Smashburger - Emeryville

The burgers here are incredibly delicious, packed with plenty of meat and an excellent selection of spices and toppings. The service is quick, though the prices are slightly on the higher side. However, the quality of the burgers makes it worth it. The indoor dining area is small, so it’s not ideal for large groups, but there's an outdoor terrace that can accommodate bigger parties. Additionally, there's ample parking available in the lot behind the restaurant.

The burgers here are truly delicious, featuring excellent bacon. The regular fries have a flavor reminiscent of McDonald's fries, but the outstanding specialty fries really stand out, rivaling those from Five Guys' cajun fries and even my somewhat less-loved In-N-Out fries. Coupled with their delicious milkshakes, this place has quickly become my new favorite burger spot!

Delicious fast burgers, though a bit pricey. I believe they're worth every penny. I've never regretted waiting a little for a fresh burger, although it can get crowded during lunch. My top pick is the smashed fries, which are topped with garlic and parsley—absolutely delicious! This place is definitely a favorite in my burger lineup!
