Smashburger Tops List of Tyler Restaurants Coming Soon

smashburgerA story from TylerPaper.com this morning alerts us of new construction and restaurants coming to Tyler’s southeast loop.  Among the new tenants will be Colorado-based burger restaurant Smashburger. This is welcome news to me after the Fuddruckers project on South Broadway appears to have gone the way of the Dodo bird.

smashburger_retailSmashburger, the self-proclaimed “torch-bearer for the modern burger lover” will bring dining options to an area that has declined since the passing of Bennigans and Oxford Street (though Fat Catz has done quite well). Along with Smashburger, the developers are hoping to land additional eateries including a burrito place (Chipotle anyone?).

Has anoyone eaten at a Smashburger? Will this be a welcome addition? Let us know in the comments.
