Tanner's does an excellent job executing the smash burger. One of the best I've had! The patty was well seasoned and nice crispy texture. The bacon adds smokiness. The brioche bun is soft and light. It does not dominate the bite like so many bad burgers. And the tallow fries??? Pure ! The fries reminded me of the original MacDonalds fries cooked in beef tallow. But way better execution. Crispy and cooked just enough. The size was perfect. And the salt the used amped the flavor. Super good!!! Overall the food is 5 stars. The overall setting is perfect for burgers. Everything is open air so the place stays cool on a hot day. Lots of seating. Service was efficient. In this place moving quickly and turning tables is a must to keep the line moving. Overall 4 stars for setting. I must warn you there are lines. You will wait. And when it is sunny it gets brutal right before you enter the ordering area. There are umbrellas so use one if you don't want to get burnt. And the parking is good if you ride your bike. But there are places to park in the neighborhood. I will be back. The burger and fries are too good not to!!! PS Try their house lager . Just a great example of the brew and perfect for hot days.

The burgers were phenomenal! The blue cheese was sooo good! The truffle burger was incredible! I thought the Better Mac would have been my favorite, and it was still good, but surprisingly, it wasn't my fave over the three. The chicken sandwiches are HUGE but I wished the tenders were tossed in the sauce/seasoning. They add the garlic parm on top of the tenders as they're assembled on top of the bun, so it doesn't completely coat the tender. IMO, it would be more flavorful tossed. However, the aioli sauces are just so delicious and to kill for! Even though this is also a smash burger leave, their burgers aren't thin and had a lot of bite to them! They're so worth it and hands down much better than across the street!

Headed there and greeted by a nice gentleman who sat us right away. Service was good! However foods weren't as good their choices didn't include what we had in mind but we decided to give it a try. We ordered deviled eggs for appetizer, which is actually the best among all our orders. Although the bacon bits were rubbery, we liked how the eggs were "deviled"; fish and chips didn't make the cut either. Fish was heavily battered so imagine how small the fish portion came out. The chips aren't chips but crisscut fries that are dry. Teres Major steak was perfectly cooked medium rare, good quality of course, but even with the chimichurri sauce, it still didn't taste good. It was a disappointment so I would say we were full but not satisfied.

First timer here! Came on a Saturday evening and there was about a 15 to 20 minute wait. It…read moreactually went pretty quick to be honest. We sat downstairs in a table, booth combo. Our waiter was pretty cool, although his name is escaping me now. We ordered a few appetizers, wings, steak taquitos, and the pretzel. We noshed on these before we ordered our meals of bison burger, and two single patty smash burgers. Not sure if it's because it was around 7:30/8 o'clock at night, but the food was not up to par according to the two that I was with, who frequent this place. The steak taquitos tasted a tad overdone, but still pretty good since it was the first time I've had them. The pretzel was really good, but the dipping sauces not so good. I still cannot figure out why one of them was a hot caramel sauce. I have never put caramel on my pretzel and it tasted like crap to be honest. The queso must've been the bottom of the pot because it was hard and kind of burnt tasting, so pretty disappointed in the pretzel choice. Our meals came and honest to God the Smashburger looked like a kids meal. This tiny burger plopped on a big white plate with onion rings, and the burger was not good. The bison burger did not have any of the sauces on it that it stated in the menu so he needed to ask for some love on the burger. So the waiter brought over a bunch of sauces. It's a shame because they talk about this place all the time and I really wanted to try it and it just wasn't up to par. I ended up taking my Smashburger home, and the next day I scraped the nasty sauce off it, added mayonnaise to the bun and an extra slice of cheese and it was actually pretty good. I definitely wanna come again because they talk about this place all the time and how good the food is. Maybe it was just the night we went.

I'm sure there's a reason, but the burger was still great and it's still on my list for one of the good ones down here. Update, the owner who's a wonderful woman told me the reason that there is no inside dining is a city issue not her choice.

I instantly set a reservation (didn't really need it) and we arrived around 4pm on a Tuesday and sat on the patio. Happy hour is daily from 4-6pm and if you sit on the recently renovated patio, drinks are 50% off. I ordered the Ribeye as my birthday entree and we also ordered the Fried Zucchini ($7), Popcorn Chicken ($9), Guajillo Braised Pork Shoulder ($21) and several cocktails ($7 each during HH). Everything was great honestly. No complaints. My wife REALLY loved the braised pork shoulder. My steak was excellent and even though it was free, $32 for a ribeye is the lowest you'll find anywhere.
