Smashie's Burgers

"Standard burgers and fries place. Got smashie combo with fries and a drink. Fries were pretty good and fresh. Went well with ranch and Smashies sauce. Burgers are a lil thin, as it's a smashburger, so a hungry male should go for the doublemeat. It comes with cheese, smashie sauce, and some grilled onions. Napkins, packets of ketchup, light mayo, mustard, and relish are available at pickup windows. If possible, it's a good idea to have someone in your party grab a table while one waits for the order during busy times."

"Smashed burger is a type of hamburger in which a ball of ground beef is pressed firmly onto a hot griddle or skillet, creating a thin patty with crisp edges & a browned surface... The technique maximizes the Maillard reaction, producing a savory crust while keeping the interior juicy... This technique was invented in the 1920-30s..."

"I went with the LA dog which is a hotdog wrapped in bacon with a generous portion of sauteed onions and peppers and a garlic fries. I love garlic and always put 10x the amount required in all recipes so was blown away when they put more garlic on than I would! They were super tasty but super oily and was dripping through the bottom of the tray (and leaked/left marks on my shorts). A decent size line but moved fairly quickly. Food was better than expected from carnival like food vendors."

"The chicken tenders weren’t what I expected (no flake or not breaded) but they were good. I would have liked more fries, I saw other orders with a lot more fries. The Order/Pay/Pickup areas aren’t positioned right so it can get cluttered when going to pick up your food after paying for it with other people in your way ordering their food. Right by the pier and the beach. Good service and good food"
