My stomach hurt after eating here. Why would you have American cheese on a wagyu burger. Conceptually inherently wrong. Or a processed bun. Why would you have good quality meat with fake cheese and a fake bun? The person who took my order was a robot person. read more

As someone who's not a crazy fan of smashburgers, but who DOES enjoy burgers in general... I don't quite get all the hype around some places. Unfortunately, Burger She Wrote is one of them. They're a bit small inside, slightly more (but still not much) outdoor seating, and a very decent smashburger, patty a bit on the thinner side, but didn't strike me as too exceptional given all the hype they get. Also, tragically, they were out of french fries when I visited (late lunch). Burger and fries felt sadly incomplete. read more

Burger She Wrote - Outside. - Burgers Near Me - Los Angeles, California

With the popularity of smash burgers taking over all of LA, it can be overwhelming trying them all until you find the one you love the most. Among the top 5 of my favorite smashed burger spots, Burger She Wrote sits on there at #4. Located in West Hollywood, bad parking and high prices are as expected. I mean, you're IN WeHo, what did you expect?? Burger She Wrote has one of the best super smashed burgers. Smashed so wide that the burger ends up looking like a ufo! Crispy crispy edges, sweet Hawaiian bun to balance out the flavor, and crispy handcut fries, yum! The burger spot is super tiny inside, there's only a few seating inside the place, but there are plenty of outdoor seating tables along the sidewalk. It's a poppin' cute little area with a Mexican restaurant next door so it's almost always filled with people, positive vibes, and laughter. Burger She Wrote is what I'd call a classic smashed burger. People woll complain about the price but with the prices of everything increasing, you'll be complaining about basically everything. read more

What I Ordered: -Oklahoma Burger (Double) $14.00 I've heard a lot of hype surrounding Burger She Wrote, so I was determined to see if this smash burger lived up to it. I have to say, Burger She Wrote has a very cool vibe and aesthetic. I especially like the flooring with the green cubes, which look like a really cool Windows 97 screensaver. Also, I love the name; it's a clever pun on the 80s hit TV show, Murder, She Wrote. The staff were okay, not exactly friendly, but I'm here for a burger, not a conversation. There are only 5 seats inside, but there is some outdoor seating available. I arrived for a late lunch, and my order was ready quickly. I decided to skip the fries, as the reviews here weren't very positive about them. The burger was just okay - not the best, but not the worst smash burger I've had. It's fine if you're nearby and hungry, but not worth the trip or the traffic. The burger was a bit salty, and with too many condiments, it felt a bit overwhelming. Ketchup, mustard, and mayo seem a bit boring for a trendy smash burger; I would have preferred a secret sauce or even Thousand Island dressing. The burger had too many pickles, but I did enjoy the grilled onions. Overall, the experience was underwhelming. I wouldn't mind paying the $14 price if I had truly loved the burger, especially since I wasn't very full afterwards. Skip this place and try another smash burger spot! It didn't live up to the hype, in my opinion. read more

Overall it's a good smash burger spot, and the staff is super friendly! I would say it can be a bit oily but if you like your burgers with some more fat then it's perfect. The fries were perfect like shoestring fries. It's a pretty casual spot so it can be limited spots if it's busy but mainly outdoors. read more

Burger She Wrote was founded in 2021 by pro skater Don "The Nuge" Nguyen and restauranteur Steven Arroyo. Love their "Oklahoma Burger" (owner Don Nguyen is originally from Oklahoma City) which is a smash burger with grilled onion smashed into the American wagyu beef patty. They also make a great grilled cheese. There's a really nice outdoor sidewalk terrace for seating and service was pretty fast. read more

I know. I know. It doesn't look appetizing. But this is underrated. We'll talk about the fries. They're soggy they're not great, but when you dip them in the sauce it taste like a blooming onion. 4/5 We both got a Oklahoma Burger. Plenty of onions, so flavorful. I've been pouring so much sauce in the burger. It's probably the best Smashburger I've had in my life. We came all the way down from San Francisco just to experience LA food. A friend recommended this place and it didn't disappoint. I doordashed since it's far from my hotel. read more

I'm eating my way through the different smash burger spots in LA, and it brought me to Burger She Wrote. Clever pun off the hit 80s-90s series "Murder She Wrote," the place actually doesn't have any reference to the TV show, which I believe is a sorely-missed opportunity (Angela Lansbury would be rolling in her grave)... Any case, my partner and I went for lunch, a few minutes after BSW opened. We were second in line, and overall, it wasn't too busy for a weekday-- customers came and went, and I can imagine that it gets busier later in the day and/or on weekends. Service was nice, if minimal, and I appreciate they served our food and drinks promptly. There are only two options: smash burger or Oklahoma burger. We got one of each, originally as single patties, but we ended up getting doubles as a mistake. Not mad, though, as we'd paid for singles! The patties were ENORMOUS and paper-thin, with lovely crispy edges while still being quite juicy and tender in the center. The fact it's A5 wagyu was a nice touch, and I could taste the richness and quality in every bite. Personally, I found the bun (Hawaiian roll-style?) soggy, which unfortunately did not keep its integrity while eating; I wish the buns were toasted for more structure. The fries were too greasy, and not my favorite-- I wouldn't recommend getting them. Overall, decent burger, but not the best smash burger I've had. BSW is also quite expensive ($14 for a double smash burger??). Glad to have tried it, though, and I'm still on the hunt for other smash burgers in town. read more

