I would have taken a picture but I ate it. My BLT was fantastic. The bread was perfectly toasted, the tomatoes were thick, lots of mayo and the bacon was perfectly cooked. Great service and great food. read more

Been a few times now. Really good food and the folks have always been polite and prompt.

This is a neat little place, really not much else in town too eat as it's so small. But it feel a bit old timey. Interesting history on walls and some tables. The steak fingers were real good! The burger was lacking if you ask me(a bit thin and a bit dry, not the best meat flavor), good bacon on it though! If I get another burger and it happens to be better I'll update. Fries average and tots were good. To be fair it was our first time and only been there once so far. The fry sauce was also on point. The fry sauce and Tots are similar to Big Juds if your looking for a comparison. Looking forward to going back for steak fingers and fried mushrooms! The service was average. read more

Over priced and bad experience. I had a potato peel in my chocolate malt. Other items were fair.

Fresh, thick burgers and yummy onion rings! Don't be in a hurry... but it's worth the wait.

We had a fun experience as a large group and were really taken care of. The portions were perfect sized. I had eaten here about two years ago when I came to bring my daughter to school at BYU-Idaho. It was ok then but they have made some major changes and for the better. I like how everything is a combo now. I will be bringing my family back here when we come up to visit again. My wife loved the new decor. I could care less about that kind of stuff. I just require good food and drinks with free refills. I will admit, it did look nice and I noticed the decor myself. Which is huge because I DO NOT notice stuff like that, ever. It was clean and the staff was very friendly. We thought maybe the restaurant was under new ownership. My wife asked and learned that it was just under new management and has been for a little over a year. The manager was very accommodating to us. She truly seemed as if she liked being there with kids. She was patient and kind while teaching them. It was refreshing to see, there are not a lot of places like this little joint anymore. The staff is mostly made up of high school kids who working their first job. Bravo to the owners for supporting the kids in this tiny town like that. Also- The manager gave our younger kids their choice of coloring books, crayons, and entertained them a bit too. We got to eat a meal in peace after a long road trip. It felt as if we had come home to grandmother's house, but she was not old enough to be anyones grandmother and was much younger than me. I'm old. The place just had a very inviting atmosphere. If you have been here before in the past, try it again. It was worth every penny. I threw extra tips in the tip container when I left because I was so pleased. I say it again, bravo! This restaurant has made phenomenal changes. I normally leave short reviews, but I had to share more. read more

Cute atmosphere. Loved the diner feel. The BLT was amazing. It had a buttery taste to the bread. All the Pattie's for the hamburgers were burnt so it was kind of disappointing. The other flavor of the triple bypass was good though. Also we got home and two of our burgers were missing. Maybe will try again another time because we heard so much good about this place! read more

Old fashioned burgers with a classic diner feel. They did the lettuce wrap right with ample jalapenos and thick bacon. It was a masterpiece. My wife and daughter said the buns were toasted with butter to perfection. The fries had the skin on and were made fresh. The tots were crisp and golden. read more

I was absolutely starving when I ate here so idk if it was better because of it, but either way it was kinda gross overall. My food was ok and I ate a lot cuz I was hungry, but even the fries were bleh. I wouldnt eat there again but if i was starving and there were no other options i wouldnt mind. read more

Great food, friendly service and nice atmosphere. This is the kind of diner I would frequent if I lived locally. Happy we stopped in!

Local beef and potatoes! We've visited here 4 times in about 2 weeks. Everything has been delicious and fresh. Can't beat the vanilla malt. Would definitely recommend the tater tots and fri sauce. read more

Ole's is a bit of a hidden gem. Homegrown taste but better than I can make at home. Great customer service and atmosphere. Definitely recommend. read more

Went here for dinner. Place is clean but the service was something to be desired. Two burgers, two fries, a burger patty, and kids meal. Half the food came out together. Obviously the kids chicken was microwaved as it was extremely hot, they served a burger patty and fries with no fork. Gee I know my son is a teenager but he's not a Neanderthal, who eats a bare patty without a fork? I guess they plastic ware isn't a thing there or they are too lazy to wash dishes? We watched the couple after us get their entire meal before the second half of the food was brought to us. We watched the cashier look dumbfounded when my husbands burger came out. She didn't know where it went. A few minutes later the last burger came out (the special-a cheeseburger). By this time my kids had finished their food and I was irritated that simple customer service skills were so lacking. The cashier/server walked like a sloth, as if it was just too much trouble to walk across the small dining room to deliver the food. I don't mind waiting for food but I certainly do not want to wait while our food order is not important enough to be cooked together. Who serves half a table food? It's rude. As a former manager in food service this is a big no no. Also, it was obvious they didn't have their hood system on as the whole dinning room smelled like hot oil. Maybe their service is better when it's not run by incompetent high schoolers during the school year but who really knows. All I know is this place is raved about by long time locals but they obviously have no clue about customer service. Also, we watched two parties leave and nobody actually cleaned or biased the table. No thanks, I'll take my hard earned money elsewhere. read more

