Milt's is THE place to go if you want a milkshake while you're in Moab. I think it's been here forever, or at least it gives off long-term energy. And it's not on the main drag, which is kind of charming-you'll find it a couple blocks away in a more residential area. You'll walk up to the window, place your order and then wait for your number to be called when your food is ready. If you come during peak time, you're going to wait a bit. Grab a free cup and fill it with water at the water station next to the window and hang tight. It's worth the wait. I opted for tots instead of fries and thoroughly loved them. There were more than I could finish (and I can eat a lot!), so perhaps share an order with someone if you're not terribly hungry. The burgers are also fantastic. read more

Wowza, too bad the new ownership is killing the good reputation it once had. This was the place we & so many others came to for a worthwhile treat of a good old shake, malt or burger. Stroke the burger OFF your list & you'd be doing yourself a favor. Sweet pickle instead of dill pickle, half the amount of beef or bison meat, bad bread. No one at our shared table finished their burger. The malt was done fine. Good soap in the bathroom, didn't chince on that yet. The root beer was more than half ice. These new owners are losing return customers left & right & everyone at the table, strangers & friends, agreed this is tragic. The coffee shop across the way is awesome & I hope the degradation at Milts doesn't hurt them, too. Go get an exemplary coffee there if you're jonesing for quality taste. read more

I've been back here a number of times over the years and thought I'd update my earlier review to say it's the same great place. It just says Moab, hiking, biking, off roading. It's where you want to go after a day of doing those things. Solid burgers, fries and shakes in a great outdoor setting. Old school, just the way it should be. read more

Milt's is insanely delicious!!! Blew us away with great tasting food and a fun outdoor vibe. The Patty Melt ($10) was the star, the Swiss cheese was gooey, the burger patty moist, the mushroom and onions that perfect flavor pop. I'll be dreaming about it! The Gringo Burger ($11) was also crazy tasty, the brisket was soft and tender, the meat and cheese complemented the mix so well. We shared the tater tots ($5), they were perfection - crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside. One order was plenty for 2 people. We couldn't help but get their small shakes ($5 each), I got peanut butter malt and my husband coffee malt. Mine was better hehe, but they were both thick, creamy, yummy. The patio is dog friendly and you can see the clouds during sunset. It gets busy, be ready to wait in line and 10+ min for your food but it'll come out fresh and hot. Service was great too. Loved this local spot, 100% recommend!! read more

Milt's Stop & Eat - Exterior - Fast Food Near Me - Moab, Utah

I'm not one to leave a bad review but we use to come here every year, multiple times during our weeks vacation. Was hands down the best burger. We went this past week as we were very excited to get our favorite burger. We were very disappointed and didn't even finish our burger. The buns were different and cold and the pickles changed. We also order a cheese burger and charged for it but got a hamburger. Was so long of a wait we ignored the issue and moved on. Please go back to the OG burger you once had, I'm sure we would all enjoy it better. Also, you can't here your number being called at the tables, don't remember this being an issue before. read more

My friends and I wanted a quick lunch after a morning of outdoor activities. This was an option and since it seemed like a beloved staple in Moab, we had to try it. It is a little burger spot with a few benches and a parking lot. Bacon cheeseburger (4.5/5): Can't go wrong with a bacon cheeseburger. It was your classic burger with lettuce, onion, pickle, and mustard. However, I was surprised at how much mustard was on it. The patty was tender and bread was fluffy. Pesto cheese fries (4/5): I saw this on the menu and was so intrigued. I've never had something like it so why not order it. It was literally wedge potatoes topped with pesto and melted slices of cheese. Surprisingly, it worked. It felt like I was eating pasta. This was a great lunch spot. It is in an unassuming, quiet area just off the main street of Moab. Food was good and the price was good. read more

5* every time we visit-burgers, fries and shakes are all exceptional. Fast and friendly service, lovely outdoor seating on a nice day.

We had some time to kill before heading to the airport and a craving for shakes and Milt's was the perfect stop to end out our trip. We both got strawberry milkshakes and they hit the spot. They're known for their thicker, old fashioned milkshakes which is exactly what we were looking for. They've got a nice patio to enjoy your ice cream on and service was quick despite them being busy. read more

Milt's is a local gem that you can NOT miss on your trip to Moab. We were here less than a week and came here two of the days, we couldn't help but come back after the first time. This place has been around for decades and is the perfect walk up window with a variety of very affordable, quality fast food options. It's clearly a staple among both locals and tourists, with a pet friendly patio with shade and lots of space and plenty of parking. It's a little out of the main part of town but definitely worth meandering over. I got a milkshake ($4 for small, $6 for large) and the pesto cheese fries ($5) with their fry sauce both times and was impressed with the quality for the price. I don't think I've seen a milkshake this cheap anywhere and they have over a dozen flavors you can choose from, up to 2 in any shake with no extra charge. As much as I loved this place, I will say that they were a bit slow with getting the food out and some people ended up waiting a lot longer than others. They also skimped on the pesto on my fries (there was almost none) but they were more than happy to add more for me when I asked at the window, which is also where you can ask for their special fry sauce that you don't want to miss. read more

