Blue Eyes

From Janay Wrightā€™s review:

The smash burgers are prepared on a Jacksonā€™s Corner griddled sweet bun with thinly shaved onions smashed directly into the patty itself. True to the smash burger style, the hamburger is thin, asymmetrical and crispy.

As a full-blown shop, they can and do offer more, a kidā€™s burger, onion rings, soft-serve based deserts, and even a full bar.

Iā€™ve been twice now and I hate to say it but I donā€™t think the burgers are very good. I canā€™t quite put my finger on it but the flavor just isnā€™t there. The onion rings are good, but thatā€™s not enough to keep me coming. I worry that the Jacksonā€™s Corner empire generally has faded.
