I know it's a big chain out of Denver, and it's coming to Corporate across from Town Center in BR. Has anyone eaten at one?

It's ok. Nothing special. I'd say its relatively comparable in quality, price & service to something like five guys. It's probably a little "nicer" or sharper looking on the inside with a catchy looking menu and names for burgers and the kitchen is closed in the ones that I've been to. But again, nothing special from a food standpoint.

This is what I've heard--just like Five Guys and Mooyah.

Burgers are one of my favorite foods, so I don't necessarily hate burger options. But it sure does seem like we are getting a lot of same ole burger joints. And if this is opening in Towne Centre, it will be in direct competition with Five Guys.

I'd say Smashburger's burgers are a little different than those two. They do thin patties that get a good sear and crust on them. I've only had them once though, so it may not be the norm.

I don't know how they stay open on Magazine. The fries aren't bad though.

Im not into all these low end burger chains either. Five guys, mooyah, smashburger are all subpar. If ya spend an extra 2-5 dollars you will find a better quality meal.

I like Burgersmith over all the other ones in town. I wonder if it'll kill Mooyahs once they open next month. I hear Juban Crossing is getting one too.

Solid. Not great, not bad. I do prefer 5 Guys over Smashburger.

I eat at the Magazine location probably once every other month. It's nothing to write home about but the Baja Grilled Chicken sandwich is damn good.

Hell, I don't even know if you have to. Bacon cheeseburger without fries at Five Guys is $7.79. Cheeseburger at Mason's with your choice out of 4 different sides is $7.75 and adding bacon is $.75.
Bacon cheeseburger with fries or onion rings at Flemings during HH is $6.

Not a fan. If I wanted charred flat bits of burger cutting the side of my mouth while I eat, I'd do it myself.