It's remarkable how often something so simple is done wrong. Yet, the combined culinary vision of Don and Steve (Arroyo), paired with his staff's execution, consistently delivers the comfort and precision of a true greasy-spoon classic served in a cozy street side setting that feels like a long-standing neighborhood fixture. The Oklahoma burger never misses: hearty beef folded into a heap of caramelized onions, forming a rich, savory harmony of texture and umami. A pillowy King's Hawaiian roll barely contains the indulgence, surrendering at the edges under the weight of the bite. The fries arrive crisp and golden earthy in color and flavor, as satisfying to look at as they are to eat. Soon, Nuge will introduce a beer line of his own, and I suspect it will pair beautifully with the menu. Until then, a Mexi-Coke quenches the post-burger thirst just fine. And then there's the staff. Respect is the culture here. As kitchen manager Alejandro Juarez puts it: "It costs us nothing to be kind." Live by that creed, and you'll be welcomed like a regular -- even on your first visit. On that note, after I mentioned that I'm a fellow Oklahoma native, Alejandro personally went out of his way to ensure a simple request became a memorable experience. The kind of gesture you'd expect from a brother. Because of that, I can't think of another place I'd rather invest my money when the craving for a great local burger strikes. P.S: Thanks Nuge. They say don't meet your heroes, but, to paraphrase a comment on your episode of Epicly Latered: "Imagine all of your friends call you a winner and the best. Be like Nuge." You're an Oklahoma icon. read more

I came here for a birthday party event and I do want to say these are one of the best smash burgers I've had in LA. I would definitely recommend this place to other people. The burger was simple yet very flavorful. The same patty with cheese, pickles, mustard, ketchup, grilled onions were so good. The fries were OK I could live without them. They were a bit on the greasier side. I would say that the order came out relatively quick. The price is about $50 for two meals. It's a vibe I definitely would come back read more

Great tasting smash burgers! We got the single smash but next time we're thinking we'll do the double. Fries were good as well, we asked the cashier if we could share one but we ended up getting two with each of us having our own fry instead. Cute spot - small but we came at a good time we think since it was pretty dead. My wife was bummed that they were out of their secret sauce but that just means we gotta go again! read more

I have been wanting to check this place out for months after seeing everybody do reviews on it. I finally made it to the area. The place was definitely smaller than I thought it would be, but I am not here for that. I am here for the smasburger! I got the Oklahoma Burger, double patty, with the grilled onions smashed into the meat. It came on a small plate that was pretty much the same size as the burger. The meat sticks way out past the bun, and it has that crispy edge I love. The pickles, onions, mustard, mayo and ketchup all tasted great, and the Kings Hawaiian bun was soft but the burger was definitely all all about the Wagyu meat. It was messy, hard to hold, and it was probably the best smash burger I have had in a long time!!! Yeah, I'll be back... read more

This location is just a walking distance to the Grove. I ordered an Oklahoma burger and fries. I was told that there's an hour wait time for this. It didn't really take that long but the wait time is ridiculous for the patty to be grilled fries to be thrown in the fryer. I was surprised how tiny the burger was. It's really small, more like a slider than a burger. The fries were overcooked. I didn't even bother taking pics. The taste was just fine. With an abundance of burger places in LA, I don't think I'll be making another trip here. read more

Finally tried Burger She Wrote and the verdict? It was fine. We came on Friday evening and there was no one dining there other than just take out orders. Service was busy for that reason and we ended up waiting about 20 minutes. I got the regular smashburger and it was slightly to crispy for me and also on the salty side, but that is the case for most smashburgers. I also felt like this smashburger was dry. I do recommend a double to enhance the bun to meat ratio. Fries were also just fine, but slightly too oily for my kind. Overall it's worth trying but certainly not the best smashburger in LA. I'd come back and give the Oklahoma burger a chance though! read more

First time coming here! We came because the brand Noyz was having their first birthday and they were giving away burgers and fries which was so cool! The burger was delicious! I only got one patty which I would have gotten two since it's so thinly smashed! The flavor was so good. They had a special noyz fries which has fries, cheese, grilled onions, and noyz sauce. The service was great. They were very attentive . The place is small but super cute and it was such a fun experience. Definitely coming back to try their grilled cheese which looked So good. read more

