Heavy Handed

Santa Monica

In my book, one of the best burgers in the city. Short-rib smashburgers, house pickles, the sweet-tangy heavy sauce, and fries cooked in beef tallow, on a dog-friendly patio. My order: the double, heavy fries to share, sauce on everything. Go at an off hour; the line is real.
