Lake Burger Tavern

The food was delicious and the staff were super friendly and attentive.

I have been wanting to try Lake Burger Tavern since seeing several reviews so I took a friend tonight for the Steak Frites and I tried the Swiss Mushroom Burger because I love a good dive or gastro-pub burger but seldom order one anymore. We also both decided to upgrade our hand-cut fries to Parmesan Truffle fries. My friend is a steak lover and we both agreed that the flavors and food quality were a 10.

It’s located in a strip of retail stores, maybe not your typical “tavern” location but its obvious that their trying to separate themselves from other Westnedge franchise restaurants with their menu, flavors, food quality and service.

Victoria was our server and she was very friendly and attentive. How can you not love a server wearing a Tiger cap who after talking to us, put on the Sweet 16 and Tigers opener for us.

You won’t be sorry for visiting and supporting this little joint. Flavor bomb score 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

This place is top-notch. The restaurant is owned and operated by an amazing family who hustles and bustles to keep up with the customers. They are so welcoming, you practically feel a part of their family. The service is exceptional and highly accommodating to any modifications or requests (e.g. sauce on the side, swaping out sides, drink modifications, choices from the secret menu, etc.). The restaurant itself is very clean, has a nice bar, and sufficient seating for parties of all sizes. The food is delicious. There's a good amount of options ranging from salads to burgers to steak or chicken. Their secret menu includes tacos. They often have creative and yummy specials, too. Their brussle sprouts are always cooked to perfection with a nice crisp to them. The fries are cut in-house and crunchy. Everything is fresh and made to order. You can't go wrong with anything. The prices are fair. The portions are great. It is conveniently located on Westnedge in Portage, and there is plenty of parking in the lot. This is a place I'll return to over and over again. You can't pass it up!

Their burgers are the absolute best!! Very flavorful and requires a lot of napkins. The staff is very personable and knowledgeable. We will definitely make this place a regular stop when in Kalamazoo!

Our server was fabulous, Cristina, and our food and drinks came quickly. Our burgers and fries were really good and the fries were crispy. I like that there was still skin on part of the fries, that helps add that delightful crispiness. We had a really nice lunch in a fun, casual atmosphere and the prices were very reasonable. The Moscow Mule was a really good blend of flavorful and strong but not too strong! The staff was attentive and friendly.

My husband and I, along with a couple of good friends, just had lunch at Lake Burger Tavern, and all we can say is WOW!!! It was good before, but since the new folks took over, it's fantastic! We have been in mourning since our go-to, Brite Eyes, closed, and we can say that we have found our new favorite spot. You can really tell the extra care that they put into the food. They were trying out a new appetizer and brought a complimentary tray of THE MOST DELICIOUS beef quesadilla I have ever had for us to try. I'm a quesadilla snob, and I found it to be just over-the-top tasty! The burgers and fries were splendid, the service super-friendly and warm, and it's the same pleasant and warm atmosphere as before. The music is at just the right level so you can have a conversation and the lighting is just right. All this for a very reasonable price. Run, don't walk, to Lake Burger on Westnedge!
