First time at Chef Jeff's - we came in as a family and right out the gate they we're so warm and friendly, they walked us through the menu and were so patient while we figured out what we wanted. The menu is short and focused, which I always take as a good sign -- it tells you they're not trying to be everything, they're trying to perfect a few things. And they have. We appreciated the check ins throughout our meal too. The food lives up to the hype. We got the double smash, the smashed fries, the smashed salad, and a kids smash burger with fries. The meat is the star (that crispy edge is everything): perfectly seasoned, perfectly cooked, fries were crispy perfection, we can genuinely taste the love that went into everything they made. We'll be back! read more

Wowwww! What an experience! From the moment we walked in we were greeted with smiles and good vibes. I heard amazing things about this spot and it out did my expectations. Best burger I have ever had! Thanks chef read more

Service Is great but the burger is why you would come back. Its a bit pricey for a meal, but its better than the fast food place. The space itself is standard and has TV's to watch. I'd come back. read more

Dine in and delivery review let's get into it! OK so sometimes I will make a review off my first time because it was either a hit or Miss .... sometimes I wait to make a review just to make sure I am being honest and giving authentic opinions. I have dined in twice and ordered on DoorDash once. OK so for dining review it is a small storefront. There's a few parking spaces in the front . there's table seating inside. It's a very small storefront , but it looks clean inside . The waiters and workers were very polite . the burgers are the reason why I waited to make my review is because I wanted to make sure that I was giving my honest opinion so overall I give them a four out of five if you are a meat lover you appreciate good quality meat whether it is steak chicken hamburger Philly cheesesteak ect . I've seen alot of other different reviews and I will say this ! the burgers are good. They don't need to be overly seasoned because it's good quality meat. You also get good quality bread and ingredients! Even the onion rings were thick cut ! you can tell not frozen premade onion rings . They are very hearty and accommodating with the toppings that you ask for I always get a double smash with extra cheese, mushrooms and grilled onions and they never disappoint whether I'm walking into the store or ordering it for Delivery. I would definitely recommend this burger spot if you're a simple person that likes a good burger that doesn't need all the fancy fixings but still appreciate a good quality burger. I will definitely recommend coming to this place. The fries are good. They have combo deals. Definitely give them a try. Remember GOOD MEAT DOESNT NEED TO BE EXTRA SEASONED OR SALTY ! If you're coming for a good burger with good ingredients come come ! read more

I'm not in Antioch very often, but Chef Jeff's Smash Burger is definitely on my list for when I am! I had the smash salad, which was surprisingly filling and delicious, and treated myself to a milkshake on the side--even though I was trying to be good! The owner was also very pleasant, greeting everyone and personally checking in to see how we enjoyed our meals. Great food and great hospitality! read more

I wanted a burger and decided to try Jeff smash burgers located in downtown Antioch. The restaurant was nice and clean. Plenty of seating for lunchtime meal. The cashier was nice and friendly and took her time taking my order. The burger was absolutely delicious and the onion rings were nice and crunchy. I would say the only downfall was their menu which is on the TV was down I wasn't offered any other option to view the menu so I went to Yelp it would've been helpful to even have maybe just a QR code to pull a menu up read more

Generally I am not a fan of smash burgers, I just never got the trend. But THIS??! Now I understand. It was somehow both crispy and juicy. Super flavorful. Best burger I've had in recent memory. Also the level of service was totally unexpected from a walk up ordering style establishment. We felt welcome and well taken care of. Thanks Jeff! read more

We ordered for take out, the food was good, the over the counter service was also pleasant. I found the cost to be a bit expensive; However, with the increasing cost of ingredients I'm sure it is the going rate in the area for a smash burger meal. The restaurant appeared to be popular for the area. Overall, I would go back for takeout. It is a hole in the wall take-out sort of vibe, the restaurant is small and is not optimal for eating in. read more

