34 Best Burger Restaurants near Independence

“Clarkston location, lunch 2/14/24. Decent craft beer selection, for our IPA tastes. The Smokehouse fries were probably the best "loaded fries" I've ever had. We also had a great burger and fish n chips, no complaints. Server Brooke was incredible--we'll ask for her next time. Lots of TV's. We'll be back!“

“This take out only restaurant is top notch. The entire menue is made from scratch. It's fresh and delicious! Definitely better than the typical chain restaurant. You taste the quality and care put into each recipe with every bite. I do wish they'd make some cauliflower Mac and Cheese for those of us on keto eating plans. Other than this it's just about as perfect of comfort food as one can get. Oh and I'd love to have a couple of delicious desserts to choose from too. Homemade chocolate cake, chocolate mousse, maybe some cheesecake.“

“this is the best place i have ever been. such quick service, everyone is nice, the food was the best thing i have ever ingested. got 2 donuts and a breakfast sandwich. donuts were divine and sandwich was warm and scrumptious. no one understands how good this is until they get it. also, prices were perfect. maybe a total of $6 for a whole breakfast! dk donuts i love you. need to come back for a donut burger. if i could give this place 10 stars i would. love, katie and zach“

“5 star reviews are easily given away, but this place absolutely deserves it.I had the double Kegger Burger, my wife had the classic. The double was basically an adult slider, half pound, fantastic bun, cooked perfect.Both came with great fries. She had a beer, I had a can of root beer.Total came to $42. Which is cheaper than Five Guys and 10x the burger.This is in the competition for best burger in Detroit.“

“First time trying this place, and I was shocked by the amazing customer service and fast order delivery since some of the comments online weren't what you'd like to hear when looking for somewhere to eat. However, it was the opposite of what I expected. The food was delicious and quickly delivered. Adding on, the manager had everything organised and under control.I am definitely going to be visiting it regularly and recommending it to my family!!“

“This place is solid! The staff are very friendly, efficient and they rock! This location has the old school order from your vehicle and the bring the food and tray! It is my guilty pleasure and if driving down M-15 and in the area, stop by!“

“This diner is me and my father's FAVORITE place EVER. We go there almost every weekend, and the food is always delicious! The employees are always very nice and know us, and the drawings left by one of the employees that are at the register glass are lovely. The food is delicious, the building is gorgeous, the atmosphere is cozy and wonderful, the employees are kind, overall, I 100% recommend going here! I recommend the saganaki highly.“

“We were here celebrating my sister in laws 40th birthday. The service was amazing and the food was perfect. Our waitress Lacy was very kind and patient. I also give high praise to any waitress or waiter that gives lots of napkins. Thank you for the amazing service.“

“I work near by and stop by frequently. FRIENDLY-ISH customer service (they sometimes assume you should know the menu as well whe as them?) GREAT food options. But the quality varies. And so does the wait times. Not the most efficient. Will I come back YES, AND recommend YES. You can’t go wrong….. to nitpick, everything they serve needs salt.Parking: LARGE PARKING LOTKid-friendliness: Plenty of outdoor space“

“Great service, great food!Fun bar atmosphere but still family-friendly.Our friends are doing keto and were able l to alter their order to be keto friendly. I, on the other hand, am polar opposite! I had the fish fry and it was perfect. You could tell it was made from scratch with love.Our server made sure our drinks never went dry.“

“My mom and I stopped in to pick up a carryout after running errands. Wow! The service was incredible. The cashier/waitress was friendly and took our order right away. She was cheerful and polite. Within a few minutes our order was ready to go. The other waitress walked out to-go order over to us. Very good customer service and our lunch was fantastic, hot and fresh. This is great to know since we're over in the area quite frequently. Plus, I saw in the cooler they had slices of cake and pie that looked beyond delicious. We'll be back soon to try the other goodies! Highly recommend!“

