Nice, clean atmosphere. Smashburger doesn't do combos, so there is no deal by getting a burger, fries and drink. This is what I got and it was a bit pricey at $19. I should have taken a photo of the burger because it looked a little slapped together. I had the spicy jalapeno burger which was pretty tasty, I'll admit. The menu has a variety of items which would be fun to try out, so I'd go back. If you have a family of 4+, the $80-10 might be better spent at a place a little more restaurant and a little less fast food. read more

Poor service - no acknowledgement of customers waiting on line to order - back turned to guests - no welcome - no "I'll be right with you." After ten minutes of waiting, a server finally attended to the man in front of me who had been patiently waiting to buy a soda... then I finally got to order - still no greeting - no speaking to me at all - I wasn't asked if I was dining in or out (I am dining in and my receipt says take out) Store is dirty. Trash bins at kitchen and dining room are overflowing. Floor is slippery and sticky at same time. Prices have gone sky high. The check-out register had the nerve to ask me to leave a tip for counter service - when nobody even acknowledged I was there? Nope! Won't be back again! Used to really like this place. I think it must be on its way out. I haven't even gotten my food yet - but there is no way I am coming back read more

So Smashburger has been popping up on my feed quite a bit lately. I remember trying it when it first opened but I remember not liking it, but with everything popping up on my feed I thought we'd give it a try, again. I ordered their Double Classic Smash, Fries seasoned with rosemary and garlic and their Brussels sprouts. The burger, was very good but definitely not the best burger in the area. I found it a little over sauced and definitely to many red onions (pretty sure I got a whole onion). The bun didn't really hold up to the amount of sauce on the burger. The fries, seasoned with rosemary and garlic, two very strong seasonings and I found that the fries had no flavour. If they were advertised as just regular salted fries they would have been fine but they weren't. The reason I will go back, the Brussels sprouts. Such an interesting side for a fast food burger place and they were very good. I find that a lot of places over deep fry and over season their Brussels, Smashburger did not, they were perfect. read more

Ordered $45 worth of food which I think is overpriced, was sitting waiting for the food with my back to the counter when my husband said " what does she think she is doing!" I turned around to see one of the workers, who later identified herself as the manager, on a ladder on the counter BAREFOOT!!!!!! I jumped up and said you've got to be kidding me! First of all so dangerous, second of all bare feet in an eating establishment is unacceptable! She just looked at me like I was crazy! She tried to downplay what she was doing but I had none of it! I asked her how she was getting down? I said are you going to step on that counter with bare feet which she quite matter of factly said yes! I could not believe what I was hearing!!! Besides demanding my money back she got a good lecture on safety and sanitation! read more

I thought this was one of those run-of-the mill drive-thru basic burger places. Boy, I was wrong! I got a couple of kids cheeseburgers which the little ones enjoyed. We got the bacon brisket burger and the spicy Baja along with a side of smash fries. The burgers were great, the fries were great as well! The fries had the right amount of saltiness, herbs and crispness. I would definitely like to try some more of their varieties. The only downside was the 12 minute wait...but hey these were made to order and not waiting for me under a heating lamp; and moreover it was a Friday night, I guess I'll take the wait. read more

