I'm giving a 5 star because their current average of 2.5 is nowhere reflective of my experience. The complaints about Mike's seem to center around long wait for your food, which they have a sign that says they only fire your food once you order. Also I saw one person say the staff was subtle racists, but as an Asian I didnt get any negative vibe. The people seemed very nice. Onto the actual food. Chocolate espresso oreo shake - excellent. Just the right texture not crazy thick and impossible to drink, oreo chunks not getting stuck in the straw. Walla Walla tillamook buger - very good - onions carmelized nice and sweet, generous amount but not overloaded. Tots, hot and fresh, cooked just a slight hair lighter than I typically like but very good. Overall if you're looking for driveinn food and you're in the area, i recommend it. read more

Mike’s Drive-In - Diners Near Me - Tigard, Oregon

This place constantly screws up my order. It's just laziness and incompetence. On multiple occasions I order sweet potato fries and they put regular fries in the bag. I'm tired of giving them free money for them to screw up my order. They have also made the entirely wrong burger for me twice now. Get it together! Will not be returning. read more

I'm pretty tolerant of mediocre food and service, but my experience at Mikes Drive-In in Tigard this evening pushed me to write this long and not great review. I stopped in for the first time to try Mikes. While waiting to order, I noticed that they had a "Senior Burger" and meal. For about $8 ($4 less then the regular basket). I'm 66 so I thought, why not? And ordered it. I got a chocolate cone instead of a cookie. I also ordered it to go but changed my mind and ate it in the restaraunt. Well, that was a bad choice. I have never had a worse burger! It was even worse than the "basic" burgers at McDonalds or Burgerville which are not all that bad. The patty was literally 1/8" thick (see photo). Like it had been mashed with a 10lb weight. And it was tough and chewey. To be honest, I wasn't sure it was even beef. And the bun and sauce was just a mess. Ok, that said, perhaps it's because it's was the "Senior Burger". I get that they can't just charge me less for the same burger. And I would be ok with it if it was a little smaller than a regular burger, but it was just awful. The fries were OK. Very light seasoning and salt, but I guess some like them that way. But thats not all.. The chocolate cone was OK, but they filled it such that it was a LOT wider than the cone itself. I had to eat it in a BIG hurry to avoid dripping. The napkin holders were terrible also. Out of about 8 of them, only 1 had napkins coming out the top. All the rest required the customer to dig around with their fingers to get a napkin out. The holders are not spring loaded and maybe the napkins were too big? Not sure. But I gave up and opened the lid of mine so I could wipe ketchup off of the same fingers.... Maybe the regular burger is better, but Mikes needs to asses the operation on several fronts to tempt me back. read more

My wife ordered the kids cheeseburger meal today for lunch. The burger was tiny and thin and quite overcooked. The patty has curled up. Reminds me of the old Wendy's commercial,"Where's the beef?". I had the fish and chips which was OK for a frozen cod dunked in a fryer but expensive for over $17 for the meal. On the plus side, the marionberry shake was really good! read more

Sky was very professional and sweet. my daughters order was mixed up and she took care of it and gave her a compliment soft serve.

Mike's in Tigard. Wow for a place that gets such critical reviews it sure is packed all the time every time you go. Its still new and to me the food is way better than at other locations. No badd habits and no looking for ways to cut corners. Yet stay tuned. They have a beautiful outside wall up window where you order and take your food back to your car or one of the outdoor tables. This has not caught on here yet. Maybe it's the weather but even in the end of summer and fall Tigard people just don't seem to eat outside. So this makes the time and yes I mean tiny indoor seating area hot real estate. Add in that Tigard people don't seem to bus their tables and leave the table a mess. It makes for some standing around as the staff is busy making and serving food creating more bussing needed. Plus almost every time Tigard people seem to think it's some sort of fine dinning. You know the crowd. I ordered pickles on the side and extra tomato and pepper jack cheese... Ahyy gvolt. Its fast food. Oh and the already had to start charging for sides of sauces because of free greed. Give me it it's free. The food is better than most Mike's and the service is supposed to be mainly outside It's always been pretty quick. Its the Ambience created by the other less than stellar customers you have to watch out for. read more

