    HiHo Double and fríes
    Tricia M.

    These are good! I normally can't finish a double cheeseburger but I got through one of these double cheeseburgers and fries in a sitting, no trouble! I loved the sweet pickle and the mustard/ketchup spread (rather than thousand island). The fries were homemade and authentic. Overall good eats here and quick service from the time we ordered to the time our pager buzzed.

    Food was decent, a bit overpriced. The burgers and fries were good, the tenders not so much. If I'm in the area sure but there's other burger places.

    Pastrami Heat
    Annika G.

    I crave a burger every once in a while, and HiHo Cheeseburger did not disappoint at all! I went with a friend who has to eat halal, and this was perfect since their beef is halal. The only thing was that the pastrami on the burger was halal, just not certified - my friend didn't mind though. We ordered a regular cheeseburger and one of their pastrami burgers. The man who took our order was very nice and friendly, and also happy to answer our questions regarding if the meat was halal - just to check. He also answered questions about portions, which made ordering really easy. We got our food after a bit of a wait (but no worries), and we sat down. The restaurant itself was nice and clean, and it was pretty calm when we went. The burger patty was so juicy and smoky, and the rest of the ingredients and sauce went along with it perfectly. I thought the burger looked a little small, but after eating it, I was pretty satisfied. My friend said he could've eaten more. Will definitely have to hit up this spot again, and maybe try their milkshakes.

    Visited my birth state to see family. We went to enjoy the weekend and had a wonderful lunch and decided to eat at HiHo Cheeseburger. Parking: 90 minute parking for Free. The whole area is serene and peaceful. Great place to meet family or have a friendly play date. Our order: Pastrami Heat Classic Single Pastrami fries with cheese Drinks: wine and soda We sat outside to enjoy our lunch. The food is pricy. Receipt states they are a "No Tipping Establishment", however the bill has a line item which states "Fee". The cashier was not able to understand our order clearly. Order was corrected swiftly. Overall the food was delicious! The star of the show was the Pastrami Fries (with cheese is a must!). Thanks for a wonderful afternoon. Cheers~!

    HiHo HiHo to the burgers we go! This place is not too bad. The burger was decent and the fries were ok as well. I also tried a strawberry shake that was basic, pretty much flavoring added to vanilla shake. The service is friendly and willing to give recommendations but their role is really to take and make your order not necessarily serve you. Inside is small but they have a good amount of tables that clear quickly, as most people come in, eat and go. This is a place you can come to with friends, family, or on a date (bonus points if your date would prefer grass fed beef). Overall it was a good experience.

    Excellent double cheeseburger and fries. Was surprised they don't have tomatoes for the burger, but other than that I loved everything. The fries are truly amazing as well.

    Yum. Cant tell you more than wow what a great place to get a burger. Those pickles on the burgers are to die for and I always get a side of pickles cause they are so good. The burgers are packed with flavor and I love the taste. Fries are great. The milkshakes kick butt. Overall my new favorite burger spot. Staff is great and they move fast and are super helpful.

    Crispy-edged wagyu patties, melty cheese, hand-cut fries, and an ice-cold Sapporo.  Studio City favorite.

    HiHo Cheeseburger in Studio City never disappoints. The HiHo Double is everything you want in a cheeseburger--two perfectly seared grass-fed wagyu patties, gooey melted American cheese, crisp lettuce, tangy pickles, and their delicious slow-cooked onions on a soft toasted bun. The hand-cut fries were fresh and crispy, and everything tasted high quality without being overly complicated. Pair it with a cold Sapporo, and you've got one of the best burger meals in Los Angeles. I'll definitely be back!

    Good place for a quick bite while visiting the area. There are few museums close by and the Hollywood bowl arena. Also not too far is the Hollywood area where you can see the stars on the sidewalk. There is also a validated parking lot for 2 hours since parking in LA is a big deal.

    Dead spider and smear on food box

    DEAD SPIDER found on food box. BE WARE! I found a dead spider and smear on the burger box. I ordered via Uber, and when I took the burger box out of the bag, a dead black spider fell out. I opened the box and saw a smear inside, which made it even more disturbing! So I'm assuming and it looks like whoever packaged it may have seen it and even tried to kill it! The first photos are from right when I discovered the spider and opened the box. After that, I picked it up with a napkin and threw the box away, but had to take more pictures later (including the spider on the napkin and the burger out on a plate) because Uber asked for additional proof for a refund. I tried calling the restaurant but couldn't get through, so I emailed and am waiting for a response. This was my first time ordering from here, and it will definitely be my last... GROSS! I now cannot order out and will always pick up an order if eating out and will watch restaurants pack my food.

