Rude staff 6/10/2011

The burgers are okay but i noticed how rude the staff can be esp towards the middle eastern community in Dearborn. It seems to me they dont want there business?? Im not middle eastern but growing up in Dearborn i was very offended how rude the wait staff was treating a table next to me. the way i seen it was ONLY because they were of Arabic decent. It was so obvious but i was surprised the people didn't make a complaint????? more

Love it or hate it... 2/14/2011

The burgers are A+++ hands down. With a big chunk of american cheese, with or without a giant slice of onion, you cannot beat these burgers. But I've seen folks get all hot about the price, outraged that they cost a couple bucks more than McDonald's. And boo-hoo, our Vegan friends could not eat kelp and soybeans... Cry me a river. If you want a good burger and a cold beer, bust your butt on over to Miller's. Leave your vegetarian friends in the parking lot. more

Winning Combination - Unique, Great & Keeps it Simple 1/15/2011

To make a long story short, if anyone complains about Miller's Bar, they just don't get it! Miller's is no B.S. - just great burgers, made from fresh ground round, served to you on waxed paper...you can make it a cheeseburger, get onion rings, or fries, and there are maybe 4 other things total on their menu. You can get Miller's High Life on draft - or beers in a bottle - or a mixed drink which they'll be generous with - they free pour like 'the uncle"" in every family that liked his parties! The bar is not long on ambiance - the first time I was in Miller's was in the late '60's as a kid - the last interior remodeling they did was 1976 - note the ""bicentennial-like"" sheilds on the wall mirrors next to the booths in the front room! The place is usually crowded at lunch & at dinner - if you like ground rounds & haven't tried Miller's - check it out - it's an old-school mid-20th century throwback of a place & has a certain charm to it...if you don't like it, then go to some pre-fab chain restaurant instead & make the line shorter for all the others that want a Miller's burger - thanks! more

Best Burger 12/20/2010

Best burger in se mich! the burger is seared on a flat top so it sizzels in it's own fat the whole time. for those of you who think grilled is the way I have one thing to say to you ""YOU CLEARLY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT"" American cheese, no other options even, fries have a nice day! rude servers? who cares I'm there to enjoy sweet sweet cow. No vegetarian option? I'm sure you're kinnd will die off soon anyway. No paper check? really thats a problem for you? more

Nice Family....not so great bar 1/8/2010

Miller's Bar is an institution in this town...but I don't know why. The burgers are nasty and the drinks and service aren't that great. We made the mistake of taking a vegetarian to this restaurant...there were no options...they wouldn't even make her a grilled cheese...it was rude. But I think it was just our old waitress. The Miller Family is super nice but improvements need to happen to keep this ""institution"" alive. Pros: Nicest Owners in the world Cons: The food more

AWEFUL! 1/6/2010

Simply put WORST BURGER I have ever had. I would give it zero stars but it will not let me. I would prefer eating at McDonalds or BK over having their burger. After reading GQ's review ranking them #8 in the country I found myself extremely disappointed after my first bite which just got worse as I continued. I do not mind the food being served on wax paper, or the rude server, I can deal with that. What I can not understand is the onion rings, it is as if they walked down the street to Kroger's frozen foods section and grabbed a bag of breaded onion rings that had freezer burn and served them. The beer (Corona) was even bad (possible expired). My taste buds will not forgive me for this experience. If you are looking for a great burger in the Detroit area Red Coat is far superior in every way. Cons: everything more

Bah! Humbug! 10/23/2009

Frozen burger patties with no seasoning. Rude waitress. No menu, no paper bill provided (At least, a menu with prices posted on the wall would have been helpful), no plates, no silverware, no frills. However, expensive (they even charged for water) ! Save your money, and go elsewhere. Pros: Parking convenient Cons: Food, service, price, etc. more

over rated 10/1/2009

All this talk about the best burgers. I went there and was let down. 1) tables are jam in there and theres no room. 2)the waiteress was rude (sorry that you had to do your job!) 3) the food was exspensive. I woun't be back. Pros: the baked beans are great Cons: the burgers are only good not great more

