Bourbon Steak Bar Burgers

By Molly Abraham

Michael Mina’s top-rated steakhouse inside the MGM Grand Detroit has added an appealing bar-only menu — and it’s a hit. Five signature burgers (beef, turkey, falafel, lamb, and salmon) on house-made buns are the choices. The wood-grilled burgers are listed on a sushi-bar style menu, complete with a small pencil provided for patrons to check off their preferences — from degree of doneness to toppings. Other Mina steakhouses around the country are also serving the bar menu. 1777 Third St., Detroit; 313-465-1684. $18
