Best place to eat in Canton! We love this place and love the staff! The layout of the bar is poor and it fills up fast because it is so small. The burgers are the best! read more

Came here because I was in the area and also I have read a lot about this place and wanted to try. Came here during their happy hour (4-6 everyday) where they had $2-$4 beers and $4 starters. For my starter I had their wings (not featured on their happy hour list) which are your typical coney island wings, but of course they were oh so good. For my meal i had a create your own kobe burger( It was freakin great, they offer five different types of burger here) with the brioche bun and garlic mayo among others which made it so right. For my sideI went with chili cheese fries, which was also on point and very awesome. Overall this place has great everything (mainly the burgers, which are top 10-15 in my opinion) and along with the great happy hour and the daily specials, this is a place that will be visited many times throughout the future. read more

I went to basement burger bar last week before a movie with three of my friends. I was doing Whole 30 and got food that was completely complaint. I ordered a bun-less beef burger with jalapenos, black and green olives, lettuce, pickles and pesto. I added bacon, egg and avocado. This was huge portion and absolutely delicious. I added a side salad as well. The whole thing was around $10 or so. SO REASONABLE. I will 100% be back. read more

Got a burger and was excited for it. After a few bites noticed it didn't have the toppings I asked for. Instead of offering a new burger, our waitress handed me my toppings on a plate. When I asked for her not to charge me, she made a face and walked away to ask her manager and never came back to let me know the outcome of that conversation. Poor customer service is never made up no matter how good the food, which unfortunately was still quite good. read more

Manager told me to setup a time and date, so we started emailing back and forth and I told him Saturday at 8:30 around 5-6pm. Asked if that was ok and then he didn't respond to me until 11pm that night. Guess he's a BSer about a complimentary meal for myself and a guest. So it still stands, the food is great, service is terrible in every way now ha. read more

Went this weekend with my wife, she tried the Kobe burger, I tried the bison, we ordered pretty much the same stuff on both, not too much though cause we wanted to really taste the quality of the burger itself. We were very happy, cooked exactly how we asked, and the fries / tater tots were also perfect. We also ordered nachos for a starter and we were thinking it would be a small portion, we were very wrong, this is easily something that could be a main course for a couple of people to share. Overall great food, and the service was very friendly and helpful. read more

burger tasted WATERY!! me and a friend went to grab dinner and my burger was the absolute worst!!!! i would never eat here again. waste of money. read more

Finally I was able to go here (the FH location has been in my bookmarks for agessss) and it was a hit. We came in on a weekday around 1:30, leaving behind the lunch rush. Sheesh I am glad about that because the place is definitely small. I absolutely love 'interactive menu's' - which is really just a wayy fancy way of saying that I find great pleasure in marking Xs in designated spots. Yes, I actually enjoy doing surveys also. I'm easily amused, what can I say! So anyways, build your own burger, put x ' s in the box to choose your bun, protein, sauces and toppings. El Hub went with a juicy, beefy cheeseburger with lettuce, tomato, onion (pretty basic) and garlic mayo with beer battered fries as a side. Being a tot-fanatic I went with those, and a black bean, pepper jack, onion, pickle, avocado contraption. The beef burger on brioche was VERY good. The only problem we encountered was that the bun did not hold up under "all" the toppings, which were really basic as you can see. Brioche bun was definitely a bit flimsy. The black bean burger had pieces of beans, corn, bell peppers inside and had great seasoning to it. I loved it. No problems with the whole wheat bun, by the way. Loved the garlic mayo, though be forewarned: if you are brilliant like me and eat this in the middle of the day, you WILL ward off any vampires (and coworkers, and friends, and strangers) for the remainder of the day. That stuff was strong, man. Lastly, the tots are crispy on the outside and perfectly potatoey on the inside. Somehow however the fries beat them hands down. I'm craving those glorious, majestic, not-heavily-battered babies right now. read more

Burger joints really aren't my cup of tea, but I couldn't help my intrigue when I heard about they way they do things here. When you're sat you receive a menu, a laminated build-your-own burger/salad menu, and a dry-erase market. You can build your own burger or salad by checking off things on the laminated menu, which is pretty cool! In eating here I discovered that I'm not only terrible at designing my own burgers, but I'm also fairly restricted in what I can eat as a vegetarian. I've done the build your own thing a few times, but I'm not talented enough to make something super tasty so I find myself just using their burger ideas and removing things. My favorite thing about this place is their tater tots. They're not divine or even all that special, but tots are such a rarity in restaurants that I can't pass them up! Overall, my experience here has been okay. The service has consistently been fine. Food's fine. I love their hours. My partner enjoys their food. There's alcohol. Not bad at all. read more

This place was absolutely delicious! I built a massive burger that was cooked to perfection. I am very impressed by the extensive list of toppings this establishment offers. The cook was new and forgot to add one of my toppings but this was quickly fixed. My beau's burger was delicious as well. We ordered tater tots a as a side and those were more than enough to share. Our waitress was wonderful. She gave me a sample of beer which was sweet. read more

