I normally really enjoy Smashburger and have been to several different locations, but have to say this location was a letdown. I was doing some shopping at Desert Ridge and decided to come here for a quick lunch. There was just one other group in the whole place, so I was able to order quickly. The guy at the register was very nice and friendly. He was patient while I looked over the menu before making my decision. Once I ordered, he made sure to repeat my order so as to make sure it was correct.
Food came out fairly quickly. Was a bit disappointed with the size of the burger as other locations I've been to are much larger, even for the size I ordered. I ordered the BBQ Bacon Cheddar burger with a side of Smashfries. The burger itself was pretty good however, my fries were a totally different story. Yes, they were crispy, but that was the only thing going for it. It was really lacking in seasonings. I didn't even taste any garlic on them and the rosemary was barely there. On top of that my fries were sitting in a big pile of oil! They really need to make sure to thoroughly drain the grease off the fries before serving them as no one wants to eat food sitting in all that.
The seating area could have been better cleaned up as many of the tables were still dirty with crumbs and sticky stuff. I had to go around to several tables before I found one that was the cleanest and then I still had to use a napkin to wipe it down.
This place could be really good if they just made sure that food was prepared and served correctly and made sure tables and floors were clean.
