Great food, best pancakes we’ve had in Utah so far!! Friendly people. Nice atmosphere. Good music!

We’re from out of town and chose Hot Rod at random. Glad we did! The food was great! We got our own sodas the instant We walked in–so nice on a hot summer day. We ordered a Bacon Cheeseburger and a Monte Cristo with good fries and onion rings–no extra cost to sub onion rings for fries! Ask for their made-in-house ranch dressing– it’s the best I’ve had from any restaurant! The staff was friendly and happy to help. Just a single lockable restroom, but it was clean and nice. I loved the old rock n’ roll music they played.

I want to do 4 stars but from my personal experience, 3 is the best I can give. There’s a nice small mom and pop feel to this place. It’s got a cute 50’s vibe with the seats and the paintings all over the walls.

The name caught my eye as I was exploring around the south side of Utah lake. Small Town Diners always seem to have to best food… Hot Rod Diner does not disappoint! The mushroom swiss burger was seriously fantastic! I’ll stop here again for sure next time I’m in this neck of the woods.

Good Food. Good People. We’ve been coming here for years and NEVER had any issues. The instructions to order are CLEAR and on the front of the menus. Old school decor. I’m always greeted with a happy, friendly smile. These guys and gals work their butts off. Food and vibr is ALWAYS amazing here. The BLT and cheese fries are my favorites, the ribeye steak is my fiancée and the kids always like their options! And Breakfast the country fried steak and that pepper gravy is AMAZING!!!!!

Really great food! The older gentleman were very friendly and welcoming! The younger guy working was a bit rude but the food was great! Some of the reviews mentioned cleanliness, I can say when we came it was very clean. We were there before the dinner rush though. I will 100% be coming back! Btw the Motz sticks were amazing. No marinara sauce which was fine with us.

Have you ever pulled around the back of a restaurant to get the the parking lot only to see one car there and go, “hmm, this might be interesting”? Well I’m n this case it turned out to be a good surprise and then some. It’s a 50s and 60s themed place that the food was tasty. Staff was friendly and everything was mad fresh. This included the Onion Rings that was very tasty. I had a new addition to the menu that was a Pastrami Burger.

Fast Service, fun atmosphere! Food is spot on as far as specific add extra this or take off that… Prices are between $4 and $12 plate and plenty to choose from including breakfast anytime! Great selection of drinks, fountain, bottled, coffee, or tea. Booth seating. Plenty of dipping sauces, ranch fry sauce, ketchup. Great oldies tunes playing on the speakers and matches the interior decor of the restaurant.

We should have walked back out. The restaurant is filthy. It’s a self serve diner. There was a woman, a boy and the cook working, but only the cook did anything. We walked in right after another couple. The received their meal right away. Our meals waited until after the woman working and another man were served their meals AND they finished eating. I checked on when our food would be ready, the cook pointed to hashbrowns cooking. We waited another 15 min after that. Although it tasted good, the food was overdone on one side. As we were leaving, I saw 4 tables piled high with dishes, unswept floors, the grill had grease soaked towels underneath, the restroom was filthy. DON’T GO, it’s not good enough food to take the risk.
