When I have a burger craving Burgersmith is where I go! Cooked medium rare just as I requested, juicy & delicious!

While in the area for work my co worker and I were in desperate need of a burger and beer. We were actually looking at another restaurant that the concierge recommended but could not find it. Happy accident I guess. When we arrived it was about 7:00 pm on Friday night and the place was pretty empty. That made me a little nervous. We were sat in the bar and the bartendress was super nice and explained the local beers on tap (I am from CA.) and I went with Canebrake from Parish Brewing Co. The menu has multiple types of burger (filet, turkey, grass fed beef, bison). I ordered the Smith Burger which is seasoned with Louisiana spices & topped with grilled onions & Smith Sauce and I added lettuce, tomato and Gouda. The bun is branded and was nice and chewy and held the burger wonderfully. The Smith Sauce was basically a spicy aioli and gave the burger a kick. The burger was a bit overcooked and that was a bummer. It was a dang fine burger. read more

Burgersmith - Smith Burger. It is nice and spicy - Burgers Near Me - Lafayette, Louisiana

Burgersmith should really be a 3.5 star review because they have some improvements to make, but come on... they definitely DON'T deserve a 1 star review! The burger was great and the garlic butter fries were very nice. I recommend the filet mignon burger. read more

I've been here twice. The first time I had a cheese burger - and really enjoyed it. The second time I had the sliders - why did I do that? I hate even saying the word slider, doesn't sound like the name of food. Anyway, the sliders were very dry and tasteless - easy to overcook because of their size. The reason for the 4th star - the fries are AWESOME!!! Garlic something...very crispy, hot, flavorful. Would come back for the fries. It's a little pricey for Lafayette, but I'm used to big city prices so it seemed reasonable for what you get. read more

Delicious, juicy, filling, good times burger. I added the garlic fries with the Natural burger dressed up with the cajun seasoning, grilled onions, cheese and the regular burger toppings. The thing I really enjoyed was that even until the last bite, every topping was there, even the meat. I loved this burger, I've been told to try it with an egg the next time. Which I will do, cause I'm in love with these burgers.:-) read more

Ive eaten here twice it not all that tasty & its kind of expensive if i had to recommend a burger joint to anyone this would probably be last on my list read more

I order food from Burgersmith often, but tonight was my last time. I was given cold fries with a hot chicken sandwich. What a great combination. The food is delicious, but this I will not forgive. This is Lafayette. I'm sure it won't take long for me to find another restaurant better than this one. Dueces Burgersmith! read more

Service was ok, at best. I've been more than a few times now, and it seems like the servers are nice enough, but their memory is lacking. Dr. Pepper is not spelled the same as Coke, they only share one E!!! Other than that, the food is good, burger options are nice and flavorful. You can dress it up anyway you want, for a few quarters a change/add, and the fries are always a good complement to the ordeal of putting down that well cooked beef. I'm still going to go, no matter how many times I've got to train the staff! read more

I have yet to visit the restaurant, but today I ordered a meal online and it was delicious. I'm honestly thinking about ordering again in the next hour or so. I ordered the chicken sandwich with fries. It was so yummy! I would've added a photo, but the meal has already been devoured. read more

Soooo disappointed. Great beer. Rude server who focused more on her phone than me. The "organic " burger was the consistency of a rubber dog toy and had no flavor. Seriously, Wendy's has a better burger. I couldn't finish half. Fries were good! read more

My experience with Burgersmith is limited, but I can't recommend them highly. The burgers are good, but not great. They have Louisiana beers, which I appreciate, but not a great selection. The service is good, but, again, not great. So, if you want a good burger place, this is it. If you want a great burger place, you may need to look elsewhere. read more

Love love love the butter & garlic fries!!!! I also tried the crab & fried green tomato sliders that were fabulous!!!! Forgot to take pictures because everything tastes so good! My coworker had the bison burger and she said it was wonderful. read more

Burgers were ok but not great. The toasted buns were good. The fries were great (cajun). The price comes with the location and the quality of the meat. read more

What can I say? It's not horrible but is not by any definition of the word "the best" burger in town. I have eaten here about 5 times over the last couple of years and I have yet to find anything here outstanding. It is your basic average burger, not a bad burger but nothing memorable about it either. On this last trip I got the burger smith burger with cheese, and I paid $6.50 for it..., actually $7.05 with tax. I wouldn't say it was horribly over priced but for that money I could get a much better burger at Morvants or Fat Pats. read more

Good service and great burgers. I ordered the chicken burger with sweet potato bites.

