Some of L.A.'s best burgers hit the Valley — with double the craft beer, a new soft-serve dip and more

Some of L.A.'s best burgers just landed in the Valley. Santa Monica's popular smashburger spot Heavy Handed has expanded to Studio City, filling the former Mister O's space with short-rib patties, indoor and outdoor seating, double the craft beer list and a new soft-serve dip flavor. The brand’s signature orange is eye-catching along Ventura Boulevard, as are the vibrant, psychedelic murals found both indoors and out by local artist DJ Neff.

Now that the tapas-forward restaurant is back it’s serving fan-favorite dishes such as gambas al ajillo, lomo embuchado, albondigas with salsa verde, bacalao fritters and grilled skirt steak under sliced cucumber. Along with the new location comes beer, wine, sangrias and a new cocktail menu with the likes of nopales-tinged martinis, mezcal old-fashioneds, tomatillo micheladas, spicy margaritas and a torched-coconut take on the coquito.