On their website, Milt's Stop & Eat proudly declares that they partner with local food producers, and that their burgers are fresh ground and grass fed. We certainly weren't expecting a classic burger joint like this in a small tourist town! Bacon Cheeseburger ($7) - Very messy burger here. A ton of ketchup and mustard spread on the bottom bun, followed by lettuce and onion, and a small mountain of what seem to be homemade pickles. The pickles are not sliced consistently, so some pieces are paper thin, while others are over a quarter inch. They are crunchy and have an especially strong tang, which, when combined with the acidic condiments, makes each bite have a sourness that overpowers all the other flavors in the burger. I'd almost suggest to eat the burger upside down to allow the cheese and meat to hit the tongue before all the acid. With the meat - the patty is pretty generously sized but doesn't seem to be charred all that much, making the patty a bit anemic. I didn't get a lot of beefy flavor, but this may be due to the grass-fed nature of the beef. There's a slice of American cheese on top, which is only melted in the center, leaving the edges and corners still in original form. I honestly couldn't say how much bacon there is included - these are very thinly sliced and reminded me of the fully cooked microwavable bacon. They completely get lost in the burger and I actually regret getting the bacon cheeseburger over the normal cheeseburger. Everything is on a soft and pliable bun, toasted on the griddle. If I get a burger at Milt's again, I would probably ask to either omit the pickles or ask for them on the side. They are way too powerful for the sandwich. (3/5) Fries ($3) - Served piping hot directly from the fryer. They pump these out continuously and don't drain them all that well, resulting in a layer of oil on the bottom of the paper serving boat that soaks into the bottom most fries. Otherwise, the fries on top aren't soggy at all and have a light crisp on the outside combined with a fluffy inside. They are interestingly shaped into potato dippers, which isn't seen too often. They are lightly salted and generally delicious. They look homemade given the size differences between the dippers, but could also be Lamb-Weston given how nicely crisp they are. (4/5) Pesto Cheese Fries ($5) - These are the same fries as above but layered with cheese and pesto. The cheese is generously applied, but is melted together into a tight matrix that hardens up almost like glue. The pesto works well with the fries and cheese. Unlike the regular order of fries, the pesto fries aren't crisp at all and instead fully fluffy like they've been steamed. The cheese is a little suspicious with how well it's melted without any browning - a peek behind the counter shows some microwave action. Regardless of cook method, it's still tasty. (4/5) Milkshake, Large, Malt Powder + Oreo ($6) - This shake starts super thick when it first comes out and can't really be sucked up through the straw. After letting it sit for 5 or 10 minutes, it started getting soft enough to drink. It's a pretty classic milkshake, pretty solid overall. The oreo is well distributed, but I couldn't really detect any malt for the first half of the shake. The malt starts getting more and more concentrated as the liquid level goes down. That's because the powder actually isn't dispersed well in the milkshake at all - instead it all settles on the bottom into a large glob and isn't blended in at all into the ice cream. I probably wouldn't get the malt again, but I would the oreo for sure! (4/5) Bathrooms - Single unisex room in the back behind the building I visited again a couple of days later for more: Cheeseburger ($6) - Milt's is very inconsistent with their burgers. I guess it depends on who is the grill master at the time. Unlike the burger the other day, this one only includes a couple of pickle slices and has a distinct lack of mustard and ketchup on the bottom, making the burger overall a little dry. This one is completely on the opposite spectrum as the previous burger in terms of moisture. Still, due to the lack of overpowering acidity, it's a bit more pleasing to eat. (4/5) Fries ($3) - This time, the fries are drained well with no oil puddle soaking on the bottom of the tray. (5/5) Bowl of Chili ($5) - I believe this chili is made in house with the leftover burgers and brisket, both of which are mixed into the chili in pretty generous amounts. In addition to the meat, there are tender pinto beans, tomatoes, and green bell peppers. They give the option to add diced onion and cheese on top. This chili tastes like a classic chili and is delicious, not overly salted. It's chock full of ingredients, probably more solid than liquid. (4/5) Milt's is a very solid burger joint, although a bit inconsistent. The prices are pretty reasonable, and I'd visit again in a heartbeat whenever I'm in Moab. read more

I was solo traveling through Moab this summer, and this was by far my favorite diner and food experience in Moab. I couldn't tell if the gentleman I talked to was the manager or owner, but he was incredibly friendly! We sat and chatted the whole time I was eating and he gave me the scoop on the best of Moab and where to hangout and see while I was in town. It was one of those core memories you make while traveling. I came in for a veggie burger but after chatting I had a veggie patty melt per this nice gentleman's recommendation. It was delicious! I also really loved the fries - I have never had them where they were curled and crispy before. It was a really great place to stop and eat! I would highly recommend! read more

