Highway 30 Drive In - Bacon Cheese burger. Onion Rings and a small chocolate shake. Ordered to go. Onion rings still hot when I got home. - Mexican Near Me - Mountain Home, Idaho

Excellent classic drive-in burgers! Don't judge a book by its cover. Worth the drive off the freeway! The server was super nice and quick, and the food was delicious! We left stuffed and happy. read more

Great food! Burgers n fries are my favorite! Wish they were open more. Reminds me of homemade burgers, not fast food garbage

This was a great find. The town of Mountain Home is adorable. The drive in is awesome in that you drive up, they come out with a menu and you can order and eat in your car. I had the burger and fries. Hubby had the Grace's burger and tots. Excellent food. We also got onion rings and those were AWESOME. Shakes were great as well. read more

Huge hamburger with crispy fries was great. Come hungry!! Don't be put off by the retro vibe. Great food - beats the FF and Fast Casual chains. You paid big money for that car - enjoy dining in it! read more

We almost missed this despite actively searching for it, I think because the sign is set back from the road, but are so glad we stopped for lunch here. The food was tasty and service was super. The milkshakes were thick, rich, and delicious. read more

Excellent Burgers and Fries! Looking forward to trying more items on the menu! Great Quality and Service....a must try!

On 6/23/23, I visited Highway 30 Drive In, located in Mountain Home. I ordered a Bacon Cheeseburger ($9.90), which comes with a drink, and your choice of fries or tater tots. I asked to substitute onion rings for an up charge. My meal cost $13.14 + $.52 for paying with a credit card. The grand total was $13.66. Built in 1955, this building was originally KwikCurb Diner. The structure was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in July 2010. Highway 30 Drive In has a 4.7 rating on Google Reviews. I like that they serve Pepsi products. My drink had good carbonation. Like most places, the onion rings are frozen/premade. They were pretty good. I was really excited to try the burger, which was made with care. I'm not that picky when it comes to fast food hamburger patties. The majority of fast food hamburger patties I've eaten have been frozen/premade. But there was something about this hamburger patty that I found off-putting. I'm no expert in frozen/premade hamburger patties, but if I had to guess, I suspect it has a lot of filler. The beef patty didn't look like real hamburger, and it didn't taste like it either. I took two bites, and I was done. Later, I went to take another look at the reviews. Lots of people commented on how big these hamburgers are. In retrospect, I think they are referring to the size of the hamburger patty. Given how much food prices have increased, I can understand why people would be impressed with receiving such a large hamburger patty, as part of a combo deal for less than $10. But I would've rather had a 1/4 lb. burger with less filler. Mexican food makes up about half of the menu. If I were to visit again, I would order off that part of the menu. The service was excellent! Here's how it works. After parking your car, server an employee comes out from the building and brings you a menu. The majority of customers seemed to be doing takeout. If you choose to stay, you can eat in your car, or do as I did, and sit at one of the covered tables on the cement pad in front of your vehicle. Although I didn't care for Highway 30 Drive In, it doesn't mean you won't. Check out all the outstanding reviews on Google and Yelp. read more

Great food. Quick service My favorite is always good. I like the location too. The sun isn't in your eyes. read more

So good we had to fork the nacho toppings to see where the chips began. Also had the street tacos both with the charred Serrano peppers, can't recommend them enough! We will be back for sure! read more

Okay it is a little somewhat of a run-down drive in. Reminded me of some places my dad would take me on a cross country trip on Route 66. (If you're under 35, google it!). But the food was very good and the service was fast and with a smile. I tried the torta with a chocolate shake and would do it again. Off the beaten path, but worth it. read more

An actual Drive-In where you pick a spot and someone comes to give a menu and take your order. There's a good variety of food from burgers, sandwiches, chicken fingers, mozzarella sticks, burritos and quesadillas and more. Meals got a choice of fries or tater tots and you get good ol "fry sauce" to dip in. The prices are a bit high ($10-ish for the chicken quesadilla, as example) but you definitely get what you pay for: delicious, filling food...and in the case of the quesadillas, they have got to be my FAVORITE chicken quesadillas in town. Thick. Cheesy. Nice sized chunks of delicious chicken within it. It takes a bit for the food to get ready, so definitely come over when you have time to relax in your car (or at one if the outdoor tables). read more

