While in St. George, don't forget to stop by Burger Theory. The staff are very friendly and attentive and the food of good quality. The location also had plenty of fun pieces of art on the wall adding to the overall experience. The location was seat yourself and within a minute I had been greeted and a water swiftly brought to me. When my server came to take my order I placed my drink and app. The server had to take the ID to scan behind the bar and he mentioned that it was a state rule. Then when the drink arrived I placed my burger order. The food all came out hot and fresh. The waffle fries were crispy and the dipping sauce elevated the dish even more. The menu is not elaborate, but there can be some good finds at Burger Theory located on the first floor of the Holiday Inn. read more

The burgers are nothing special. One server is very friendly and helpful while the other one had a grumpy attitude the entire time. The restaurant is inside of a Holiday Inn. The booth chairs are so low compared to the table. Maybe some extremely tall people will find the seating situation suitable. All 6 of us grown adults felt like midgets sitting in the booth. We switched to a regular table right away. There's nothing special that would ever draw us back there again. read more

We loved the food. My only complaint was the slow service. It wasn't busy, and it took over 10 min to acknowledge that we arrived. I had to walk around to find a menu. The selection and prices have changed since the latest photos on here. 2024 menu read more

Just eating lunch at this place today. It shocks me that more people don't eat here. It's inside the hotel so people must not realize it's here. Their burgers are so delicious and they come with super yummy sweet potato fries. It's a huge lunch for two people for less than $20. Buy One Get One Free specials almost everyday. Check it out! read more

Well, the name does back up their burger. They are still trying to figure out how to make a burger. It was dry as a desert wasteland, but the medium doesn't mean a lack of moisture. It means I don't trust ground beef, and I want to be sure it's not pink. 3 different burgers, all the same fate. Between mine, my sons, and wifey, we all just looked like we were swindled by a burger bandit. I just don't get it. It's a burger. You are not creating this in a lab. You're making it on a grill. The service was spotty. He was attentive when we arrived, and that was all. Just "poof," he gone. Not worth the time or hassle, I'm sure there are plenty of better places. Not to self. If they are working on a theory, then they don't have the burger yet. Hopefully, someday, it'll be a burger science. read more

Post St George WC 70.3. Was so hungry. Saw this on yelp and didn't know it is a chain and in the Holiday Inn. Cute place super busy. Did take a bit to get a drink but overall service was good. Several TVs. Full bar n beers. Burger was great and loved the onion ring. Bun was really good too. Would reco and visit again. read more

Burger was just OK and the onion rings were forgettable...definitely not worth the $17 I was charged. Service was horrible. Food took twice as long as it should have to come out and there were only two other tables occupied when i was there. And the server never came and checked on me at all during the meal and never filled my water. Will not return. read more

I decided to try burger theory after receiving a buy one get one coupon. I ordered the Lonestar burger and chicken tenders. Burger was mediocre with a store bought semi stale bun and bacon made yesterday (chewy). Chicken tenders were an appetizer in itself which would normally cost someone $14. Mine were free with the burger but wouldn't even want them for free. 5 small tenders soggy, greasy and one completely inedible as it was under cooked and stringy. Service was good no issues there. Restaurant was nicely decorated and not ugly. They need to lower their prices ($16 for a single patty burger with fries and $14 for a handful of tiny chicken tenders) or really up their game on food quality. Definitely not worth stopping here unless you are staying at the hotel and need a quick bite with low low expectations. read more

First off, this is the sports bar in the Holiday Inn. That works great for those of us staying here. There is a bar featuring 10 local microbrews plus a bartender that will mix whatever else you want. The menu is basic bar food with a focus on burgers but also other items. My first night there I went with the fish tacos. I was hesitant but they were actually pretty good. My second night I went with the wings. Respectable! Considering that food options in that general area seemed skimpy this worked out as a good solution. My biggest complaint would be the service. It seemed like they were doing other things besides waiting on people. I my second night I ordered a side salad. After nearly 10 minutes the waiter arrived with chips and salsa??? I was told that was because the kitchen is generally behind on Fridays so they gave me a free snack. Maybe 5 other tables were being used. I recommend expecting a longer than expected wait for your food. Also, maybe sitting at the bar would speed things up. Those customers seemed to get more attention. Otherwise I found the food and drinks there to be fine. read more

Food was great! I'll stop there. I spoke with one of the managers, she said they're working on the service, service is lacking in leaps and bounds. read more

Best quick stay hotel restaurant we've ever been to. The waiter (Andrew) was very accommodating and considerate of our large party. He took good care of the kids and engaged with them. read more

Really good burgers and beer! I visit St. George once a year and always have at least one meal here.

