I get the hype for this restaurant because of its location, but after going here for dinner I found Smash very sub-par. Since there are not many other American style restaurants in Markham, this place is always really busy and you have to make a reservation for dinner.
I rated Smash sub-par because of their mains. The appetizers I found quite tasty and unique. I tried the crab cakes, ahi tuna wonton and calarmari all of which were 3/5-4/5 stars. However, when i wanted to try their surf and turf, one of their most popular dishes,and it was sold out which was a bit disappointing. Our table ordered 6 main dishes on their menu and after trying all of them I was very disappointed in the flavors of the food. The presentation was great and overall service was good, no complaints. Just disappointed in the food.