Dirty ole bar burgers! 5/26/2009

Why would you want to come here and eat burgers cooked by a dirty guy with long hair , tattoos, and no gloves?? i have no idea. it s no better than McDonalds and more expensive. They upcharge for everything...by the time you pay your bill, your greasy burger ends up costing you $7.00 ! Pros: local joint Cons: food is overrated more

Over rated 4/30/2009

After years of rave reviews Millers is over rated! The atmosphere is dated, the food is fair. twice my carry out order was wrong, (always in their favor). You can get get better burgers elsewhere in Dearborn at Howell's and Beirgarten. Pros: fair burgers Cons: old arrogant staff more

Not as good as it used to be 4/4/2009

I have been going to Millers for 20 years but the last 3 or 4 times the burgers were not good at all, they were dry the meat was overdone on the outside. It seems like they turned up the grill heat just to knock them out fast. The Millers I remember you got a nice tasty burger that was juicy and cooked just to order. I know that in these times places aren't staffed like they should be but this is no reason for the quality to suffer. If this continues, it will turn people away. Start using the same quality of meat that was being used before and maybe these reviews will improve. Pros: A good place to take the family Cons: Inconsistent food and service. more

Burgers 3/5/2009

The best burgers around, food is fresh, not frozen, and the place is awesome!! more

Anyone who would reate Cheli's better than Miller's... 2/13/2009

Has totally marginalized themselves. Their business model has been working for them for decades and they still use the honor system. Best burgers in the US. End of story. Pros: Burger coma Cons: They have gotten a tad pricy over the years. more

I'm just not a fan 11/3/2008

If you've never been there before and you've heard people talk about it for years, go in with low expectations. Pros: ""Good"" Burgers Cons: Service, Menu more

Burger Okay, Staff is RUDE!!! 6/3/2008

I have been stopping in here occasionally since 1987, the burgers are not bad, onion rings are good, fries are weak, liquor and beer selection is not very good, basics only, service is inconsistant, staff spends too much time treating people in a rude manner or bickering amongst themselves. Everything is always their way, RUDE. God forbid you ask for silverware, or bring an odd number of diners. Just about the time I enjoy my meal the staff ruins it. And if you don't like something, well they are quick to inform you it Dan Miller's place and his rules so like it or lump it. On weekends the younger bar staff like to argue and fight in front of you whicj can be entertaining by itself. The whole bunch need to retire and get someone to run the place that knows the meaning of customer service. more

Best burgers? Really? 5/5/2008

So I was in town from Arizona visiting a friend and we went to miller's last week, based on seeing it here. I must admit, it wasn't bad. don't expect a menu. they will just ask you what you want, you know the answer, Burger. $23 for two of us to have burger fries and a beer. so I am thinking ""not bad"" then 2 days later I find myself at ""3 Nick's"" Scoreboard. I find out that with a 2 drink minimum you can order off their ""lunch"" menu (Lunch is served till 11p.m. by the way) I order the bacon cheeseburger I chose pepper jack cheese (there are other options, mushroom swiss etc.) and it was ten times better than Miller's! much thicker (hand made and not frozen ground round) better taste and get this it cost $1.00 I know you can't believe it. but it really was the best burger I have had anywhere and it was $1.00. The waitresses and bartenders wear bikinis till 4 so leave the kids at home. they like McDonalds better anyway. the lunch menu also includes fries, onion rings and many other option all for a buck each. So two beers ($1.75 each) onion rings and the best burger ever for two of us for $11. less than half the price of Miller's (with one more beer to boot) plenty left over to tip the nice looking girls in bikini's. So skip Miller's and go to Scoreboard ( i hear there are 2 other ""3 Nick"" bars in town but I have not been there) You will be glad you did. more

A Burger worthy of a backyard BBQ not national aclaim 4/21/2008

Just a regular, average, burger...The burger is just meat (frozen, not fresh) on a bun - no seasoning. You cant even dress it up. For a place that only sells burgers, fries, and onion rings, I would expect fresh meat with fresh condiments- not a glorified McD's frozen burger. Would have given it three stars but the only reason for the trip was all the hype, and it didnt live up to it... No where near the best bar burger in Detriot. If you are in the area, you should go, just so you know what you're not missing... Pros: Rare means rare Cons: Too much Hype more
