    The burgers are small but they give you a lot of skin-on crispy fries. The ambiance is non-existent. And, they only have Pepsi products as far as beverages go... and no Diet Mountain Dew!

    The most dirtiest restaurant with unprofessional staff. I visited there on last Sunday. The order taker was busy in taking orders on phone instead of taking care of the person standing in front of him. He took two orders in my presence right in front of him. Restaurant floor was dirty and you can see soda all over the floor. Bathroom was nasty and smelly. I am still giving 1 star just because food taste was not bad.

    Everything I've tried so far is delicious. I had their Classic CB Burger, Gorilla Burger, and regular fries. The fries are okay. Nothing too special but they tasted fine. But the burgers were incredible, especially the Classic CB Burger. I was more of a fan of the brioche bun over the pretzel bun personally but that just boils down to preference. What really stands out is the sauce and the freshness of the patty. The sauce is reminiscent of In N Out spread. Very similar. I lived in Vegas most of my life so it was nice to have something so similar to a staple in Vegas when it comes to fresh burgers. Burgers were cooked to perfection, not messy, and not too greasy. You could taste the freshness. And like i said, the CB sauce is absolutely incredible. If you want a great burger, this is the place to go.

    I ordered the salmon burger fries and milkshake. It was good. The service was good. The owner was there. The ambiance is similar to in and out, which was the goal I assume. 10/10 experience.

    I really enjoyed this place. Came here on a whim on a weekday because I wanted a burger but I didn't want to go to a big chain like Red Robin and I didn't want to go to Five Guys. Yelp directed me to California Burgers and it wasn't too far of a drive so I said why not. The atmosphere is cute, a small place with booths and tables. It had kind of an old Diner theme with checkerboard. You go in and order at the counter and then wait for your food at your table. Service: our food was up relatively quickly maybe 12 minutes or so. The waitress who took our order at the counter was very nice and friendly and checked on us throughout our meal from her spot at the counter. She also came out occasionally and cleaned off tables which was nice to see that they didn't let stuff sit on the table for too long. The burgers themselves or very good they were actually cooked the way that I asked which was medium. The fries were delicious. One of the burgers came with the special twister fries so instead of up charging to add it to my combo she just made me aware that one, was already coming with them so that I wouldn't be overcharged. The bacon on the burger was amazing and crispy and they put a very good amount as compared to other restaurants that give you two small slices. The vegetables on my burger like lettuce tomato and pickles and onions were crisp and fresh and beautifully cut. The burgers came wrapped inwax deli paper and that was helpful when trying to take my first couple of bites it helps to hold the burger together. And the burger patties are quite thick so it was nice to have extra help. I have small hands. Next time I want a burger without a crowd or wait I'll be keeping this place in mind. The price wasn't much more than I would have paid at a fast food place but the quality was so much better. I hope they keep it up.

    So i take my burgers very seriously . I was in Hamtramck and I thought lets give this place a try. The plave looks new and the employees are very friendly. The whole place gives you the vibe of the good burger in Dearborn. The menu is also kinda same which can be a total coincidence. I took the chicken burger. The burger looked nice but the lattice inside was not fresh. Other than that the taste was good. The size was ok as well. For the price I expected better but it wasn't bad either. Now This is for the owners. You need timo hire more people if you wish to run this place nicely. The kids had made a big mess on the floor and someone needed to clean it but the staff was so busy that they couldn't. All in all not a bad experience

    Drove 30 min to try these burgers and it was well worth it. A must try for anyone who is a burger enthusiast! This place looks like a family owned restaurant chain in the west coast . Next time I'm in or near town, I'm definitely going back.

    Oh my...

    This place has the best burgers, hands down. I will make the trip from Mt Clemens to Hamtramck for one of these delicious, perfect, incredible burgers! Everything is made fresh, which is why it takes about ten minutes for your order to be ready. Completely with the wait! The halal meat is full of flavor, and cooked perfectly. And I love the special sauce. The fries are also served hot and fresh. The twisted fries are especially good! If you are looking for an amazing burger, forget the trendy overpriced places downtown and stop here. My combo was $10.99 for a double with fries (I couldn't finish them all) and a soda.

    Even the sliders (baby burgers) are worth the price. I would pick this over McDonalds.

    I've been coming to this spot since around 2006, and it used to be one of my absolute favorites…read more It's still fairly good, but over time I've noticed a shift in the overall experience as longtime staff has aged out and newer, younger staff has come in. They recently renovated the interior, and I do really like the update--using lighter colors has brightened the space and made it feel more modern. Unfortunately, a recent experience seriously impacted my opinion. I called to place a takeout order for about five people from my workplace, and the young man who answered the phone--Adrian--was extremely rude. He seemed impatient from the start, and by the time I was giving the third order, he began huffing and puffing, talking over me, and rushing me. Before I could even finish, he hung up on me. His coworkers were saying his name in the background, which is how I learned who he was. Adrian's behavior showed a complete lack of basic customer service and professionalism, and it did not represent Maine Street well at all. If answering phones and taking orders is part of the job, then patience and respect should be a given. Adrian needs serious improvement in customer service, because that interaction alone was enough to make me reconsider ordering again. On a lighter note, this place has long been part of the fabric of Hamtramck, and that's why this experience was so disappointing. Hamtramck has always taken pride in its local spots, community, and hospitality, and I hope Maine Street gets back to reflecting the warmth and care that made so many of us loyal customers for years.
