    “The regular smash burger here is the temple. Simple and tasty. Burger had incredible flavor and had that great smash burger crunch. Great sauce, great bun. This one was a single patty but I would do a double next time. Amazing smash burger and would recommend this place for anyone looking for a smash burger in Traverse city.”
