Nestled inside Bambini Villa, this flashy, ketchup- and mustard-painted diner lures you in with more than its fun design.

 

Smizzle joins the city’s exclusive cadre of smash burger specialists, serving crispy-edged patties cooked on a piping-hot griddle between buttery buns.

 

The shop uses locally sourced beef—300-day grain-fed, hormone-free, never-frozen Charolais, to be precise.

 

You can order them lite (one patty; B60 less), regular (two patties), or loaded (three patties; add B60). If you don’t want to build your own, there are six house specials to choose from.

 

Onion lovers, knock yourself out with their best-seller, the Oklahoma (B220/beef; B190/pork): a smash burger with double cheese, dill pickles, garlic and onion sauce, and tons of onion. Other options include the Crusty Blondy (B240/beef; B210/pork), which comes with crispy cheddar and spicy Sriracha mayo, and the Uptown Funk (B240/beef; B210/pork), topped with caramelized onions and truffle sauce.

 

While there are loads of options for sides, the truffle fries (B125/regular; B225/loaded) and messy fries (B155/regular; B285 loaded), topped with melted cheese, bacon, and secret sauce, steal the scene.

 

Wash it down with one of the signature ice cream shakes (B180-200), with flavors ranging from strawberry and salted caramel to Oreo’s and cream.
