Hi-D-Ho Drive In

We were hungry and decided to give it a try, and I'm so glad we did! The mushroom Swiss burger was delicious, the fresh limeade was very refreshing, and the burgers were perfectly cooked! They were busy and I can see why, very worth it, and worth the wait. The waitress was working her butt off and did a great job!

We had tried this place a couple of years ago, and I was not impressed with their Mexican food. I mean, they spell ¨chile¨, either ¨chilie¨or ¨chili¨, so that should give you an idea. This time, I was craving a fresh homestyle burger, so decided to give this place another try. I got the mushroom swiss burger, added bacon to it, and it was REALLY good! The bacon was decently thick, not the cheapo premade paper thin stuff. The fries were nice and crunchy, but were not salted and were the thick type of fries, so they were bland, and really dry and starchy. This is a DRIVE-IN. It's a 50s style drive-in (someone on here related it to an 80s drive-in... uhm... ok,... maybe that's a typo, because Drive-Ins started in the 50s, NOT the 80s, lol. For instance, Sonic Drive-In was started in 1953). And like a 50s style drive-in, you order from your car. We were there during the lunch hour, so it was pretty busy. It might've taken 30 mins for our food? NOTE: This is NOT fast food. They have signs all over the place that their food is NOT fast. Do not expect to get your food within 5 mins. It is cooked to order, they are very popular and VERY busy with both drive-in orders and phone orders (maybe call ahead of time, if time is an issue for you?). So expect a wait. We were expecting a wait, so this was no problem to us.

When we pulled up we realized it was a "stay" in your car type eatery but they do have covered outdoor sitting. The server came to our van and took our order. They are spose to be famous for their burger. We did order the burger and it was good but if this is the best of the best in the state then I need to open a burger joint! We also had fries and onion rings. Not much really anything that stood out or to complain about either. Our server was friendly and efficient.

Came for the burger with some green chilies and it was so good! It's very rare when I want to eat a burger and I never had one with Texas toast, grilled pineapple and roasted green chilies! I came around 1:30 waited about an hour and they had plenty of warning signs letting you know that this isn't a fast food joint! They have car service, outdoor seating and call-in ordered. The location isn't very appeasing but it's a hamburger joint what did I except. Make sure you get the strawberry shake or else you will regret it! The service was great you can tell they work really hard! If you're looking for a unique but TASTY BURGER this is it!

3.5 rounded to 4 Good casual spot to stop at after a day at White Sands. It's a drive-in, but there is plenty of covered outdoor seating as well. Someone will come by to take your order and bring out the food, and you pay at the register inside. I ordered the hamburger platter with green chiles added. I definitely recommend adding the green chiles since it gives it an extra flavor boost. The food is made to order and our wait was around 20 minutes. The burger was good, a little on the dry side, but the toppings helped round it out. The fries are just ok. Maybe I had high hopes for this place considering the reviews and because it was recommended to me, but I thought it was just an ok burger place.

We were recommended some other places from our hotel worker but when we were driving to those places we noticed a lot of cars here. It had old drive in vibes so we decided to pull in and give it a try. Being from out of town, we didn't know how to order. We walked inside the door and the server immediately handed us menus and said to have a seat outside and she would be with us shortly. She arrived promptly and took our order. We went for the burger combos. We got a hamburger and the Mayton burger and added green chilis. The food did take a bit to come out but the weather was nice so we just enjoyed our conversation and sitting outside. They brought the food to the table in paper bags along with our drinks. The fries were tasty and there were a lot of them. Wow! Yum. The burgers were great especially with that green chili. They were large and moist and for me that buttery Texas toast made it even better. Service was prompt and easy. Yes...we waited a bit longer than we are used to but that is just fine when you know they are making it all to order. It was a great find for our family and we will put it on our list when we travel through again.

Not fantastic by any means, but good enough for what it is, cooked to order with nice attentive staff. Fries were (too) plentiful. Reasonably priced, and open late. Don't compare this to a nicer restaurant, but if you're going to have fast food, get a taste of local flavor!
