Decided to give this place a try on Memorial Day weekend and went specifically for happy hour deals and also decided to eat dinner. Happy hour: well drinks $4 (great deal), wine and margarita good deals too. Note that craft beer was not on happy hour (disappointing). Appeared only bottled beers were on happy hour; wish that beer on tap was at least some discount like $1 off would be a nice perk. Craft beer tall was $8.50. Ouch. (Even the local river edge's brewery doesn't charge that much.) Select appetizers were $7. Pretzels were okay. Not very good flavoring and a little tough chewy for our liking. The mustard was more honey mustard texture instead of stone mustard that I prefer with pretzels. The beet cheese was good. They do give a generous amount of beer cheese. Main course/meals: husband got the Alabama smash burger which he said was good and flavorful. Fries were good with a nice coating. I had the steak tacos. I do want to note I have a tomato allergy so needed to make some modifications and also don't like grilled onions. However I was very disappointed with the steak tacos. They were very small size (like appetizer to me) and all it had was the steak and melted cheese. Lettuce and avocado would have gave these some flavor. I asked for a side of beer cheese with the tortilla chips since I could have salsa. I was upcharged $3. Very confusing because bill said it was taken off then it was added back on at the bottom of the bill?! They have a bar area that is separate from the rest of the restaurant. They have a lot of seating with a mix of tables and booths. Bill was $70 for 2 tall beers, 1 well drink, 1 appetizer, burger and tacos. Plus tip was almost $90. Disappointing and not worth the money. Many other places locally that you get more food and drinks for the money. read more

A quick stop before heading to the airport! Was in town visiting friends for Memorial Day weekend! We were immediately seated outside, server came shortly after. We decided to just share some apps! So we ordered some garlic Parmesan boneless wings, cheese curds and black label nachos! Everything was amazing! Came out hot and fresh! We did struggle a bit to find our server for our check. Unsure if they were just busy or he got side tracked! Can't wait to be back! read more

Once again great service, great food. And Cassidy the bartender was on top of it the whole evening with are group of 8. Second Saturday in a row amazing service from her. She is outstanding!! Always smiling and great attitude. See you soon Cassidy. From the big top party. read more

SO GOOD!! One of my top 3 restaurants in the neighborhood! Out of all the places that offer Truffle Fries, Black Label has the BEST version, hands down. They are hot and crispy, and the creamy truffle sauce with fresh Rosemary adds an herbaceous twist on the classic Parmesan-topped appetizer. When you stop in for a bite to eat, don't forget to order the Crispy Brussels Sprouts, as they are another delicious pre-meal snack. The salads, wraps, and sandwiches are unique and creative, and always built with delicious seasonal ingredients. My husband loves the Bourbon Chicken, Forest Chicken, and the Taco Trio. They all taste too good to be true for a little tavern in Milford! Service is consistently fast and efficient, and the waitstaff is kind, fun, and friendly. If you don't know what you want to eat or drink, they always have suggestions when you ask! The atmosphere is warm and classic, yet modern and cool at the same time. The bar area is spacious and inviting, and there's an outdoor patio with comfy seating and fire features at some of the tables. I highly recommend swinging by Black Label for a drink and a snack, if not a full meal with family and friends :) read more

Good food, but the service was really slow -- it took us 20 minutes just to order. And it took a total of 2 and a half hours just to eat!!!!!! I mean really really terrible service!!! read more

What can you improve? Everything. Food, service, prices. And hire a new manager. Her customer service skills are seriously lacking. We won't be returning because of her rude, nasty behavior. read more

We were a party of 8. Drinks were brought promptly. Appetizer portions were a little too small to share especially the Brussels sprouts and pretzel sticks. I got the Cobb salad as my entree and it was a big portion and tasted great. A couple of people's entrees were brought late. Overall would go again. Good value too. read more

Food here is very tasty with good service. The Fish and chips were excellent.. along with prime rib sandwich. Good prices on the luncheon menu.. read more

Highly recommend We visited Black Label Tavern in Milford for the first time with a group of ten, and it was fantastic from start to finish. The food was absolutely delicious -- from appetizers to dessert, every dish hit the mark. The service was friendly and efficient, even with a large party. We felt welcomed and well taken care of the entire time. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for great food, good vibes, and a place you'll definitely want to return to. We'll be back soon! read more

