We Finally Found the Best Smash Burger in Montana

Montana is home to plenty of great burger joints, but one small restaurant in Three Forks is earning a reputation for serving some of the best smash burgers in the state.

Mobile Mike's Food-to-Go started as a food truck before opening a permanent brick-and-mortar location at 223 N. Main St. in Three Forks, and the restaurant has quickly become a destination for burger lovers willing to venture off the beaten path.

Mobile Mike's Food-to-Go

I'll admit, I was curious about the hype. After hearing countless recommendations, I recently stopped in to see if Mobile Mike's lived up to its growing reputation. It didn't disappoint.

From Food Truck to Must-Visit Montana Burger Spot

The menu features a variety of smash burgers with single, double, or triple patties, ranging from a classic smash burger to more creative options. I ordered the New Mexico Green Chili Smash, and it was one of the best burgers I've ever eaten. The combination of perfectly cooked beef, green chiles, fried onions, and flavorful toppings created the perfect balance of heat and flavor.

The burgers are the stars of the show, but don't overlook the sides. If you order fries or tater tots, make sure to get the Serrano fry sauce. It's the perfect complement to an already outstanding meal.

What makes Mobile Mike's even more special is that it's locally owned and still feels like a hidden gem. If you're not looking for it, you could easily drive right past it. That would be a mistake.

If you're in the Bozeman area and don't feel like leaving town, Cholms Burger on N. 7th Avenue also serves up a solid smash burger.

If you're searching for one of the best smash burgers in Montana, Mobile Mike's Food-to-Go deserves a spot at the top of your list. Trust me, it's worth the drive.