This place is in a GREAT location. Too bad the food is not so great. "A" location with a "D" grade food. Food cold, no flavor, slow with not much crowd. Next time in mood for a good Hot Dog I'll go to Fat Pats or Twins. read more

One of our favorite burger places based on the quality of the food. Not much atmosphere. If you find yourself ready to eat after 8 PM on a week night the two for one Smith Burger and and draft beer is a real bargain. Don't go alone and expect half price it's two for one or one for full price. The waitress offered to bring me another one for free but half price for one did not apply. Be forewarned about the Smith Sauce. It's really spicy. Unless you have a high tolerance for heat get it on the side. read more

Overpriced mediocrity. I guess it's the location and the latest thing to do that give it it's allure. Can't hold a candle to Five Guys for a good all around burger. I had the Brisket blend patty, I forget what it's called. It was thin, split in half and inconsistent in done-ness (is that a word) throughout. Sweet potato rounds or whatever they were called don't have the same flavor as sweet potato fries. Almost like tiny fried sweet potatoes. Also had the Alligator appetizer. Two burgers, appetizer and two teas for 40 bucks. Left my taste buds and my wallet a little hurt. Just not impressed. Won't be back. read more

The burger was good but nothing spectacular. The fries were different. I had the butter & garlic fries. A little over priced due to the location. I would eat there again. read more

Had the filet burger, which was very tasty with the Smith sauce. One of the best burgers I've had in awhile. Would definitely recommend. I see where some others complain about the price. It does cost more, but you get what you pay for. This wouldn't be the place to take all the kids and pay the high price for each burger, but if you're really craving a good burger and its just you and the wife, it could be a good place. read more

Frequent this place often. Started out with a huge bang when it first opened and the hospitality was great! I've noticed some changes over the past year and I'm hoping the change doesn't make this place take a turn for the worst. The burgers and fries are still very good, in my opinion. I really enjoy them! I hope that the owners and managers don't take things for granted and get too conceited! You have a very good product so make sure you don't try to "shortcut" too many things, if you know what I mean. Last time there was about a week ago and our waitress was beyond impressive. Only problem is I cannot remember her name. I will seek her out the next time there. Very alert, attentive, and extremely professional. To the mangers of Burgersmith: make SURE you stay on top of your game or another burger place will start taking your business. Not necessarily my business, but other folks may be a LOT more pickier than me..... read more

Will not be back. Okra nasty. Turkey burger and filet burger both nasty and fries were soggy. That was not a turkey burger I had

I ordered takeout only to get home and discover I was given the wrong order although the ticket on the bag was correct. Very disappointing.

Great tasty Burgers both beef & Turkey. Staff is always friendly. A place we dine at 2-3x month.

I tried this restaurant tonight and the experience was disappointing. I ordered the food to go and the wait was very long; I stood at the bar for more than 25 minutes longer than I was told I would need to wait. I also witnessed what seemed to be a female manager or supervisor yelling at female server and sending her home in front of other employees and customers. Witnessing a manager communicate with an employee like that is very telling, and I find the incident to be incredibly inappropriate. I also witnessed other customers wait more than 5 minutes before being greeted. While chatting with one of the customers, we both agreed that the service was subpar but hoped our food would be good. By the time I got my food, the burgers were dry, the fries were soggy, and everything was cold. Overall, the whole experience seemed to demonstrate ineffective leadership and organization which then resulted in a 45 minute wait through slow service that ended with cold, soggy food. I wouldn't recommend. There are better burgers in town. read more