It was just ok, place was empty for lunch, 4 shrimp for 15 bucks n it was just ok Likely won't b back We had the chicken club, very uneventful Overall Improve better food n prices read more

I stopped by on a Saturday afternoon and it was pretty quiet and we got seated immediately. The menu has a nice overall selection and the service wasn't super quick but they might have been understaffed. Besides it's not fast food so it was fine. The burger is decent - not the best but not bad. A little light on salt but cooked right and nicely presented. The chicken wrap is tasty although a tad on the drier side. This is a solid place in Milford for a quality meal above the other nearby fast food options. They do make their own fried and chips which were very good. read more

Passing through Milford, I recognized the name Black Label Tavern from one in Livonia. With good reviews there, I figured I couldn't go wrong here if they were from the same ilk. We stopped in for lunch hoping to get a couple good sandwiches and a beer. Unfortunately our hopes ended there. The place is really kinda blah. It certainly has the same vibe, decor, and menu, but on a lessor rating. The food was mediocre and rather bland. The beer was not very cold. And the waitstaff was less than interested to be there. Prices were a little high for the quality of food. The LA club and the smoked brisket with fries and a side of asparagus was our lunch. Bland and bland with a side of bland. If I remember correctly, we paid $7 for six pieces of asparagus. I don't bother going into the bathroom to see about cleanliness. The rest of the place was like any other bar. The positive I took from the experience was that the place is definitely in a convenient location. Sorry BLT, I'll hit up a fast food place next time. read more

We had fish and chips it was outstanding the tartar sauce was made in house and it was very Good!! The coleslaw was fresh and crisp! The service was very very good the place was spotless! We will be back for more! Thank you! read more

Service was food. Wait staff was pleasant. Food quality seemed to depend on what was ordered. Steak tacos-tasty but somewhat unattractively presented. Accompanying chips were very hard, and slightly over seasoned. Steak bites were bland, some bits inedible due to gristle. The sauce seemed to be missing an ingredient. Fries were fine. The iced tea was the star of the meal. The patio was super sunny, but the umbrella was inoperable. The music was overly loud. The food was a bit oricy considering the (lack of) quality. We hadn't been in a while--and wont be back for a while! read more

Food was outstanding, service was great but the restaurant was way, way, way too loud!

First things first -- we sat at the bar on Saturday, 06/28 at about 5:15 PM and were greeted by Ella. We had two glasses of wine (Canyon Road Cabernet and Canyon Road Sauvignon Blanc -- both quite good) and an appetizer of the Volcano Shrimp. Ella was attentive , the wine was very nice and the shrimp appetizer was delicious. That's where our good review ends. We were then seated at a booth in the main dining area. It was quite noisy, and after 10 minutes we had not yet seen a service person. AS a result of the wait and the noise, I asked the hostess to reseat us in a booth in the bar area; much quieter. A waiter -- presumably the same waiter who didn't pick up on our presence in the main dining area -- took our orders. My wife ordered the Salmon BLT (special) and I ordered the Chicken Marsala (special). When our dinners arrived we asked the waitress (not our waiter) who dropped them off to get my wife a glass of water and another Sauvignon Blanc. Ten minutes later, I had to ask Ella (at the bar) to come to our rescue, as we were forgotten. We did not see our waiter until we had finished; then we waited another 15 minutes before seeing him again and asking for the check. Summary -- Bar service is the way to go here! We were simply unimpressed by the level and attentiveness of service at the dining tables. I will try the Livonia location next and see if this failing is endemic to the chain or just local in nature. I know one thing; I would gladly return but would opt to eat at the bar because the attentiveness we received from Ella was superb. read more

Things are good here . Lots of positives on food but it's very loud. Needs better acoustics.