Did a random search for restaurants near Rexburg, Idaho on our way up into Montana. Found this gem and glad we did. I'm not one to give 5 stars as there is always room for improvement with any place. The serving size is amazing and no way we could eat it all! Hubs says it's dinner at the hotel. It was my mistake that I didn't ask for my meat well done but they graciously took it back and cooked it longer without issue. Next time we are in this area visiting family, they are coming with us. Hubs didn't think he could finish off a Triple Bypass burger, but next time he will come hungry. Great staff, very clean and a laid back vibe! read more

Wow. Excellent burgers!! So glad we pulled off the hwy because these hamburgers are delish! Huge long cut fried or tator tots come with each burger and they are very generous. Nice to sit on the patio with our pups. Thank you Ole. read more

Came for the first time and it literally took us over an hour to get our food. When we did, the fries were obviously under cooked they were so heavy from oil! The burger was really dry and tasted kind of burnt. Fried mushrooms were so greasy and gross, again from not enough time cooking. Super disappointed. Not worth the trip at all. Service and food are a bust read more

Opted to dine in Sugar City @ Ole's. Glad we did. Polite and personable boys served us as first time diners. Generous with our orders and milkshakes were super thick. Will plan to stop again when we're back in the area. read more

I had heard so many good things about this place, so on the way back from a day of swimming with friends, we decided to stop here and give it a try. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We had a group of 9 and it must have overwhelmed them because our food took a very long time to come out and they forgot about a few things we ordered so we had to go in and ask for them again. The food was all delicious, but inconsistent- some fries cooked well done and some underdone. Despite those things, I think it's worth another try. read more

Son brought home Ole's. It was so good and he and the grandson were impressed as well

Excellent friendly staff. Super cute and super clean classic burger shop. The burgers are juicy and flavorful, generously topped with the fixins of your choice. The fires are fresh cut, fried once and served hot. Yum! You can also get tester tots and a variety of fun sides. Reasonable prices. A must-try when you're in the area. read more

A local favorite! Fries. Huckleberry shake. Digger dog. Tots. A Sugar City gem. Always happy to take our out-of-town guests here for a bite. read more

This place is a nice find, a hidden gem just a bit off the beaten path in Sugar City, Idaho. They feature a variety of fun burger options, fried foods, and shakes, but their special niche is a truly home style flavor that you can't get from a chain restaurant. My first bite tasted just like a burger I would have made myself at home. Many places call themselves "home style," but these guys really are. I tried the jalapeño burger and it surprised me on several levels. The bacon was very thick and had a nice smokey flavor. The jalapeños were fresh--not pickled--giving the burger a delicious and unexpected kick in the pants. I went with the tater tots (good & plentiful), but their fresh cut fries looked good too. I was also surprised by the quality of the bun...this wasn't the typical excuse for a bun you get at a fast good joint. It was fresh, tasty, and actually added to the meal. The restaurant itself was very clean and bright. I strongly recommend you give this place a try--I know I'm going back soon. I'm still kicking myself for not trying the huckleberry milkshake (darned New Years resolution). read more

By far best place to get a Burger. Shakes are usually very good once in a while a little thin. A lot like 5 guys. Natural cut fries, good quality meat and produce, their bacon on their bacon cheeseburger are top notch. Good variety on their menu. You'll enjoy it read more

Ole's - a sign for ole's burgers and fries - American Near Me - Sugar City, Idaho

Just ordered dinner for 8 people from here and picked it up. The staff were very friendly, and it has good country vibes, which many people around here will appreciate. The burgers were amazing and the value you get compared to a franchise restaurant is exceptional. If you like high quality food, you will enjoy this restaurant. read more

We were starving by the time we drove through Sugar City and luckily found Ole's just off the main drag. It was the perfect old school diner with homemade fries, burgers and delicious grilled cheese. Plus a dozen milkshake flavors. read more