The burgers are excellent and I have never had better French fries ever. First time we tried it and we ordered it to go. Usually food isn't as good carry out as it is dine in, I can't imagine it being any better The inside looks nice but maybe a little cramped. The only thing I think they need to improve on is the attitude of the staff. Being a GM for a very busy bar myself I know good / friendly service when I see it and they are lacking in this department read more

First time going here a few days ago and I wasnt disappointed. Probably the best burger I've had in a while if not period. I'd like to give myself the credit in creating it‍ but it was delicious...so many options were available it took me a minute being somewhat indecisive but I got it together lol. I'll be prepared next time which will be soon seeing I've been thinking about it since read more

I had a hard time deciding on a rating! 3.5 stars :) I wouldn't go out of my way to come back, but we just might become regulars because it is so close. The food simply wasn't as great as I thought it would be. There are a lot of chain restaurants with more flavorful burgers, which is surprising since that's what this place is all about. However, the staff here was great. The selection of toppings is vast and reasonably priced as long as you don't go overboard with add-ons. Lots of different drink choices, from beer to an old fashioned (there's a gin/pineapple/jalapeño drink I will try next time). I like the community aspect, they're really trying to entice customers to come in & hang out with specials & fun things like trivia nights. On Thursday nights, for example, my guy & I could grab an appetizer, a drink, & a beer while playing trivia for less than $10 total at a place with good people. Of course that is going to reel me in. & the food isn't bad by any means, it just didn't blow me away like I was expecting. I did like the burger toppings a lot, and the patty (I chose regular beef) can be switched up, so maybe I'll try something new next time. read more

I am updating my review! I am in love with the place. Ever since I found out about half off apps after 10 on trivia night! You get really good at figuring out what goes well and what doesn't. Honestly, if you don't like your food the chances are that you were the one to mess it up. Very similar to Bagger Dave's but BBB has more variety and better service. read more

The best burgers around! Not only is the menu one of a kind the staff at this location is so friendly and accommodating! Our waitress Krista made it a great experience both times visiting this location! Her energy is magnetic! My family and I will definitely be back! read more

Everything was good. Servers were very kind, and were attentive. The tater tots (and the sides in general) are always great here. Burgers are always solid as well. read more

I love this place. The burgers are always cooked to the perfect temperature and hold a lot of flavor. The salads are my favorite in the area. Friendly attentive staff, quick food and plenty of drink choices. Great Happy Hours as well. read more

Great burgers but the beer list is poor and they are cancelling their rewards program.

Never have I been to a place where you just build your own burger, fill out a dry erase menu with exactly what you want, and get it. Awesome concept as I was thrilled to not have to scrape a goddamn salad off my burger. I had a bison burger and asked for medium, it came out medium and juicy. It was perfect. The service was prompt. Highly recommend. read more

I heard about this place from a old co worker, I could do for the life of me understand why he swore by this place! However, after eating here, I can see why! The menu is really cool, they give you a marker and you literally check off on a the things you want on your burger or salad. I felt like a kid, but in a good way! The ambiance is ok at the canton location, but the original spot in Farmington hills is in a actual basement from what I hear, now how awesome is that?! Not to get sidetracked, the food was really good! I'll definitely have to come here again to try different foods, my eyes were bigger than my appetite this time around! Try the turkey burger, it's huge! And the buffalo blue cheese tots made with franks red hot! read more

Girlfriend and I wanted to try this place and so glad we did. It's easy to miss and when we stepped in I wasn't immediately sold. The decor isn't anything special and the menu is super simple and really promotes the build your own burger concept. The staff is very friendly though and right away we were treated very well. We ordered buffalo tots as a starter and they came quick and were very good. We each made our own burgers and everything about them was delicious. They were very messy but in the best way. I got the beef and my gf got the black bean veggie and her patty was one of the best we've tried. Mine was ordered as medium rare and it was perfectly cooked and the pulled pork on top has me thinking if we make the drive again I might try and make a sandwich just out of that. The beer battered fries were also delicious. Crisp and crunchy with the amazing bbq ketchup. She got the sweet potato fries and they came with this sweet cinnamon whipped butter dip and good lord. The fries on their own are great but with the dip they're amazing. They're not the fastest and a little more pricey than a Bagger Dave's or other equivalent but sooooo worth it. read more

Update: after the owner of the restaurant reached out to us, we gave them another try. The food was just as good as last time and the service was perfect. It was just quick enough without feeling rushed. No complaints and I would definitely recommend trying this place if you want a good burger! read more

Great selections of add ons for burgers great service Nice beer flights too been there several times

Pretty Pricy but a good spot! There Wagyu beef patties especially with that Big Boy Burger is top notch

Standard beer and burger place. Can get busy at times and is nothing special to write home about. Custom burgers is fun as a novelty but can wear off quickly. Take out is not recommended. Things don't arrive home as ordered. read more

