I do not recommend this place. It took 30 minutes for us to get our drinks and 90 minutes to get food. Waitress claimed it was so busy but we watched half the place clear out before we got our drinks. My sandwich was lukewarm. The owner would not come out to address the issues. Again, I do not recommend. read more

Always great service and food. Feels very welcoming, Very inviting and cozy atmosphere.

Food was fantastic and service was even better!! Have gone a few times before work!! Highly recommend

I got the perch dinner and it did not disappoint! Hand cut tasty fries and great tartar sauce. My fiance got the chicken sandwich and she loved it. Friendly staff and great food! read more

The food was excellent, the service was very good considering the place was packed and there was only one waitress. The rest of the employees jumped in and helped to cover all the tables. This is definitely a great place to go for great food! read more

The food was really good. The atmosphere was awesome. I had the western burger it was giant and delicious. I would go back there again.

The owner is amazing and makes you feel like you've been friends forever. Great location and service. Food is always fresh and good. Clean and sanitary. read more

Nice bar food with good prices. Great wait staff. Friendly laid back atmosphere. Parking lot in need of repairs so caution please.

My 4yr old niece was there and needed to use the restroom and was told she could not by the manager Joe. He was very rude! Who treats a 4year old this way? I'm never coming back and told all my family and friends about this incident. What is this world coming to? I thought this restaurant was upscale until now. read more

We were craving perch dinners. This is an older restaurant. The owner and wait staff seemed very nice. A few of the perch pieces tasted a little too fishy but overall the meal was good. The coleslaw was good for a small up-charge. Plenty of food and good prices. read more

Definitely a local favorite. The Portabella mushrooms are AMAZINGGG!! I love their wedge salad, very refreshing. You can't go wrong with any of their wide variety of burgers. They have one of the best tap beer selections for the area and their shrimp tacos on "Taco Tuesday",are something to write back home to mom about. Very reasonably priced. Kid friendly . read more

Love this place, great burgers and French fries are homemade and awesome. Todd is an excellent server!

Plain exterior, nice little bar/restaurant inside. My group enjoyed the burgers, French dip and wedge salad. The Italian steak sandwich not so much. Reasonable prices and a good beer selection. read more

Any of the burgers are absolutely awesome. You can get them done any way that you want, and they turn out great every time. read more

Stopped in yesterday and had burgers and fries with my wife. Was the best burgers and fries that we've found in a long time. Travel around the state. Gabby's is at the top on my list! Can't wait to see you again! read more

Never really ate inside but I have gotten take out 5-6 times with the family. All the food was pretty good. The waitressing staff was always pretty helpful when picking up my food. read more

Awesome! This was our first time coming to Frankenmuth/Saginaw area. We were looking for a good burger place and Gabby's had great reviews, even though they only had a small number. They were rated 2 on the top 10 for trip advisor too, so we thought to give it a shot. The place is pretty simple and an old bar atmosphere but the burgers were amazing! Service was good and the price was great. If you don't mind the low key, local bar vibe you'll be pleasantly surprised. Hands down one of the best burgers, you won't be disappointed! read more

Had the best Perch dinner in a very long time. Todd the waiter was a joy to talk to. Thanks will definitely be back.

I love the food, homemade and plenty of soup in the servings! Todd is a wonderful server, knows us by name!

