    Avocado burger!!!
    Yuko S.

    We went at noon on Saturday. The avocado burger was good with garlic mayonnaise! The fried sweet potato fries were awesome with sweet mustered. We will be back for dinner next time!

    Honey Siracha Wings
    Chiara N.

    Wow!!!! Some of my favorite wings I've never had. This was my first visit to the Basement Burger Bar and decided to try the Honey Siracha Wings off of their specials menu. Sooooo so good. The wings were perfectly crispy, the meat was juicy, and the sauce was insane. Fries were also perfect! I will have to be back to try a burger. This was an awesome first visit!

    Overcooked onion rings good hamburger with crispy onion straws.

    The food was good. The fries were the best though. They were crispy on the outside and like mashed potatoes inside. The burgers were all cooked to perfection each person at my table ordered it a different temperature and it all came up correctly. Onion rings left a little something to be desired they were definitely overcooked to the point of not even having an onion inside. And I'm not sure how I feel about all the a la carte editions as far as toppings. But the service was great The atmosphere was nice lots of TVs to watch sports plenty of creative alcoholic beverages. We got sat right away in our server was responsive. I would go back.

    My burger, Swiss cheese, mushrooms, egg, and bbq sauce on a pretzel bun.

    As might have been seen from my earlier reviews of Basement Burger Bar, this was our go to burger place. But, this last visit - I don't even know what to say. My daughter wanted a burger and we headed to Basement. First they told us there was a wait. Fair enough. We added our name to the list (3rd one down). After 30 mins we noticed their outside tables had all turned over. We had to go back in to get a table, where we were conveniently "next on the list". So, we sat, and sat, and sat, and sat. Wait staff looked at us. Walked by us. We ended up leaving.

    I love the food and drinks! I especially enjoyed sitting at the bar with Hailey serving drinks. She was pleasant and friendly.

I ordered a western burger with large fry, but removed the corned beef. The burger itself was delicious, the patties were well seasoned and cooked perfectly. They were quite juicy and melted in the mouth. The brioche bun was as expected, although it did get a little bit, soggy due to the generous amounts of sweet/sugary Kansas City style barbecue sauce, which was also delicious. The onion ring that was part of the burger was crispy on the outside and not too mushy on the inside just how it should be. Next time I'll add bacon and some jalapeños to the burger to balance the sweet barbecue sauce. The french fries were delicious, crispy exterior with soft, fluffy interior and just the right amount of salt. Although I did not order seasoned fries, I was very happy with the regular unseasoned one. I can imagine that the seasoned fries would be even better. Overall a great burger and excellent fries, I would recommend this to others.

For my first visit here I got their basic cheeseburger where I added Bacon and a second patty upgrading from a 1/4 pounder to a 1/2 Lb burger. My Burger was cooked to perfection and probably the juiciest burger I have had in this area (get extra napkins(: ). It was very tasty and clearly in the upper echelon of the burgers I have tried. At $10.50 which included the two upgrades of bacon and 2nd patty was a deal in my opinion especially when you consider the quality of the burger. Relative to staff and facility, the staff was very friendly and checked in on me twice during my meal to include the owner which is amazing when you consider this is a counter order operation. Facility itself is clean and large with a lot of tables, both indoor and outdoor dining. This restaurant has an open kitchen/grill that is visible to the dining area offering great sight lines into their operation which I actually enjoyed. Overall a top shelf unpretentious burger centric joint. If you are into well made tasty burgers and are in the area than this is a must visit that should not be missed!

I've been to McLaren many times without noticing it: like most of the buildings along this stretch of 8 Mile Road, it has a boxy look that doesn't stand out. But, it was time for lunch, so I followed my coworkers across the street. I had just had a burger the day before, so I got the Cuban Panini instead. Sandwiches come with fries or tots, and can be upgraded to onion rings for $3. There were 10 of us, but we got our food quickly. I didn't actually count them, but it seemed like there were about 40 tater tots on my plate. And, they were perfectly crispy. As for the Cuban, I was intrigued by the addition of avocado. Unfortunately, it was swimming in mayo, which it definitely didn't need. Once the mayo was wiped away and mustard was added, it revealed a solid sandwich, though there wasn't as much pork as I'd want in a Cubano. Sandwiches start at $13, which is a great price for a massive sandwich with fries included. Considering the great service, this is a perfect lunch spot....now that I know it's here.