My girlfriend and I went to Burger She Wrote last week 12/30 and I myself had previously been here 2 or 3 times so I feel i can properly write a review now. We both got the Oklahoma style burgers (doubles) as we were both hungry and shared a side of their animal style fries. The burgers were delicious and not overly burnt as some other smash burgers spots do it. The fries had some sliced chillis and i honestly think they were better than animal style fries from in n out! I also got a chipotle bbq of their housemade sauces and it added the perfect touch to my meal. It was a bit busy when we went (8 pm ish) but service was quick and friendly. The girl that helped us out I believe her name was Kristine gave us a few suggestions and her service along with the food made this a pleasant meal for my girl and I. read more

3.5 Saw this place on YouTube. Only great for the meat quality, but size isn't so fulfilling for a standard burger that most people imagine for. $9 for a slider-size burger I didn't smell that meaty aroma for an American wagyu. It didn't seem to have a high-fat content, so it wasn't as juicy as I've expected. Overall a quick small bite. (15min wait) read more

A fancy happy meal. And the worst fries I've ever had. Plus the service was terrible waited almost an hour for it. Even after our friends had already received their food and finished it. We tipped well. Don't tip. Ambiance, crowded, seating terrible, and overly hyped. Never again. read more

Freaking delicious smash burgers. Honestly their menu is minimal and simple. Burger and fries. What more do you really need when those two things were created by the culinary gods and goddesses. But for real; they've perfected their burgers so there isn't a need for anything else. They know what they've got and this is what you'll want. Tip: they don't have a ton of seating but we like grabbing from here and then taking it over to Pan Pacific Park which is just a few steps away read more

Pro-Tip: Postmates was an overall great experience for me. Burger was still fresh and the fries came in nice and crunchy. Bottom-line: Super-Duper under-hyped. the 3.5/5 score lowballs for real. If you like Fatburger style smashburger, you're gonna love the double smashburger here. It shares the same essence but improves upon the formula making this burger superior in every way. Yes, it's expensive at 15 dollars. But quality is worthy the extra couple of dollars. The smashburger (double) is 3 ounces of amerian wagyu, hand-smashed and carmelized to perfection. Served with cheese, ketchup, mayo, mustard, onions, and pickles. Fatburger uses relish, which is the defining ingredient that separates the two. Murder she wrote uses a soft squishy bun that allows the razor-sharp patty more breathing room to show off it's body. And the crust is razor sharp and a work of art. The burger is so razor sharp on the edges it looks like a buzzsaw blade. It's picturesque perfect. I do like me the smashburgers that uses the special sauce, onions, cheese with jalapenes, but you know what, call me crazy, but I enjoy my burger with toppings. To me its snobbish to automatically assume ketchup/mayo debased the burger. It makes it... well... more American. And in many cases enhances the experience. And America is awesome. The fries are brown bagged fries, but a little smaller and semi-curled. I enjoyed the crunchier crispy taste, and if they were overdone, it still tasted great as dark brown. Would definitely come back to try the Oklahoma burger. Never had that. 5/5 stars read more

I heard really good thing about the place, so I gave it a shot. I ordered the Oklahoma burger, which is the same as their smash burger + grilled onions. They didn't have lettuce wraps or gluten free buns. They don't serve lettuce or tomatoes at all in their burgers. Because I am gluten free, I ordered the burger with double meat without buns. I was served 2 burger patties with cheese, grilled onions, and a thick layer of ketchup/mustard/mayo. The meat was good, but no special sauce or anything. I imagine it's a lot better with buns, but for myself I was very disappointed. I spent $14 on a burger and walked away very hungry. read more

Decent burger but takes forever and is wayyyyy too expensive for how small it is. Go eat a burger anywhere else

Smash burgers are everywhere in LA right now, but not all of them get it right. This spot in Fairfax district understands the art of the smash burger. Crispy edges, juicy center, perfect bun-to-patty ratio, straight-up mastery. What really sets them apart is they're consistent both in the food and the service. LA isn't exactly known for top-tier service, but this place delivers every time. Friendly fellas over there. With so many new smash burger spots popping up, this one still holds its place in my top three. Quality, execution, and service! read more

Burger She Wrote - Oklahoma Smash burger - Burgers Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I'm not usually a burger person, but Burger She Wrote has mastered the execution of a proper smash burger. We ordered 2 Oklahoma double burgers with everything on it and I found that the proportion of all ingredients (condiments, pickles, onions) were ideal, even though I typically choose to forego condiments. The patties are thin but not excessively so, and I don't have to strain my jaw to take a full bite of the burger which is a typical issue I face at other burger places. Prices are high for what these are (single at $9 and double at $14) and the kitchen seemed a bit understaffed for a Saturday afternoon, which led to about a 20 minute wait. Both indoor and outdoor seating is fairly limited, so takeout is ideal if you're in a rush. Despite this, I'd still recommend trying this place at least once. read more