Well worth the trip off the interstate! We stopped at 9:00 pm taking the chance that something would be open on a Tuesday night. The restaurant was quite just before closing. They made fresh tortillas for our street tacos. Both chicken and beef are flavorful. The home made hot sauce had great flavor and heat! Had to come back through Mountian Home and detoured again to stop and eat. This time at a civilized 6:00pm. Again we both enjoyed our food and will stop again when we come back in two weeks. It is good to note that there is no inside seating. We have found the service very accommodating they really work hard and are always on the go. read more

Good hamburgersGood fries. Great shakes (not too thick & not too thin...smooth in that extra-long straw!). I had the mushroom burger & mint chocolate chip shake, my husband had the cheeseburger & chocolate shake. When we rolled up, the Open sign was lit, but it looked closed. Parked under the vintage drive-thru port and knocked on the sliding window when we walked up to it, ordered and ate outside at one of the rod-iron tables. Yummy & filling! When coming through Mountain Home again, we'd partake again read more

I spent $21 for two large sodas and two burrito "meals" that come with fries. 2 sodas, 2 burritos, and 2 fries. I started on the fries and drove across town to deliver the second meal to another person. On the drive, I peeled back the foil and started on my burrito. It was refried beans, rice, cheese, and sour cream. The foil and the tortilla were hot; however, the beans were cold, to the point that the cheese hadn't even melted. There were crunchy uncooked pieces of rice, too. I took 4 bites and decided that this was not worth the price paid and returned to the restaurant for a refund. I will not return. read more

Yet again, Yelp comes through in a pinch as we're traveling through town and would like a good simply meal in a local place. Of note, it's definitely a Drive In, so bad on us, we got out as the waitress came up to our car to take our order. There are a few tables at which to sit, but I think the expectation is that you eat in your vehicle. We had a couple of burgers with fries which were great. It may not be much to look at from the outside, but the food is delicious. read more

Visiting the area and looked for a local option rather than a chain. Picked up a beef super burrito and fries for the Mrs and I had the mushroom burger and fries. The burrito was massive and the burger was sized a bit bigger than something you'd get at 5 guys or a smash burger place. Fries were better than average and the burger was very good and not greasy at all. My wife really enjoyed the burrito and said it was full of flavor. Only thing of note is it was a bit heavy on the beans so take note if you're not a bean lover. Ambiance...Dine in options are available but there are a decent amount of birds you'd have to contend with as it's an outside seating area but you can eat in your car in a covered car port. Will likely stop by once more before leaving. read more

Fun little place ! Great food and service. It does take time to get your meal but it is well worth it.

We found this gem on Yelp while in search of a quick lunch. What a pleasant surprise. It's a real drive-in, they come to your car and take your order. We ordered the small taco basket with beef and a chicken quesadilla. The tacos were delish, packed with tender chopped steak and plenty of fresh cilantro and onions. The chicken quesadilla was crispy, cheesey, and filled with thigh meat (so flavorful. Lola, the owner, explained to us that they keep their meat selections simple in order to provide the freshest meals. She also recommended a few places to visit locally. Overall a very good experience and we'll be back. read more

After dry camping for four days we were dying for a good hamburger and Highway 30 did not disappoint. My jalapeño burger was juicy and spicy just how I like it. I chose tator tots but my husband and son got fries and they were all cooked golden and crispy. This place was a great stop before heading to Sun Valley and the service was friendly and our meal came out so quick. Stop by and you will not regret it. read more

Hwy 30 Drive-In serves fast-food; burgers, fries/tots, and shakes. I like this place; it has the 50's curbside nostalgia. You park your car, the servers walks up to take your order, and delivers your order to your window. They do have tables outside as well. Don't be discouraged by all of the other old closed-down motels, stores, and restaurants in the vicinity. --HWY 30 Drive-In is open for business. Stop by to try their milkshakes and help keep this small town alive with your hard-earned money. read more

Had the chicken super burrito tonight. Excellent authentic Mexican and very good prices. We will be back next time we are in town.

My husband was hungry, and I have wanted to try this place out. Reviews were tempting, so we followed the great reviews to this little stop on the Highway. BEST CHOICE EVER!! Found our new 'to go' place in Mountain Home. You all have been holding out. BEST service, BEST food, BEST prices. You can afford to treat your family out on these prices, plus the fun of an old car hop, minus the short skirt and skates. read more
