Cutters Bar & Grill in the Eastern Market District absolutely delivered! The burgers are incredible -- juicy hand-pattied burgers cooked perfectly. I went with the stuffed cheddar bacon burger cooked medium well with seasoned fries, and everything was outstanding. The fries are hand-cut and some of the best I've had -- crispy, flavorful, and the perfect complement to the burger. The atmosphere is welcoming, relaxed, and perfect for hanging out with friends or catching a game. Plenty of TVs throughout for sports fans, plus bottled beer and liquor available. The table service was excellent -- friendly, attentive, and made the entire experience even better. Great food, great vibe, and definitely a spot I'll be returning to! read more

We went here yesterday about 7pm. Apparently it was throwback Thursday. There was a live DJ. I had 10 hot honey wings with fries & about 3 green tea martinis. They have some good happy hour drink deals. Unfortunately if you dont ask about them then they'll never tell you. Theres no happy hour menu. $5 henno and titos $6long island $7 ritas $9 greentea I loved the wings and they were saucy! The fries weren't so great. Should've cooked longer and maybe had fresher grease. The bartender didn't know how to greet ppl. She had 1 foot on the stand behind the bar as she sat on the counter. She was singing and acting like she was about to drink/neck the bottle as it was on the counter. She seemed unprofessional. . . Once ppl she knew arrived, she started drinking and became friendlier. We told her she's holding out on the drink specials && she said "well, you didn't ask". We had to flag her down for every thing. If we wanted water refill, another drink, the togo box and a bill... i brung 8 ppl here and we all thought the service could be better. My food came out fast but my one friend arrived before me and said her burger took about 40mins. read more

I used to frequent Cutter's often in the early 2000's. They have been around for a while. The steak bites, burgers, and wings are all great. I stopped in with a friend to watch the game and unfortunately the game was only playing on one tv. There was a DJ playing and the music was super loud. The air was on blast to where it made my food cold. We ordered steak bites dinner and a broccoli and cheese potato. I asked for mushrooms and onions with my steak but I was brought onions and peppers. I told the waitress that that wasn't what I asked for and she said they must've ran out, she still charged us for the mushrooms and peppers. I had to ask for condiments. Service wasn't great but also could've been worse. read more

Cutter's Bar & Grill - Great place for Friday happy hour! Top shelf Long Island. - Sports Bars Near Me - Detroit, Michigan

Delicious! And stuffed with toppings as you can see. This salad was so fresh and the wait time was maybe 15 minutes. The barmaid was extremely nice and continuously checked to see if anything was needed. She gave me 4 containers of ranch dressing. There was nothing skimpy about this restaurant. The ambiance was quiet on an early Saturday afternoon. read more

Heard so many good things about Cutters and was extremely disappointed. Very underwhelming. No need to ever return. The waitress was nice nasty. Moving to fast, never gave us her name, appeared irritated with our requests...she was to busy talking to her friends at another table. I had to call her over a couple times. The food was horrible. Two of us were served cold wings. When we asked for new ones she said they were being friend to order. Absolutely no way. Cold to the touch. I requested replacement of catfish bites n fries. The fish was greasy as it left standing grease on my plate, the fries were cold and tasted of old grease. The atmosphere was basic. Nothing special. Bar was actually a little cold. I've had good bar food and Cutters isn't it. It's unfortunate really. Good food and service keeps people coming in. read more

We stopped in for an early lunch. I usually get the steak bites here but opted for the Cutter burger this time. This is an excellent burger stuffed with bacon and cheddar cheese on top. Service, as always, was very kind and friendly. The area is clean and welcoming. I'm glad we had a chance to come back. read more

Ok don't be fooled by the appearance. 11/8/2025 we were at the Eastern Vintage Market and just happened to come across this place. OMG, it's FABULOUS! The staff is welcoming and attentive and the place is clean and fun. Probably the best texas toast I've ever had and the onion rings, OMG simply amazing. My chicken tenders were flavorful with spices and FANTASTIC too. My husband had fries with his quesadillas and he loved! The serving sizes are on the larger side so come hungry or perhaps split the meal. Also, Faygo cola is the brand they serve here. I hear it's a Detroit locally made beverage and I couldn't tell the difference between Faygo and Pepsi, it was really good. Please stop in here if you are in the area. The staff couldn't have been better. read more

I stopped at Cutter's Bar to decompress after a hard day of work. They are known for their burgers. I ordered a cheeseburger and a peach martini. Honestly, I didn't really enjoy either. My burger was overcooked, and the drink tasted very basic. I can see this being a great place for regulars. Even groups would have fun there. The music was popping. It was the highlight of the visit. It's worth trying again. Perhaps I'll go with a regular and order what they normally order. read more

