In the Lower Huron Metropark area and hungry for lunch, I considered my options in New Boston, and…read morepicked McNasty's Saloon pretty much just because of the name. Arriving at the establishment, I felt kind of like a trailer-park girl, `cause I kept walking round the outside, round the outside, trying to find my way in: the front door with the green carpet and leprechaun awning was locked, while other doors were marked private. Eventually I figured out the un-assuming and un-labelled door under the porch at the back was actually the entrance. Inside, I found a half-dozen locals (which is always a good sign at 12:45pm on a random Monday) served by two employees. Catching the eye of one of the staff when he went to take a hit on his vape, I asked if I could grab a table for lunch. "Sit anywhere, bro" was his relaxed response. Tiffany, the waitress and bartender, introduced herself and gave me a menu shortly after I selected a table near the (locked) front door. While the menu had a lot of options, the details were hard to read due to the combination of saloon lighting, small print, and middle-aged eyes. However, easy to read on the menu were the warnings: just one soda refill! Additional charge on to-go orders! Specials to go get an extra extra charge! Eventually I ordered an Almost World Famous 1/2 lb McNasty burger with pepper jack cheese (+50¢ upcharge), onion rings ($1.99 upcharge) and a soda. After ordering, I asked Tiffany where the restroom was located, and went to wash up before my food arrived. The men's room was about as disheveled as one might expect at a bar. Tellingly, the trashcan was 'already' full at 12:55pm. 'Nuff said. All things considered, the food came out pretty quickly. The onion rings were piping hot, the lettuce and onion on the burger were crisp, and the beef patty was as thick as advertised. To her credit, Tiffany checked on me several times, and brought me my one free soda refill (I was sure to remind myself to drink slowly, lest I have to pay the extra drink upcharge). With tax, my bill was just over $15, which felt pretty typical. Since she did a great job, I gave my waitress a 32% tip. PROS: decent food at a decent price, attentive waitress CONS: getting inside was not straightforward, restroom was below average, menu was a minefield of upcharges Overall I found McNasty's Saloon to be Good, and would return.

This restaurant offers a welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere with a relaxed, laid-back vibe that makes it easy to settle in and enjoy a meal. The staff consistently provides attentive service, always accompanied by a genuine smile, which adds to the overall positive experience. The menu highlights are clear: the burgers are outstanding--juicy, flavorful, and well-prepared. For a fun and satisfying side, the tater tots are a must-order; they're crisp, playful, and perfect for sharing. The chicken wings, however, could benefit from some refinement. I often rely on their take-out service about once a month, especially on nights when I don't have time to cook. It's always reliable, and my family enjoys the food just as much at home as they do in the restaurant. Overall, this spot delivers consistently enjoyable meals in a comfortable setting. Their excellent burgers, friendly service, and a welcoming atmosphere makes it well worth a visit. Give it a try--you're unlikely to be disappointed. read more

Drinks are extremely reasonable: a generously poured whiskey sour cost $7, and a 23 ounce Final Absolution (a 10% alcohol brew) was only $10 ($7.75 for 16 ounces). Reasonable pricing extended to the food. A Brussels sprouts appetizer only set us back $7, and the three mahi-mahi tacos tacos (that's the name) were $13. The Brussels sprouts were tasty - cooked from fresh sprouts and drizzled with a balsamic reduction - but they were cold. This was not a creative choice on the part of the chef. The tacos were also tasty, fresh fishy chunks in tiny soft corn tortillas. They were served with sour cream and salsa, but were even better with the spicy aioli that came with the sprouts (which didn't need them). They were also slightly over cooked and also cold. Even the drinks were cold!! What's this world coming to? Seriously, the service was slow, but the server was friendly. The food and the prices are good enough that I will want to make the trip here again, even if iI'm not flying. But, I won't come here if I have to catch a flight.

No choking was done here (thank god) but there were some things that jumped out to us. First is the setup, it looked like a place trying to be fancy when you walk in only to realize they give up on that when you get to the tables. Plain white walls with no seats at the high top tables near the bar and chairs in a disheveled manner, it looked like someone made a half-effort to clean the aftermath of a house party gone crazy for their parents about to arrive. Fortunately they sat us at a booth near the bar which thankfully was set up with silverware and such. As for service, we had an attentive server but she was handling the tables at the bar plus the bar itself and had to make all the drinks for people. Made me realize why I'm glad I'm no longer in the service industry with all the running around. My first glass of wine came quickly as did my dad's iced tea but refills took some time so yes, getting beverages or quick items took patience. I will give her an 'A' for effort as she ran faster than the Lions defenders trying to recover a fumble. Now the eats, we started with buffalo & sesame soy wings which my Dad loved but I thought eh, maybe it was the size of them and how some were crispy and some were tender. Afterwards, we got entrees: Me: Memphis BBQ Burger w/ Baked Potato and side of Broccoli Dad: Detroit Sliders w/ Onion Rings and side of Broccoli The burger was surprisingly tender and a perfect Medium and the BBQ sauce and crispy onions with bacon was a nice touch. Dad thought the sliders were ok; a bit bland. But he loved the onion rings as did I. The Broccoli was also tasty too; who says veggies have to be boring!? After dinner, we got a pecan pie for dessert (free dessert with check-in) and I added an irish coffee to help wash things down. The pie was excellent; the best part of the meal in my opinion. So the food is hit/miss but the food/drink prices are favorable. Plus the free dessert upon check-in is dope. Should I stay in this area again, I would probably pop back in for some cheap drinks and a quick bite.

I asked Ray if I could stay inside and she graciously answered yes. I motioned my wife to enter as she has a hard time with stairs and was willing to wait until 10 AM, but came at my bidding. My wife order the Carne Asada fries and a fountain Coke. She love the fries. I ordered a double cheeseburger slider with bacon ( about $5 ) with grilled onions as standard. The bacon was PERFECT!! Chewy, but fully done; no white fat but opaque fully cooked! Awesome burger. 9 out of 10. I also ordered a raspberry shake. It was good ( 6 out of 10 ) and shared it with my wife. Maybe I am spoiled by super sweet chocolate shakes from White Castle. A pricey over $6. Perhaps skip this one or try a malt. I also ordered Chili Cheese Fries. Bless her heart, Ray cooked mine to perfection, well done fries, melted real sliced American cheese, and she put my chili in a side bowl as requested so I could dip the cheese covered ones on the chili ( I stirred in their hot sauce) and the few uncovered fries, dipped into my raspberry shake. Amazingly delicious. 10 out of 10 for each item: crinkle cut fries, coney beef chili ( NO BEANS!!! ) , and great cheese. Chili should NEVER HAVE BEANS!!! Finally I split a deep fried churro un-filled with cinnamon sugar. 7 out of 10. We took most of that home and I ate some during this review. One silly tiny note. The one unisex bathroom ( the restaurant only has 21 stool seats ) had only one working light bulb in the fixture out of 2 or 3. It was very dim like a seedy bar. I told Ray so hopefully it gets fixed soon. If that last bulb goes in there, I hope whoever is in there has their cellphone flashlight working. Finally the overall vibe is stainless steel lunch counter ( 1950's? ) with a deep kitchen. Seven short stools facing the street, Nine facing the kitchen and a very small tall table with Five matching tall stools. That lone table could be crowded with two customers food, but five? Better only have a beverage and one item, and that would be elbow to elbow. Shout out to Detroit Food Review for his October 3, 2025 review for here. That is how we found it. They do have a drive through if you do not want to climb the three stairs or use the ramp or if the restaurant is full inside.