If there was an ability to give ZERO stars, I would. My boyfriend and I decided to stop in here for a quick drink and something to eat before we went to catch a few bands play down the road. There are no other bar/food options for miles so it would have been nice to actually be able to eat/drink here, unfortunately that wasn't the case. To start, we walked in and were not greeted by anyone, so figured it was just a "seat yourself" type of place. We thought about grabbing a seat at the bar, but a couple obnoxious guys were spread out across the entire bar top. Beers, wallets, keys, packs of cigarettes- two guys taking up the whole bar. They were obviously regulars because the bartender was laughing and joking with them as we awkwardly stood in front of the bar looking around like idiots. We still remained unacknowledged. Servers walked pass us, the bartender said nothing, so we decided to just grab a table. I had to use the restroom, so I told my boyfriend that when the server comes around to grab a couple menus and go ahead and order our drinks. To my surprise, when I got back from the restroom he was still just sitting at a table looking around. We only decided to sit a few minutes longer because it was apparent that nobody was going to serve us. We were correct. From the time we walked in the door to the time we walked out was probably a total of 10 minutes and we were not acknowledged by a single employee, though we passed many. On our way out I thought maybe the staff was just busy with other tables? I got my answer as we left, 3 servers/bartenders were "busy" putting stickers on beer cans with their backsides turned to the entire bar and another one was in the parking lot smoking with what looked to be the entire kitchen staff. I love to support local small businesses, and really wanted to support this one. Sadly I cannot. read more

With my inlaws, they wanted to take us to where you can get one of the best burgers around. I was down, I mean, who doesn't love a good burger? We started with some pretzel sticks, which came out hot and fast. The waiter/bartender was slammed. He apologized profusely and he did a very good job of trying to keep up with everyone there. I decided on the regular cheeseburger with the fries. I felt like the cheeseburger was just that, a cheeseburger, but the fries, completely worth it. They were fresh cut and tasted like my momma made them. This Irish girls loves her potatoes so I could have eaten just the fries and have been good with it! read more

Solid place to eat and it's very reasonably priced. Whole page on the menu is dedicated to burgers. All fresh, never frozen meat, plenty of toppings on the side made for a GREAT burger. I ordered the "Garbage burger" medium and it was cooked perfectly. They also hand cut their fries... Every day! Local owner not the standard chain restaurant. Well worth the extra drive to support a local business !! read more

Fish had bones, fries were over cooked , staff was great we're not going back , it doesn't even come close to Bay wood lounge, fish nor prices read more

I guess I should have had a burger, those are hard to screw up. I admit, the shrimp in my basket were HUGE and tasty, but whoever was cooking consistently did not watch the fryer. The breading was pretty burned. But on my Son's chicken, the very thick unspiced breading was really burned, a very dark brown. His fries were very dark, but that was nothing compared to mine. They were literally almost black, and they were stuck together in a mass at the bottom of my basket. My husband couldn't even eat them...he pretty much eats anything. Gary's fish he said was ok, that actually was not dark. I think it's maybe it's still a novelty, that's why people go. And maybe the burgers are good, I don't know. The drinking atmosphere is good..... that's the only reason I can think of that it's lasted. But as far as the food, from what I've seen it has zero staying power. And it's seriously expensive for what you get. It was $27 for 1 fish, 1 kid's meal and a shrimp basket. With tip $30. We could have gone to Rustic and had amazing steak dinners for that...... read more

Burgers are awesome and fries are over the top! Homemade fries are fresh, crisp and hot-worth every every calorie. We are spoiled to have them so close to where we live. Had heard about Hop Cat's 'crack fries' but they PALE in comparison. read more

Great food. I have had lunch here over 20 times and never had anything but great service and great food. Dinner menu also. Great daily specials. Drinks are reasonably priced. read more

Food is great.....nice place to watch a game and enjoy a brew without being over crowded.

Gabby's is one of our favorite places to go out to dinner. The staff is always great and the food is amazing! Great selection of beer on tap, lots of burgers, and their kids chicken tender meal is always a hit with my 7 year old! Can't go wrong at Gabby's read more

I went there on a Saturday afternoon with some friends. I ordered the jumbo wings. The drummies were not cooked all the way! The red haired shaved head waitress must've been having the worst day of her life because we waited 5 minutes before she came to our table to even take our drink order and was clearly not happy to be there. Eventually when she dropped off our food she never came back to ask if we needed anything else. We waved the other younger waitress over to order another round of drinks and ask for napkins. I know I should have told her the wings were not cooked fully but I was afraid that shaved red head would beat me up and spit in my drink (if we ever got another one from her, which we did not). I am giving 2 stars instead of just one because of the sweet younger waitress whom actually smiled. We left and went to a different bar which had far better food and waitresses that seemed like they actually enjoyed their job and actually smiled and were very attentive. Should have gone to the other place to begin with. I do not think I will go back to Gabby's. It's amazing how one waitress with a foul mood can really ruin what should have been a nice day out with friends. read more

Great burgers and good service! The fries are awesome! Will definitely visit again.