I think it's been long enough that I can write an honest review. I grew up in Milwaukie so Mikes is life. I was so thrilled to hear one was coming to Tigard. The food is actually very good. I really enjoy the onion rings. The shakes are thick and flavorful. For some good fried and frozen foods this is definitely the place. However, the service is total amateur hour. My waits have varied greatly from the quotes on the online order. Items have been forgotten. Every experience has just been some level of disappointing. I'll head in back to the mikes on the east side. This is just not working for me. read more

Sucks just like the milwaukie location, i tried cause its somewhat new but the service and food still are lacking, if u wanna wait 45 mins for a simple burger and fries then u will love this place read more

Service is shotty and slow. Mistakes even if they are super slow. It's 11 am and they don't have things organized. They have been open since 10am. I ordered and the receipt says 11:05. When I received my order it was 11:32, and no shake. When I arrived the staff was yelling in the back not about food, about some BS in their lives. Why are there two orders still waiting? I came close to asking for a refund but people kept coming in to order. I finally got everything and the first thing I grabbed was the fried mushrooms. I love those all the way home with my takeout. All gone before arriving. Next is pastrami burger. Very good. Little cool just because I drove all the way home and put away the groceries I had purchased before stopping at Mikes. Then the coleslaw. Nice. The shakes are very good. I currently get chocolate banana. Secret is to mix in a bit of bourbon. Just wonderful. Location: right on 99 with parking on the east side. Facility: drive in style with small sit down area inside. Service: slow and not to good throughout the staff, front and back. Second time here, second time order errors. Food: Yes, a great menu and the items I had so far are delicious. Can't wait to try other items. read more

I always liked Mike's Drive-in. I used to go to the one in Milwaukee and always got great burgers and awesome service. Same at this restaurant. Great food and very friendly customer service. I took one of my son's with me and he absolutely loved the place! read more

When I heard that Mike's Drive-In offered a SW Tigard location I knew that I needed to go. I went with my son who always enjoys a classic burger. The entire vibe is old school hamburger joint with a gallery of photos from the original Mike's in SE Portland. The man behind the counter was easy going, helpful and speedy. We ordered the Mike's Special and the Mushroom and Swiss burger baskets. Each come with two sides - lots of offering here! We also went for a classic cherry coke. Service was quick and we found a table easily. We agreed that this classic burger basket hit all the high points - juicy meat patty, melty cheese and all the fixins made the burger hard to eat...but a messy burger with juice dripping down your hands means that is it legit!! We both committed to coming back to try a milkshake! read more

The food is delicious. I had fish & chips and they didn't leave grease all over my hands. Cooked to perfection. Everyone there is so friendly and courteous. It was also very clean inside. I definitely recommend this place. read more

I wanted it to be good but it was subpar. Mushroom and Swiss Burger was flavorless (as if it had been kept warm in water), fries weren't particularly noteworthy. Not much to say when the food's bland. I didn't try one myself, but the ice cream / shakes seemed very popular. Maybe that's what brings folks back? read more

It's much better this time than the last go around. Unfortunately, the fries were pretty cold/not fresh again. The standard cheeseburger was good, and I only had a soda, so there's not much to add to a rating. Fries are a staple. Really, they should be focusing on making those right. Everyone deserves some slack when busy, but when you wait 20-30 minutes and still get cold fries, that's a let down everytime. I'd at least hope to get hot fries before getting the order. read more

Mike’s Drive-In - Chicken Sandwich w/fried and coleslaw - Diners Near Me - Tigard, Oregon

The hamburger was pure pink inside and toppings were almost non-existent. Company offered a gc and never sent it.