“I normally don’t leave reviews but this place is a 10/10 ! The food is always well seasoned and fresh when it hits the table. I love love love the veggie salad too, I’m surprised this place isn’t more packed when I go, it’s so good!“

“An institution. While other places in the area have withered away to relics, this place has remained true to what it's always been. You'll get your food and remember that this is how it's supposed to look. The people who make it care about it, and want you to savor it, and just enjoy being there.It's a cafe. It's the cafe. In a desert of aging strip malls, this is an oasis.Look through your phone, find an old friend you haven't talked to in a while, and arrange to meet up here. You'll smile, hug, laugh, grab a coffee, talk, then great food, more talking, more coffee, more laughs, and you'll wonder why you don't do this more often. This is a place to feel good.“

“I can't get enough of Lefty's loaded fries! They are absolutely mouthwatering. The combination of crispy fries, melted cheese, and savory toppings is out of this world. The service is always quick and friendly, making it a delightful spot to grab a quick bite. Lefty's loaded fries are a must-try, and I can't recommend them enough!“

“This was my first visit and will not be my last! I live 2 miles away and pass by often and finally stopped in! The owners Mike and Tracy are so friendly and FUN!The burger was great and made to my temperature.(medium rare). Sliders available too!I heard fish is the thing and will order next time!Good variety of beer and liquor and overall just a great neighborhood vibe.As noted, they close early, but if you know before you go it shouldn’t be an issue!I’ll be BACk!!“

“I used to like five guys. Haven't been there in a while... I walked out ? $28 for two measley double cheeseburgers ? no drink,no fries or anything else. Just two lousy double cheeseburgers. This isn't Kobe beef, or even wagyu or something special. Never mind, I don't need it that bad. And you can keep your free peanuts. Won't be coming back......“

“Super fast, great prices, LOVE the Hawaiian salad, chicken chili (medium spicy ?) Greek chicken wrap because hello pink greek dressing! Those are my go to's! Can't go wrong with anything here. House made ranch is yum! The best honey mustard! Love the online order option for my lunch breaks. You da best!“

“I have lived in Waterford for many years and never heard of this place until last week. I was told that they have the best hamburgers anywhere, I agree. In the staff was fantastic given the crowd. Definitely kind of put this on a habitual visit list.“

“The only reason I didn't give 5 stars for atmosphere is because it was freezing cold in the dining room. If there was an issue with the furnace, they should have posted a note on the door, giving people an option as to whether or not they wanted to dine in.“

“I didn't eat inside, went through the drive-thru. I had the Walleye which came with fries, coleslaw and a dinner roll. I had to wait a few minutes for my food, but when I got home, it was still warm. I really liked that they did not put the coleslaw, tartar sauce and butter in the same bag as the hot food.“

“I had my birthday celebration at Sportmens Great Northern Grill. The owner Tom and manager Nicole made sure to make my day the most special! I was able to rent one side of the dining room. I was able to decorate my area however i wanted tables, balloons, and centerpieces etc.. Jen the waitress, was the kindest and so very thorough in the care and service for my family and friends. The bartenders Sam and Bri were super attentive to not only my party but the customers at the bar. Overall it was an amazing afternoon and i would certainly allow Sportsmens Great Northern Grill to host any event of mine in the future.“

“My second time here. I love the menu... hard to choose between traditional Irish favorites, American staples, and modern twists. I'd love to come back when green beer is flowing. This is the kind of place where a great party is just a moment away.“

“Love this place sooo much. Some of the best + most consistently good burgers. Seasoned fries are a must try. Their house sauce that I am completely drawing a blank on is amazing w fries, burger, or fried chicken sandwich. Good shakes too.Parking: Easy access, plenty of room.Kid-friendliness: Very much so a kid friendly atmosphere (colorful and inviting). Shakes are well loved by kiddos.“

