A cult-favorite Venice burger stand is heading north — and bringing its famously cheap cheeseburgers with it.
The Win~Dow is set to open a new location on Santa Monica’s Montana Avenue this May, expanding the brand’s growing footprint across Southern California.
The smashburger spot — known for its $4.50 cheeseburgers — first launched in 2019 as a tiny walk-up window in Venice and quickly built a loyal following.
Now, the concept is moving into a 50-seat space at 930 Montana Ave., marking a bigger push into brick-and-mortar dining while keeping its signature low-price appeal.
The opening also comes as Santa Monica’s retail and dining scene has taken a hit, with a string of high-profile closures shaping the area in recent months.