I'm waffling between 3 & 4 stars for my review - Please YELP - let us minions have the option of half stars :-) I came to Smash Burger the other night when the CEO/Co-Owner, Tom Ryan, was in town. I definitely give the layout, decor, and vibe of Smash Burger a big 2 thumbs up. It was clean, bright, plenty of seating & family friendly. Highlights for me included three flavored of iced tea with stevia as the sweetener! When have you ever seen Stevia at the fountain here? I appreciated their choice of locally crafted beer - Alley Kat! Optional bottled Dad's root beer & cream soda are also a winner winner chicken dinner with this Kat :-) The beef did not disappoint and the price point is spot on at $6.99 for an artisan 4 1/2 oz. certified angus burger and $7.99 for a 6 oz. The chicken was higher at about $8.49 and less filling - the chicken is pounded flat before searing on the grill to lock in the juices. The multigrain buns (usually my fave) were far too dense and completely overwhelmed the chicken. I much preferred the egg bun but like George, I do not understand why the bread is being shipped in from Chicago. The beef is certified 80/20 angus, grass fed, and corn finished for the last 30 days - said to give a more buttery flavor. But then again they sear your burger on the flat top with unsalted clarified butter anyway. They def got it right with toppings like a fried egg, haystack onions, sautéed baby portobellos, fresh jalapeños, Local whiskey BBQ sauce. Swiss cheese, cheddar cheese, truffle oil, and many more! The sides were a real show stopper for me! Shareable and priced from $2.49 to $4.99 ranging from yam fries, to veggie frites (wok inspired carrots & green beans), haystack onions (my fave), to poutine! They def got the sides right :-) For dessert time, they make old fashioned milkshakes countertop style. The Oreo was great but the Saskatoon berry was probably the worst milkshake I have ever had. I didn't taste anything resembling fruit and the texture was very displeasing - with large chunks of Saskatoon berry flesh getting stick in the straw :-( While I appreciate the effort to include local flavors and they got it right with Alley Kat & the BBQ sauce, it was a total miss with the Saskatoon shake. Take a peek at a bunch of the pics I uploaded :-) read more

Went looking for a better version of a McChicken and both Wendy's and mcdonalds blows them away for this sad $7.99 crispy chicken burger. It's smashed together on rotten wilted lettuce with hot and mushy tomatoes and the chicken paddy is about under a quarter inch thick. Had to take the toppings off and left with a bun and chicken for my $8 The picture says it all read more

The burgers really get me full it's so good and it's service is friendly and the smash fries are good

Maybe it was the end of the day, but the bacon was hard as rocks and the patty was way over cooked like it had been sitting on the grill a long time. That was a F/L mounment for me (first and last) If it is the end of the day, it is better to not sell than turn out crap. read more

I ordered the "Spicy Jalapeño Baja" burger with a poutine. The poutine was a little light on the gravy so I asked to get a side to add to it. I was informed that a container the size of a ketchup cup would cost $1.05-not worth it and as gravy isn't even on the menu as an add-on, I don't know where that price came from. The burger was well put together, the vegetables fresh and without defects, the sauces were flavorful, and the buns were soft. I was very disappointed with the burgers though! Very bland! I don't think there was any seasoning in/on it, BUT it was still moist and a good size. Overall, if you're searching for a mind blowing burger, Smashburger is not the place to go. read more

Smashburger - Burgers Near Me - Sherwood Park, Alberta

I was so happy to discover this place. I am so tired of going to places and telling them what I don't want on my chicken burger but end up paying for all of the unwanted toppings anyway. Their grill chicken patties are huge and look like actual chicken. My favorite buns are the egg buns as they are so and not so bready. I also love the goat cheese topping. I didn't care for their fries at first as I thought they were a little bland but the plain crispy flavour has started to win me over. When I am not sure what to eat I go there. The location isn't great but worth the drive. read more

Every time we go to Sherwood Park, we always make a stop to Smashburger. The ownership is a set of great people. The prices are more than reasonable, the staff is all very knowledgeable, and most importantly, the food is out of this world! There are about 7 or 8 burgers and some chicken options as well as great salads. I normally get the large sized bacon cheeseburger which is colossal in size and flavour! The smashfries are very unique and very tasty! The egg bun, hand made patties and fresh ingredients just make this place so addicting! They also have milkshakes and make a great poutine. The only thing that needs to be done is for them to open a location in the southwest ;). The St Albert location is equally as fabulous! read more

Smashburger - The baja salad with chicken added is divine! Great dressing and gigantic flavour at a awesome price - Burgers Near Me - Sherwood Park, Alberta

Burger was unexceptional and the fries were undercooked, and greasy like a wet sponge.

