Both the hostess and our server were friendly and attentive, and the menu offered a great variety of options. We arrived around 1:45 p.m., and unfortunately they were already out of both the gyros and corned beef. Even so, we found plenty of other tempting choices. I ordered the Garlic Mushroom Burger without the bun, topped with bacon and jalapeños, along with a side of roasted garlic green beans. My husband ordered the Chorizo Ranchero Omelette, which came with a choice of one side plus toast or pancakes, and he added a side of sausage. At first, the prices seemed a little high, but once our meals arrived, it was clear why. It looked like each plate had been prepared by a chef. The portions were generous, the quality was excellent, and the food was well worth the price. Despite a couple of menu items being unavailable, we had a satisfying dining experience and would definitely return.

I would never go here again idk if it was a manager or the owner but he's a straight dick no respect for him at all and most likely going to run the place to the ground how he treats people. And it was like they had some 10 year olds learning how to cook. Place was a shit hole I'd rather stop at Burger King read more

Old Detroit Burger Bar has a fun location right in downtown Lapeer, surrounded by locally owned…read morebusinesses. After lunch, it's easy to spend some time walking around, grabbing ice cream, checking out the nearby thrift shop, or just relaxing on one of the shaded benches under the trees and enjoying the small-town atmosphere. The restaurant itself has a cool bar vibe with dark wood, automotive-themed décor, and plenty of Detroit-inspired burger names. Even on a Friday afternoon, the place was busy with people enjoying drinks, so I can definitely see it being a popular hangout. The service was excellent. Our waitress was attentive, checked on us often, and kept our pop refills coming without us ever having to ask. Our food arrived quickly, hot, and fresh. The burgers were large, juicy, and had some creative topping combinations. I ordered one topped with a fried egg, expecting the yolk to add richness like it usually does on a burger, but the egg was completely cooked through with no runny yolk at all, so it didn't really add much. Overall, I found the burgers to be underseasoned. They looked great, but the flavor was a little flat and could have used more seasoning. The waffle fries were crispy and probably my favorite part of the meal. I also ordered a side of cheese sauce to dip them in, but it was so thick and gelatinous that I couldn't even get a fry into it, which was disappointing. We also ordered the corned beef egg rolls, which were very greasy. The outside was crispy, but the wrapper was thick and a bit doughy inside. The house-made ranch, however, was excellent and paired well with the fries. For three burgers, one appetizer, three pops, and about a $100 bill, I expected the food to wow me a little more. It wasn't bad by any means, I just wasn't as impressed as I expected based on all the rave reviews. If the food had a little more seasoning and the egg rolls, cheese sauce, and overall execution were improved, I'd enjoy it much more. I'd still give it another try, especially for the atmosphere, location, and outstanding service.

I wasn't too hungry, so I went with the Coney Island dog with tots. The hot dog was a decent size, topped with lightly seasoned ground beef and cheese. I personally would have liked a little more seasoning, but it still hit the spot and made for an easy, satisfying lunch. The tots were very tasty and, thankfully, not greasy, which I really appreciated. One of my colleagues ordered the double cheeseburger with fries, and wow, it looked delicious and huge. There was a lot of beef on that burger, and seeing the size of it made me glad I went with the coney because I definitely would not have been able to finish what he ordered. All in all, it was a decent, affordable lunch with quick service and good comfort food. I'll be back sometime to try their breakfast, since I've heard it's really good.

No substitutions." For our sides we ordered onion rings, sweet potato fries, pit beans, and macaroni and cheese as our sides. Appetizer - Chips and Queso tasted like nothing - bland. Meats - Brisket had good flavor, but dry. Instead of "fall off the bone" this rib meat was sealed to the bone. Dry. Chicken did not taste good. Pulled pork was decent - average. Sausage was flavorful. Burnt ends were delicious. Sides - Pit beans had good flavor - very sweet. Sweet potato fries were just sliced potato - no salt. Onion rings were solid but the onions were massive so they kinda just slid out of the batter. Macaroni and cheese was by far the biggest letdown. So bland. Cornbread was sweet but not overpowering. Total was $77 before tip and overall super disappointing. I hope to have good barbecue in Michigan one day, but today is not that day. We would not return.
