Hammer Burger

Nestled in downtown Santa Ana, this hidden gem boasts flavors that will leave your taste buds singing praises. Though it might take a bit of sleuthing to discover, once found, it becomes an unforgettable culinary haven. Having visited twice, my first encounter was with the Spicy Smash--a dish that exceeded all expectations. The explosion of flavors was simply divine. Accompanying the main course, the Chili Cheese fries were an equally delightful indulgence. On my most recent visit, I ventured into the realm of the Flatty Melt, a burger that has swiftly claimed the title of my favorite. Crispy, juicy, and bursting with flavor, it's a culinary masterpiece. The attentive staff enhances the dining experience, with cashiers offering helpful suggestions and other team members ensuring your satisfaction. Despite its cozy size, the establishment features a charming ambiance with a few booths and high-top tables. An added bonus is the availability of beer to complement your meal. The assortment of condiments, including the delectable garlic, ranch, and jalapeno ranch, adds a finishing touch to the gastronomic journey. This place is a must-try, earning a solid 10/10 for its exceptional culinary offerings and welcoming atmosphere.

If you like smash burgers, this spot has some of the best ones! I went with their spicy smash burger with three meats and the flavor was so damn good! Really enjoyed the crispy and tender meats along with the perfectly cooked cheese in the spicy jalapeno sauce. They also have a sauce bar for all of their sauces so give that a shot. They even have a bar and TV for those who want to drink and eat while watching some sports!

I have had this place saved in my bookmarked places for awhile now. I wish I had tried it before today because we have been missing out! They serve smashed burgers, and burgers automatically come as a double, which is a must for smashed burgers. Burgers are reasonably priced. The classic is $10, which comes with Hammer sauce, cheese, pickles, and grilled onions, which we left off the burgers. The service was quick and friendly. The cashier (sorry, I didn't get his name) was very helpful as we let him know it was our first time here. Onto the food! The smashed patty was perfectly cooked, very tasty, the potato bun was soft and fresh. All in all a very good burger. We also had an order of regular shoestring French fries. They were pretty good too. There is a nice selection of free sauces available. Everything from jalapeño ranch, regular ranch, Chipotle ranch, Hammer sauce BBQ sauce and hot sauce. Parking isn't easy. There is street parking with parking meters. There is...