The drive out to Sherwood Park is a bit of a long one, but if it's for Smashburger, I'm usually pretty pumped to get in the car and go. I've given them several tries just for consistency's sake and I have to admit - I've had the same burger several times now....because it's just SO good. I always get the mushroom truffle burger - yummy and juicy with a perfect truffle flavor (without it being overwhelming) on the most BEAUTIFUL egg bun. I love it!!! The sides at Smashburger are pretty spectacular, too. My favorite are the SmashFries, which are just their thin matchstick fries in rosemary and garlic (and maybe parmesan, but I can't remember). They are just SO GOOD and simple, but flavorful and lovely. I've also given the Veggie Frites a shot too, and while they were a good idea, they were disappointingly soggy. Not sure if that's just the nature of things or if we just got a bad batch (but I will say that they still got eaten up!) My boyfriend has been curious about the poutine, but because they feature such thin, crispy (yummy) fries, I've always wondered if the fries would be overwhelmed by the gravy/cheese. Either way, I'm happy with the plain SmashFries...sooo good. I have noticed each time at Smashburger that the customer service is exceptional - the staff are always polite, quick and very approachable and friendly. Someone always comes by our table (sometimes several times) just to check up on us and make sure we are happy with our meal (even though it is definitely a counter restaurant - so this kind of service isn't even truly necessary, but always appreciated). The restaurant has always been spic and span whenever we've come, and the wait is never too long. The hype behind Smash Burger is that they "smash" their burgers on a buttered grill for a flavorful experience. I will say that the meat of the burger is never what truly jumps out at me, but maybe that's just because the truffle sauce is just that damn good :) read more

I tried Smashburger in Sherwood Park on its opening day on July 3. I was impressed by the selection of burger toppings on the menu and the effort that the chain made to identify with Edmonton (although I am aware of the "complaints" about a restaurant in Sherwood Park naming an Edmonton burger, I am more inclined to say "good effort"). My burger was good with good quality meat that was better than the usual chain places. For a side, I tried both the haystack onions and the smash fries. The onions were too salty and the fries were fine, nothing special. Overall the meal was good but not great. I will be back, but mostly because the location is close to home. Given the choice, I prefer the quality of the both the burgers and fries from Five Guys. read more

Smashburger is quite the Jekyl & Hyde burger joint. Do the pros out weight the cons? 3 stars is an accurate reflection of what they do. So it's an American company that has both franchise/corporate locations. (The Sherwood Park location is a franchise) The reason I bring this up is because they use American Corn Finished Beef in their burger patties. I find that hard to accept even though they explained the reason is due to the consistency of flavour across all their locations. They also fly their buns in from Chicago, IL. I didn't hear why but I'm sure that there is a local bakery that would be able to make a similar, if not identical, product. Now they do a few things very well. Shoestring fries herbed with rosemary and truffle oil shows a level of finesse that you wouldn't expect from a burger joint. I would buy that and their Yam Fries again and again. Also their price point for the portion sizes are quite reasonable. Finally I would strongly urge anyone reading NOT to get the saskatoon berry milkshake. It has no berry flavour and the texture of the berry peels is not appealing. A few suggestions to improve this shake would be to blend it more so that there is no berry skin plugging up the straw and adding a saskatoon berry syrup or another berry. I'd go back if I happened to find myself in Sherwood Park but I probably wouldn't drive there just for a burger. read more

Tom the founder was explaining the concept of SmashBurger and it's quite the process. A man very passionate about burgers. Seven different recipes that are all on the menu, we are trying every one on the menu, this could be filling! They have feature beer and like to use local breweries. Alley Kat is the one of choice for this night, Aprikat is great with many. We are served samples of all of the burgers I think the Truffle Mushroom Swiss is the winner. I could be back for it from the portabella mushrooms to the way they apply the Swiss cheese, this is a winner! Don't let me sway your opinions, there isn't a bad burger in the lot. They are all great and worth trying out. I am much happier with the way they treated this place after the feedback they received from the first grand opening. This is something many businesses overlook. My hat is off to them, now they just need to provide Gluten Free buns & I will be a regular! read more