Had been seeing this place recommended so we came thru! I'll keep it short and sweet, it was ok! I ordered a single, with bacon and pepper jack cheese. I liked the burger, it started falling apart the more I bit into but it was good for a burger! Their special sauce was pretty good! I ordered onion rings also, and those were pretty pretty good! Now the bad for me. It was a little busy and service can be a little slow! When you order get a receipt because our order was missing items and items were made wrong! read more

This is the second time we've eaten from this establishment but this time we dined in. The burgers are huge and made super fresh. They are delicious and very filling. Fries and onion rings are a nice accompaniment and their special sauce pairs nicely with the fries. It was also nice to see their ranch was thick and creamy and tasted homemade! We will be putting Chef Jeff's Smadh Burger on our rotation! read more

I have been on the hunt for not just a good burger but a great burger. One that stands above the rest. I've been to all the places HD, the yard, melt, Cali Burgers, counter, shake shack. They all make a good burger. This place sits above them all. The simple menu tells you they want to be excellent at their craft. If you can order a burger and not have to put any condiments on it and it's juicy and savory that's epic. The service was spot on they came out and asked how I liked it. Everything is made to order and it was worth the wait. Shake was even better than most places too. I will be bringing the family back here and telling my friends. Places like this deserve to be recognized. A+++ job. Happy to pay a prices when it's deserved and when everything is scratch and made to order. I think it's well in line compared to other burger joints that aren't fast food. If 6 stars were a thing they would have mine. Compliments to the Chef. read more

I have heard about this place from a few people and decided to try it out today since I was passing through the area. I absolutely loved everything about this burger it's the best burger I have ever had at a restaurant before. The single patty smash burger was cooked to perfection. Crispy on the edges and juicy in the middle the burger was so big it had an extra inch or so over lapping the bun . I added mushrooms and fresh Jalapeños for just $1 more. Do yourself a favor and get you a Chef Jeff smash burger. It's hands down my new favorite place to get a burger and I don't live in Antioch I will drive for a burger that delicious. read more

WOW! I was craving a burger... like a reeaall burger & this spot did not disappoint! The portions are huge! I ordered a double, just in case & it lasted me 2 meals. The onion rings are delicious & literally melt in your mouth. The secret sauce has the perfect amount of spice. The staff + Chef Jeff is very friendly & inviting. It's been 2 days since we had it & honestly I may go back tomorrow to try more + a shake for myself this time. read more

Didn't want a burger, but my son was craving "Jeff's" smash burger. I had never been before, drove past many times, now I know why the craving. Went in this past Friday, again not there for me, son ordered his smash burger with onion rings (no extra charge like most places) and a shake, Jeff's wife (Elise I believe) asked if I was having anything, no. Then I saw the limited time Patty Melt. My favorite, but no one makes a good patty melt anymore. I was right, no one makes a good patty melt, it was AWESOME. The bread, of course on traditional rye, was grilled to perfection, not toasted, yes grilled I say. Onions sautéed just enough to still have a slight crunch to them. The burger, oh the burger, crisp, charred edges, meat juicy and loaded with flavor, cheese melted, just as the name implies. Ordered the garlic fries, slight up charge, if you like garlic fries, pay for it, yum! My son's chocolate shake, made in a real metal shake container with real ice cream, and you even get the extra (confession I drank it OMG). Impeccable service start to finish. Incredible food from the first bite to the last. I could not finish it all, so my sister, who does NOT like patty melts by any means, decided to give it a try, should I say a finish. After her first bite, then a second one, she asks "is this for me, can I have it, the whole thing?" Yes, yes and yes. Chef Jeff you have converted her, you make a mean melt. We did take our food to go, it did not lack in taste, flavor or staying hot. The cheese on the smash burger was so creamy and melty, yes, I said melty, melt in your mouth creamy goodness. If you're a snob about patty melts like me, Chef Jeff has got you covered, but only for a limited time, it's on the sign. Thank you Chef Jeff and your wife, my son and I enjoyed the delicious food, wonderful service, and a really great conversation. If you're like me and have passed by, now is the time to stop by, just my opinion (fact). read more

