Easy Street Burgers
Easy Street Burgers
Studio City's go-to spot for real smash burgers that earn every five-star review on Lankershim.
The beef hits hot steel and stays there. That's the whole philosophy at Easy Street Burgers, and 1,291 reviews averaging 4.4 stars say it works. Regulars on Lankershim Blvd know the drill: no foam, no gimmicks, just a proper smash that locks in a crust you can hear before you even bite.
The menu moves fast but the flavors don't cut corners. The Jalapeño Bomber has regulars calling it the best burger they've ever eaten, full stop. The Double Jalapeño Monster with bacon and Cajun fries is the kind of order that turns a lunch into a story you tell at dinner. Staff like Gerardo and David treat first-timers like they've been coming in for years.
This is Lankershim's answer to the question every Studio City local eventually asks: where do you get a burger that actually delivers? Easy Street has been answering it one smash at a time.
The lineup at Easy Street Burgers is built around the smash technique: thin, crispy-edged patties pressed onto a screaming-hot flat top until the crust forms on its own. Order the Number 1 if you want to understand the baseline. Order the Number 3 if you want to understand why people come back twice in a week.
Customize any burger with bacon, extra patties, or a heat upgrade. The Cajun fries are a side order that stops being a side order after the first bite. Everything comes out fast without tasting like it was rushed, which is the whole point of doing smash right.
Dine in at the Studio City location or grab it to go for a quick lunch on the Valley side of the hill. Either way, the beef does the talking.

A smash burger is made by pressing a ball of beef flat onto a very hot cooking surface. The high heat and direct contact create a browned, crispy crust through the Maillard reaction. That crust is what makes the flavor noticeably different from a thick, steamed patty.
The Jalapeño Bomber consistently draws the highest praise, with multiple reviewers calling it the best burger they have ever eaten. The Number 3 Double Jalapeño Monster with bacon and Cajun fries is also a top order for customers who want to go all in.
