"This was the worst food that I have ever had.. I had grown up eating White Tower years ago. I returned home to Toledo after living gout of out and was excited to try a Butter Burger and enjoy some nostalgia to be utterly disappointed. White Tower was a big deal and for many years and what I found was a truly sad shell of what was a neighborhood and city diner. I went in to pick up my order and the inside was disgusting and dirty. The building was never pristine, but this was horrible. The staff was nice but when I got my food home my $12 butter burger platter and drink felt like I had been robbed. There were literally 10 fries and they were soggy dripping in grease and not even fully cooked. I couldn’t eat them. I fed them to my dog. The burger was horrible with almost no condiments and nothing that I asked for. The cole slaw was dry and disgusting and my drink was in a tiny cup. A fond memory growing up with my mother going to eat there was obliterated. I didn’t finish my burger that was also soggy and gave it to the dog. The young girl who worked there told me that she had been there for two weeks and customers tell her the place has been there forever and I told her that I am 58 and went there as a child. I had hoped for a pleasant experience but was very sad and upset that I would have had a better meal from McDonalds and it would have cost less. I have no idea how it has survived. I looked at the menu and they are trying to make it look upscale but it’s broken down and sad. The very worst meal of my life"

"Disappointed is an understatement…I loved mikes for its classic no frills atmosphere and delicious food at an affordable cost. My parents fell in love over their griddle cakes and continued to rave about this place throughout their many decades of marriage. So naturally, of course, I fell in love with the place as well. I continued to patronize Mike’s even throughout the heart of the pandemic because the food was THAT good! I recommended this place to countless friends and family members visiting the city or venturing to clinton hill for the first time. They all had nothing but glowing reviews of this adorable, cozy diner. Vacations, birthdays, holidays, even funerals, you name it, everyone in my family loved eating at Mikes!Unfortunately, today I ordered a takeout cheeseburger that came with the added luxury of a MOLDED hamburger bun. I have patronized this spot more than a few dozen times under the old owner and I have never been served something like this. The bun was so moldy that I find it hard to believe that the cooks did not notice it, especially since it was not busy. I noticed the mold within 3 minutes of opening the box… I also worry about how many other burgers were served today from the same moldy package of buns that I almost had the pleasure to enjoy. I understand that mistakes happen but the level of mold on this bun is completely unacceptable. Mold to this degree takes more than just 2 weeks to develop. I was so disgusted that I couldn't even bring myself to take a picture of the top bun without gagging. It saddens me to say that my family, friends and I won’t be patronizing this establishment anymore. Mold is incredibly dangerous and with some types, it can even be fatal. I am beyond disappointed…. This is how you lose loyal customers."
