Master Critic Review

Smash House Burgers 7.9
Diamond District
A family-owned Midtown smash-burger shop with a kosher-leaning menu and speedy counter service. The griddled patties come crisp-edged and seasoned assertively, with a solid roster of toppings and sides. A low-key option when you want a dependable burger near Times Square without the chain feel.
Must-Try Dishes: Classic Smash Cheeseburger, Onion Rings, House Fries