They're wait times can be a little long but I like their products so I don't mind. Can't beat .99 cent ice cream cones!!! Sometimes the seasonal ice cream flavors are very good as well. Their happy hour has good prices and certain time of the year they have family nights on Tuesdays, where you can get really good deals. Try a 2 flavor swirl cone, you'll like it!! read more

Better than 2 but not a 4. One burger was burnt but second was good. Fries were crisp. Shakes were very good. Service needs some improvement. Shouldn't need to wait 30 minutes or more. Will try again and see if rating stays the same. read more

We came last night for the grand opening. Despite being totally slammed (there was an hour before we ordered and then another hour wait for our food), the staff was all very friendly and eager to help. The chicken strips were great, fries nice and salty, and my kiddos loved their free soft serve as a part of their grand opening. We will definitely be back when the lines die down! It's nice and new/clean, but still has an old school vibe. Love it! read more

Delicious food service was pretty good in the atmosphere was fun! we had burgers and fries and milkshakes, and they were all delicious... definitely going back soon. read more

Where do I start? I had quit the experience here. First I wasn't even greeted by workers. Second there was a drugged out homeless man out front by the entrance. Once I ordered that's when it all began togo downhill. I really wanted an expresso milkshake but inside I got cheated out of my medium and got a small inside my medium cup. And my burger was burnt. And if you want Lemonade just order a sprite... Honestly if you want to try this place stick to the onions rings and French fries. And the place was filthy and needed a good clean. El jefe was next door and poppin maybe try that place read more

Genuinely was impressed by this place. Fried pickles weee phenomenal, shakes super thick and tasty, fries were nothing too exciting. Incredibly clean environment, SUPER affordable. Menu actually surprisingly large and exciting. All in all great ambiance and service and super fun friends, family, or date spot. Recommend and sad to see they don't have more stars! read more

Tried to order online then pick up, but the website wasn't working. Husband ordered in person and was told he'd have to wait 30 to 45 minutes to get the food. Yikes!?! He waited and got the food in about 30 minutes. The person at the counter said the reason it took so long was because they were slammed with DoorDash and Uber Eats orders. Regardless, he ordered deluxe cheeseburgers with fries on one, and tots on the other. When he got home, it turned out that they misunderstood cheeseburgers for bacon burgers. (?) It was okay, but it wasn't what he told her. She charged him for bacon burgers. I had tots which were fine...you can't mess them up too badly. The fries however were not to his liking, and were icy cold. Sadness. We had hoped to find a good burger place in Mike's, something to replace the Stanich burgers we used to love. It was not to be. read more

Terrible service, food is usually good but sometimes it's cold and burned. And the tables are kind of dirty, and the workers all were talking behind the counter when I was there. I was the only one there and my burger took upwards of 20 minutes. There was one worker that was doing all the work for the other workers though. Working the desk, sweeping the floors and cleaning the bathroom, awhile the other workers were talking. read more

Went and got the deluxe cheeseburger. It was $7 and some change but it was great! Made fresh to order.

