**Bengaluru Welcomes Smash Guys, Elevating the Burger Scene in Indiranagar**

**Bengaluru, May 27, 2025** – Burger aficionados in Bengaluru have a new haven to rejoice in as Smash Guys, a popular burger concept, has officially opened its first permanent location in Indiranagar. Following a successful run of pop-up events, the restaurant, founded by brothers Nikhil and Abhijit Gupta, alongside chef consultant Adithya Kidambi, is looking to redefine the burger experience in the city.

Smash Guys offers a menu inspired by American burger history, with a focus on “smash burgers,” a style known for its crispy, flavorful patties cooked on a high-heat flattop grill. The menu features a range of options, from the classic “OG Smash Burger” to more adventurous offerings like the “Flintstone” with torched bone marrow. Vegetarian options, such as the Korean Fried Paneer Burger, are also available. Diners can complement their meals with sides like corn ribs and parmesan fries, along with diner-style milkshakes and decadent desserts like the Old Monk chocolate mousse.

“We started with a simple idea — to bring world-class smash burgers to India,” says Abhijit Gupta. “We are paying homage to burger styles that hold a piece of history.”

The restaurant’s interior reflects a classic American diner aesthetic, with checkered floors and marquee signs. While the newly opened establishment is already proving popular, drawing crowds and experiencing fast-paced, albeit slightly chaotic, service, early reviews indicate a promising addition to Bengaluru’s vibrant culinary landscape.

Smash Guys is located on 12th Main Road in Indiranagar. A meal for two is estimated at ₹1,500.
