I’m not sure why anyone would visit this place a second time. It has all the millennial tickles–shipping container chic, an Astro-turf patio area and upscale faux wood and resin picnic tables, recycled paper products–but the sliders don’t even rise to the level of a regular cheeseburger at McDonald’s or Burger King. And the millennial minimalism lacks character and any semblance of elegance. When did hip become so nondescript? There are so many excellent burger joints in BR now that I don’t give this one much chance of surviving. If Bud’s Broiler couldn’t make it in this spot, I just don’t see what Smalls has to offer that would give it a better shot at success.
