Our Story

Born on a flat-top. Raised on flavor.

We started with one griddle, one recipe and a stubborn belief that fast food can be great food. Every patty is smashed to order from fresh, never-frozen beef. Our buns are baked every morning, our sauces are made in-house, and our fries are cut from whole potatoes. No shortcuts, just food we are proud to hand across the counter.

“Best smash burger in town, hands down. The crust on those patties is unreal and the ember sauce should be sold by the gallon.”

“Ordered for the whole office and everything arrived hot. The Nashville hot sandwich has a cult following now.”
