Clean, good food, and friendly service. Not the best burger I've ever had, but it was still very good. The fries are made from fresh taters (and were way better than 5 Guys). The server, Linda, was great as well. Hire's excels at the old fashioned diner vibe. read more

Terrible service, terrible food. They couldn't give any care for their customers. The manager at 7th e 4th s in slc was rude and made it clear that his ego came before helping customers. I called their corporate number many times to complain and they never pick up. Never, ever going back. Don't waste your money. read more

Tasty burger and fries. Only thing keeping me from giving them 5 stars is whether the meat is grass fed. It doesn't state on their web site or menu. read more

Hires Big H - Mug of root beer - Burgers Near Me - Midvale, Utah

Hires is a staple in my family. Any time I am in town or we want to celebrate without breaking the bank we go to Hires. The majority of my family would say that Hires has the best burger in SLC and I don't know if i would go as far to say it is the BEST burger, they have incredible burgers. The buns are powdered with flower to perfection and the meat is amazing. Hires is also known for their french fries, onion rings, fry sauce (a Utah tradition), and their famous frosty mug of root beer. Hires also has a full menu of unique burgers, sandwiches, and salads along with a separate menu that you can order pizza on (disclaimer: I've never ordered pizza there cause their burger is too good). Depending on the night it may be very busy, but they also have a car hop service that makes the experience that much better. read more

We were super excited for root beer floats and thought Hires big H was perfect. I understand it's a Saturday night and most places are busy but the restaurant was a disaster. Half the tables were filled with dirty dishes. We sat for 15 with no one talking to us and ended up just leaving. read more

Won't be going back. Quality of food is crap. Went to the Fort Union location. Waitress didn't get anything right with our order, got half way home and noticed there were items missing. Turned around went back, got missing items, got home with cold and soggy food at this point, noticed there were still missing items! Didn't make the food as we asked it to be when ordered, no condiments, sauces (at .40 cents per extra sauce that we paid for). Had a veggie burger and the patty was literally 1/4 inch thick if that. Not worth it at all, take your $ to someplace quality. read more

Good burger on a fresh bun but I paid $6 for 6 onion rings, by my calculations that's $1 per ring... Seriously overpriced read more

This is the best burger and fries available in the city if not anywhere! Fresh ground beef on a fresh, house recipe bun with hand cut fries. Not to mention, lunch to go for five was ready in under 10 minutes!! This will be my go to burger joint!! read more

I've been going to Hires since I was a kid. My dad used to take us there after baseball games and other activities. The onion rings are amazing. I really enjoy their burgers as well. The greasy spoon diner feel of the place is part of the magic. read more

We love this place. My personal favorite is the car hop! It's fast, it's easy, the girl is sweet & professional. Every time the order is right & they're fast. I will always recommend! read more

Best burgers, and onion rings, I ever had, and love there shakes, frosted root beer mugs, great place to go

Hires has the best veggie burger in Utah! Their avocado veggie H is my favorite item on the menu. Great flavored sodas, cheese fries (and fry sauce!), and shakes. Great diner experience. The restaurant is always clean and service is always friendly! read more

The midvale location is going through some interesting renovation...they are like combining with a pizza place right now or something and it's just not ready yet. It's dirty and slow as of right now. I like the location downtown though. But my burger just wasn't all that great. It was decent, wasn't terrible, but I wasn't craving more when I was done. The location salt lake is more classic and fun. read more

Garret here is the bomb!! Always friendly and when he recognizes a customer's need, he immediately helps them out!! 5 star employee! Prompt, accurate, friendly, quick service. The food was delicious! The cheese fries were loaded with cheese for sure! read more

Excellent choice from the yelp reviews. Burgers were good, fries and fry sauce were excellent and my wife had the chicken noodle soup. It was excellent like your Grandma would make. They are renovating, but the service was good and the place is pretty cool. Love the family story behind the restaurant. read more

Well we walked in there were three tables with about 3-5 people each We sat down and a party of six walked in after us the waitress went and took that large party of six order before ours there was two of us... crappy waitress read more

Hires is a hot spot for lunch and dinner and it's ALWAYS worth the wait! But our most recent visit to Hires was outstanding! We had the most personable and attentive waitress, our order was to our table in less than ten minutes, and the food of course was amazing per usual. I always recommend Hires, especially if you're from out of town, YOU HAVE TO TRY IT!! (You can never go wrong with The Big H combo and a Frosty Mug!) read more

I love the Big H in all its forms. A great tasting Burger. this is one of my favorite places to get a burger. The servers are friendly. The atmosphere is fun. read more

Ordered two doubles to go. Waited 30-45 min for the food to come out. Got home and noticed we received two singles. This kind of stuff is so basic that McD's gets it right. Burgers were good but between the slow service and getting the order wrong I won't likely be back. read more

We love Hires Fort Union. They consistently serve great food and the service is always wonderful. We also love the cleanliness of this restaurant. We as a family and our friends go there at least three to five times a month. We highly recommend this restaurant. read more

