Wanna Smash popped up locally to me. So I checked it out…read more So here's the deal. Are smash burgers popping up all over? Yes. This is the new Nashville chicken wave. Do smash burgers re-invent the wheel when it comes to burgers? Not really. While they are good in their own right. They are just a greasy, crispy burger packed with flavor. With that said Wanna Smash checks off all smash burgers qualities. Tasty and crispy. They do be hitting the marks well. Do they bring anything new? No not really. Their Yum Yum sauce is great. I think being a little sweeter than others makes it unique. Its a has a smokey / paprika flavor. Pairs well. I got the fries and Hot n Heavy added another patty. Jalapenos were not grilled but I would have been great if they were. Tasty burger. On point. And local to me. Now I do not need to venture out to any of the other smash spots. Burger + Fries are $15. Keep in mind these are single patty burgers. Extra patty is $3.

My fav is double smash with grilled onions, my husband loves the jalapeño smash and kids get it with light sauce and no pickles. PS they do cheese fries for the kiddos too. Even though it's an outdoor vendor, it's always clean and well-run. We've never had a single issue, which says a lot with how often we come. The guys working there don't speak a lot of English but it's not hard to order burgers. Reliable, consistently delicious, and definitely a neighborhood favorite.

We always pass by this stand and typically grab tacos from the stand next to them for years now…read more This smash burger stand only recently popped up and we finally decided to try it last night! We were the only ones here, super friendly staff and they take your order from the side of their stand since the front is too close to the street. They are in front of the Target along Balboa and across from the Trader Joe's. They don't have any seating so I'm sure most people either take it home, eat in their car, or don't mind standing and eating. Ordered easily, menu was simple to read, and for the price - fantastic! They made our food super quick too! Luckily we live close so by the time we got home, everything was still fresh and yummy! We got a single and double smash burger with a side of fries and extra smash sauce. We also added grilled onions because that's a definite must ANYwhere! This is actually the first smash burger place where I found the smash sauce to be a bit spicy. It had a bit of a kick that builds up but otherwise tolerable. I ended up adding a bit of honey to the remainder of my burger to battle the heat lol. Super good overall and the burgers and even the fries (not my usual cut style) were so perfectly cooked! Soft buns and everything. Highly recommend and definitely looking forward to coming back. IG: @ammysalamii

I just wish they were closer to me because I still haven't had the pleasure of trying their specialty knafehs!

The kitchen is a home kitchen with a house keeper washing the dishes by hand. It is a help yourself type of situation. BYOB and pour it yourself. There is a total of 16 seats per night. 6 of us in our reservation. They dim the place for the ambience. Food wise - Total of 7 courses - last 2 was the dessert. There is no printed menu, so you'll just have to ask what it is that you're eating and why the main course -steak- was served first. We were asked to keep the utensils through out the course as they do not change your silverware for every course. Cringe. I had such a high expectation with the food prior to dinner. It felt flat - Everything. The only thing that we like was the corn bread. The steak was tough - some us got super rare and some got overly done tough. Some flavor combination just didn't pair well. Something with a fish dish but sour like hell. Another dish was blue and it just did not look a dish coming out of a fine dining restaurant. Funny the people that were there was talking about Somni, Providence, Melisse.... It just did not even come close. It's like going to a friend's house who's practicing to be a fine dining chef. Pics of the food is posted in this review. None of them was impressive. It just did not go well together. When it came to the 7th course - it was a shaved ice. The Asian assitant cook brought them over and said it's Mandarin ice. So we asked, can you give us a little bit more description... his response was so rude that he said "it's ice with mandarin orange flavor". Oh ok - now you say mandarin oranges. But his condescending attitude is not appreciated. The night is ending and the Chef has not once come to the table to say Hi or introduced himself. People started to leave and he decided to speak to some remaining guests. Then he gets stuck with that particular guest for a long time until everyone is leaving. We probably just had like a Hi and Hello thank you for the food. He seems nice though. Then we all left. We clearly didn't even care anymore at that point. Bad food and bad experience. No parking. Good luck finding a parking on the streets on fountain and Vermont with all the homeless around. It's a hype. It's mysterious because it's really not listed as a restaurant. Not for everyone.

His two employees were sitting at the only table outside smoking and told me I couldn't take my dog inside and wouldn't give up the table. So I left and went next door to Daniel's taco and spent my money. By the way, no one was manning the order counter, no one was inside, no one was coming and they literally drove me off with my dog when they were taking up the only patio seating smoking and could have made the sale. You have two employees who are rude and doing more to lose you money than make you money. Obviously your location is suffering, so why are you turning away business you easily could have accommodated. Rude.