This place is awesome. Lots of great sandwiches, burgers best fries and beer selection in Mid Michigan. Great service, air conditioning, games on every t.v. ultimate comfort zone. Keep on keepin' it on Gabby's. read more

Had perch dinner last night, 8 pieces of pan fried perch, homemade french fries and slaw. $12.99. Great perch a bit too greasy. Polite lightning fast service. Fountain pop not set right (not enough carbonation.) Because of the service and the menu of very tasty looking hamburgers we will be going back. No perch, just burgers. read more

This is a great little spot. The burgers and sandwiches are great. The only spot I've been to in Saginaw that consistently cooks the burger to the right temp. When I order it medium it comes out medium, every time. Good selection of good brews, fries are killer. The other reviews that complain about service must be old, because their current wait staff is on point. read more

Great burgers and good variety of different foods. My favorite is there wedge salad it is D Lish! They also have excellent chicken tenders that are hand dipped and served with Home made fries. One of my favorite nights is taco night... the fish tacos are amazing!!! read more

Gteat food and great service. They go out of their way to make sure you are happy. I am a bacon lover and their BLT has tons of bacon. My husband had the perch dinner and he said it was excellent. Their french fries are homemade and cooked perfectly. read more

I went to Gabby's recently after reading about it on MLive. I had a burger, my wife had catfish, and our friends had burgers. The burger was fresh, cooked properly, and had a good selection of toppings that didn't overwhelm the very beefy, flavorful patty. Mine was spicy (I don't recall the name, but it had jalapenos and cheese). I didn't have any of the service problems mentioned elsewhere, although the fries were a bit overcooked, giving them a bitter, slightly burnt taste. Everything else was great, and the prices seemed fine for the quality and quantity of food. Would definitely recommend and will surely visit again, even though it is a bit of a drive for me. read more

Burgers and deep fried mushrooms are fantastic! Very friendly service as well. Prices are very reasonable too.

It's really sad. When this place opened, it was awesome. It was our "go to" place. In October we went in and the service was terrible. If they'd been busy, I would have completely understood. So we decided Friday (Jan. 16) we'd give them another chance. The owner served us two flat diet cokes and told us Tina would be right with us. He went somewhere and hauled in a new CO2 tank, hooked it up and hauled the old one away. Still haven't seen Tina, and he never returned to replace our diet cokes, which he knew were flat. Finally, Tina arrives and we place our order. My daughter's burger was ordered medium rare. It arrived medium well, and tasted like it was a frozen processed type of burger you would get from a fast food joint. She said it tasted funny and the consistency wasn't quite right, but ate it anyway. Two hours later, she threw it up. People not working, walking in and out of the kitchen with their coats on, grubby ketchup bottles with dried ketchup all over the top. My philly was a sad handful of what looked like microwaved roast beef, a couple of mushrooms and a sprinkle of cheese on a bun that definitely way too big for what was inside. The side salad was so bitter, that we didn't even finish them and they didn't ask if something was wrong with them when we set them to the side 3/4's full. I think that's enough to send anyone, anywhere else. What a shame! read more

I decided to take my dad here one Sunday afternoon. We were the only one there and we both ordered the perch dinner. I got the 1/2 order and my Dad got the full order. I got plenty of fish and I got steamed broccoli because I can't have fries. The fish was great, the broccoli was huge! Great meal for the price! read more
