Ricardo LucianoMarch 10, 2018The Brasserie Burger has good reputation is really tasty! Not the best in town, but are in the top 3! Be prepared to wait ‘cause the place gets crowded! U need to get the fries 🍟 as a side order!
Krysten ThompsonApril 24, 2016I absolutely love! Dimly lit and cozy. Casual little bar/restaurant with mouth watering food! Burgers are their main game but they make it all well. Chowders, Corned beef, Fish n Chips.... Yummy
Harrison DiskinDecember 31, 2013Maybe the most underrated item on the menu. Easily one of my top 5 favorite restaurants. Bravo Red Coat! I also love the WB location.- John KeatingSeptember 22, 2021Burgers and wings are solidly in my top 5. A must when traveling back to Michigan. The have a special ground beef that you wont find anywhere else on earth.
Brenda WolfordJuly 7, 2017When i want a good burger & a beer, I always think Redcoat Tavern. I'm not one to put a lot of toppings, although there are plenty to select from, I enjoy a simple burger.
Arthur RimboldFebruary 16, 2016The Piedmontese burger used to be my favorite along with those of my family friends and coworkers. However, it seems that in the last couple years the quality of the beef has fallen to a low.
Sharon RAugust 27, 2013Impressed by the extensive beer selection from around the world. Very flavorful Piedmontese burger & loved having a burger on a baguette! Savory Chicken Pot Pie.
Elizabeth HaSeptember 12, 2012The manager was so nice. I had my hands full with my newborn and he came out to open the door for me, carried my food to my car and made sure I was good to go. Wonderful service.......for carry out!
John Manoogian IIIJune 5, 2013Ignore the cheesy red lighting and order up a great burger with amazingly flavorful Piedmontese beef. I believe this is only the place in Michigan that serves these.
Kristeena SarverApril 18, 2017One of the best burgers I've ever had. Great atmosphere and swift service. Wine / beer menu is amazing.
H2O LIMOSNovember 2, 2013Wings are meaty and perfect spice. Onion rings r fresh and lightly battered.
Kai HorlbeckSeptember 12, 2011Probably the best Burger I've ever eaten in the US, wish we could have these over in Europe. Don't be scared about the dimmed red light and missing day light inside
Christian KeckAugust 14, 2011Go here even if you have to drive from Ohio - good selection on burger toppings, drinks, and other. Great food- my order burger medium with brntonions, banpeppers, provolone, sautéed mush, on pumpern
If you're a beer person, ask for their library list. Onion rings are a must. And of course the burger, black & blue
Lauren JacksonFebruary 28, 2012The Piedmontese burger and Mac n cheese..or the buffalo tenders and onion rings. Two of the best combos! Also try the "dirty shirley" its AWESOME- Harrison DiskinDecember 31, 2013Maybe the most underrated item on the menu. Easily one of my top 5 favorite restaurants. Bravo Red Coat!
MelanieMarch 7, 2015Fantastic food. Burgers are as good as people say, but fish and prime rib were also delicious.
Andre SoaresFebruary 9, 2017Great hamburguer and great variety of beers. And start with the scotish egg
MarcOctober 13, 2020The Daily Meal's 101 Best Burgers in America: #92 The Original Redcoat Special Hamburger
Piedmontese burger with everything and side of zip sauce then seasoned fries or onion rings! Best $20 dollars you can spend!
Jen-Nay🐾April 5, 2013The Brasserie Burger w/sweet potato fries. Dip sauce zip. You won't go wrong. Good service.
stephanie wentzelNovember 28, 2012Haven't been here in years ... but the place has amazing gigantic burgers. Only thing I didn't like was the red lighting throughout the entire restaurant ... it seemed too dark to eat!
Psst... burgers are all the rave but the lake perch, a regular special, is secretly the best thing on the menu.
Dave HoggSeptember 3, 2018The burgers are amazing, but the Mount Vernon ham sandwich is also fantastic.
Best burgers in michigan no doubt Piedmontese double the beef
Chow Down DetroitSeptember 10, 2014Always get the zip sauce and brioche bun for the burger! It's a must!- William MorrisseySeptember 27, 2013I've been going to the Red Coat since the early 1970's. Absolutely the best burger in the Universe!!
Best burger in town! Get any burger with bacon and guacamole. Do it, do it!
Sue JMarch 31, 2016Delicious burgers. Get the low fat Piedmontese. They are pricey. Charge for burger add-one now.
Best restaurant in the metro detroit area. Everything is amazing, but the best is a piedmontese burger, onion rings, and beef tips as your appetizer. AMAZING!

Robert CostleyJuly 20, 2013Piedmontese anything burgers are the best. Well worth the extra couple of bucks!
StephanieJanuary 5, 2010This is the only place I go when I'm craving a burger. It's the very best - might be the secret sauce. Don't let the dim, red lighting fool you, the food here is great.
