"The Nook is such a cool hidden spot in Pocatello! It’s inside an old train depot, which gives it a really fun vibe. The burgers were super yummy, and the service felt really personal—like they genuinely care about each guest. It wasn’t too busy when we went, so it was nice and relaxed. Heads up: there’s no sign outside, which can feel a little confusing at first. Just trust Google Maps, walk into the building, and you’ll find it right there. Totally worth the stop!"

"The Nook is probably the best burger I have had in my life, about 40 years, I had a pastrami burger the first time a couple months ago and have been dreaming about it since. I went back to Pocatello again and had another one today, and WOW! it was even better than I remembered! The owner was awesome and friendly, I can’t recommend it enough if you love a good burger and are in Pocatello don’t miss this place you won’t regret it. Everything was fresh, delicious and cooked perfectly. The portions are generous as well, it’s the best flavor and bang for your buck. Worth every penny I’m serious! If you’re still reading this review just go already don’t wait! Sorry I didn’t take any pictures it was too delicious to stop eating for a pic."

"Great food, nice staff, cool atmosphere. Was in town for work and tried a few places, nothing was that great. Out of every place I went, this was by far the best place. Solid burgers no matter where you are from. Good quality tasty food. If you are visiting go here. We tried the Sandpiper and Melted Magic as well. Both were let downs."

"Update: We tried the burgers and let me tell you, that was the best burgers we have had in over 20 years! I had the Mushroom Swiss and the only better one I have had was in Wisconsin but that is cheese country and had to top. They used fresh mushrooms instead of canned an it was on point. My husband had the Pastrami Burger, he added Jalapeños and mushrooms. They used quality thick sliced pastrami and he was in heaven. He said he will compare all Pastrami burgers to UT from now on. Definitely is our burger place from now on! The best fish and chips we have had in a long time. Super fresh and the portion was huge. You get five., yes five. Delicious pieces. The coating ratio was spot on and the fries were delicious! Definitely, the spot to go. We will update you as soon as we try the burgers!"