The food and service are both excellent! I love the cranberry turkey sandwich and the spaghetti, not to mention the Avocado Big H and onion rings! I had the chicken noodle soup and it was filled with meat. Super good This time we had the spaghetti and lasagna and it was delicious as well. We haven't found anything on the menu that we didn't like read more

screaming children, disgusting dirty floor, sticky tables & menus, ketchup on the wall I was seated against, greasy soggy fries, forever wait for drink refill, nice, friendly server. Seriously, who puts solid black carpet in a restaurant dining room. Every crumb, french fry, napkin, piece of crap shows & it's nasty!! The best thing about the place was that I was given a gift certificate & didn't have to pay for most of our meals. We ordered 3 sandwiches & no one enjoyed theirs. We hadn't been there in years & now I remember why. read more

I do think they have some of the best onion rings in Utah! Very tasty and crispy but no greasy. Burgers are good but not great, but overall the experience is generally good. We have had Tina as our server a couple of times now, and she is always perky and upbeat. read more

One of the few good regular burger joints in SLC. Coming back. People were nice. Food was good. read more

This place is strange. The food is good, but it's mainly fast food quality and you have to tip a waiter, so we're talking $10 for a regular fast food meal. My ticket actually ran $10.74 for a burger, fries & $2 tip (no drink.) it was pretty packed too so apparently a lot of people dig it. Weird. read more

I really like this place, and their burgers are great!! Their fries are pretty awesome too. I usually go to the downtown location but both are good locations. If you want a good burger and fries that will hit the spot, you gotta check this place out. I love burgers it's defiantly my cheat meal after a clean eating all week. So even if you care about eating clean the food in this place won't make you feel crappy after you eat it. Service is great too! read more

Average dining w experience, classic spot in the Salt Lake City area, but if small diner spots with great food or something unique is what you seek, look elsewhere. Been here 10+times in 15 yrs since moving to SLC and each time I tell myself never again. Went 2 weeks ago, it seems to be the locals that grew up here and have nostalgia blinding them that keeps this place in business. Its not horrible or bad, its just average and not worth the $$, can pay the same amount at a chain and get better or equal food... and thats against all food rules for me. Cheers. read more

Their food is so delicious but I won't go to the Midvale location again if a certain server is there. The last few times he or someone ran my card twice. He said there was a problem with the system and some people were getting charged twice or three times. Mine was charged again the next day twice on a day they aren't opened, Sunday so I believe it probably was a system problem. I took my credit card statements in after I found out the error and they refunded me the extra charges. When it happened a second and third time I took in my statement, the server would not refund me. I came back another day and another employee willingly returned the extra charges. I haven't gone back since then. I will go to a different location. read more

We love Hires! The Big H is our favorite with fries and a rootbeer freeze. We also love the fresh salads and garlic bread with ranch dressing. read more

A little old school burger joint has got some yum in it. By today's burger standards I would deem this a "light" burger joint, meaning that you won't be super stuffed by a burger and fries (unless you splurge and get a root beer float, burger and fries, which I did). Of course going double patty is an option but I stuck with a single Western H-- bring on the bacon burger. It was a simple but tasty burger that I quite enjoyed. Our waitress was very nice and helpful and was nice to go over board on the ice cream in my root beer float. All and all a good burger treat. read more

This is a nice, friendly establishment. They make a great burger, and the iced root beer was refreshing.

I got the opportunity to meet the owner of the store and his family, very kind people. When they told me to check out their restaurant I didn't hesitate! They food is to die for and the customer service is excellent and very fairly priced. I would highly recommend bringing family and fiends here, you won't regret it! read more

I've been going to Hires for 30+ years now, and it's consistently good food. The Big H, the lemon chicken sandwich, the fries and the onion rings are stellar. We love Hires and it's a Salt Lake institution. Better than the famous C Burger place in town, in my opinion. Each time I go there is at least 1 large table with extended family there of many generations. read more

Love their frosty mugs of rootbeer. Homemade onion rings and everything tasted great. The filthy chairs with crud caked on the back of them between the cushion and the bac really make me lose my appetite though every chair looked like this. read more

Love, love, love Hires! I'm a huge fan of the burgers and the cherry limeade. I would pick going to Hires over any burger joint in town. The only downside, this location doesn't have the best service - I've had everything from inattentive to slow to forgetful servers at this location. Go to the Hires downtown if you want an amazing experience all around. read more

Great fries, fry sauce, onion rings. Burgers are good, not great. People are very nice. Price is too high for what you get. Frequently too cold in dining area. Frequently screaming babies & kids running around. Points program is good. read more

Not really sure what the hub-bub is all about. Burger was average. Really, Culver's is just as good; no, better. O Rings were big and crispy, not overly greasy, so I give them a B rating. read more

Hires is the best you can get for Burgers, Fries and Cherry or Vanilla cokes! Favorite place to take family or friends. Reasonable prices and did I say the food is great! Makes me hungry just thinking about it. read more
