Comet Burgers

The ambiance was great ! It reminded me of an 80's diner kinda like in riverdale ! So if you're looking for a diner with that aesthetic I would absolutely recommend comet burgers. The food was a solid 9.5/ 10 for me. I got the comet slider I believe that had the egg on it. It looked really good when it came out and it tasted even better ! I personally just don't like runny egg yolk but it went really well with everything on the burger and I was so surprised by that. I definitely recommend :)The service was amazing as well... there was great customer service. The employees were very friendly and knowledgeable about their food. I came here with my brother and my niece and they also said the customer service was pretty good. We enjoyed ourselves and most likely will be back !

Always wanted to try this place and I finally got takeout the other evening from here. We placed our order over the phone and it was so loud on the other end we could barely hear what the girl was saying, and she was having a very very hard time taking our order. I was worried it would be incorrect, but they got everything down correctly. My husband got a patty melt, fries, and a fruity pebbles milkshake. The fries were cooked well but lacking seasoning, his patty melt was just ok nothing special, and he loved his fruity pebbles smoothie. I got a slider, cuzzy burger, corned beef egg rolls, and an Oreo milkshake. The cuzzy burger was so disappointing! I was really looking forward to it from all the good things I read about it, but honestly the classic slider tasted much better. The corned beef egg rolls were delicious. My Oreo milkshake was mediocre, wouldn't get again. Overall not terrible, but not amazing. If I did cone back I would probably just get corned beef egg rolls and their classic slider.

A must try! We loved the food and the theme of this diner. I got an Earth burger, milkshake and fries - all delicious! The fries were perfectly done and the burger was one of the best black bean burgers I've had. The staff were helpful, the service quick, and the prices pretty reasonable. Would highly recommend, hope to be back soon!

The Cuzzy Burger was the People's Choice winner at the 2024 Burger Brawl .... and I visited to try both it and the corned beef egg roll.The burger uses wonderfully melty Gruyère cheese is heavily sauced with:- Onion jam- Garlic mayo- Zip sauceThe bun is perfection toasted. The patty has good beef flavor, but is overwhelmed by the sauces. The dill pickle slices are fresh, chilled and crisp.The sauces are excellent, but for my palate, too much ... but I am not going to fuss over it. The people have spoken and I accept their judgement.The corned beef egg roll is good, not great. Needs more sour, sauerkraut.The venue is best described as modern diner, well executed and clean. The unisex bathroom was clean.Sue was my server. She is knowledgeable, attentive and appropriately chatty.Value? This is Royal Oak. Rents are nuts. The value is good considering their Main St. location.Will I return? Yes; I will return, inspite of the city's unreliable, troublesome, lousy, half-baked, thieving, poor excuse for an automated parking system.

Stellar sliders, solid shakes, and chill atmosphereI ordered a double-cheeseburger slider and vanilla shake. The Slider: the bun is not cakey but rather a soft sponge-type bread that absorbs the juice of the burger well. This leaves a great meat-to-bun ratio, and the cheese melt is glorious, covering every part of the patty. I witnessed the maestro on the grill as he made my sliders, and he used the tried and true "pinch and pull" method of lifting the patty off the grill. I then saw him scrap the melted cheese on the grill and add it to the burger. It was a marvelous process to witness and a magical taste to experience. The sliders were hot, cheezy, and accompanied by caramelized onions and a touch of ketchup added for some sweetness. I was highly impressed by the double-cheeseburger sliders I ordered, so much so that I ate 5 in total. The Shake: It was creamy and delicious, and it was just right in that Goldilocks zone of not being too thick and not too milky. I ate lunch on a Sunday, and there were only a few other diners, so it was a very calm and chill environment to enjoy my food in. The service was prompt and respectful. I was not waiting long either for my order to be taken or delivered.

Old school burger feel with a modern touch. People here are very nice and friendly. The food is great. If you're in Royal Oak and want some old school sliders check em out.

This place is a small cute place in Royal Oak, Mi with friendly staff and service. Food cooked to order and the place is pretty clean . Must stop by to try the fries.

Delish! Accidentally got bbq on my burger and loved it. Will return, probably tomorrow, lol.So good.

We have been coming here for years and we love this place. They recently changed ownership on September 15th. We met the new owner Lon, and he was super nice. He has been in the restaurant industry since he was 13 years old, for over 40 years. He was the owner of a few restaurants as well. Yes he did make some changes, but they were good changes. Instead of frozen sliders, he buys fresh sliders 5 days a week. They are now 2 oz instead of 1. They taste really fresh and delicious. The chilli cheese fries used to come in two sizes and in a plastic container. The paper would always rip and get into my fries. The fries were also soggy sometimes. The fries are now on a nice metal tin. They are actually crunchy and taste better. I thought the food was delicious. I saw some people say there was no fountain drinks. That was probably because he was getting a brand new machine. We had fountain drinks when we were there and we saw the brand new machine they got installed.He is planning on making more changes. He wants to make it more of a space theme because of the name of the restaurant. He said he will update the decor on the walls and all the seating. I understand some people are upset that there is new ownership, but Lon seems like a great guy. He talked to us for a long while and explained that his main goal is to have fresh food. He doesn't want to use frozen patties. He was super nice to us and we are excited to come back in.

I have always seen Comet Burgers in downtown Royal Oak but never stopped by. I was browsing Uber Eats tonight looking to possibly order dinner, and they had a ridiculous promotion up: spend $15+ on your order, and get $15 back. I figured that had to be a mistake but lo and behold, it worked! (I'm not sure if this is because I have "Uber One," the premium version, or what ...)I ordered two sliders, no ketchup/mustard (I'm a burger purist), with just the pickles and onions; six mozzarella sticks; and a large order of fries. My bill was like $15.05, and with taxes and a tip, I paid about $5 out of pocket. :O The verdict:-Sliders: very good, though I wish it had more onions (those were tasty)-Mozzarella sticks: delicious, and still nice and crispy-Fries: still crispy, which was good, but could use some salt. Didn't taste like any was on it. Also a large portion.Although the company may not have made much off my order, they now have a new customer, as I will be ordering again when I am craving sliders and/or mozz sticks! I also saw they had fried mushrooms, which I love, and seasoned fries, so perhaps will try those next time. My only complaint is that from the time I placed the order, to the time I received it, was about an hour (and I live 10 minutes from Royal Oak), but I suspect this is more to do with Uber Eats than with the restaurant.Thanks for the discount and also the tasty food!
