Tiny ass long burger $8.75
Amanda S.

Not sure why I tried it out after reading the negative reviews. I guess I'm a sucker for giving chances and high hopes. I love old school drive-thrus and their classic greasy burgers, less-than-unhealthy milkshakes and nostalgic ambiance. You don't visit these places with high expectations, and that's what typically makes them okay. Not with Wheeler's, I am very sad to say. I'm waiting for my husband while he does his engineering magic and whatnot off Caldwell Blvd when all the sudden I get a craving for a burger. Wheeler's is 6 minutes down the road so away I go. The line is long, as expected. I order the Wheeler's Special (hand patted long burger served with special sauce, lettuce, onion, pickle, tomato, and American cheese with choice of french fries, tator tots or homemade onion rings & fountain drink, $8.75). This is their signature item. It's basically a burger in a hot dog bun. Nicely put, I was not impressed. My already low expectations were not met. First off, there was hardly ANY meat! For $8.75 you'd think I'd get a decent amount. Or enough so I could tell it was there. The patty was smashed down so thin, I could hardly taste it while being overwhelmed by bread and whatever the heck their burger sauce is made out of (it's really nothing special, just fry sauce). It was also so small! The tots and fry sauce were good but that alone doesn't warrant the ridiculous price for this abomination. One star because that's as low as Yelp lets me go and another because it filled the gap. What a waste of money, time and calories!!! :(

Chicken sandwich corn dog

Corn dogs are good. But my chicken sandwich for $5 was disappointing , little bits of coated chicken & extra Mayo wasn't added Our order of curly fries not in bag when Grubhub bought. So pretty sad dinner it was & also fry sauce it appeared but it was thousand island dressing

Fry sauce
Maddie S.

Tried this for dinner tonight. Wasn't impressed at all. My burger was soaked in Mayo and soggy and couldn't enjoy it. I only asked for it on it just not so much I didn't need the whole tub. My fry sauce for my fries was good just was not even half full. Good shakes though just let down. :(

You will wait a while for your food but the onion rings cannot be beat. The burgers are great too and I love their flavour burst ice cream.

For those wondering how they are operating during this pandemic, we saw only one worker wearing gloves, and no one is wearing masks.

It was about 1:45 pm on a Friday, and the place was fairly crowded. We were sat at a small booth for two, not my favorite table, but understandable that they would want to save their tables and booths for four for larger parties. It's very loud, hard to talk, so in tha sense the small booth we were in, set apart from the main seating area, was better for my wife and I to talk. Our server was Yulia, and she was delightful. Very nice, efficient, and attentive. Great service! We both had the classic burger, mine with the sharp cheddar it comes with, my wife sans cheese. 100% Wagyu beef, and cooked very nicely at medium. The bun was large and soft, very tasty and great texture. The fries were delicious; crispy and well seasoned, just great. They have a fry sauce that tasted like it had a bit of horseradish. I really liked it. Prices are very reasonable. In fact, I just had a burger at a nice restaurant in downtown Boise last week that had a smaller patty and bun, and cost $3 more. We will definitely be back to Holy Cow.

I kind of consider myself an In-and-Out Burger aficionado since I've eaten there for almost 40…read moreyears in California. Once here in Idaho, I wasn't as inclined to visit due to my fear that it wouldn't taste the same and the Idaho-shaming of visiting any location. However, I had an overwhelming desire for "animal style" well done fries and after a lot of begging, convinced my husband to come (this was not an easy task). We arrived around 4:30 pm and the dining room was roughly 1/2 full with a robust wrap in drive-thru. We were greeted by a friendly cashier who quickly took our order, then repeated it back perfectly. The kitchen was in a fervor, bustling to satisfy all the orders (really, a hard working team). We obtained our drink cups and the large, typical drink station was nicely stocked with a nice array of soft drinks to choose from. The odd thing to me is that whenever I've eaten at any other location in the past, I think the longest I've ever waited for my meal has been maybe 9 minutes, tops. No matter the time of day or night. We waited 23 minutes for our meals. It seemed that drive-thru is priority, then to-go, then dine-in. The animal style fries were pretty good, though I'm used to it being slathered with more sauce. Thankfully, I was able to get a few sauce packets and gleefully doused to my delight. However, the bun of my burger was so over toasted! The buns were actually hard and crunchy. I'm not used to that. The burger tasted like before but it was dry and overcooked as well. The lettuce, onions, tomatoes and cheese were very fresh and flavorful. My husband had the same experience with his burger as I did. Tables were not wiped down and the condiment station was out of almost everything when we got there. They didn't refill all the cups, chilis, etc. until right before we left. I really wanted to love my visit, but after this experience, and all the convincing to entice my husband there with this result, it's unlikely we will be back.

To be honest, I have never eaten a meal at Freddy's…read more I am sure the food is good and it is definitely a place I would go to for a top-quality burger. The reason we keep going to Freddy's is for the custard. If you have never had custard, think ice cream but only creamier. I am addicted to it. I don't think I will ever look at ice cream the same way again after having something soooo much better. There are only 2 flavors, vanilla & chocolate but, when you add the extras or get one of their signature choices (the brownie one is my go to) you have everything you need for a good time. Beyond my custard obsession, I need to make sure I give kudos to the staff. They are so friendly and attentive that you feel like a special guest. That and the food makes Freddy's a place that has to be on your list if you want to treat yourself to a great meal.

We really don't have a favorite Freddy's location because the food is consistently great, but we…read moreprefer Nampa only because it's so central to where we want to go and this is the only location in the valley that actually gives you a large serving of fries when you upgrade. We received a friendly greeting upon arriving and were quickly able to order. Love the Veteran's discount and using the app is easy breezy. Ordered the single instead of a double California burger combo to save a few calories, but there was no change in price. Hubby had the single as well, standard Freddy's burger with large fries and drink. Most of the booths were taken but we managed to grab one after someone left. Most tables didn't look wiped down but we assumed it was due to lunch rush. Food came out quickly. The burgers were stacked with fresh and crispy lettuce. Mine had a stack of onions and tomatoes that were sliced and stacked. The fries were cooked to utter perfection, heavily seasoned (more than usual), but I loved it. Few things occurred that forced me to give a lower rating than I typically would give: 1. The regular fry sauce-for some odd reason we kept finding packs that had this oily, spongy orange slick on top of each sauce when we opened them. We thought it was just separation, but once we stirred the sauce it just made it worse. We had to open 5 packs until we found one we could use, but even then it was this odd dark orange color. Tasted fine but it was just unusual. 2. Looks like they removed Diet Pepsi from the fountain? Seriously?!? There's two Pepsi fountains, Pepsi zero and cherry Pepsi but no diet. I live for my Diet Pepsi and it makes me feel a shred less guilty for splurging on fast food. For the love of all that's holy, whyyyyyyyy?!?
