I was super excited to try Dexter’s after reading the reviews…and let me tell you these readies are 100% accurate. We were helped quickly and everyone was wearing a smile. The atmosphere was fun and happy. I got Tara’s Turkey Burger. Turkey burgers are easy to get wrong. They got it so right. It was light and juicy. And the flavor was phenomenal. It was served to us at our table in take out boxes, which for an introvert like me is extremely convenient. 10/10 will definitely be going again!

I've had Dexter's on my list of places to try for some time. My wife and I don't necessarily seek out burger joints, but the consistent praise we've heard and read for Dexter's led to a visit.
First, the location and atmosphere are both unassuming, homey and comfortable. As soon as you walk through the door, you're pleasantly greeted and informed of the ordering process (order at counter, food brought to table). A very nice touch.
We each ordered a combo. I got Shauny's Mushroom and Swiss, and she got Steve's Spicy Burger. Just a few minutes later, giant burgers and plentiful fries were brought to our table in convenient carryout containers. The fries were nicely seasoned and piping hot. The burgers were perfectly cooked, had a nice sear, and there was no skimping on the toppings. I included a classic "bite" pic of one of the burgers to show how substantial their burgers are. Neither of us came close to finishing the entire combo, and it's interesting to consider that the price of a Dexter's combo competes with the price of a fast food combo. The main differences are that Dexter's is made to order from real food ingredients, there's a nice variety to choose from, and the quantity of food is probably 2 to 3 times that of the standard fast food combo. If you haven't been there, give it a shot. It would be hard to find more value in a burger combo anywhere. Next up, we're going to have to try one of the weekly specials!

This place rules. The amount of food you get for the money is incredible. I walked out uncomfortably full, because it was so good I couldn't help it, for like $12 getting the double dex combo.
Atmosphere was laid back, go order at the front, no frills, the guy that took the order came to check if everything was all good, dude from the back hollered that he appreciated you from the back as you left, exactly what you'd want out of a burger joint.
Honestly hard to put anywhere else above Dexter's for a burger in metro Detroit, good on ya fellas.

Somebody better tell 5 Guys that Dexter is coming for them!
11/10 Burgers are my favorite food and these guys absolutely nailed it! One of the best burgers I've had atop top notch Customer service and fair pricing. Burger was perfectly cooked and stacked so it was easy to eat- even the massive double burger, Bun didn't get soggy, bacon on top was thick and cooked just right, fries were hot and crispy.
It's the least to say that I will be back here again and again- if I ever leave. Great efn job guys!

Baby Jay's Double Bacon Burger
I chose this restaurant based on the number of stars and its location right off the highway, and my family and I are so happy we ate here. We absolutely love the people and the food.
The stand-alone building is in an old, kind-of-rundown gas station (non-operational). The inside totally makes up for the outside though. Note: Love the business sign.
First, it’s the warmth of the people inside. Everyone was super-friendly, and we could feel the sincerity. They were helpful in our ordering at the counter and in the service to the table.
Second, the food is very delicious. All of their items are named after people. We had Baby Jay’s double bacon burger, Steve’s spicy double burger, fried cod and wings (8 or so different flavors to choose from). Patties are big so be prepared to eat. It had good flavor and was non-greasy. The fried codfish (2 pieces) was tender and the batter light. It was also not greasy. I wish I had two other pieces of fish (so tempted to order more). The fries in our combo were crispy, and yes, non-greasy. Wings were nicely fried. The three flavors we had were garlic Parmesan, spicy jerk and lime pepper. The latter two were our favorites. The total for essentially 4 items, fries and drinks was $47 (tax included).
Everything was clean including the bathrooms.
All-in-all, a gem because of the heart of the people and the quality of the food.

Excellent food. Best burger around. My son said, "How can you get that much food for that price?! Fast food is more. "

Baby Jay's Double Bacon Burger
I love trying hidden gems like this. Right off the freeway. Easy to get to. I don’t know if I would go out of my way to go here though but worth checking out. My burger was okay. I was kind of surprised considering the hype this place gets. Price was good. I’ll be back to try the wings and maybe give the burger another shot.

2nd time there, first was a carry out and got the double Paddy cheeseburger, 2nd time dine in with my wife . This time I only did the single Paddy cheeseburger, because the double is way more than I could finish last time. Great fresh food , cooked to perfection , priced fair, with really good service. We will be back for sure.
