“ The BEST burgers I have had!!! The meat is seasoned to perfection and the fries are small and yummy. The fries also didn't go stale like other places. Will definitely return. ”
“ I’m not a huge hamburger fan but being new to the area I checked out Yelp and Hamburger Mikey’s had great reviews. Walking in, it felt cozy in a hip way! Instantly greeted and then I asked about the special. The guy took time to tell me about how to order and the special and all the toppers (free minus bacon chili and cheese) you make your own. The special is filling and so good! The smash burger is the BOMB! The fries... let me tell you! You won’t get them more fresh (hand cut) anywhere else. They’re amazing and then there are the sauces... I’m pretty sure this will become a frequently visited establishment! Thanks for the great atmosphere and delicious lunch! ”
“ They accommodated my taste buds quite adequately as they allowed me to build my own burger. All fresh ingredients and locally sourced beef patties. Highly recommended...Jamie took my order and he was phenomenal, Larz also backed me up on the grill and did his damn thang. The burger was ”
“ One of the best burger joints in West Michigan! They serve top-notch smash burgers out of the location of the old Icepick bar. This place never disappoints. You can't go wrong with a Fat Mikey, but if you're feeling adventurous, grab their featured burger of the month. Pair whatever you get with a mountainous order of their whole cut fries. Be warned, one order is easily enough for two people! ”

“ Amazing. Probably the best hamburger in West Michigan as they claim. I tried it while they visited at City Built Brewing Company in Grand Rapids, MI. - Fat Mikey (double cheeseburger) - 12: Everything is designed for the very best burger and it was well executed. The burger was greasy good and the whole thing just melted in your mouth, even the burger. The cheese was melted to perfection and oozed. The Mikey Sauce was really good. The toppings were very well balanced. I found it REALLY hard to complain. - Fresh Hand Cut Fries - 5: ONE POUND! The fries were thin and medium to deep with flavor. They were salted just a touch extra, but in this case, it was actually a compliment. They cool fast, so eat them first and fast. At a serving size of one pound, you should probably share. - Sauces: Mikey Sauce is very good. It has its own spice blend, but it is light enough not to be overwhelming. It is just right. Wild Mikey Sauce was my favorite. The chipotle was perfectly balanced with a sweetness that aggressively and boldly grabs your taste buds. I’m coming back for more for sure! I want to try the Cajun Kaja Mayo. - Service: Tim was taking orders and has a MASSIVE connection personality. He clicked with everyone in line and walked around to talk about your experience. He is the face of Hamburger Mikey and for VERY good reasons. He was knowledgeable, helpful, and REALLY positive. - Atmosphere: They were visiting at City Built Brewing Company, so I cannot say much about the restaurant. It was super cool to see them collaborate, though! - Conclusion: I have nothing to complain about except that they are not in Grand Rapids. I want to visit their actual location and think about it more, but I would say at this point, they are probably the very best burger in West Michigan. Visited January 1, 2025, which was Wednesday, at 12pm. ”
“ It was our first time there and we were so impressed. Everyone was super nice! The food was excellent. My husband just found his new favorite fries. We definitely will be making this a regular stop! ”
“ My first time having Hamburger Mickey’s was an excellent experience! It has been on my list of place to try for quite some time and it did not disappoint. The staff was extremely friendly. The restaurant itself was clean and well kept. There is plenty of seating available inside and outside. Food was fresh made and hot. I tried the burger of the month which was over the top good. Definitely something I would have never even thought of myself. I will absolutely be back in the future. ”
