OG Smash Burger

Jay Sun

Great smashburger in Burbank. Service was very friendly and the burger and chili were really great, just hits the spot when you're in the mood for a smashburger. It's a curbside place with a few tables by the curb, which is where I ate. Would go back the next time I'm in the area.

Ordered take out, we got the double cheeseburgers and fries which were very tasty and juicy. Grilled onions to perfection! Fries were slightly salty but not unbearable. Would recommend and visit again!

This is good place to stop for a quick and delicious lunch. Yes, burgers seem small at first but they're filling for sure and the amount of fries you get will fill you up for sure. This isn't a value meal kind of place, but rather pay a fair price for quality whole-in-the-wall burgers and fries. Dont get the single if you're starving. Get the triple with their OG fries, yummy!

Excellent food One of the best double patty smashburgers I've had service is great real nice french fries is good with the cold drink

First time here. Was looking for a great smash burger and this fulfilled that need! The burger is good, a bit of crispiness, grilled onion flavored and quite juicy. The fries were good and crispy, but a little over salted for my taste. It was very comfortable sitting eating my burger on the sidewalk at sunset. Definitely, I'll be back.

Really, cool little outdoor shack! Variety of drinks to go with the burger. The burger has GREAT taste, good size for a Double and the chili cheese fries were also good. GO CHECK IT OUT!! Combo prices are reasonable.

This is the 5th time I've eaten here. Every time it's been on point and better than other places I've gone to get a burger. You can tell all of the ingredients they use are super fresh. Everything on it stands out from the bun to the onions, pickles, sauce and the paddy all come together to taste like a perfect burger. Tanya the cashier was very friendly and made sure to ask if there were any special requests I had for my order. The only thing I changed is I got fresh onion instead of grilled yet I'm sure the grilled are great too. Also they nail the fries and the sodas have the right ratio of syrup to carbonation, which is exactly what you need to go with a burger and fries. I don't normally get soda but I do when I'm there. You can grab a seat out front under an umbrella. I go out of my way now to come here because when I have a craving I'm going to be let down if I go somewhere else.

My son and I stopped by OG Smash Burger today, and we were both genuinely impressed! The burgers were absolutely delicious! The beef patties were juicy, tender, and cooked to perfection. You can really tell they use quality meat and put care into every detail. The place has a great local, family-run vibe, and the young staff were all friendly, respectful, and full of positive energy. It’s always nice to see hardworking teens running a spot with pride and enthusiasm. Highly recommend supporting this place. it’s a hidden gem in Glendale that deserves to grow. We’ll definitely be back soon!

Super delicious and perfectly seasoned, crispy edges, and soft perfect bun. This is exactly what a smash burger should be. Staff was friendly. I will definitely be back for more. If you’re craving a real smash burger done right, this spot is 100% worth it.

Nico Feula

Delicious. Got the triple smash and some fries. Fries were crispy and the seasoning was great. The burger was HUGE, and had that classic smash burger taste, perfect cheese, and just right amount of grilled onions. I asked for peanut butter on the burger (I highly recommend) and they were happy to oblige by loading it up. Service was pretty quick, and the lady helping me was super friendly! Definitely worth the price, which seemed a bit high initially. Check this place out!

This review is long overdue! I find my self craving this burger joint on a weekly basis! It’s not your ordinary burger joint! The food, the fries, the atmosphere, it’s a vibe! The burger has so much flavor and is the perfect fix! I recently had their chili fries and it’s definitely better than Tommy’s! Can’t wait for the week to end every week so I get my fix! It’s usually my Friday cheat meal! Keep smashing some great food!

Got here and it was very quiet. Staff was helpful when ordering. Got a double smashed burger and pattymelt. The smash burger was pretty good. The combo was priced pretty high. The sauce was pretty damn good. The patty melt was super buttery. Also seems like the patties are cooked on mustard like in & out. They have some seating out front and it has a chill vibe. Almost made it seemed like I wasn't in California. Try it out!

My uncle from Oklahoma sent me a challenge to my best burger in the valley video. OG Smash Burger according to him, was one that I should have considered. To his point, the burger was definitely delicious. But, here’s the thing, when I review a restaurant, service and order accuracy are as important as the food itself. I ordered a double chili cheese burger. And man was I looking forward to tasting their chili. What I received was a double cheeseburger. Heartbroken as I was, I did not ask them to correct my order. They had three opportunities to get my order right, at the time I ordered it, when they prepped it and finally by checking it before giving me my burger. They failed. But, I will say that the flavor profile of my burger was amazing. If they had just a bit more attention to detail, this burger experience could have competed for top honors. Will I go back? Without question…yes!

They have a tasty meat, especially with the crunchy edge. However it’s pretty thin & we have to go to triple to get adequate amount of meat. Burger size is pretty small compared to other smash burger joints in the area

The burger was good. Crispy edges like a smash burger should have, but $12.47 was a bit high for what one gets. I asked for a bit different preparation, but they got my request wrong. (No big deal) No inside and no bathrooms. Seating out front. I had no issues with parking, but it was all street parking, no dedicated lot. The help was friendly. I probably will go back. One thing that seemed a little underhanded was, the menue RIGHT in front is NOT what I was charged. $.48 more for each burger is not much, but I didn't even order it with cheese. Should be less! It's about the principle. Not good business.

