    New exciting Burger Mushroom n Swiss a 5 napkin star Love it
    Al P.

    Lunch cheaper than a Dozen Paczki, Love them Wimpy Burgers. Just released the new Mushroom n Swiss Double Patty Burger OMG. A 5 napkin Burger with a Soup like loaded with Mushrooms outstanding and sloppy. The Boom Boom Burger supplies the perfect amount of heat . She had Chicken Tenders, Fries, Onion Rings and Chili spot on Wonderful. Step back into the 50's old school cool diner. Place packed at lunch hour, all stools filled front counter with hungry folks. Unique design of memories from our childhood. Fun friendly service and low prices make this a must visit. Only our 2nd visit since opening 8 years ago. We took I-75 to Gibraltar road, just a few blocks before Telegraph.

    A small unassuming local almost dive place. With the pandemic and all, I wasn't able to go inside,but walked up to the carry-out window and placed an order at 8:45 on a Thursday. I'm a Detroit native, use to greasy little onion packed sliders with a soft bun, packed in white wax paper, and these were that! Although not as good as my Local Telways- these definitely earned a place in my rotation. Buy a sack of 6 for 7.99 or a pack of 6 Cheeseburgers for 8.99. The cool thing is, they have more than just regular sliders. See the menu below. The fries are crinkle cut fries,and the chili is pretty darn tasty. They offer shakes and other items too. I've had better Coney Dogs, but it was more because of the hot dog they used, and not the bun, chili, and onions. There was no snap, and I love a snap. The pro was, they are grill cooked! I'll definitely return, these are the little places that we need to keep alive and going. Small eating area inside, and lots of picnic tables outside. Grab a bag of burgers and eat outside.

    I had never heard of this place before until Yelp friend Kara W. checked in. I looked it up on Google Maps and saw that it was only about a 5-10 minute drive from my boyfriend's apartment. Deliciousness, close by?? Sounds good! We tried it out this Sunday. It is a tiny little place, similar to Hunter House in Birmingham, and I'd say their burgers (sliders) are on par with Hunter House's - each one is only 2 ounces, but very tasty. I tried one burger, a corn dog, and the Chicago dog; the corn dog was delicious, but the Chicago dog was a little too sweet for my taste - I think the relish or something was sweeter than what I'm used to. My boyfriend got FIVE (yes, five) sliders and really enjoyed them. We also split a large order of fries but it was pretty small ... not sure what the small order of fries would look like, then. You can choose to either do takeout or take a seat - everything is bar-counter style. I was surprised there was waitservice there, actually, as I assumed that you'd order at the counter and then sit. Our waitress had only been working there for three days, she said, but was very friendly, and I appreciated being welcomed when we arrived and being said "bye" to as we left - a lot of restaurants don't do that. Overall for cheap eats I'd come back here. Our bill was about $15 before tip but that's because we ordered so much food (6 sliders, a corn dog, a Chicago dog, and fries). They also have carryout specials, including ~$7.50 for 6 sliders, I believe.

    We were playing a small baseball tournament nearby and had a break in between games. Closest establishment also happened to be the highest rated: Wimpy Burger. We told some teammates we were going to go there no matter what. We ordered burgers, chili cheese fries, milk shakes and all were excellent. Pretty soon the entire place was full with our team and the staff handled everyone perfectly. Fantastic service, great small diner atmosphere, and phenomenal diner food. Hopefully our travels take us back that way so we can go to Wimpys again.

    I've been here once before a longtime ago but I don't remember much. The waitresses were very friendly, good service. Donut burger was different, both we really liked it. I would get it again. Chicago dog was exactly what I wanted, I had been thinking about one all week! It was so good my fiancé ordered one to go. Cheeseburger was good as well. We will be back!

    Their burgers put you in the mind of Carters or Watkins. Good food good service good prices. Fries, Chicken, Shakes are real good.

    I like it! Crab cakes: two crab patties with a spicy…read morechipotle mayo (i think) and if I recall accurately, a mango salsa. French Onion soup: it was FULL of onion. Oh yes, please. Adequate cheese and bread on top. Unique flavor; a hit. Jamaican something or other Salmon steak with crunchy fresh green beans and pineapple (i think) infused white rice. Emphatic yes. Michigan Cherry Salad looks yummy and plentiful. Staff: super welcoming, attentive and friendly. I enjoyed it a lot. The location is surprising because it's inside what I think is the Humbug Marina. It's a quaint little area. It's an archipelago and some houses have a canal in their backyard leading out to Lake Erie. It's a boater's hangout. All good news.

    They have a lovely setting but it can get VERY loud inside. We've been here 3 times and only once…read morewas it quiet enough to hear my companion's conversations. (1pm Sunday). The perch dinner was good but getting vegetables instead of fries and a salad instead of coleslaw incurred two up charge too bad they couldn't have interchangeable sides. The Rueben and BBQ sandwiches were plentiful and enjoyed by my in laws fries were an additional cost, but the sweet potato waffle fries were some of the best I've ever tasted. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

    JP Waterfront - JP Burger ($5.99 on Mondays Plus Add-Ons 7/24/23). IMO, best burger deal around for a GREAT burger.
