    Onion rings cheese curds and a bbq burger.
    Josie S.

    This place use to give you a good amount of food for the price but now they are so stingy. I got 3 onion rings and a couple of cheese curds not to mention my patty was many 2 in in diameter. Next time I'll just pay a little more and go to a restaurant.

    EVERYTIME I come here it's been not good or bad. Staff looks at u like u are an inconvenience. The proper response when u are waiting to order would be "can I help u". Then they ALWAYS forget something here. I mean EVERYTIME. I'm actually easy to please, but this place is awful. I will NOT step back in here again.

    Asked for Cajun fries with extra seasoning. Literally a splash of Cajun on 6 French fries.
    Matt G.

    I stopped by today after a long day of work, just wanting a good ole cheeseburger and fries. I asked for extra seasoning on the fries, I didn't get seasoning on more than 7 fries. Fuck you

    a sandwich with onions and cheese

    Ordered a cheeseburger plate, cheddar style. There was literally no burger in the bun. Not like a small patty. No patty. No exaggeration. There was NO burger in the cheddar style burger!

    What I received.  Plain double cheeseburger with bacon.

    Headed to a Smokies game, we chose to stop into SmashCity for a pregame burger…read more The service and burger came up quickly. I opted for the truffle smash and large fry. My buddy opted for the Spicy Smash. The burgers were mmmmmmmmmm mmmmmmmm great, Juicy and the bun held up. Fries were fresh and would like to see maybe a topping or poutine option for them. Cool spot to get some AC and great burger before a Smokies game or a night in the old City.

    We already had 250 miles under our belt for the day. 4 more hours to home. I was sick of fast food…read moreand we were making good time so we decided to venture off the road, but just a little. SmashCity wasn't far off of the interstate, it had good ratings and although we'd been eating burgers and fries quite a bit on this roadtrip, a good burger and fries really sounded good. All of the reviews were right on - this was absolutely NOT fast food - it was fast, really fast, but the speed was just bonus. As we usually do, we split. We chose the Carolina BBQ smash. The burgers were juicy - if you're not careful, I guarantee you'll be wearing it. Two critiques, it definitely needed more sauce - I just added some of the SmashCity sauce from our fries and it worked but I really would have liked to have had more BBQ sauce. Second, the fried onions were quite burned. I pulled off most of them. The hand cut fries were piping hot, just the right amount of greasy and seasoned perfectly. Splitting the burger was a good call - I'd never have eaten the whole thing myself. The burger and fries were just over $20. When you consider a Big Mac meal at that clown place is $14, SmashCity is almost a bargain. Paul, the owner was like the energizer bunny - he was everywhere at once. Personality oozed from his pores. Make sure you tell him Sue said hi! (He won't remember me but just say hi anyway!) Now I wouldn't say SmashCity has the best burgers - that award goes to our friend Jerry. He makes a pretty mean smash burger on the blackstone. If you have an extra half hour, skip the fast food burger joints, get off that highway, and go let Paul fill your belly for the rest of your trip! You'll appreciate it!

    Solid spot to grab a quick bite. The restaurant has gotten better over the years adding some…read moreadditional seating and parking. The service was quick and friendly. The food was solid and the prices were fair. If you're trying to decide between onion rings and fries go onion rings, they're made to order and outstanding. I went with a classic cheeseburger add fresh jalapeños and my wife had the $2.99 margarita to pair with a chicken Caesar wrap. Both were stellar and my son got the classic cheeseburger with lettuce and tomato. Five stars all the way around. Will definitely be back.

    This is part 2 of my The Burgers review. Ironically, the very day before I tried the Lenoir City…read morelocation not knowing my friends were going to take me here. Since I had the burger the day before I tried another option. So I ordered the Southern Clucker, a fried chicken sandwich with cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, bacon, and jalapeños. I wasn't as impressed with the chicken as I was with the other location's burger. The chicken was fairly tough and chewy and the piece was smaller than the bun it was sitting in, so it was literally tough to eat. The bun and vegetables were fresh though. I loved the onion rings. Best seasoning I've had on fries or onion rings in a long time, and the waitress brought some ranch which helped even more! Because the locations seem consistent, I'll also give the Powell location 4 stars. Great sides, good buns, but not without their faults. Looking forward to trying the fried fish in future.