“I usually order after my shift as it's close by to this location. Never had a problem with the employees. In fact I found them to be very friendly and helpful. Also the food I have ordered has been outstanding but usually all I've ordered are the frosty's and the Dave's burger and fries so I can't comment as to any of the other. The Frirs i''ve had specifically have been awesome at this location it's like they boil them in the oil to perfection and possibly even change their oil frequently? Anyways thank you Wendy's.“

“The product is always good. Except, the man (who I believe is the owner if I'm not mistaken) who took my order made me feel slightly uncomfortable. I had 2 items in my order, I didn't even get done with ordering my first item and he was already rushing me to the total. And as I continued ordering. He made a comment saying "oh. I didn't hear you say that". Because he didn't even give me the chance to finish ordering...I also overhead the convo with the car he had in front of me as well as the vehicle behind me in the drive thru line, and the man just isn't pleasant to speak to and probably shouldn't be taking customers orders.“

“I absolutely love this McDonald's. I used to bring my kids here when they were little and now I'm bringing my grandchildren here. We always have a good time. We arrive hungry and full of energy then leave full of food and all tired out. Thanks for staying open. Thank you for keeping your place structure. Not too many around anymore.“

“So today is free ice cream day and my day to pickup the grandkids and of course the baby girl hit me with can we go to the Dairy Queen.? Mind you we live in Michigan and yes!!! We are still bearing winter ? and to add salt to to it. Im not eating sugar today ??‍♀️ gotta love her. ? ? “

“One of the best DQ experiences I've had! I worked at one for a while so I know it gets stressful when it's busy but the young girl who helped me was super sweet and got my stuff out pretty fast considering the huge line. Would definitely go again!“

“Me and my daughter thought all the steak and shakes were closed until we discovered there was a steak and shake open when she looked up food places nearby. We were so happy to see that this location was open while we were shopping at great lakes crossing!! We got 2 burgers 2 fries and 2 drinks. Everything was hot, fresh, delicious and priced right!! We would travel all the way back here just for the food and service!! GOD BLESS YOU ALL!! Keep up the great work!!“

“Ordered the spicy chicken strips & fries with lemon pepper they were delicious.Parking: Plenty of parking has slowed down a bit since the grand opening.Kid-friendliness: They have a collection of kiddie meals available.Wheelchair accessibility: They have wheelchair accessibility in the front of the building.“

“The last 3 orders at Culvers drive thru, each time other cars behind me have received their food and I had to go in and request my order. The last order on 2/7/24 waited 25 minutes Twice the manager stated the charges for food would be reversed on my card due to the long wait but it never happens. Very poor service from Culvers employees and manager.“

“Lefty's Cheesesteak offers a satisfying dining experience with its decent food and reasonable prices. While I enjoyed my visit, I couldn't help but notice a slight letdown in the bread department. The sandwiches, while tasty, could definitely be taken up a notch with higher quality bread and a greater variety of options beyond the standard white sub buns.The menu offers a range of flavors that hit the spot, and the prices are fair for what you get. However, the bread's role in a great sandwich can't be understated, and it's an area where Lefty's could excel with some improvement. Nevertheless, if you're looking for a solid meal that won't break the bank, Lefty's Cheesesteak is worth a visit. Just remember, while the bread might not steal the show, the overall experience is still a satisfying one.“

“I recently encountered a highly unusual app malfunction, but my interaction with the manager, Diana, was remarkably satisfying. She's incredibly thorough, concise, and delightfully polite while getting straight to the point. I'm extremely pleased with the service. Five stars from me.“

“Got blizzards here with a friend, it was pretty good not gonna lie. I would truly reccomend it There are so many reasons why ice cream is so good! First, it's sweet and creamy, which is always a delicious combination. It's also incredibly versatile - there are so many different flavors and toppings to choose from, so you can always find something that you love. Finally, ice cream is just a classic treat that's perfect for any occasion. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or just enjoying a lazy summer afternoon, ice cream is always a great choice.“
