Went in ordered the fish and chips to go for & 7.00. Talk about lousy !! It was nothing more than a fish stick. Awful. I paid with a ten and the change (it came to 7.42) and the gal asked me if I needed the change. ?? Huh? I tipped a buck but for a pick up it was a little outrageous to expect a 3.50 tip..I won't be back. The Main st Burger down the street is top notch for fast food. I won't be fooled again.

Burgers are Horrible, but the Onion rings are the best. Fried Zucchini is very good. Fries are ok too. But skip the miserable burgers, just order sides.

Went there on Sunday afternoon 1 hour before closing. Our first visit and of course they are famous for their onion rings. The girl goes on to tell us they were OUT of onion rings. Really. Not only that our orders were wrong when we got home. Food was fair. Service was good. We not recommend.

Family wanted to go since we haven't been for s long time due to moving. Definitely not as good as it used to be. Sloppy burgers, tasteless grilled ham & cheese, not sure what shakes are made of but they are almost watery - does not taste or feel like ice cream. Quite disappointing.

Went here for lunch during lunch hour, people were nice, got the Big Hungry and it was good and fresh. And they bring you the good to your car, what more do you need?!

This is the burger stand I grew up on. It's not solely nostalgia that keeps Me going there. The food is very good, and proceed reasonably. And, as always, it's the local option in an overly corporate world, so it's the option of conscience.

Used to love this place, would go there 2 or 3 times a month. I'm not sure whats been going on in the last year, but I won't be going there anymore. The servers ask if you would like to leave a tip when you pay. Isn't it my choice to tip based on your service. I tried to call in an order and they asked me to call back in a couple of minutes. They seem to have a large turn over which is sad because I loved their food

We are huge fans of drive-in diners. I'm basing this review off of comparing it to other drive-ins in the area, like The Golden Wheel and Roe-Anns. Based on the reviews, we ordered milkshakes, the homemade onion rings (with a side of fry sauce to be sure), and two cheeseburgers.Milkshakes: Good. Worth the price? Heck no. Homemade onion rings: Fabulous! Worth the price? Absolutely. The fry sauce was fantastic also.Cheeseburgers: Not good. Worth the price? Not even. The burgers barely had anything on them, they were smashed and mine had almost fallen apart before I unwrapped it. They were $4.50 per burger. They tasted and looked closer to a $3.00 burger. For the price, this is not worth going to.

Hungry Onion was as good as it has always been.... I had not been there for many many years and it was still the same great friendly fast service... The food tasted the same as it did many many years ago when I used to work there... It was hot and delicious... So yummy! if you have never been to the Hungry Onion you better go because sadly they will be closing their doors at the end of the year... Many wounderful memories at this place from days gone by....

The service was great but the food was really low quality and kinda expensive for being such. I expected a more handformed burger patty then a frozen preformed. The onion rings were way better than the fries.

Always great quick service drive up or sit out at the picnic table and the best fried zuchinni in town. No indoor dining but worth it. Burgers are A++++ and you cant beat milkshakes and scotch n sodas.

I had been avoiding the place for awhile, I even thought about doing a bad review they had gone downhill so badly in the last year or so but no.I went again out of nostalgia when I heard they were closing and was disappointed again, this is not the place that I remember from the 80's and 90's. It would be nice if it got new owners like the Fanci Freeze and Big Bun did in Boise but alas the last independant drive in in Meridian is going under and i will have to drive aways for my black raspberry milkshakes.

Hungry Onion has been a landmark in Meridian for more than 50 years. I have great memories of this place and it will be a sad day on 12/28/19 when they close the door and walk up window forever. They have the best Scotch & Sodas and the best ice cream cones. If you haven't been there, get there before they are gone.

$15 for Meh...So disappointed, was really hoping this place would be that hole in the wall spot. It's not. Seemed like everything was Costco frozen and thrown on the stove, or dropped in the deep fryer.Still curious about the fish and chips and fried chicken, but doubt I'll be back

Had a Peanut Butter milkshake on Saturday and it was terrible. My husband thinks they ran out of their normal peanut butter they typically use. This is very disappointing considering how much we enjoy their milkshakes. Went back yesterday and had a chocolate milkshake and it was delicious. They redeemed themselves. Wish the staff was friendlier. They seem to lose the good ones too quickly.