Pleasantly surprised!! I have to admit, I had extremely low expectations going in here. I'm a huge Fatburger fan, so it's hard to find a burger joint that can compete. I made sure to order a burger that I would not typically order from Fatburger so I went with the Avocado Club burger. I loved the fact that it came on a multi-grain bun. The bun, as well as all the toppings were nice and fresh. The burger was full of flavor and I'm happy to say that I didn't once make a comparison to any other burger. I actually really enjoyed it. The variety of buns, toppings, sides and sauces is impressive. I have to say the star of the show for me was the smash fries! They're shoe string fries that are tossed in Italian olive oil, rosemary & garlic! ummmm... YES PLEASE! :D I can't think of any other burger place that offers anything like it. But if you're not a fan of those, they also have french fries, sweet potato fries, haystack onions, spicy buffalo fries, fried pickles, veggie frites and garden salad. I know, right??? Options galore! I can't say this has replaced Fatburger for the #1 spot but I will say I look forward to trying out more Smashburger ;) read more

Delicious burgers. Food quality a solid 4/5. Service was good, though more of a self serve situation as you order at the front. But that certainly doesn't distract from the great burgers read more

I LOVE the burgers here - especially the buffalo blue cheese burger. I eat a lot of burgers but honestly this is one of my favourites anywhere at any price point. The buns are soft and delicious. The meat is very tender and juicy. Unlike a lot of the reviewers I'm not a huge fan of the fries - but to each their own. If I could marry a Smashburger with Red Robin steak fries I'd probably never leave. For the reviewers complaining about the Saskatoon shake - that's probably a fair point and the reason why Saskatoons aren't used in much - the texture doesn't blend well. I think the chocolate oreo shake is awesome though - give it a try. I like to bring my family (4 kids) to Smashburger. The kids meals are HUGE (too big, in fact, but Dad gets the leftovers) for our little ones, but when they get bigger and older they'll appreciate it for sure. If you're looking for a more refined menu than what you get at Five Guys then this is your best bet. Five Guys is great for what it is - simple, calorie loaded, and simple (yeah, I said that twice). Smashburger gives you way more variety, better quality (IMO), and a better family dining experience. I think the burgers are a better value overall. Can't go wrong! read more

Very good burgers with lots of options: beef, chicken or black bean patties. The truffle Swiss burger is the highlight.

Great food, descent price, neat selection and variety. Service was fast and very pleasant. For a fast food burger place is a great family establishment. Rosemary French fries are to die for! read more

You've gotta try their veggie fries! It's basically just carrots and beans, but they are awesome. Way better with your burger than regular fries. My favorite burger is the truffle much room Swiss, it's savoury and delicious. I always get the large size burger and then regret it because it's too big, so don't do what I do and just get yourself the regular size. The smash fries are pretty good as well, cut up like shoe string fries you get a lot of surface area for the rosemary oil that they cover them in. I also like their buffalo fries that they hit with some cayenne seasoning. read more

Smashburger has one hell of a burger. Truffle-mushroom-swiss - the one everyone is raving about - lives up to the hype. From the incredibly soft and buttery bun, to the juicy burger & savory toppings, it truly jumped outside of my expectations for the very affordable price range. The other thing I like: the service is really good. It's a very "happy place". I would not hesitate from bringing friends and family here... I don't know if I'll ever be able to try anything other than that burger. It's too good!!! read more

I wanted to give this 3.5 stars, but will give it 4. There's enough good things about Smashburger to give it that little boost. The thing I was waffling on is the burger. Their process surely makes a juicy burger, but my oh my is is salty. And why don't they use Alberta beef? Apparently due to 'consistency'. Not good enough in my opinion. So on to my experiences. The burgers are good. As I mentioned before, the patties are a touch too salty for me, but otherwise I've never had a bad burger here. That's because each burger is made to order, which almost in itself justifies the price above the ubiquitous fast food joints. They do chicken as well and have a diverse selection of 'smashchickens'. On the burger side, my favorites are the avocado club, the spicy jalapeno baja, and the truffle mushroom swiss. They also have a black bean burger which was tasty, but a little dry. Now, on to what I think makes this place shine. Their fries and sides are amazing. Their classic fries are decent, but you need that good base for the amazing rosemary and truffle oil fries. The sweet potato fries are wonderful and those veggie frites are to die for. All in all Smashburger fits nicely between the big fast food joints and the gourmet burger joints. Their pricing is reasonable, they offer a good selection of drinks and food, and the service is fast and friendly. read more