It sure was a BIG DEAL when Mike's announced it was coming to Tigard. After a very rocky start -staff training and supply issues- it seems things have quieted down and the place is humming along as it should. The lines are still there but not as bad. And I sure hope the reviews get better!!! We didn't have any issues with the wait time or customer service. Just one little hiccup: we ordered and paid by phone to do curbside pickup. When we arrived, we phoned to tell them we were in the pickup spot. The young man who answered said we had to come in and pay and then they'd bring our order out. This made absolutely no sense since we had already paid and the whole idea of "curbside pickup" was to avoid having to go inside. Fortunately, he put us on a quick hold to get some clarification. When he came back on, he confirmed that we didn't have to come inside and that our food was on its way out to our car. Whew, tantrum avoided!!! We ordered the pastrami sandwiches as they were specials at the time and in limited supply. I chose the Pastrami Melt ($9.50): thin sliced pastrami, Swiss cheese, 2 slices of tomato and mayo on grilled sourdough. Overall good flavor, a little too smoky for my taste but nice and lean with an excellent meat-to-bread ratio. I wish it had come with lettuce, pickles, and onions (I found out later you can request these items) and a little less mayo. My husband got the Pastrami Reuben ($9.50): thin sliced pastrami, Swiss cheese, topped with sauerkraut and special sauce on grilled rye bread. We both ordered the onion rings but they weren't exactly the ideal choice for getting home hot (or even warm) and sadly, they were cold by the time we got them home. Not Mike's fault. They are batter-fried and I prefer the breaded version anyway. We also chose to make our orders "baskets." For an additional $4.95 it included a 20 oz drink and a 2 ounce container of cole slaw, potato salad, or a cookie. The cole slaw was good if you like yours on the sweet side with lots of mayo. I'd try the potato salad next time. The menu includes burgers (of course), fish & chicken sandwiches, fries, tater tots, batter-fried mushrooms, clam strips, etc., and a very nice kids menu. Dessert is covered too. You can get a soft-serve for 99 cents all day long! They have various flavors of old-fashioned ice cream and waffle cones, sundaes and parfaits available. I'd definitely give Mike's another try. read more

Keyleen was amazing. Great service. Definitely coming back. Food was good and fresh. The place is nice and clean.

I've eaten at a different location of theirs before and really liked it. Everything about the other one was what this one lacked. The staff cared more about dishing gossip and playing slap and tickle than catering to their customers. A simple burger and fries order shouldn't take 20-25 minutes to complete for a fast food chain. Multiple times I saw people check orders (that seemed to be complete) but not call out the order number. Not till some other worker came over to those did they start to get called out. No changes made to them or things added. I guess it simply was not the other job to call out orders. I won't be coming back to this location. $15 for a 25 minute wait and simple burger, nah. I'll go to McDonald's or burger king. read more

A Portland metro area classic! Food is always good and cooked to your desire. My favorite is a plain cheeseburger (I usually add ketchup and mustard) with onion rings. The soft serve is so good too! Service is amazing and attentive. Store is always clean and has a number of different kinds of seats. Accessible as well! read more

Love Mike's burgers and milkshakes. They make real burgers with all of the additions, such as tomato, lettuce, onions, etc. And of course you can ask to not have these things on your burger if you choose. Their french fries are always hot and crisp and their milkshakes are absolutely amazing.every time I've been in the service has been outstanding. Always with a smile and very polite. The ambience is cute and classic. Old style burger joint. Support small and local businesses. read more

Burger was very dry. Tasted like they use a frozen patty. It was pretty bland, needed some salt. Bun tasted great, fries were ok. Disappointed that the cookie wasn't home made. Always surprised when business don't want to go the extra mile to make their product better. Cutting corners for an extra buck. Would love to see fresh never frozen meat for a juicer burger, house baked cookies. I also tried the potato salad. That too for sure comes from a pre made tub. Why not make your own? The difference between a two star burger establishment and a 5. Disappointed overall. read more

Mike’s Drive-In - Diners Near Me - Tigard, Oregon

After the Sellwood location closed, I wasn't sure how well Mike's was doing, but I am glad to see that they opened a location on the west side. They are famous for their soft serve cones, sold very cheaply (you can get one for .99 cents and they always run sales/coupons) but they also serve up classic American style drive-in food. It is served up hot, fresh and carefully prepared. This location is super busy because it just opened a bit ago, so the hype hasn't died down yet. As others have mentioned, I am a bit surprised by the poor reviews. There is definitely a wait because of how busy it is, but really this isn't a place to go for a fast meal. There are several fast food places nearby that will be much quicker- this is more of a place to go for a treat or special meal. Anyway- the food was good. I got two grilled cheese sandwiches, large order of fries, ranch to dip and a chocolate shake. Grilled cheese's were grilled just right, and also made with American cheese (don't get me wrong, I love cheddar, but nothing melts like American.) Chocolate shake was perfect, and the ranch was fresh and seemed like it was made in house. My only complaint is that the "large" fry was kind of small. The prices may seem a bit steep too, especially if you are feeding a whole family, but I was able to get away with not paying too much. I'll definitely come back to try out some of their options, especially the vegetarian burger (because I heard you can make it as a patty melt.) Their desserts are also cheap and they have lots of choices. I might just want to come back once the hype dies down some more. read more

