The Quality Commitment

How rigorous ingredient standards, hand-breaded poultry, and seared-to-order beef shape every plate that leaves a Nash & Smashed kitchen.

All blog articles

We don't compromise on sourcing. Providing a high-standard, freshly prepared menu isn't an option for us; it's the foundation of our business. When you walk through our doors or search for the finest burgers and fried chicken near you, you shouldn't have to second-guess the ingredients on your plate. We believe exceptional dining starts long before ingredients hit the heat—it begins with suppliers and prep teams who share our dedication to cleanliness, consistency, and care.

Uncompromising Quality

This means our chicken is trimmed cleanly in-house, our beef is portioned for high-heat searing, and the bacon on The Beast is savory, crisp turkey bacon rather than pork.

We wanted to build a menu where anyone seeking freshly cooked, high-quality comfort food didn't have to settle for a tiny sub-menu or wonder what went onto the grill before their order. Here, you can order across every category—burgers, sandwiches, bone-in chicken, tenders, wings, and sides—with total confidence. Dining out should bring friends, coworkers, and families together around one shared table. Whether you order a towering quadruple smash burger or a 12-piece box of hand-breaded chicken tenders, every single item is held to the same kitchen discipline.

Pure Ingredients, Elevated Craftsmanship

Our kitchen team turns carefully inspected ingredients into crave-worthy feasts through repeatable technique:

  • Smashed Beef Excellence: Our ground beef patties are pressed paper-thin against screaming-hot flat-tops using heavy stainless irons. This flash-sears the edges into a delicate, deeply savory lacy crust while sealing in rich beef juices.
  • Crispy Chicken Perfection: We use whole-muscle chicken cut by hand into tenders, bites, and sandwich fillets. Marinated and dredged piece by piece in seasoned flour, they drop straight into clean oil when your ticket prints and emerge shatteringly crisp on the outside, steaming and tender on the inside.
  • Smoky Turkey Bacon on The Beast: We top our signature burger with savory turkey bacon griddled until crisp, accompanied by crunchy onion strings, melted American cheese, dill pickles, lettuce, tomato, and house smashed sauce.
  • Thoughtful Plant-Based Options: Our Pea Protein burger is seared with the same flat-top focus, layered with melted American cheese, crisp lettuce, ripe tomatoes, tangy pickles, and house smashed sauce on a toasted bun.

The Nash & Smashed Dining Atmosphere

The dining experience at our locations is designed to be warm, upbeat, and energetic. Watch our open kitchen in action as spatulas scrape searing beef and fry baskets emerge golden from bubbling oil. The welcoming aroma of toasted buns and savory spices fills the room, while our team ensures every order lands fresh, piping hot, and properly packed for dine-in or takeout.
