I thought. I am just doing so because I want to. These opinions are my own.

A few weeks ago a Smashburger opened near us and I got invited to a special grand opening event BEFORE the restaurant even opened. I was so excited and my husband was incredibly jealous. So I did what any good wife would do, I got him invited too!

At any rate, I had never eaten at a Smashburger and wasn’t sure what to expect. I wasn’t disappointed though. Myself, my mom and the two kids (18 months and 2 months mind you) went for the event. The staff was so incredibly helpful and caring. They did a great job of serving us and helping us to find things that we wanted. And that is no easy feat with an 18 month old!

I loved the burger! Hubby says there is another burger chain that he likes better, but not me. I prefer the Smashburger. I loved the seasoning and the way it was cooked (probably in lots of grease, I know). I also liked that I could get quacamole on my burger. Yum!

Tessa wanted a milkshake but I insisted she stick with formula!

They even have super good milkshakes! They are made from real Haagen Dazs ice cream. Like, not from a machine milkshakes but mixed when you order them milkshakes! People, I have managed at a restaurant chain in the past, this IS impressive!

It was a great experience. The only down side is that I have been craving one ever since!

Have you ever tried Smashburger? What is your favorite burger joint?

    That’s so funny, a Smashburger just opened right next to our mommy Starbucks hangout and we have all been curious to try it one day. Looks like I’m getting myself a burger soon!

    I’ve never heard of Smashburger – but after visiting their site, I’m sure I’d like it. =) I love avacado on hamburger – and I see there are only 2 in my state, but they’re on the way to visiting other family, so we may have to make a point of stopping there on our next trip! Thanks for sharing. (Coming over from TILT!)
