Mug Shots Burgers and Brews

Went to Mug Shots for lunch today for the first time. I feel so silly that we didn't know about this restaurant. The food was really good, and the burgers were huge! We got fried pickles for an appetizer and they were amazing (served with homemade ranch that was #delish). We sat at the bar where I had a great bloody Mary and the owner was so nice and efficient. I had no idea this was connected with mancinos, which is so cool. You can order mug shot food/drinks in Mancinos as well as order a mancinos grinder (or pizza) in Mug Shots. The prices were very reasonable and service was great. We will for sure go back and recommend to others. PS - they served some sort of marshmallow fluff/sauce with my husband's sweat potato fries and it amazing. We've never had that before!!

I had heard about Mug Shots as a comparison to Stella's burgers in Grand Rapids so I thought they need to be tried out. The outer building is a grey color and Mug Shots sign is white so this place does a good job of hiding! The atmosphere here is small. This is a small strip mall with Manchino's (same owner) on one side and a tattoo parlor on the other. They do manage to fit maybe 15 small tables inside. The motif is large decks of cards with mug shots of celebrities. I ordered  a stuffed burger with bacon and cheddar cheese inside. The burger was excellent. High quality meat cooked perfectly. The burger was immensely satisfying and filling. I also got waffle fries that were good but nothing special. The person I was with got a non stuffed burger with pineapple and teriyaki sauce. They stated they never considered that combination, but it worked flawlessly. The burger was deemed excellent. The service was very good. Nothing special but better than average. So did it match Stella...

My husband wanted a burger, so Mug Shots it was! His burger was delicious (as was expected). I had chicken strips, which were also delicious despite not being a burger ☺️