Excellent food! The burger was awesome and the fries had great seasoning and flavor. The waitress was the only downside. Rarely seen and not very informative. As an out of Townes who had never been to the business, I would have liked a little bit of a greeting or background. Not just a "here's the menu". All the other tables were offered desert and some of the ice cream looked delicious. Unfortunately, it was never mentioned to me. I was handed my check as soon as I finished my meal. Overall, delicious food and nice establishment. I'd recommend and definitely come back. read more

Burgersmith - Burgers Near Me - Lafayette, Louisiana

See all

Not really impressed. There are so many burger places in Lafayette to choose from...Burgersmith needs to step up their game. I had the regular burger and my husband had the Angus. Both were so overcooked that you could not tell one from the other. The upside was the cheese fries, but that's pretty hard to mess up. read more

This was the BEST burger I've ever had! It was Colorado beef and I ordered lots of toppings but even in Colorado I never had beef this tasty. The bun was toasted to perfection, the fries were hot & tasty & I did not get a food coma afterwards. Definitely high quality ingredients! After we try almost all the other amazing food joints in Lafayette we WILL be back. :) Only thing I'd request is to turn up the music and make the place livelier. It was quiet in there like a fancy restaurant. Very weird but hey the food was great! read more

Me and my dad and my little brother waited for over 25 min waiting for a server to come to our table after we were sat. No one ever came but we had about 7 servers pass by our table and just look at us. And then had 3 servers pass multiple times just looking at us. I'm a server. Umm hello. Bells should of rang when we sat there with menus in front and no drinks. I will never recommend this place ever. The servers suck and the manger even passed us. Twice and never notice. read more

Started off waiting 5 minutes for the hostess to show up so we could get a seat in the half empty restaurant. When our food arrived, half the order was wrong. Not only had the waitress taken part of the order incorrectly, the kitchen didn't make what the taken order. We got the Smith burger and it was mediocre and overcooked. All in all, while it wasn't a terrible experience, neither was it good. read more

Enjoyed a nice burger with a nice house brew. Our server, Victoria was pleasant and attentive. The Alligator Bites were awesome!! Nice flavor, nice crunch and very warm. Would go back again. read more

Best burger and fries in Lafayette! The smith sauce is delicious, and I love the alligator bites.

FINALLY!! The Burger Smith here has reached and exceeded the one in Baton Rouge!!! Been reluctant to visit here in the past bc of poor service and food quality. Our server, Daryl Ryan, was hands down the best we've ever had here. Really seemed to enjoy his work and care about the customer. Food was Top notch. He even asked if we had a Club Member card, which NEVER happens. We will be back...a lot!! read more

Been several times and I have always enjoyed the food and the atmosphere.The burgers are thick and good! The "special sauce" is called Smith sauce and I liked it. If you don't like it you can opt to not have it on your burger. They have a long list of condiments for your burger and options for your fries as well. The New ORleans ICe Cream Company ice cream they serve is great, too. They are a higher priced stop when compared to traditional "fast food" and they are lacking a kids' menu. I recommend that you at least give it a try. It is a locally owned business so that can only help! read more

I went there when it had first opened up and was impressed with the beer selection more so than the burger quality. Don't get me wrong, it is a good place to catch a burger, but all in all it is just an average burger. read more

Food is always good! But service this time was not. Had a blonde waitress who was rude, didn't smile and acted like we were wasting her time. We were there on a Saturday evening and she acted like we were keeping her from something, but they didn't close for another 1.5 hours after we left. read more

Burgers aren't best I've had but decent. Service is always good. Would love to see more variety on menu

I enjoy this place for the atmosphere and the local beer. The service is not great, but it is not terrible either. I will go back.

frys were ok but kinda limp ... better burgers at whataburger .. and way over priced for a burger and frys..

Burgersmith got one star only because I could not give it zero stars. Burgers are average at best - the only burgers that taste worse than burgersmith are southside bakery. Fries are worse than the burgers. And the third strike for me is that the food is overpriced. Save your money and go to Deano's for a great burger. read more