So the burger wasn't all that bad it just had to much mayo on it and no burger sauce or thousand island that it normally has on it and the 25 minute wait sucked the tots were cold and they didn't give me any silverware ketchup or anything but the worse part was watching the rats run in and out of the bushes cleaning the food off the ground after one customer leaves and the next one sits down I tried getting pictures but they are fast and there was a lot of people coming and going so it made it hard and I didn't want to sit around all day trying to take one but trust me they are there read more

Best burgers in town! Good variety of fresh made to order burgers, and they use Tillamook cheese! Their coleslaw is very good. When you get your burger in a basket you get to choose coleslaw or a cookie. Milkshakes and ice cream are fantastic as well with 30 different flavors to choose from. read more

Food quality has improved to almost the standards of the classic locations. Our burger basket combos were very tasty and prepared well. 99 cent cones are perfect desserts. Fried pickles for the win! The problem I witnessed and read on reviews is the front counter person has a terrible attitude. Very pushy, short, and impatient especially to older people (seniors are to be treated with respect) and people who are not sure about what they want and have questions. The menu is a bit confusing for newbies. The dreaded "I'm doing you a favor" vibe. Rather stick to classic locations then witness the poor customer service shown by this person at Tigard location who has no clue about friendly customer service. It wasn't even that busy during our visit. Mike's charges a premium price for their food, being nice to customers should be a no brainer. read more

Mike's burgers is an Oregon classic similar to another brand that won't mention out of courtesy fresh meat. Not frozen delicious 100% local product they do as much as they can farm to store as they can when everything is available that way especially around the summer. You notice the vegetables are even fresher than normal fresh ,also I've never had a wrong order made the burgers and everything I've ordered from them. I've been class act and my son and them love the ice cream unfortunately I can't partake cuz of medical reasons,but I hear the ice creams are really good and I recommend them all the way. read more

Waited 40 minutes for our order. We did not get it by then but had to go to the window and ask about our order. It was never even made. Took them an extra 15 minutes to actually make it. My fathers milkshake was made and was sitting there the whole time. Not a big deal there. The halibut was like eating leather. It had zero mousture. The fries were also dry. I had to douse everything in souce just to eat what little of it i did. It was VERY expensive for what it was. 40 bucks for 3 people and we couldnt stomach it all. You have to pay extra for every sauce you want on top of the scant little cups they give you. Weve been there twice and wont be returning. Burgers are so meh you can buy better ones frozen from costco and just use salt and youll have a better one. Not impressed at all. read more

All of these 1/2 star reviews. You wanna be judgemental, the worst you can give is a 3. Be honest with yourself. This the best damn chicken strips I damn ate in years. Imagine moving from the West Coast to middle America like I did, dry desolate and flavorless. You move back, and this Drive In classic little spot where you could find yourself after a highschool game or baked on a Friday has a 2.5 on yelp? What in the hell? Nah cause fr, yall must be eating God's chicken strips you think this place isn't worth dealing with some attitude anyways. Those are probably the sons and daughters or nieces that own that place, and even if not, the food is worth having a not kiss-my-ass unauthentic customer service experience. They're making great food, where you can sit outside and enjoy the air and grass to touch, and it's hot and ready. Like girl bffr. EDIT: ALSO IF EVEN THE HI-C MAKES MY MOUTH FEEL HYDRATED COMPARED TO HOW ASHY IT NORNALLY TASTES EVERYWHERE ELSE? GIRRRLLL THIS PLACE GOOD read more
