With the departure of Irregular Smash (which was my personal favorite smash burger), I've been on…read morethe hunt for a new smash burger joint I can call home. Smash Dunk BRGR has a food truck located within the A La Carte Sodo locale, and I can say, so far, so good. I've only ever had their OG burger, and it did not disappoint. Also, I was not expecting to enjoy the fries as much as I did. Their fries are quite tasty (probably the highlight of my entire meal)! I am curious to try their Rebounder burger with the pancake buns, to see if it lives up to my high expectations for a sweet & salty burger mix. However, until I do, all I can add is that this food truck is good. I wouldn't say they would be my new "smash burger" home; they are a solid spot to visit if I am ever craving one. Also, it helps that they are at A La Carte, so there are other food trucks as well as a brewery attached. So, it's plenty to do and indulge in. As far as other things go, there is a decent amount of parking. They have more than enough seating indoors and outdoors. They do get busy at this location, depending on the day of the week and the timeframe you are there. It is a family-friendly place, so sometimes it can get pretty lively. They have TVs to view the game(s) if you need/want to. The brewery has a solid and I mean solid collection of beers and ciders on tap as well as canned. Service is always exceptional for the brewery alongside the food trucks I've visited. I have not been to all of them, but all my experiences with the ones I've visited, like Smash Dunk BRGR, have all been pretty good. Finally, as far as pricing goes, they are a bit pricey. So, that is probably the one downside, but hey, you can always eat cheaply by just eating sides.

Me and a few friends met for lunch the World Cup on multiple TV's as we sat talked and had a great meal. The ambience was friendly,clean, and perfect. Based on the Staff recommendations we had the Blue Cheese, brisket, and Bacon Burgers. We also got the burger loaded fries and some wings with the Brave sauce. Everything was fantastic the Brisket & Bacon burger were the stand outs, fries were really good however (and this is why it's a 4 not a 5), the fries were supposed to be the star. They were beef tallow fries and I may have let my expectations get too high. I had some fries aka chips in England at the Borough Market, they were fried in the beef grease from the hamburgers that were made daily. Best fries I've ever had in my life. These were good fries, but not what I hoped for. Go in expecting good fries, but that's all they are. Overall this was amazing with really great burgers and we will be back again!!

This reads less like a sincere tribute to Native American history and more like a marketing…read moredepartment's fantasy of what Native American history looks like. The opening paragraph is historically simplistic to the point of being misleading. Thousands of years of Indigenous history across two continents are compressed into a cartoon narrative about tribes "taking over" America and earning their place through bravery. Entire civilizations, languages, governments, trade networks, spiritual traditions, agricultural innovations, and cultural achievements are reduced to a generic story about warriors and conquest. The text repeatedly treats hundreds of distinct Indigenous nations as if they were a single culture with a shared identity and experience. The Apaches, Cherokees, Navajos, Cheyennes, and countless others are mentioned almost as decorative references before being blended into one vague idea of "the Indian." Modern scholarship, Indigenous historians, and Native communities themselves have spent decades pushing back against exactly this kind of flattening of Native identity. The deeper problem is that Native Americans appear to function here primarily as a branding tool. Indigenous peoples are introduced, their history is briefly summarized, and then the narrative immediately pivots to selling hamburgers. The text essentially argues that because Native Americans were brave, a burger restaurant can inherit that "warrior spirit" and use it as a brand identity. That connection is so weak that it borders on absurd. The repeated use of terms like "warrior spirit," "warrior cooks," and "bravery" relies on some of the oldest and most overused stereotypes applied to Native Americans. It presents Indigenous peoples primarily as warriors, hunters, and tribal figures rather than as diverse, living communities with rich and evolving cultures. While courage and resilience are certainly part of many Indigenous histories, reducing entire peoples to warrior symbolism is not respect--it is stereotype. What makes this especially concerning is that there appears to be no meaningful connection between the brand and Native communities. Is the business Native-owned? Does it partner with Native organizations? Does it support Indigenous causes? Were Native people consulted in developing the brand? Is there any authentic Indigenous influence on the menu, recipes, sourcing, or business mission? The text offers no indication of any such relationship. Instead, it appears to borrow Indigenous identity, imagery, and symbolism while giving little back to the people whose cultures it claims to celebrate. As a result, the branding can feel less like appreciation and more like appropriation. Native American history becomes a backdrop, an aesthetic, and a source of marketing language rather than something treated with care, accuracy, or depth. The story invokes Indigenous peoples not to educate customers about them, but to create an atmosphere of toughness, adventure, and authenticity around a burger. From a branding perspective, the concept is surprisingly self-defeating. The story spends so much time romanticizing a vague and stereotypical version of Native American history that it never establishes a convincing reason why any of this relates to hamburgers in the first place. The connection feels forced, contrived, and ultimately unbelievable. Rather than strengthening the brand, it raises questions about why Indigenous identity was chosen as the foundation of the business at all. If the goal was to honor Native Americans, the brand should begin with historical accuracy, specificity, genuine relationships, and respect for the diversity of Indigenous cultures. Instead, it presents a romanticized and commercialized version of Native history that exists primarily to make a hamburger sound more exciting. Ultimately, the most difficult question this brand story fails to answer is also the most important one: Why are Native Americans central to the identity of this restaurant? If the answer is simply that concepts like bravery, warriors, and tribal imagery make for compelling marketing, then the brand is not truly celebrating Indigenous cultures--it is using them. That distinction matters, and it is why many readers may find this narrative not only historically questionable, but deeply inappropriate as the foundation of a modern business.