Love the fresh homemade French fries and the French dip au jus was the best we've ever had. Definitely a great place to stop on our trip for lunch! read more

I really cannot overstate how good the food is here. Some of the best burgers I've ever had and compared to the rest of the food in Rexburg it is the only place worth spending a date night. Wonderful burgers and fantastic sides. Some of the best service my wife and I have had as well. read more

So I'm a little annoyed here about a month ago we came here to eat yet again and I specifically asked the girl at the counter that I wanted my bacon extra crispy that means in dummy terms to cook it longer so that's its almost crispy or crispy I don't like My bacon chewy and half cooked that's what it was. I think from one cook to another someone needs to show there cook how to cook crispy bacon. I think instead of writing crispy bacon she wrote extra bacon I didn't want extra bacon on my burger not that I'm really complaining too much because I love bacon but sure not chewy. If I want it chewy I'd eat it raw! Anyways the service wasn't quite up to par either because while we were waiting for our food the girl at the counter was talking to all her little friends and let our food sit there for a good 5 - 10 minutes and get cold. Stop talking to your stupid little friends or the owner about stuff and treat your customers like they want to be treated. She never came back to check on us once the whole time we sat there didn't bother to ask if she could refill our water or a dang thing. Kept socializing with her precious little friends and totally ignored us I'm not leaving a tip if I get ignored and food comes out cold and with half cooked bacon. Finally as we're ready to leave she finally asked as we're getting up to walk out if we needed anything we just ignored her and walked out. Don't know if I'll come to dine in here evet again for a while. I'll just do call ins but I won't be ordering a burger with bacon on it anymore either until you can figure out what crispy bacon means! read more

Nice small town burger joint, but nothing to be impressed with. They were busy with the lunch rush when we were there. Maybe 20 people and the two workers couldn't keep up. Chicken sandwich was well cooked and a nice size real chicken breast. Fries were made fresh from local potatoes but I preferred the tots. Not sure there is a reason to go back. There are better burgers in the area. read more

Great place to eat they make there own fries from whole potatoes and make real milkshakes from ice cream. Will be back again!

Oles is one of the best restaurants in the area. It's better than most places in Rexburg in my opinion. The fresh, cut fries are amazing.

Their milkshakes and tatertots are super good. And their hamburgers are delicious. Highly recommended

We saw many great reviews about this place and expected a more formal setting either way we decided to eat there. I got the bacon burger and my fiancé got the jalapeño burger. They didn't take the seeds out of the jalapeño and my fiancé was dying when we went for something to drink it tasted like mold. The fries were okay but they tasted like they were old. I liked the tater tots. read more

Their burgers are good but their fries and their grilled cheese are my favorite! The customer service is great. I love going here. Definitely try their fries! They're not worth skipping here. read more

Great family owned business well kept nice and clean and the food was amazing I recommend you go and try it

I don't give out 5 stars very often, but I'm a sucker for hole-in-the-wall small town restaurants and this has to be on of the best ones I've been to. It's pretty small, but the atmosphere is still fun. We seated quickly and fed just as quick. I got the BBQ Bacon burger and it was delicious! Their fries are delicious and I'm assuming that it is because I saw them hand cutting them so they were fresh. If you are looking to get something outside of Rexburg and don't want to drive all the way to Idaho Falls, then I would highly recommend Ole's. We'll definitely be making regular returns. read more

The eating experience here was average. Food was average. I came to leave a review, and I was very surprised by the responses by the owner. I found them very rude and inappropriate. Just because a customer had a bad experience at your restaurant does not mean you can diminish their experience. I will not be returning. I do not support a business who is unwilling to hear criticism from their customers. read more

The service was a bit slow, even though there were 3 people working and no other guests. It took 10 minutes to get our shakes and another 10 for our burgers. The fries were cooked, but not enough to get crisp at all and they had no salt. Fortunately they were willing to swap them to tots which were a bit better. The huckleberry milkshake was tasty, but riddle with ice chunks. The burgers, fries, and milkshake weren't worth the $11.50 I paid for them. read more

I served my mission here in Sugar City and I fell in love with Ole's. I came back up here to show my family around and I was so excited to show them this place. I personally prefer the tots, but literally everything I have tried on the menu has been top notch. Make sure you have a shake! read more

Freakin wayy good. I've gotten about 5 different things on the menu! Jalpeño burger is bomb. Quality food done small town right. The best burger place you'll never hear about. Just a hop skip and a jump away from Rexburg for all you college kids. read more
