Good burger - Edit
Easy to reach, but very small store in a side street.
Read moreThe there is not so much choice but you can differentiate between double patty (homemade patty) and cheese.
The fries were unfortunately not crispy but it has already fit.

Very nice place - Edit
This place was perfect for us. We've grown a crawing for some non-japanese food now by the end of the trip and these burgers really hit the spot.
Read moreI had the Superior Burger with fries and ended with an icecream with cherry chip.
The burger was not too much, I really enjoyed the taste of the bun and patty. The cherry chip was amazing! Highly recommend for sharing if your not too stuffed.
Almost everything is made from scratch which I find very impressive.
Also friendly staff that speaks good english!
5/5.

Stellar Burgers - Edit
One of the best burgers I’ve had and I’ve had mannnyyyy. Everything was seasoned well and flavors were unique but classic at the same time. I loved the fries as well since they reminded me of in n out fries which I adore. Milkshake was also good and the atmosphere was cozy. It is a little bit of trek to get to but worth it and you get to see neighborhood along the way

A must visit for everyone in Tokyo - Edit
Great Lakes Tokyo is just off a main road in a small side street but not too difficult to get to. The shop is clean and cute. The staff were kind and the menu is in both English and Japanese. I had the double Michigan burger with fries and a vanilla milkshake. The portion size of the burger and fries were great. The milkshake was absolutely delicious. I wish it would have been bigger but I think it's probably best it's not too big. They have 2 milkshake flavors: vanilla and a speciality flavor that changes. I left totally satisfied and with a full belly.
Read moreAfter eating at Great Lakes, I definitely plan on coming back every time I'm back in Tokyo.
Pros: excellent food, nice atmosphere , easy to locate
Cons: limited shake flavors

Solid Burger Place - Edit
Got lunch here, had the Michigan burger and the Ontario burger. The patty itself was incredible, especially since it was house-made. The tatertots were very good as well! There's not a lot of seating if you come with a large group (like many places in Tokyo) but it wasn't super busy when we went for lunch.
Read moreNot the absolute best burger I've had in Tokyo (that goes to 2foods), but I'll definitely be back!
Would've loved to try a milkshake but the only flavor they had when we went was melon, which didn't interest me.
**edit: have since been back to try the pumpkin spice milkshake and it was to die for. check their facebook page for updated seasonal flavors

Delicious plant based burgers made from scratch. - Edit
Great Lakes was a little hard to find because it was down an alley the proprietors were friendly and spoke English very well. The burgers are customizable and the restaurant states on their menu that life is too short to eat something you don’t like.

Cons: Closed at 7:30pm, A little hard to find

Delicious Vegan Burgers - Edit
Exquisitely savory with a genuine touch of American authenticity, these burgers also delightfully cater to the vegan palette! They are beautifully complemented by thoughtfully paired sauces. The homemade patties won't disappoint, showcasing a superior quality. Moreover, the matcha shake stands out as the best matcha-infused creation I've experienced this month. Complemented by the courteous staff, this spot comes highly recommended!
