This is a surprise place. My husband looked up best burgers in Flint and this place came up. The…read moresurprise, it is a tiny slice of a restaurant in a random gas station on your way in or out of town. This seems to be a franchise or chain from Texas making good burgers and shakes. While it first appears to be a little sketchy, the food is quality and delicious. We each had a burger. I have a bacon cheeseburger. It was so big, it did last until next day, and I always measure a burger in two ways, how does it taste first day and how does it taste next day. This burger was such high quality, it did not taste like a fast burger, it was restaurant style and quality. The fries as well. They seem to be Board Walk fry style and you can also get sweet potato. They portions were so big, we had to bring home four portions of fries since we all upgraded to a meal deal. You can get a shake with your meal instead of a soda, but they were more like concretes or blizzards, ready to eat with a spoon, so thick and delicious. I had the peanut butter cup with so many fat chunks of candy, it was exactly how I hoped it would taste. Yes, it was so good, I would drive back out here just to get a burger. I am not sure now far it is from me, maybe an hour? But I would drive an hour for this good of a burger. There was also a nice steady stream of customers, so you know others in the area must know how good this place is, a real hidden gem. If the company or franchiser is looking to expand in MI, we would love to see a location open up in Oakland County or the surrounding area. The people working here were very nice, helpful and friendly, but the woman manning the counter seemed very sick. She had a mask on and was coughing and sneezing. It would not be a problem, except she continuously took off her mask to talk to us and other customers, she took it off to cough and sneeze and wipe her nose on herself. It did not seem like proper food code and I am not sure if she washed her hands, and she did handle food, since she brought all bags and trays out to customers creating tons of cross contamination. I agree, some of us do need to work when we are not feeling well, but she could have and should have kept the mask on and frequently washed hands if she needed to touch or blow her nose. Other than that, it was perfect.

As someone who's lived in the Flint area for over 20 years and eats out often, I was excited to try…read morethe newly opened Mooyah Burgers, Fries & Shakes. It's located inside the gas station at Bristol and Lennon near Miller Road and the airport, an easy stop with plenty of parking plus a Coffee Beanery and convenience store all in one spot. Staff were genuinely friendly and helpful, even pointing out the "secret menu" posted near the register (check the photos). Service felt welcoming right from the start. The fries were fresh-cut with skins on, creamy inside with a light crisp outside. I personally would've liked them cooked just a touch longer, but flavor-wise they were solid. Portions are generous across the board. I ordered the double bacon burger and it was loaded with meat, definitely not a skimpy fast-casual burger. The potato bun tasted great but had a hard time containing everything. Bacon was nicely cooked, and the real standout was the Mooyah sauce, closer to a yum yum-style sauce than a traditional burger spread. The shakes were thick and creamy without being overly sweet, and the fresh-baked chocolate chip cookies were a great surprise. Only minor downside was waiting about 10 minutes for a takeout box since they were kept in the kitchen while staff managed orders up front. Overall, great value, big portions, and a strong first impression for a new Flint location. I'd absolutely come back, though next time I'd stick with a single burger since the portions are more than enough. PS. Don't forget to sign up for the rewards program for free stuff.

I asked when they were made and to my complete surprise she told me 5 days prior. Well, now I know why they looked so undesirable. I asked if it's possible to get a freshly made juice. The reply was no, we only juice every 5 days. At an inflated price of $13 per juice I find it hard to believe 5 days (for a fresh pressed juice) is the best they can do. Typically juice bars are made to order. Even when ordering plain celery juice. I did give 2 stars because I like their granola bowls, but unfortunately not enough to fully satisfy me. I make celery juice almost daily at home and would never dream of drinking one 5 days old!!!