Cat fish bites and tenders were delicious. The bartender was a sweet heart. The vibe I got was fun can't wait to go back

Good burger and fries. I ordered the burger medium well. It came well done but was still good. The fries were handcut and crispy outside but light inside. We came around 5:30 on a Thursday, there was already a decent crowd at the bar and the music was super loud and we had to yell to talk. Just be aware of that if you're looking for a chill spot to have a conversation or have kids. read more

Classic Detroit bar. Had a stuffed mushroom cheese burger and a couple beers while watching a game. Service was very friendly and attentive and the crowd was a good vibe as well. read more

The service was good, our waitress was friendly. I enjoyed everything. I just wish they played music constantly instead of having to pay for songs. People kept buying songs, so you didn't really notice until the music stopped. I have no complaints about any of the food. I ate every darn fry, even the little ones. Everything was cooked as we ordered, so I'll be back real soon. If you're downtown in the eastern market district, I recommend you give this place a try. Oh, and they have a full bar. read more

Food good drinks on point cool chill spot! Waitresses are attentive and cool as hell! I'll go back!

So, I had a yelp event down here last night and had an hour or so to kill between work and the event. I found that this place was the closest, and I thought I would give it a shot. It seems to be a hit or miss place, so I wasn't sure what to expect when I walked in. Finding the place was easy enough, but parking was on the street. Walking in, the place isn't huge, but had a bar area and a decent sized seating area in the back with a wall dividing it. Place was kind of dark and gloomy. I reviewed the menu and realized that they had a variety of different types of meals here. Some were expensive and fancy ($26 for shrimp and steak) down to meals like Grilled cheese and sliders. I wasn't super hungry, so I didn't want a huge entree. I ended up getting the grilled cheese to hold my stomach since i knew I was going to be drinking beer in an hour or so. My server was rather quiet, but took my order and brought my food out for me as well. Not the quickest or fastest place, but I had time to kill so I wasn't in a rush. It kind of worked to my advantage this time waiting for everything. I did like her, as she was efficient and got my order correct. I will say, the place could use some attention in regards to upgrading their bathrooms. They weren't in bad shape, but I felt like they needed a fix or to? I dunno. I know lots of people love this place, and I wouldn't discourage you from going here, but I wasn't overly impressed. read more

Cutter's was a good choice when I was craving a burger. Had some friends tell me about it and I had to go try their Stuffed Burger to see what it was about. The hype was validated, it was nice and juicy and hit the spot. Service was attentive and vibes were good. The only knock is that the fries were kind of meh but the burger absolutely made up for it. Will definitely be back to Cutter's to try some of the other good-looking things on the menu. read more

Chimika, the general manager is the best! She's so personable and l knows how to manage the crowd with finesse. I enjoyed her service and friendliness. This spot is always a vibe + good times. This is a Detroit staple. You must come to get a vibe for the city. read more

Best french fries we have had in along time. They are the thicker fresh cut style where you can also taste the potato. Tameka was our bartender/server and was great! Didn't have but noticed a nice selection of Faygo pop (not soda) in the coolers. read more

Best bar burger in the city hands down and the service was excellent too nothing better then a cold beer on a Tuesday o

So, understand if you are not a regular, you may not be served badly, but you won't be served warmly and will barely receive eye contact if at all. Servers don't follow up with you, so it's best to get your order in at one time. Servers do not smile, tell you their name, and I was told with indignation, "we don't have a drink menu". They do, however, generously imbibe behind the bar. You will have to eyeball the bar and what other guests may have ordered to get an idea of what beer they have. Anyhow, places like this serve a niche clientele, that is, either you, or it's not. People who are regulars obviously love it. My burger was fine for the price point, but it was overcooked. Expect a well done burger regardless of what you request. They are not hurting for business so you will fit in with the culture or just go somewhere else. No need to be a hater, there's always another place suitable to your liking. read more

Not my 1st time. The 8oz. is way too much meat. But had it anyway. Stuff Burger's with cheese. A must try. Greek Salad very good. The crowd is down to earth. Everyone welcomed. And the music...... Awesome... Juke Box style. TVs for sports EVERYWHERE. Come ready to have fun, hear great music and get loud. read more

Great double-stuffed burger and catfish bites. Nice inside, attentive staff. Will be back.

