I feel bad giving this place 1 star as the establishment Itself wasnt too bad. The venue was decent and it looked presentable and clean for a burger joint. The awful part happened to be the burgers. I tried my burger and my friends burger and both were extremely greasy. After taking each bite I would have to sit the burger down and use a napkin to rid my fingers of nasty grease. I have read reviews in which Smashburger is praised for how greasy their food is so this review is subjective however I will not be subjected to their food again. I like a burger that has flavor and is moist however grease dripping from between the buns isnt appetizing. Some things in life are good when they are a little greasy such as pizza and bacon but this burger had so much grease it made my stomach hurt after eating half, which is where I made a good decision and stopped eating it. I am not one to write reviews and while I can critique food I almost certainly will eat just about anything but never again for Smashburger.

FIrst time at Smashburger, went there before the UK game, the service was fast even with a lot of other fans were coming in to eat before the game, I was guess I was comparing the place to 5 guys , The set up is nicer and the fact that they actually bring your food to the table is a step up from that restaurant. I had a cheese burger and fried peppers. My son had the bean burger and fries. The burgers were good and the fries good also, overall there was nothing that made the lunch memorable, at 10 bucks for a burger and fries ( we drank water ) it has the same price as most sit down places.

Ashley waited on us and Elijah took care of us too! Food is made to order, so always hot and fresh and good. The smash fries are amazing and like no others anywhere .... I dont eat red meat so always get the chickecn, but order with the normal bun as the wheat buns are not that great .... but from the time we got there til we left, Ashley and Elijah were great hostess and host to us. Made the experience memorable and we will be back.

Burgers were decent, fries were cold and took 30+ minutes for food to arrive. Looked short staffed. 75% of tables were covered in garbage. People in line behind us actually fell asleep waiting for their food. Ive been to Smash at my hometown in VA and its never been so awful. When we left line was 10+ people long. Had 1 person doing register, table cleaning (or lack of), making milkshakes, and delievering orders.

My daughter and I are Smashburger fans, but tonight we were beyond disappointed. We had our food to go so when we got home we were ready to "smash" unfortunately our burgers were salted way to much they burnt our tongues, you couldnt even taste any flavor but salt. This was by far my worst experience here. Cook definitely needs to be retrained, the presentation of the burger was horrible as well.

My friends and I visit often. The food is pretty good and so are the shakes. They also have Ale8 on tap, which is a big draw for me. A friend of mine has to eat gluten free food and they offer a bun that fits that requirement. He says theyre pretty good too. I would be giving them 5 stars if not for the fact that my order is always incorrect when I carryout but only when ordering carryout.

Burgers there tend to be large and quite messy which isnt a problem I just figured I should counter the "not enough food" reviews on here. The burgers are pretty consistently good but the fries are a bit weak in my opinion. Service there is always been pretty stellar as well. Can be a tad pricey particularly for poor college kids (and poor college adults).

Some of the best burgers in town. Im a cheapskate so I dont love paying $7 for a burger, but it really is tasty. Ive heard great things about their chicken sandwiches too. Take advantage of the free side on your receipt by filling out the survey!

I give four stars because the staff was awesome. One member overheard my son saying that he didnt like honey mustard. The staff member came to our table and asked what else he could bring. Burgers are good, but Im not sure its worth the price.

GREAT burgers! but they are so big! I can never eat a whole one, so its like getting two meals, I cut mine in half before I even start and take the rest home for lunch the next day. Sweet potato fries - YUM!

Was looking forward to a good burger but the business was closed at 7:00 pm on a Friday night with a note that read closed due to weather. It was raining heavily but no reason to close. Very disappointed.

Always great service, especially from the manager (James, I believe) The food is always quickly prepared and tasty! Cant go wrong with a black bean burger and sweet potato smash fries!

Ordered an Oreo Shake online and picked it up; good quality as usual. Online ordering was quite straightforward. Service was quite speedy and servers were courteous.

Good hamburgers and fries. Every time Ive been there they were friendly and fast to get food out to you. Only down side is it can be a bit pricey.

People recommended it as very good hamburger. I find it just ok. Pictures make it looks bigger than it is. And the Burges are pricey too.

Burgers are great, they offer military discount with ID @ 10%, Good shoestring fries. Also have a rewards program thats pretty good.

Ive been eating at Smash Burger for a few years now. Best faster-food burger Ive had. The sweet potato fries are great as well.

The fries are delish! The chicken sandwich was a bit over cooked but over all great service and its worth giving a try!

The food is decent but not worth the price. If they gave you twice as much food I would go every now and then.

All kinds of good burger combinations, and smash fries are the bomb. Good place to grab a burger and a beer.

way too expensive, for $12 someone better take my order, bring my food and drink and clean my table after.

The burgers are oily (not greasy. Oily.) and the only thing worth eating on the menu is the fried pickles.

My favorite, affordable burger joint in Lexington. And the PB&J malt is worth the stop all by itself :-)
