A new kosher smash burger spot has opened on Jean Talon, near Decarie. It is called Smash MzL and owned by Stevie Ben Hamron and brothers Benjamin and Shloime Bitton. I recently dropped by for a tasting. The place was packed and Stevie prepared for me the trademark smashburger.

The restaurant opened in December 2025. “We took our time working on the menu and the concept,” said Stevie. “We wanted it to be a hit.”

I had a wonderful tasting, starting out with the trademark smash burger, the American grilled cheese (not even made with real cheese) and fries. For dessert Steve brought the churros, with dairy-less ice cream.
