Smashburgers aren’t supposed to win awards. They’re supposed to be greasy, loud, fast, and gone in three minutes. But according to GaultMillau’s Züri isst, that’s exactly what happened: we took the top spot in their “Zurich’s Best Smashburger 2025” ranking.
No gimmicks. No reinvention. Just good beef smashed hard on hot steel, onions pressed into the patty, a bun that knows its job, and balance over excess. The kind of burger you don’t photograph — you eat.
The Züri isst team put eight smashburger spots head-to-head. Same rules, same hunger, zero mercy. The result? A 9/10 rating and the nod as Zurich’s best. Not because it’s fancy — but because it’s honest.
We’ll take it. Then we’ll get back to the grill.