Been craving a really good smash burger and found there was one in the area. The Hubby and I went to check it out for lunch. They had just opened but glad we beat the lunch rush. I ordered a single smash meal and added grilled mushrooms ($.50 extra) and bacon ($3 extra) to my burger and a side of onion rings. The hubby got a double smash with grilled mushrooms and jalapeños and a side of fries. Both burgers were huge and delish! You definitely have to try it with the orange sauce, it's fire! Solid burger spot! However, it is a bit pricey but at least get your moneys worth with how big your burger is. Will definitely come back. read more

First time here--and definitely not the last! I ordered a Smash Salad with pepper jack cheese, a Cookies & Cream shake, and a side of onion rings. The salad was fresh, healthy, and tasty with a good amount of shredded lettuce--no complaints there. The onion rings were hot, crispy, and flavorful. The only downside was the shake--it was a little bland and could use a stronger cookies & cream flavor. Still, I left feeling full and satisfied. Service was great, and the atmosphere was clean and welcoming. My only suggestion would be to have the menu displayed on a slightly larger TV monitor and also available on the counter for easier viewing. read more

I was honestly a little skeptical at first after reading other reviews, but I decided to try it anyway. I ordered a single smash burger, and it was pretty filling--I was already full by the end of it. My first impression was the grilled onions; I could really taste them on the smash burger, and the patty itself was also very flavorful. I enjoyed it a lot and would give it a solid 9/10. My order came out really fast, and the place was clean and well organized. I only ordered for myself at first, but since it was so good, I ended up getting a to-go order for my family too. Thanks to Chefs Jeff Smash burger for meeting my expectations. I'll definitely be coming back when I'm craving a burger again. read more

Back to Chef Jeff's two weeks ago. Burgers, fries, onion rings and sodas for two people was about $34, which IMO is a good price. I don't understand the review that said his single burger meal was $30. We (2 of us) think this is the best burger place we've ever been to, and even tho we live in Antioch, we eat out in the Sacramento/Folsom area often. The burgers are flavorful and juicy, buns are fresh, and fries and onion rings awesome. Service is excellent, staff is friendly, prices are reasonable, as stated before, and the place is clean. We like the burger dressing so much we bought a bottle of it for home. Chef Jeff's is a big win-win for Antioch. read more

Finally we got a chance to try this place , being hearing great reviews about this business. We ordered their smash cheeseburger value meal which comes with fries & drinks . We opted 1 order with fries & other with onion rings with our orders. We loved their onion rings nice crispy on the outside & soft juicy on inside. Their sauce was really tasty. Smash Burgers was very nice & filling nice generous portions of fries overall we loved it. Their customer service was great nice friendly staff & great vibe we loved to see all the families enjoying this place. It's a small place but nice experience. We have been twice here so far. There is ample public parking nearby. read more

So I just wanted to say we celebrated out 33rd wedding anniversary yesterday and my husband asked me where in the city (San Francisco) do I want to eat...you know fancy, upscale & expensive.

Best Smashburger hands-down. The double smashed with swiss is my go to. Jeff and the crew keep the quality and consistency on point.

I got a regular single smashburger with french fries and no salt on my fries. The food was hot which was good. I feel the burger did not have much flavor. I could not distinguish each separate item on the burger but it was good. I would come back to try their milkshakes. read more

I have been wanting to try Jeff's for a while and got the chance today. Simple no frills place with a basic menu. Had the double smash burger with onion rings. Came with 2 types of dipping sauce. Ranch and A 'ole. Which was a little watery. Finished with a Vanilla shake. The burger was excellent. Messy but wow, good flavor. The onion rings were big and crunchy. The shake was old school amazing. Located on 2nd street Riverfront downtown. This area could be so amazing. read more

Great burger spot! Staff is incredibly friendly and service was super quick. The burger itself was juicy, flavorful and you could tell the ingredients were high quality. The onion rings were crisp and not greasy, the fries were crispy as well. It's definitely a bit pricey as we paid almost $50 for two burger meals but it's not cheap to use fresh high quality ingredients. We'll be back! read more