Great little place inside the Holiday Inn. Good food, good drinks and a fun atmosphere ! read more

Great food but the wait staff is horrible. All empty tables were dirty, even while it was slow, no follow up and just all around unpleasant. This has been my experience for my last two visits. read more

Since my last review of BT 4 years ago, nothin' had changed...until last night. The burgers, fries, rings and adult beverages survived through a lot over time, but last night was &%$#! The buns were dry, the meat was dry, the veggies were limp, the rings weren't done, the service was slow and the price-over just the last few months-rose from $9 to $15 for the Classic or single with just the basics. I understand an occasional bump, but $6 is ridiculous. Two singles with the basics, one with fries, one with rings, and a 16oz. draft cost $39.33. When you've been a regular and know what you want, checkin' the menu seemed unnecessary. I'll remember that next time we go out, it just won't be at BT again. read more

Inside the Holiday Inn, order at the bar near the front desk, there's a tiny seating area at the back of the bar. Burger was a little smaller than expected for the price range, get a double if you're really hongry. I tried the Uptown Portobello, it was more basic than the description made it sound but it was pretty good. Decent battered fries too with a homemade fry sauce. Like the Holiday Inn itself, it was good enough overall but not quite what I expected given the price. Is it better than going down the street to Culvers and spending about half as much for a good burger? Well ... but it is an alright little convenience option if you're staying at the hotel or the nextdoor Hyatt, and you can call orders ahead. read more

Cold fries and sweet potatoes. The burger was dry and flavorless, I also ordered a bowl of chili but I received a bowl of meat and beans floating in grease. read more

We tried their room service in the morning, food comes right on time and hot and fresh. They only have two option for their breakfast room service menu, which is a little bit disappointed, I hope they can put more choice on the menu, But overall, delicious and convenient. And they only add 4$ delivery fee and additional 20% as the tip, good price! read more

Food has gone downhill, ordered ribeye special cooked medium came out rare. Wife ordered lettuce wrapped chicken sandwich. Which came out with two pieces of lettuce and overcooked. Used to love coming here, now have to write this place off. 45 bucks down the drain for veggies and fries. read more

Overall had a great experience at this place. I wasn't expecting it to be in a hotel, but non the less it was still a fun place to eat. I would compare the burger to Five Guys. The portions were good and the service wasn't bad either. It was slow when we went and our server was efficient despite also having to bartend! It was a little to dark in there for me, but I would still go back because the food was great! read more

Burger Theory - The Classic Burger - American Near Me - Saint George, Utah

Had breakfast here while staying at the holiday inn. The breakfast buffet was terrible! $15 for some nasty eggs and flavorless sausage. My wife got the breakfast burrito, she said it wasn't bad. Funny thing, our server asked how our meals were, and I said poor. . Doubt I would recommend this restaurant. read more

Absolutely awful service. Was "greeted" by Todd with a rude "nope need to order food to drink." Okay cool, sorry Todd forgot we were in Utah, different drinking laws. Immediately followed by him demanding our IDs. No "hello, "what can I get you" nothing. Responsible I guess, but whatever. Martini came half empty. Find a different bar. read more

This was just a No. Better Yet, A Never Again. The seats are the first thing I noticed when I sat down. They are too far below the table. The waitress took forever to take our order, and we were the only ones in there. She spent a lot of time on her phone and very inattentive. The food didn't look at all like the pictures on their Instagram. *See photos of Lonestar Burger on attached pics. Everything was mediocre at best. The best way to describe it is this: lukewarm cookie cutter stale, flavorless and overpriced food. Nothing Special. Nothing worth remembering or going back for. The added bonus was the food poisoning one of us got a few hours after we left. It's fitting that they are located inside a Holiday Inn. read more

I was skeptical at first because it I located in hotel. However the restaurant is a departure from the norm when it comes to hotel restaurants. They have a full bar and table seating. I sat at the bar and staff were friendly and attentive. I was happy they had a hefenweizen beer on tap. I ordered a pint along with the southwest style burger that has jack cheese and guacamole on it. It was prepared perfectly. It comes with fries. Ended up eating here twice during my trip! read more

Such a cool restaurant off the beaten path in the holiday inn!! The burgers are so good so go hungry but also you wouldn't think for a burger place fish taco would be that great but my goodness are they delicious!! They have a full bar that offers local beers if your from out of town I highly recommend trying one of the local beers!! read more

Came on Labor Day and there was only a few other parties there so plenty of distancing. Didn't notice any COVID issues. It's the typical non fast food burger chain like Red Robin. Either you can select from some premade choices or build your own. Prices are a little high, but not too bad. The meal will leave you full. Overall we enjoyed our burgers but there wasn't any wow factor to them; nothing to make us rush back. read more

First time at Burger Theory! The burgers were exceptional!! Lots of meat and cheese!! The onion rings were really good!! Fries too!! My drink was refilled without me asking for it, which is a big deal to me!!! I base my tip allot on that!! The service was great, friendly waiter. The only thing that was a little weird was there was an employee who walked threw the restaurant with what looked like bedding. He went into what appeared to be the kitchen area and never returned... Overall it was a great meal and good dining experience... read more

