| - I took my son to Smash Burger for lunch today, and we both thought that it was very good, but not exactly inexpensive. You place your order and they bring it to your table, just like at FatBurger. My son had the regular classic (5.99) and I had the big spicy baja (7.99). We also had their sides, which today; were the french fries (2.49), veggie frites (3.99) and the beefy chili (3.99). The only problem we had, was that the fries were not hot, which I am sure due to the table delivery. If they had been hot, The fries are cut thin, not quite as thin as those at InNout. I think they would have been very close to the fries that InNOut serves, which means they were pretty darn good. The servers and cashiers were very friendly and professional. The burgers were quite tasty, as was the beefy chili and vegetable frites. They do offer chicken, hot dogs, fresh salads, shakes and floats made with McKay's ice cream and they also have beer ((3.99 a bottle) and wine (4.99 a glass). I should have tried the traditional poutine (3.99) to see how it stacked up, but I had ordered so many items already that I just could not eat anymore, and I still had to take some stuff home.
Update, after a second visit with a friend to Smash Burger. We ordered the poutine and onion rings sides. The onion rings were lightly battered and were excellent. The poutine would have been excellent if the cheese curds had been in the gravy long enough to allow them to be hot and slightly melted, unfortunately some of the curds were quite large and cold. Even this way the pouting was still pretty tasty.