Worth the trip. This is a new location, in Canton, off Ford Road. I like their set-up and approach to the menu and selection options. The location is in a strip mall, with limited parking and large pot holes, especially off the Ford Road entrance. And unfortunately, this place is too small. It was crowd on a late Friday night, with a good size waiting line. Its much more than a burger bar. It is a bar that servers burgers, but its much much more. Everything is a la carte, you basically build your own burger, or salad, from the bun type, to the meat or protein, to the regular topping to premium toppings. It is the ultimate, have it your way. The salads are the same, pick your lettuce type, protein, and toppings. This is a great place for carnivores and vegetarians. The server was fast and friendly. We started with the pretzel sticks, with dipping sauce, which are surprising light an dairy, despite the fact they are pretzel based rolls. read more

The burgers are always cooked to a perfect medium, that's how I like my burger. Reasonable price, considering the increase in meat prices. I sat at the bar, took at least 10 minutes to get service, they need to work on that. I was ready to leave when the bartender finally acknowledged me. Food is good, need to work on service. BTW, the bartender was NOT busy. read more

I come here with a group of friends every weekend for trivia. The food is delicious & the waitstaff is awesome!

Great food and great service!! I would ignore any negative reviews and definitely try this place out for yourself!! Initially looking at the menu I thought it was a bit over priced but after getting the food you realize you get what you pay for!! It was quality well prepared food. We will definitely be back next time we are in the area!! Great job to everyone working today!!! CHECK THIS PLACE OUT!!! read more

Great food ! Awesome atmosphere, great friendly staff and also speedy services! Will be returning !

updating my review to five stars because of a recent visit. it was a busy Thursday night (trivia and $3 burgers and long islands), and there was a long wait. my boyfriend and i waited almost an hour before resorting to just sitting in the bar area. however, while we were waiting the owner asked us if he could get us a drink on the house. we both ordered long islands and they were excellent! when we sat, we got our food very quickly and it was delicious as well. i am giving this place five stars now because of the service. you cannot go to a lot of places nowadays where the owners actually care about their business. you can tell that the owners and the people who work here really care about their customers and that is what really counts! read more

This business has got legs. Great concept, big portions. What makes this place great is the whole ordering process. You get to write your order on the menu with a marker, thus eliminating communication errors and the embarrassment of looking someone in the face after ordering 8 toppings. The kobe beef burger was juicy. The brioche bun was silky smooth. The tots were to die for, and the portions were massive. I was the biggest guy in our party of six and I was the only one who didn't finish my food (which is a testament to how good the food was for everyone) The waitress was kind of slow towards the end, but helpful and nice overall. Trivia Day Thursday is pretty fun. This place will be here to stay in Canton. read more

This was one the best burgers I have every had. From the bun to the stuff blue cheese in side of the meat. The tarot tots where ok not great they fell apart when you tried to pick them up. The appetizer sampler was a great value. We got the pick 3 so the frickels( like 6 of them) mac n cheese bites( spot on like 8 of them). Soft Pretzels (two huge ones). I would order that again next time. The service was good and the staff seemed very nice. The service was not a 5 but a solid 4. I gave them a 4 because the tots and service was really good not great. I will take my family and friend to this place as they had a nice beat selection and the place was hopping. read more

Excellent burger. I had make your own - choose your meat, bun & sauce (1 incl); toppings (5 incl); and premium toppings (all extra) & cheeses (extra) and sides (all extra). A little pricey for Kobe med. well with garlic mayo & spring mix, tomato, pickle & black olives w/ sweet potato fries & cinnamon butter. Delicious except not a fan of the sweet cinnamon butter with sweet fries and pickle & olives. But if you wait and eat the dip and fries after its like dessert. LoL Mark had 1lb double cheeseburger - it was huge! Had it medium rare and it was perfect. Had their regular beer-battered fries. Very crispy. All around resto-pub atmosphere. Good service, quick & great food. read more

Great food and service! My mom wanted a burger and fries. She loves her fries. She can't stop raving about how great the burger was. And she lived the fries also. read more

Love this place! You can build your own burger, and fries are outstanding! I love the topping options, and meat options as well. Good ones for veggie too. read more

While burgers are great here, the vegetarian options are awesome! I love the Portabella mushroom burger! Fries (and ranch!) are delicious too! Great locally owned burger bar! read more

Fantastic experience. We tried the sampler - frickles, pretzels, and mozz sticks were all very good. I got a Kobe beef burger and it was excellent. Had great beef flavor, and the veggies on it were nice and fresh. My partner had their signature blend burger and she said that that was also very good. Blake, our server, was on top of everything. Our drinks were kept full, our table was kept clear, he suggested sauces that we might enjoy. Only two things I felt could be improved on; the dips for the Bavarian pretzels. The flavor on the cinnamon butter was very good, I just wish they whipped it to get rid of the grittiness from the sugar. and the cheese sauce is straight from a can. It's not bad, just nothing special, and with all of the housemade sauces I think they could do better. read more

I like how customizable the burgers are at Basement Burger Bar, and I like the friendly atmosphere. I do not like the parking situation there. Too many good restaurants with too few spots to park; it's a pain. Still, if you are in the mood for a tasty burger, some yummy toppings, tots, and a good beer selection, you should check out the Basement Burger Bar. read more
