"Though it's only been open since 2020, Amboy has already made a name for itself as one of the heaviest hitters in the LA burger game. Run by the chef who founded Eggslut, this tiny restaurant/butcher shop in the Far East Plaza serves juicy, near-perfect smashburgers, thick bar-style burgers, and the best fries in the city. Yes, you heard that right. Golden and crispy, skinny (but not too skinny), they’re served piping hot and taste like they were touched by Midas. Amboy doesn’t have any official tables, but there are a few seats scattered around the plaza, if you’re able to snag them." - Kat Hong, Nikko Duren, Sylvio Martins, Brant Cox
