Another new addition to Tempe and about a quarter mile or so from Mill ave and very close to ASU. This is in the newer section of ASU on College and University and is very close to the dorms or a quick bite before a game. The interior is a bit small and could easily crowd up fast and there is some seating outside.
Food is pretty good and definitely stands out from the normal fast food fare. My burger was crispy on the outside, but still juicy in the middle, which is part of the Smashburger namesake and style that they are known for. There is a decent amount of variety between the types of burgers or chicken sandwiches that can be ordered. Fries are a bit on the limp/soggy side and could use some improvement, but the option for garlic and rosemary was pretty cool (needs more garlic, though). The shakes are amazing and almost too rich for a place of this caliber and really made Smashburger stand out as a restaurant/dining option. Haagen-dasz ice cream shake in vanilla, chocolate, strawberry or mixed up creates a very tasty side or dessert.
