SMASH
CO.
A 30-second sear. A double-smash patty with crispy lace edges. A sauce we won't shut up about. That's it.

FINE DINING
FOR THIS.
Marco Reyes spent 12 years in Michelin-starred kitchens before he realized the perfect smash burger demanded just as much obsession — and was a hell of a lot more satisfying to eat. He walked away from a tasting menu career, bought a flat-top, and never looked back.

PICKLE BRINE
SHORTCUTS TAKEN
Every patty is hand-weighed, placed on a screaming-hot flat-top, and smashed once — hard. The crust develops in exactly 30 seconds. Not flipped until it's ready. Never rushed for service.
Our beef comes from a single grass-fed ranch in Western New York. Dry-aged in-house, ground fresh each morning. No blends, no fillers, no additives. The sauce stays classified.

340 Van Brunt St. Former warehouse — still feels exactly like one. The flat-top runs seven days a week.