The steak we had was a bit tough. The mashed potatoes were cool when our plates arrived. The burgers were okay. Service took awhile. The restaurant is located inside Holiday Inn so we got lost looking for it. It would be nice if it were noted that the restaurant is inside of Holiday Inn. read more

The place where time stood still. 30 minutes to bring out an omelet... Wait staff is soild but the kitchen is SLOW. Heading to Denny's read more

Interesting place. Inside a Holiday Inn. They serve beer, that's a good thing. We had Fish Tacos and we're surprised that the order came with three tacos. The tacos were good but a bit messy. They came with a very small order of chips and salsa. Neither were good. We also had a burger. It was ok but again very messy. You will need many napkins. Came with a good sized order of tasty french fries. read more

The way we were treated was inexcusable. We were waiting for 20 minutes before we were acknowledged, there was no line at all, and when we tried to just catch someones attention we were treated so rudely. Definitely would not recommend this place. read more

The burger was one of the best I've ever had in my life. I love all the optional toppings. It is nice that they offer a few other things besides burgers. I also like the convenience of it in my hotel. read more

I think they need to go back to the drawing board. The burger I had was less than stellar. When I order a rare burger I expect a very pink middle, what I got was either old gray meat or something that was zapped in the microwave. Either way it did not taste as good as some of the other people who have reviewed this place. I did opt for the onion rings and was pleasantly surprised, even thought I do not typically care for thick cut onion rings these were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside - just they way I like them. For dessert I had the Key Lime mason jar, yep desserts come in a mason jar that are about 3" tall. For me this was just OK. The staff was really friendly and the place looked clean. There are restrooms near by for easy access. As others have mentioned this inside the Holiday Inn, just walk past the Holiday Inn Check-In Counter and the entrance to Burger Theory is on your right. read more

The food was amazing. We ordering it through yelp and went and picked it up. It is a mile from our house so we wanted to check it out. Best fries I have ever had. I am only giving a 4/5 because we ordered extra fries for our kids and they forgot them. I order the food and my husband picked it up so he didn't check. But places do that all the time. But I suggest trying it. The burger was perfect nice and juicy. It is very messy. But the best burgers are. read more

Service was unbelievable. Never have I gone into a dining place and felt so unwelcome by the staff. Terrible service that almost felt purposefully aimed at us for our ethnicity. Seemed like they were lying to us about food preparation and served other guests before us after already being there for 40+ mins. We were the only noticeable hispanics in this place and we were clearly assured of that by the subtle racism. The server was just unprofessional and even being petty towards us. I DO NOT recommend this place at all, just drive the extra minutes elsewhere for better service and food. I rarely leave reviews being understanding of bad days for staff or busy service but this was just unacceptable. read more

Absolutely terrible experience. We came in, sat down, and were practically ignored the entire time. When the bartender finally came to greet us, he was obviously frustrated that he had to serve us. He was incredibly inconsiderate and downright rude. I have reason to believe that we were neglected because of our ethnicity. My family were the only minorities in the restaurant, and while others were being served, we were overlooked. I am disgusted with the service of this restaurant and cannot believe the Holiday Inn would support these individuals. read more

The food here was absolutely delicious. My wife and I split the nacho fries and the guacamole was delicious. She then had the lone star burger and I have a custom double. Kudos to the cook for not being afraid to serve mine actually rare. My wife's burger was medium well and also cooked perfectly. Service was fantastic. read more

Our server was legitimately the most intolerable individual I have ever encountered in my life. I asked him a simple question about the status of my ranch, and he retaliated with the snarkiest and most unprofessional response I have ever heard in a restaurant. He proceeded to not only never deliver the ranch but enlist racist remarks to a coworker just in earshot of our table. I contacted the manager who left me with no response and am quite upset about the venture. Do not recommend. read more

Pass on this one. The place seems like it has potential but falls flat. We arrived and put our name on the waitlist at 6:20 p.m., and we were seated at about 7:05 p.m. Expect to wait for your table. We ordered as soon as we could and our food came out 30 minutes later. I ordered the farm burger and my wife ordered the veggie burger. I tried her veggie burger and it lacked any flavor. I was surprised because we tend to like most veggie burgers. On my burger, I requested to have it cooked medium, I asked the waiter if that would be a good decision and he said that he never orders under medium as he doesn't like anything too rare. My burger came out and looked well cooked, but by the time I got a couple bites into it I could tell that it was pretty pink inside. I asked for someone to call my server over and had him look at my burger and he said it was cooked the way it should be. I decided to take another couple bites, but by the time I was close to the middle it was raw. I then had our waiter come over again and told him it was way undercooked, showed him the burger again and he said "oh that's too bad, are you guys ready for your check?" Never offered an apology or to replace the meal. I didn't want to cause a fuss so we just paid and we both left bitter and hungry. We won't be going back. read more

If it's busy you might as well leave. The food takes forever and my order was wrong both times. And it took so long to get there that you don't have the time to correct the order. It's sad because it's an ok place that's super convenient if you are staying at the Holiday Inn. read more