    Big Matty cheeseburger with fries
    Cesar T.

    So wasn't to impressed for $23 meal. Burger is on small size, flavor was ok. Nothing out of the ordinary. In n out is way better. I think these places that claim they use wagyu meat are scams. Not worth it

    The Willie Mae
    Will P.

    Typically, I get a triple burger but I wanted to try something new today so I got the Willie mae. I think this was a solid sandwich, the honey gave it a nice little sweetness. Not the best fried chicken sandwich I've had, but definitely an interesting flavor profile. The fries are delicious as always and the Matty sauce is crucial!

    I'm putting 4 stars but my true rating is 3.5 stars. Ordered "The Big Matty" ($10.95) which is a HiHo double with matty sauce. The menu doesn't really describe what exactly is in the burger besides the double patty and not ketchup. They use shredded lettuce which is actually the one thing I dislike in a burger because it feels like it's just falling apart with every bite and gets too messy. The burger was good, but not the most amazing thing I've ever eaten. Meat was flavorful which is always appreciated. I'm actually not sure what their Matty Sauce is made of but it was still yummy. Also tried the Hand-Cut Fries ($4.95) which are just your good ol' basic fries. They appear dark brown but they're not well done and crunchy. Still soft with a bit of a crunch. They come in a paper bag with a lot of holes so they don't lose their crisp. Their prices are extremely reasonable especially in this area, but I also feel like I got what I paid for anyway. They advertise that they serve 100% grass fed wagyu beef that comes from First Light Farms so I thought that's cool they let everyone know exactly where they are sourcing their meat. They also seem to make their fries fresh from whole potatoes, buns from a local baker, milkshakes with house-made ice cream and pickles are also made in-house. Good little place if you need a quick bite and craving burger and fries, or there's even honey tenders and chicken tender sandwich that also sound good on the menu. Area was clean, workers were nice and prompt and bathroom was also tidy.

    Good but tasted like In-n-Out to me. But the fries were top notch! I'd go there just for the fries + ranch.

    Is this halal?

    While the beef patties are Halal, there's no guarantee that other ingredients like the fries which are fried in non-Halal beef tallow, also they don't list their ingredients of the bread cheese, and sauces, which might have pork byproducts

    My receipt has a fee other than tax and it was not specified. What is it for?

    So they can post lower prices on food in the menu but still charge you more. Then it appears cheaper when it's not. Honest places don't do this. Just set the prices to where they need to be. This is a very scammy practice.

    Do they take cash? Or is it card only?

    Card only

    Is the Studio City location Halal like their other ones?

    tl;dr the rich and crispy smash burgers are the best in the neighborhood, worthy of the premium…read moreprice; I'm sad to see the Silver Lake location shutter The broad Los Angeles burger scene is equal parts vast and contentious, and many of the most popular spots began amidst the pandemic. Such is the case with Heavy Handed, which debuted as a backyard pop-up just before the shutdown. Heavy Handed distinguishes itself on the basis of its short rib burger base and meme-filled marketing. Heavy Handed transitioned to a food truck in 2021 and now operates two brick-and-mortar locations across LA (this Silver Lake location just closed its doors). The Silver Lake outpost took over the space of beloved diner All Day Baby on a bustling strip of Sunset. The exterior combined HH's signature sunset-orange color palette with psychedelic, LA- and burger-themed murals designed by local artist DJ Neff. The spacious dining room was warmly lit by a red neon strip running the length of the ceiling. Seating options ranged from upholstered half-booths to standard wooden tables and chairs to the bar counter around the corner. Classic rock echoed around the room. My partner and I visited for weekend lunch. We ordered immediately, and our food was available within minutes. We opted to split a Double Short Rib Burger. Immediately, I was impressed by the crispy, slightly charred edges around the circumference. Meanwhile, the center bites were addictively rich and juicy. The thick-cut pickles added a vinegary snap, while the diced onions were caramelized to a jam-like consistency. The service was friendly and efficient. At first, we raised our eyebrows at the $13 pricetag, but we were satisfied with the generous portion and delicious taste. In a busy, burger-heavy neighborhood (including wildly popular peer smash burgers at The Win-Down and Goldburger), this was our favorite one.