If there's one thing this city has in spades, it's decent places to grab a coffee. The Palette Cafe…read moreis no exception. Tucked away inside a corner near the front of the FIA, the Palette Cafe has all the makings of an all-around quality coffee spot, featuring a small, but well-rounded brunch menu, solid coffee drinks, free WI-FI, a comfortable atmosphere, and even adult beverages to boot (they serve wine). Years ago, this was a standard-issue, Starbucks-licensed coffee kiosk with some seating, designed to keep patrons of the FIint Institute of Arts happy if they wanted a coffee or a cookie in between checking out art installations. That has changed. Eventually, it came into its own and became the Palette Cafe (the name is obviously a wink to its location within the FIA, wink wink), a full-service coffee shop with a host of food, coffee drinks and more with expanded hours, its own WI-FI connection, events held on-site, and more. Today, it holds its own in a city dripping with places to get a cup of coffee. They serve coffee from the Mighty Good Coffee Company out of Ann Arbor and true to its name, it is mighty good (long gone are the days of serving Starbucks). The Cafe Americano is my go-to drink, smooth and bold at the same time with no acidic aftertaste. Weak, it is not, but it isn't overtly strong and bitter, either. It's just right. Now, that's a good cup of coffee. As for the food, there are a couple of clear winners on their brunch/lunch menu. The caprese flatbread is my favorite on their new "sandwich board" menu. It isn't slapped together in a rush or made with less than fresh ingredients. It was better than I expected it to be. The flavor, texture and presentation were all there. I had no complaints. I'd say it was at least comparable, and in some cases, much better than the caprese flatbreads that I've had elsewhere. They have a quality Mediterranean Veggie sandwich, too, piled high with appropriate fresh vegetables on artisanal bread, an optimal choice for a vegetarian like myself. My husband had a Tuscan Chicken sandwich once and gave it the thumbs up. My husband and I split the hummus appetizer, which was a decent size for two people. I liked the texture and taste of the hummus, creamy without being oily. Oily hummus is a no no, so naturally, I was relieved that it wasn't a disappointment. It was actually quite good and made for a great shareable appetizer. I would order it again. The soup of the day is always made fresh in-house daily, so remember to check that out. The soups rotate frequently, which means what you had last weekend might not be back on the menu for awhile, but it's best to check back regularly for updates. They have a nice variety of fresh baked treats to satisfy a sweet tooth, but my favorite are the sugar cookies, so soft and moist. I'm sad to admit this, but they are far and away superior to any sugar cookies that I've personally ever baked at home. I know, I should be embarrassed about acknowledging that, but who cares? Oh, and I did mention they serve wine, right? Yes, they do! There's nothing wrong with that in my book. Their WI-FI connection is decent, but it largely depends on just exactly where you're seated. Some tables get a better connection than others, so if your connection seems weak, just switch to the gallery's WI-FI and it will probably be fine. I've had to do that a couple of times and it's usually no problem, although I can see where it could be pretty frustrating. They're often open late, usually in tandem with ongoing events at the FIA. They have a "palette punch card" which entitles the bearer to a free beverage after ten purchases and FIA members always get 10% off their bill (20% on certain FIA member appreciation days).

They were out of ribs, which is what my dad specifically went there for, and they were also out of draft beer. Dad chose to just have water - and the server brought him a Modelo beer..... he never asked for that The restaurant itself wasn't very clean, and the bathrooms were actually quite dirty. Our server left dirty glasses on the table when she brought our new drinks and forgot the boxes we had asked for, so we ended up just leaving our leftovers. We also asked for drinks to go, only to find out they were out of carryout cups. Just an all-around disappointing experience. It's really too bad because the owners are awesome, and I truly hope they can turn things around. I'd love to see this place get back to being the amazing BBQ restaurant it used to be!

Service feels slow and strangely disengaged, as though customers are interrupting the ambiance simply by ordering. What should feel warm and welcoming instead comes across as performative and inattentive. The food is especially disappointing considering the prices. The sandwiches are remarkably small and underfilled, leaving you wondering whether you accidentally ordered a half portion. The salads are even worse, which is essentially a pile of arugula. For a downtown business surrounded by residents and neighboring businesses, the lack of inclusion for the community and the repeated disregard for basic city noise expectations is difficult to ignore. Ultimately, Flint has several coffee shops that provide better food, better service, and a far more genuine sense of love for the community here.

Our server was the other, but she was pulled between several tables on our side and a large party in the other dining room. In spite of that, she still managed to serve us well when she was available. The kitchen runner who also functioned as host had his earbuds in, so when trying to let him know about missing items, he simply kept walking, unable to hear us. The food seemed a little off. We had been here before and it just wasn't the same. The kitchen brought the items out at various times, but between the actual plates, the tortillas and the guacamole, at least ten minutes went by. I am not sure we would have gotten it all, had we not asked about it. We had to ask for hot sauce separately, because that is no longer provided on the tables. It arrived when we were basically done eating. It was a disappointing visit.
