I don’t usually care about fries but these were actually so good. Like… unexpectedly elite.
Menu is refreshingly simple: Simple or Double. That’s it. No overthinking, no nonsense. One burger is genuinely filling (which is rare for NYC).
Great price for New York, ketchup is provided (I would appreciate more options), and they give you free stickers, which automatically bumps the vibe.
Solid 8/10 for me — would absolutely go back.

So good i had two!. Got the double smash with the special sauce and it was DELICIOUS, cheese melts good and its creamy. The restaurant is nice and small come in pick up your order and leave. There is standing room but i got it to go. This is a great burger spot to test out and currently at $6.99 its the best deal around. I recommend coming here, you will enjoy!

I can’t remember the last time I enjoyed a burger this much
Absurdly good price.
Double smash fries and special Coke for under $15. That is not a typo.
Quick and friendly service. Unbelievably tasty. Perfect portion size.
The kind of place that will make you wonder why you haven’t been yet. ✨

Okay, I loved the food here! I happened to just discover this place on accident, looking up nearby spots to eat by Irving Plaza as I went to a show there later. I liked how affordable the food was. I tried the single burger but wish I had the double! It was very flavorful, and the cheese was perfectly melted. The fries were amazing too, nice & crispy! The service was super fast & friendly; they had everything ready to go. I would definitely recommend this place for a quick bite!

The menu is very limited and simple; you are in the perfect spot if you are craving a burger and fries.
The order was ready within seconds; it was identical to the scene with Ray Kroc (Michael Keaton) receiving his bagged meal in The Founder.
Although the burger has a scrawny appearance, it was very tasty. I was a huge fan of their secret sauce.
The fries are also a hit; the seasonings add a terrific flavor.
Regrettably, the seating area is not the greatest. It is a narrow hallway with minimal standing room; I recommend getting your order to go.
During my visit, the cashier never gave me a paper receipt and I found out I was overcharged. (When I reached out to management the following day, I was promptly refunded.)
Overall, the food was great, but the seating and customer service needs improvement.

One of the best smash burgers I have ever tried. The place have no chairs or tables, that can be a problem in a rainy days for example. The staff was ok, probably tired in the end of the day, but nothing wrong happened. You should try this if you are in New York!

Best affordable burgers in nyc, I enjoyed the double cheeseburger with the house sauce. There are two different sauces to choose from the house sauce which is their mayo based sauce and classic ketchup & mustard.
I’d reccomend getting the double since its perfect bread to meat ratio if you want to get full! Be sure to get extra hs on the side!
*Even better its customizable for people with dietary restrictions if you don’t like or want something you can take it out*

The menu is very limited and super affordable. You can have a meal for 2 for less than $30 which is unheard of now a days in NYC. Some burger places will charge you $30 for just one person. Is it the best burger? No. But is it the best affordable burger? Yes

This is smashburger value and quality at it’s finest. They serve up super solid classic smash burgers—and quick. Quicker than when Lucifer fell from heaven. The fries are super solid as well—shaped like Mciddys fries, but with real substance, actual crisp, and leagues better. The smashburger sauce though… I could bathe in it.

I spotted this place a couple of months ago and finally had the opportunity to taste it. The burger is absolutely delicious, so well seasoned, so tasty. Do yourself a favor and ask for the house burger, it comes with an amazing sauce that taste like Mac sauce. The order was ready in less than 5 minutes. Fries were also deliciously seasoned and they serve you a lot. Prices are very affordable compare to other smash burgers. This places has been added to my favorite smash burgers in NYC. Note there is no place to sit, so is grab and go, or eat standing.
