Smashburger Mondays: Why Venice Locals Can’t Get Enough

When Monday rolls around, most people are bracing for the week ahead, but at Captain Eddie’s Seafood in Nokomis, it’s the day our guests look forward to most. Why? Because of our sizzling Smashburger Monday special, where a juicy, made-to-order burger is just $8 with the purchase of any beverage.

The Story Behind Smashburger Mondays

Our Smashburger tradition started as a way to kick off the week with comfort food done right. Instead of rushing into Monday with leftover sandwiches or quick snacks, we wanted to give our guests something hearty, satisfying, and affordable. Today, Smashburger Monday is a local favorite, drawing in regulars from restaurants Venice FL and visitors from nearby Nokomis.

Behind the Scenes in the Kitchen

Our chefs take pride in the little details. The smash technique sears the burger on a hot griddle, locking in juices and creating that signature crispy edge. Each burger is served on a toasted bun with lettuce, tomato, and onion, simple, classic, and perfect for customizing.

Pair your burger with sides like golden fries, creamy coleslaw, or refreshing cucumber salad, and you’ve got a Monday meal worth celebrating.

Creative Topping Combos

While the classic toppings are always a hit, our guests love to mix things up. A few of our favorite combos:

  • Bacon + Cheddar + Mushrooms – A savory stack that pairs perfectly with a cold draft beer.
  • Grilled Onions + Swiss + Pickles – Tangy, melty, and irresistible.
  • Double Cheese + Extra Bacon – Because more is more on Mondays. 

Drink Pairings from the Tiki Bar

What’s a burger without the perfect beverage? From our Tiki Bar:

  • Modelo or Landshark – Crisp, light beers that complement the rich flavor of the Smashburger.
  • Captain Eddie’s Tropical Punch – Fruity, refreshing, and a local favorite.
  • House Wines – Red for a bold match, white for a lighter sip.