Called my order in over the phone told it would be 20 minutes. Get there tell them my name and I'm her e to pick up a order. Nobody says anything so after waiting 30 minutes I go and ask what's going on with the food the lady says nobody told her anything. So she goes to check when she comes back she doesn't say anything just walks by.10 minutes later my family and I are like forget it then here comes a guy with food which happens to be our order. He then comes back out with more food. We wait another 5 minutes before someone decides to bag it up. The staff is rude, inconsiderate and to busy talking hugging and carrying on with other patrons besides doing there job. read more

We had a very poor experience here last night. We were participating in a Christmas Lights shuttle tour that met on the next block, and decided to stop in here for a burger before our shuttle left. We entered the restaurant more than hour before we had to get to the shuttles to check in. We came in, and sat at a two top table in the back room. It took 10 minutes just for a member of the staff there to acknowledge us. Don't get me wrong, it's not that there was staff there in the restaurant, they just wouldn't look at us. The one girl cleaned 4 tables near us, and their menus, but not even a "Hello, we will be with you." Finally, our waitress came to our table. We were trying to get to our shuttle (in the next 40 minutes.) The burgers took more than 30 minutes for us to get, and therefore we had to eat them and our fries so fast. It wasn't enjoyable, or a fun way to enjoy our meal before we left to go to our event. On another note, I ordered my burger "medium" and it was definitely well done, and really dry. Pretty disappointing. If they would have taken the burger off the grill a bit earlier, it would have been cooked more to my liking, and I would have had more time to eat. read more

I'd move to Detroit so I could hang out here. This place puts burger joints in LA to shame. I went for lunch. FOOD- Amazingly juicy cheeseburger! I got the 8oz and it was more than I could eat. I probably could've gone down a size. The onion rings were perfectly cooked. SERVICE- The waitresses were really nice and welcoming. MUSIC- the music was 90s rap and HipHop. It was perfect read more

This place was highly recommended by a coworker. I really wanted to love this place. I went with my wife. I got a bacon cheese butter. The bun was dried out and fell apart. I also thought the burger was overly seasoned. Too salty for my taste. My wife ordered a hamburger with Swiss cheese, tomato, lettuce and no onion. The burger came out with mushrooms and onion. My wife scraped off the mushrooms and subsequently all the Swiss cheese. My wife refuses to send food back. So I asked for another slice of Swiss because she had to scape mushrooms off. 1st server told us that we shouldn't have ordered the Swiss burger if we didn't want mushrooms we should have ordered a cheese burger with cheese. There is no Swiss burger on the menu only a mushroom burger btw. Since the insisted on taking wife's food back to make it right it ruined our outing. Would have just preferred to have a slice of Swiss brought to us. Doubt I'll be back. I also thought this place was expensive for a bar burger. read more

AWFUL service took over an hour to receive our food. Food was good, but will never come back or recommend!

Located in a century plus old building. Popped in for a bite of lunch. Decided to share a loaded steak bite potato. When it finally arrived, about 35 minutes later- it was delicious and huge. Glad it was a nice summer day, as waitress inadvertently knocked over a full 16 glass of ice water onto my lap. She apologized over and over. No problem, things happen ! read more

After all those Beers time to eat. Couple half pound Burgers one stuffed with Bacon n Cheddar Cheese and one stuffed with Feta Cheese n Purple Onion, Onion Rings n Soup.

THESE. BURGERS. ARE. SO. GOOD! I have always liked Five Guys for a fast option and Miller's in Dearborn or Mason's in Livonia for a bar burger, but Cutter's might steal first place - maybe. It is comparable, at least! The burgers are filled with hearty toppings and are very flavorful without being too 'meaty' tasting, if that makes any sense. Not gamey. The lettuce was crunchy, onions were thick cut, lots of pickles, and all of the toppings were really fresh, which you can never count on with bar burgers. My boyfriend got a burger with steak on it (philly cheese burger, maybe? something like that...) and the steak bites could have been a dish in itself; they might even be the steak bite appetizer, but we didn't order that, so I'm not sure. Huge, savory chunks! I couldn't believe that it wasn't a $20 burger. The fries weren't bad, but they're definitely skippable. Get the onion rings instead. Cocktails were awesome as well and reasonably priced! read more

I'd like to recommend this place I really would. Chill vibe almost hole in the wall like quality. Down near the Eastern Market. Friendly service. The food quality just wasn't there. How would I describe the 100% beef cut on premise? Well I'll just say this: beef should not taste gamey. read more

Honestly, it's the best stuffed burger I have had. Our server was fantastic. Music is awesome. Drinks were great.

If you know -you know! Best steak bites in the city. Salad was also fresh. Just a laid back place to drink, listen to music, and eat good food at a reasonable price! read more

I can't believe I haven't reviewed Cutter's. I've been here a few times and have ordered a burger each time. The breakfast burger stuffed with cheddar cheese and topped with a fried egg over medium is my favorite. I've also had the burger stuffed with blue cheese and green olives which is also very good. A side of onion rings or fries is good to round out the meal. read more