Starting off with the appetizer: best pretzel breadsticks EVER. Hands down. You can tell these are freshly baked because when we cut into them they were super warm. ALSO, super soft, squishy, and delicious. I'm not a pretzel person, so this means a lot coming from me. I can see myself coming back just for the pretzel sticks again! The fish and chips was okay: my friend said that the cod would just fall apart so he wants a huge fan but the fries were well seasoned and the cod was tasty. Only issue here is that you probably needed a fork to eat them. My gosh filet was really delicious. Mashed potatoes and veggies were also good! I'm not a fan of eggplant, but luckily there was squash and carrots! My reason for a 5 star is because I loved the service (our server kept bringing us drink, checking up on us, and even the manager stopped at our table to ensure everything was going well) and I really enjoyed our meal. The ambiance is super relaxed and romantic in my opinion. There is an open bar area, but that seems to be in a corner so this would be a nice date spot! read more

Awesome time at black label. Great place good to watch the lions game food was great will come back and highly recommend

Highly recommend this restaurant! We were visiting friends for a get together with a large group (30+ppl). They accommodated our group in under an hour from the call in their banquet space! The waitress was ordered and efficient in taking all of the orders. The food for the entire party came out in about 30 minutes and was still hot! Kudos to the kitchen! The staff was friendly and the restaurant was clean! They have a beautiful outdoor space as well! Would definitely go back! Thank you for having exceptional customer service all around! That is hard to find now-a-days! read more

We had to wait about five minutes to be seated because there was no hostess. One of the servers came over to seat us, then ultimately took care of serving us as well. Our food was delicious! The service was great! I didn't see anyone who seemed to wait long for anything. The atmosphere in the bar, restaurant, and outdoor patio was stellar! Bathrooms were clean - even the floors and corners and wall trim, places that are often neglected in cleaning. I'd absolutely eat here again and think you should eat here too. read more

Food was decent, not amazing. Service was a bit scarce, but in all fairness there was a bunch of kids there for homecoming dinner.

first time here - reminds me of an upscale coney island with darker lighting. the staff was very attentive to the cleanliness and upkeep of the restaurant. our server was very upbeat and friendly. i really enjoyed the tempura-style batter on the firecracker shrimp. the cobb salad had great ingredients but the lettuce was questionable. enjoyed the french fries as well. i recommend more decorations. i would like to visit the bar side of the place next time i go in. read more

Service amazing!! Decent happy hour, nice inside ambiance , not sure if I will ever be back, I'd rather get the cheese sticks from down the street at red dog saloon read more

Stoop by the "please wait to be seated" sign for a while, then noticed server 5 ft from me. He was apparently programming the cash register (from scratch). He then asked if what I wanted, and I basically asked for a table for one. He let me seat myself and things improved from there. My order was quickly taken and delivered. A table of 8 arrived and they were quickly served as well. Who orders ice tea at a bar? I did, and this was amazingly good ice tea (dark and strong). The fries were perfect: these are thin cut with skin and a faint hint of breading, hot from the fried and not greasy. Burger was correctly cooked. That said, the bottom of the bun had drown in the water from the lettuce and tomato: soggy to a fault. Hmmmm... usually these items are put on top of the meat, and not underneath. The burger assembly itself was sloppy and what caused me to rank this a four and not a five. The free ice tea to go made this a strong four. read more

We have loved this place in the past. This year, something has changed. There is rarely a hostess at the front and have had to wait awhile for someone to show up to seat us. Last visit--had the steak tips special. They were overdone and so tough they were hard to cut. Also had the sliders. Had an odd taste--and the meat was super hot--like it had been microwaved. We are taking a vacation from this place! read more

Start-up kinks prevented slightly higher stars but I think they'll get there. Noisey environment - hard to hear the person across the table from me. Service was slow to start. We waited about 10 mins before anyone showed up at our table to take our order. M43 beer is very expensive in comparison to Becker's just down the road. $9 vs & $6 for a pint. Food quality is as expected for the price. Steak tacos (3) were amazing. I'd order them again. Fish and chips were good. On par with other beer battered fish found elsewhere. Battered in-house. Carrot cake was good - fresh and high quality. The piece was small for the cost but one piece can still be shared if you only want about 3 bites each which was enough for 2 of us. Wish I remembered to take pics! Presentation was good with everything we ordered. Nothing out of place. It's nice to have another option in the area! read more

Ordered take out from here real late and when I got there I was a little nervous if it was open or not. This is the second time we've eaten here and that I've had a burger. Best burgers cooked to order now twice in a row! The fries were a little too done but everything was good. We also got the Margherita Pizza. Good sauce and crust was okay. The steak bites were delicious as well. I think the biggest point to make here is that everything is cooked as ordered. We order all our meats between medium rare and medium and everything has been cooked perfectly twice visiting on different occasions. Well done! read more