Loved it. Allan G and I went to the Smashburger Yelp event, and were completely overwhelmed at the choices. First, I LOVE the Smash Fries, with olive oil, rosemary and sea salt. The sweet potato fries were good, but the thinly cut artsy fries were amazing. Out of all the burgers we sampled, I liked the BBQ ones and all, but the truffle mushroom one blew them all away for me. Savory, earthy, juicy, and seriously to die for flavor. I was less pleased with a chicken burger. It was good, but if I'm going to a place for a burger, give me the burger, not chicken. Seems like a cop out. The Saskatoon berry shake was meh, but I enjoyed the Oreo one. However, I still prefer the consistency of my blizzards at Dairy Queen. Thicker is better. Tom, the owner, was super friendly, and when he found out I was American too, joked with me a bit. Al had previously not enjoyed Alley Kat beer much, but actually found a variety he really liked. I'd gladly head out to Sherwood Park for more of the same. read more

I love smashburgers so i try to have them everyrtime im in calgary. I recently discovered that we have one here as well. Came here yesterday and ordered the BBQ bacon cheeseburger (reg size). It was very good, however i cant help notice that they dont give you as much fried onions with it as they do in calgary. It was a little disappointing since the fried onion was the best part. When i would get them in Calgary they would load it up with fried onions, like almost half it was that. Here you can literally count how many was there. Also had the oreo milkshake, which was very good. Not as sweet as i thought it would be. It was perfect. Anyways the burger was still tasty and the service was good. I just dont think i would be driving 30 mins to have it here. read more

We had a good experience. Staff was friendly, our burgers were really good, and the shoestring fries were yummy too! Thanks read more

The service was fast and friendly and the vegetables were very fresh but I expected a lot more from a place called "Smash Burger". The actual beef patties were thin and bland and the poutine was pretty much a spoonful of gravy with a few cheese curds. When we asked for more gravy for the poutine they wanted a dollar for a ketchup cup of it. I have an issue with paying a dollar for something I feel should have come with a meal already. All in all the food and service were both decent but I wouldn't go out of my way to eat here again. read more

Great food, great service, very quick and friendly! 2nd time being here, always forget about it as its kinda out of the way. Same quality as fat burger, but less coma. Great value for your money! read more

Had a Bacon Burger was a very good burger. The fries were delicious, crisp and had rosemary on them (I think) I had to ask her 4 times what she was saying... pretty sure she said rosemary and olive oil. The only thing that ruined this experience was the employee sleeping on the table next to me. VERY unprofessional. I walked by him going to the fountain and he had drool dripping on his arm. He didnt budge the entire time we were in the empty restaurant, several other employees just walked quietly by him as he napped away. read more

Just yum. They literally "smash" their meat when they cook it, I think that's cool. Their "smash fries" are perfect and they give you so many of them - which means lots of bag-fries when you get take out! I've only ever got take-out, but you can dine in as well. Takes a little while for your meal to be ready (it's not "fast food") and it's a tad pricey, but well worth it and always fresh and filling! read more

We went to smash burger with high hopes of tasty burgers and some interesting fries. What a disappointment. My husband ordered the large jalapeño baja beef burger with smash fries and I ordered they goat cheese spinach cucumber chicken burger and onion rings. The food came quickly but we were soon disappointed. My husband said his burger had zero flavour dispute the jalapeño peppers. The fries were okay - nothing to write home about. My burger was missing the cheese and cucumber. The girl was helpful and brought me some - unfortunately they were out of cucumber and suggested pickles instead (no thank you) the chicken burger was salty yet had no flavour. Bizarre. The onion rings were AWFUL! Nothing but salt coated onion. The texture was okay but the salt ruined it! I won't be going back. The 2 stars earned were only because the burgers came quick and the service was friendly. read more