Plain and simple it was a delicious burger with green chili, I am from new mexico and we are known for our green chili cheeseburgers. The green chili was mild, but I totally expected that... But man what a delicious burger, the fresh cut fries, wedges, were a pleasant surprise... The staff we're beyond nice and courteous. An awesome throwback to when I was a kid and used to eat it at these little roadside burger places... prices are very reasonable and a pretty good sized menu for a diner of this size. No drive thru you get down and order and either sit outside or in your vehicle, or take it with you.. A must try you will not be disappointed... read more

We stopped by after a day of hiking in Arches NP and this hit the spot. You order at the window and everything was ready in 5 minutes. There is seating right outside the restaurant. The elk cheeseburger and fried bacon and egg cheeseburger were both fantastic. The fries were a little bland and the onion rings were crispy but you didn't get a lot. Go for the burgers and milkshakes! read more

A must stop in Utah. I was blown away by the quality of food for the prices. I paid 9 dollars (plus tip) for a hefty serving of delicious pesto cheese fries. Could've added a bit more pesto but if you asked, they'd be happy to help you out. I've come here twice now during my week in Moab. The first milkshake I got was the brownie milkshake, but today's malt cherry milkshake took the cake. Service is friendly and quick, no matter the size of the line. Great picnic tables to enjoy your food at. I love Milt's! read more

It was a nice place to stop an enjoy a burger a shake. The burgers were solid and shakes were good, I had small chocolate peanut butter and my wife had peach. Both were quite good, she said she could have used a little more peach. We shared an onion ring order and only got four rings but they were decent size, would have expected a few more for $5. Still a recommend in our opinion. read more

A Blast From the Past! Great burgers and better 50's ambience -- sit under a tree at a picnic table where John Wayne walked over from his motel when filming in Monument Valley. Great fries are essential for a burger place and they're great here. Just obey the sign -- Please Don't Climb the Tree. read more

A classic burger joint serving fresh ground and grass fed burgers, what a surprise. We ordered BBQ brisket sandwich, Elk cheeseburger, bacon cheeseburger, fries, onion rings and milkshakes. The burgers/sandwich were nicely cooked and very tasty. Fries were a surprise to me, they are more like potato slices. The Milkshake was so thick that we had a hard time to get it through the straws right away, but it eventually melted and tasted great - old school classic milkshake. Overall, great food for very reasonable prices. read more

Delicious old fashioned style hamburgers, fries and milkshakes. The rodeo jalapeño burger is fantastic. The fries are more like potato wedges but thinner, and also delicious. Best part was the vanilla milkshake. It's off the main road and worth it to stop by. read more

My husband, a friend, and I stopped by here with our dog after a busy day of hiking to Corona Arch, fishing along the Colorado River, and exploring Arches NP and Milt's completely hit the spot! I got a grilled chicken sandwich and it had so much flavor with a fresh bun! My mouth was watering while eating it and I can't wait to come back the next time we come down to visit Moab. It was a busy afternoon but the staff was friendly, the food was affordable, and we only had to wait 10-15 minutes for our food with a large party ahead of us. As another plus, it's also got a big lawn with picnic tables that is dog friendly. Do yourself a favor and stop here-you'll be glad that you did! read more

Excellent burgers and drinks! Tater tots were exceptional! Made to order but quick! Shaded picnic tables made a nice lunch area...

It's burgers made the old-fashioned way with amazing side and shakes. And, it's the right kinda comfort food when you come off the trails in Moab and you just want something delicious and filling for not a lot of money. We had been told that we should check out Milt's when we first arrived in Moab. It took us a few days, but we finally made it... and, it was packed! There were so many burger choices with exotic names like the Blue Moon Cheeseburger, the Gringo Cheeseburger, or the Rodeo Burger along with Elk burgers..! We kept it simple and got cheeseburgers... with bacon. You top it as you like it. And, it was all good. We opted for onion rings and tator tots, fresh, crispy, yum... FYI, they're made to share, there were so many. We weren't a fan of the fry sauce, but not so much that I'd take a star off just for that... The shakes: thick and rich and so cold and good. I didn't realize until later that you can combine up to three different flavors, so I went for a simple root beer shake. Hubby got his typical plain vanilla and loved it. Service was friendly and quick. Understand they get your shakes out before your meal so we were a little confused when we they called our number and we were just handed our shakes, but then we were told our meals were coming. There are a couple of stools inside the small diner area, but most people sit outside on the many picnic benches around the restaurant. Definitely a place to come to over and over again when you're in Moab... we'll be back... there's too many menu items I wanted to try. read more

Amazing after a long hike. Classic and tasty. The milkshake might be the best I've ever tasted.

Great customer service and hamburger! Poorly presented though with well below average cheese (not typical American or cheddar for sure) and greasy wilted lettuce and soggy thin pathetic tomato slice. (They should check out how Whataburger puts together a hamburger). Fries are more of the steak fry but hot and freshly fried. Not worth nearly $15 read more

Shakes are amazing too! I got a double elk burger with blue cheese, it was so freaking good! If you like the taste of elk you'll love it.