Black Label Tavern - Black Label Burger and Sweet Potato Fries - Seafood Near Me - Milford, Michigan

This was, without a doubt, the worst dining experience I have ever had. We arrived at 6:15 PM and shockingly had to wait a full 30 minutes just to get water. Things only went downhill from there. It took another 40 minutes for our appetizer to arrive, which, to our horror, had a hair in it. I came to this restaurant eager to try it with my family after reading the positive reviews, but I left deeply disappointed. Our waitress was inattentive and barely acknowledged us throughout the entire ordeal. When our appetizer finally arrived, it was late, cold, and,, also had hair on it! This is simply unacceptable. We had young children with us who ended up waiting over an hour and a half for their food. After repeatedly asking to speak with the manager, we were met with a dishonest attempt to send another waiter pretending to be the manager. Even then, the service remained rude and unprofessional. By 7:50pm our food was still not ready. At that point, we were exhausted and just wanted to leave. With two toddlers under four years old who were starving, we simply could not wait any longer. This was a thoroughly disappointing experience, and I will never return to this restaurant. read more

The food is pretty good, but we are going to have to stop going there. The service last night in the bar was non-existent. Not sure if we offended the server in the bar, but she would not wait on us. 50 minutes to get our food, our appetizers came out just before our meal and was cold, so I have to imagine they were just sitting back in the kitchen. Definitely did not feel welcome there - definitely not a good ambiance. The "quiet talking" bartender / server walked by us multiple times without stopping to check on our drinks, never introduced herself or even said, thank you for coming even though we thanked her. read more

Been here twice now. First time they were out of power but serving salads and drinks. Was there for a craft night. It was a little crazy but my salad was really good. Last night went back for a bday dinner. Surprised they did not offer a bday dessert. I had stuffed pasta and it was very good and really for me, just enough. We had the Brussels sprouts and pretzels and both also very good. Everyone in our party seemed to enjoy what they had for dinner as well. No espresso martinis tho . Might go back tomorrow to try something else read more

This is one of my very favorite places in Milford... the service, the food, the atmosphere... all of it makes me return time and time again!! They make my visit even better because they truly care about their customers! read more

Sat down at around 12:17 and it's going on 12:53 on a Saturday with about 3 other sets of guests in the building. 3 people sitting at the bar as well. A party of 4 sat down 10 minutes after we did and are already receiving their food. Waitress is nice, but I think there's a bit of kitchen mis-coordination taking place as our food took an additional 10 minutes. Looks like a party is going on in the next area.... Cheese with the pretzel sticks is VERY watery. Not of a normal consistency you would find with a cheddar or beer cheese at any other establishment. And the mustard was a sweet, vinegary one. Pass on the pretzels. Burger was good, well cooked and the fries were well done as I asked. Nice atmosphere, nice decor, but for a first time experience they're scoring low on the totem pole. Side note: I think our waitress, doing more tables than anyone else. There was a "Pretty Boy" waiter walking around making conversation with every table. I mean, like 2 minute convos, even after taking the order. I think the credit card machine hanging out of his back pocket had him distracted. BUT, our girl was scampering from kitchen to table like a warrior as she may have been the lucky one with the party. We placed the uneaten pretzels on the end of the table hoping for the clean cut guy in the red shirt (I think I caught his name as Michael) to take notice, but his attention was more on taking calls and directing staff than popping in once and a while to see if things are ok even after passing by us 4 times. At the end, they didn't ask about the pretzels and why we sent them back. So if you don't like something, don't expect them to ask about it but freely charge you without issue. Long story short: pay attention to your patrons. Soooo, will we come back? Possibly. I'll have to wait for more reviews to hit to see if it's improved. read more

Ive been to this restaurant 4 times. Today I went as I had a very bad experience a few months back but thought id give them another chance. As last time the 1/2 hr n no one got our order for even drinks. At bar. NO.... never got our pizza and bartender tried to lie about it. Dont appreciate that. Did it ever occur to you that we might know how long a pizza cooks. Too bad. Awful service. Its a shame too.Nice location. read more