It’s no EZ Street Burger, but if you’re looking for a solid smash north of Glendale, this is the place. The decor is fantastic, and the service was great. I only waited about 5-10 minutes for a double combo with chili fries. The burger was delicious. Juicy, well seasoned, and checked all the boxes. While I wish the chili fries were a bit more special (the cheese seemed to be from a bag, hand shredded cheddar might improve the taste and look), the food itself was solid. The soda lacked that crispness and flavor that I usually expect from burger joints but was still fine. While the price is just a tad bit north of what I’d pay for this meal, the food itself was solid, and I could see myself coming back for a solid smash burger for lunch or dinner. I recommend.

This was our first time here and we generally liked it and we plan to come back in the future. We had triple cheese burgers, patty melt, regular fries, OG fries and the cookies. Their best item was definitely the cheese burger. There was not much to address regarding the atmosphere which is why that is rated as 3 stars. The Triple cheeseburger was the best item we tried. The meat/cheese/onion/pickle ratio was solid in between potato buns, loved it. There was a bit more grease than I’m used to seeing in a smash burger but I love oily food so no complaints here! The triple cheeseburger by itself can fill you up. The cheeseburger is what you want to try here. The patty melt was good but it’s not the item you come here to get. The bread was thick, which is what you want to see for a patty melt but it was too dry around the edges, the edges were definitely getting stuck in my throat. Once you get past the dry edges the rest was really good. I’d get it in the future but I’m definitely ripping off the edges. Regular Fries were okay at best, there was a hefty serving but even while fresh they only kinda had a crispiness to them and went soggy shortly after that. Seasoning was good but needed a bit more for sure. I tried them but I wouldn’t get them moving forward. Also it didn’t come with any sauce, sauce is a separate order. The OG Fries were better only because they had toppings, once the toppings are done the rest of the fries were negligible. We also had the chocolate chip and peanut butter cookies, they were thick, soft and chewy, would definitely get again. There was no line when we got there but we still waited about 25 minutes for our food, it seemed like there may have been a bunch of online orders because food was still coming out of the service window and being picked up in delivery bags. As far as seating, there is no indoor area past the kitchen so no indoor seating. Only outdoor seating is available, there are 3-4 tables seating 4 each and you help yourself to them. There is no bathroom available either, so maybe bring wet wipes? No dedicated parking, you’ll have to find a spot around the neighborhood, we didn’t have any issue finding a spot.

I've been wanting to try this burger joint for a while. I drive by it everyday to work. Tried it for the first time the other day and overall I thought it was solid. I can't give it 5 stars because there's far better burger spots in LA... but let me explain further. First the good, the people that work there are super cool. Service was solid and the guy that helped me out was extremely friendly and answered all my questions. The atmosphere, plenty of street parking and there's a lot outdoor seating. I went for dinner and it was pretty empty. The burger itself is good. Solid size, not too big not too small. Perfect... now for the not so good. The meat. Now, I LOVE smash burgers. And the most important thing about smash burgers is the quality of meat. I'm not saying the meat they used is terrible...I just had a higher expectation given the price point (I tried the double smash and the chili cheese burger and chili cheese fries). I sat there and ate it fresh out the kitchen, but the consistency was just okay. The chili they use wasn't that great, sadly. And the chili cheese fries weren't very good. I'd probably be back eventually... but I'll probably end up going to my go to smash burger spot instead.

I had the opportunity to try the burgers today for the first time, and as someone with a keen palate and experience in food, I must say I was quite disappointed. The burgers were not enjoyable at all, and I’ve never encountered anything like this before. After reading their story, it seems there might have been some missteps along the way. I’m curious about the five-star ratings that they received; perhaps those reviewers haven’t had the pleasure of tasting truly great burgers. The quality of the meat was lacking and had an unpleasant smell. The fries were a bit better, but still not top-notch. Considering the ingredients used, I found the prices to be about 50% higher than what you’d expect for comparable burgers. I don't recommend at all, if you don't want to waste your money .

I walked into this place expecting a premium burger experience, especially with a $16 price tag for the burger alone. Unfortunately, what I got tasted like something that should’ve cost half that. The patty was bland, almost shockingly tasteless, as if seasoning had been completely forgotten. For a burger priced like a gourmet item, it had none of the richness, depth, or satisfaction you’d expect. Every bite reminded me more of how much I paid than anything enjoyable about the food. What really pushed the disappointment over the edge was the total cost. Once you add fries and a drink, the meal jumps to an eye‑watering $26, and nothing about the flavor justifies that kind of price. The fries were forgettable, the drink was standard, and the whole experience left me feeling like I’d been charged for a premium meal but served something closer to fast‑food quality. When a place asks you to pay that much, the least they can do is deliver taste. Here, they didn’t even come close.
