Located in a gas station, this isn't your expected treat. You order at the counter and they call your name when it's ready. This is not fast food, it's cooked to order. I ordered a Breakfast Burger ($17). This has a Fried egg, beef bacon, Swiss cheese, grilled onions, green peppers, tomato, Taystee's Original Sauce with 2 grilled cheese sandwiches as a bun! It is delicious. By far the best gas station burger I've had. But seriously it's probably in the top 10 Burgers I've had. I also ordered an 8 piece Bbq Wings ($12). They were small, but cooked perfectly and very tasty. I really enjoyed them and the bbq sauce. Lastly I got an order of Onion Rings ($8). It was a good size in the order. That being said I thought they were only okay and wouldn't get them again. The service was super friendly and efficient and made ordering super enjoyable. They seemed like they enjoyed their job. Overall a 5 star review. Would I return? Absolutely. A truly delicious burger. If you don't feel like going to a regular restaurant or just want to pick up a delicious burger on the way home, I highly recommend this place.

Taystees is bar for bar the best burger I've ever had. They are halal, which is also a huge plus. Every time I have friends or family visit from out of state who are big burger fans, I immediately take them to Taystees and have only ever heard feedback that it's also the best burger they've tried. I tend to get the Ali's Notchyo Burger, but I've had a bunch of them and have enjoyed them all, although some are definitely too fatty/heavy for my taste. The curly fries here are also incredible. One time, I took a trip to Toronto and stopped by a burger shop and the owner asked where I was from. When I told him Detroit, he asked if I had been to Taystees and when I said 'yes', he had his staff try to whip up a special burger to try and compete with theirs (still wasn't as good as Taystees, although a great burger!) Taystees has multiple locations but the original and the one closer to me is connected to a gas station, so it's interior has some seating but definitely nothing fancy. If you are looking for a more classic restaurant interior, I would suggest going to their newer location as that is fully a restaurant.

The most delicious hamburger EVER. If you want some authentic Detroit cuisine stop in and let the guys hook you up with some halal burgers! This will be my go-to spot. The service was astounding. The fellas were all kind. They had the Lions on in the lobby and it was clean, clean, clean. These dudes had it moving and the wait wasn't very long. I recommend it HIGHLY. Burger of the Year.

Been away too long. Happy to see Lila and her crew again. Same great burgers! The original Dearborn location rocks, unlike the Ann Arbor location.

I had to downgrade from 5 stars to 4 stars. I've been here several times, and I used to grade their burger a solid 5, but not this time. It just wasn't as juicy, or flavorful, as I have tasted in the past. I am wondering if maybe they changed their beef mix? It's a good burger, but I used to grade it as great, among the best I've had. I was there Saturday, around 6:30pm, and the place had 4 empty tables, which I thought was odd - since that was basically dinner time, on a Saturday. Maybe it was just a slow day, but other times I've been there, tables were full, and there were lines of people waiting for food, or to order. I think the fries are different too, IIRC, they used to hand cut their fries from fresh potatoes with a fry cutter, and now they are using frozen fries. The fries are still good, but, not great. It's a good burger, but wasn't a great burger. Taystee's - did you change your meat, or fries?

What a great lunch. I didn't know this place was inside a gas station, but that didn't stop me. I ordered the Chicken bacon ranch melt and a side of fries with ranch seasoning! Made fresh and perfectly! Customer service was nice and genuine. I enjoyed every bite! I can't wait to return for more!

So the first time I came here was in 2018 and I remember this being the best burger I've ever had and til this day, I'll admit it's a pretty solid burger. This place is truly the definition of a hole in the wall because it's on the side of a BP gas station. We stood in line about 5 minutes and it took maybe 15-20 minutes for the food to be ready but honestly they make everything in front of you. The burger tastes delicious because of all of the toppings that go in it. The burger patty itself reminded me of the thin frozen ones you make at a family BBQ. But overall enjoyed our experience and when we're in Detroit again, will have to visit!

Ali's burgers are legit. I've tried 4 of their signature burgers and the Notch-O burgers is still tops in Detroit. Yes, it's in a gas station and the area isn't as fancy as Birmingham, but it doesn't matter the food is delicious and worth the money.

I was looking for a quick bite during travel. Found this place with amazing reviews and locate it right by a BP. There were some doubt before going in as it was by a BP but decided to take a look. Then it surprised me with a wall of awards and we were like this is it. The cashier recommended the Midwest style fries, heavy but fantastic taste. I did not order any soft drink to offset some guilt of having too much calories for lunch. Then I ordered a grilled chicken sandwich, which I have to say that this may be one of the best I've ever had. I did not feel the need to add more sauce or drink water to adjust the taste. It reminds me the chicken sandwich I had from the McDonalds in China, which is higher end compared with ones in CAN or US and different level of quality. I will recommend this for travelers and local folks.
